The USPS is being threatened with massive layoffs and privatization. I made these postcards which—when mailed—will be seen by mail handlers, scanners, carriers and the recipient. I just printed 3,000 more. Order cheaply from halfletterpress.com or message me your email for the PDF to print them.

today i’m thinking about the trees at my local park, 50 feet tall, how they are sick and weak from climate impacts and the city is cutting a whole row of them down. i love every tree and i am so thankful and so sorry we couldn’t know each other better.

Flip your center in US history from white people to Black and Indigenous people, look at the Exclusion Acts, and understand the US isn't sliding towards fascism. It is reverting to its original state. And your utopian dreams about European comfort, freedom, etc? Yeah, take a harder look.
