The voters spoke up in 2020 and chose that Donald Trump must change his shirt. It ends there. Nothing will fundamentally change. Just nothing. That's because washing your shirt is not fundamental.

I just received a piece of junk mail from CREDO Mobile, which is an unnecessary waste of paper when they already send emails multiple times per week. If they absolutely must, they can at least request read receipts for their promotional emails and only send out junk mail to those who are not reading the emails. This better be recycled paper and not printed with a laser printer, which uses microplastic dust made from petroleum and that increases the difficulty of paper recycling. Again, they are offering free e-waste production for any phones under $400. Perhaps they should look into the working conditions of Foxconn, Pegatron, and Agbogbloshie before rushing to sell more Apple iPhone SE's and 11's.

Canon chose to increase plastic waste and frustration just to increase profits by switching from individual ink tanks on the TS6320 to plastic chunks on the TS6420, with combined colors, far more plastic per milliliter, and disposable print heads that are replaced every time. Replacing the print heads every time the ink is depleted is like replacing a laser printer every time the toner runs out.

Printing is a shocking waste problem. Not to mention that printers can be programmed to use unneeded cyan in the black to make you run out of one coloured ink faster so that you have to replace the cartridge before you run out of all colours. They often sell the printers cheaper than the ink, giving printers little value (selling them at a loss to make profit on ink) is only encouraging the throw away world. Giving a big plastic printer little value encourages consumers to throw away their old one to get the latest model. This needs to change.

Could it be a case of planned obsolescence? Printer manufacturers are infamous for including things like circuits that create an artificial upper limit to the number of pages that can be printed, even though the machine works fine. Maybe this is a similar but less obvious case?

More than 12 million people are unemployed. Food banks have been overwhelmed. The country is on the verge of mass evictions. And the true death toll of the pandemic is a staggering, heartbreaking 345,000. We could do so much to address this spiraling disaster. In fact, House Democrats passed a coronavirus relief bill more than six months ago—but Mitch McConnell ignored it. And now, he's blown up bipartisan negotiations entirely by introducing his own bill that offers tax deductions for corporate meals but offers no relief to working Americans at all. McConnell is inflicting economic ruin on millions of Americans for no reason other than he is a cruel and petty man. He has no interest in working with Democrats, as his actions this week have shown. This is why we must break his malignant majority.

Now 33 out of 100 voting letters completed, with horrible anxiety and stress from not having stamps even several days extremely long after when they were supposed to be purchased. I'm an awful pile of rubbish because we don't have the spendable money to buy stamps when most people don't have this problem. Even if they ship tomorrow on the SAME day of purchase at earliest possible date now, which has like close to 0% chance of even happening, since there is a close to 0% chance the stamps will ever be able to be purchased in the foreseeable future, they would need to ship the same day and only take 2 days, then be opened immediately on the same day of delivery before 5 PM. I will never not feel horrible again if we can't buy stamps, and that is most certainly to occur. I should die.

Tonight the first batch of 20 Senate runoff letters was completed finally. The next 20 were printed with the Canon iP3000 and the corresponding envelopes still need to be prepared. We're a little behind but doing well. It's almost too late to buy stamps, and entering a building to buy stamps is too dangerous thanks to Donald Trump. If we can get stamps, it would be a wasted opportunity to not continue preparing letters, but if not, then we're just continuing to waste more resources on paper, ink, tape, and time that may not be able to be used. Even though this round has been much smoother than the Dump Trump round, it is just that the concrete wall is at the end. At some time it will be too late, irreversible failure. 80 stamps needed. I need 50 people to chip in ($)2. It's just like writing 4 letters yourself, but the only difference is that you offload the remaining preparation and supplies.

Today is the last day to purchase stamps that will arrive soon enough. I don't know what we'll do. The most probable outcome is needing to revoke our recipients and cancel what has already been done. Mitch will block pandemic relief and control, and block climate action.

These tubes, if any can be sold, will be used to purchase 100-200 stamps for the first $55-110. The faster the 7 boxes of 49 recycled paper tubes can be sold, the more time we will have to exceed 100 letters for the Senate. MADE IN USA. Approximately $16.33 equivalent per box. Ships in up to 8 days (due to prioritizing letters). Excess money (minimum $100 required for processing) will be donated to (examples) the New Georgia Project, Environmental Voter Project, and People For the American Way (they are 501c4 charities so there are less legal restrictions than political campaigns).

Grim reaping will continue for another 2 years if Republicans win just one. Grim reaping through times of crisis is favored to continue considering Democrats need 2 and Republicans need just 1. It is unlikely that any of the less radical Republican senators will drop their party affiliation to ditch Mitch's majority since they all voted for him. I will have to cancel the prospect of exceeding 100.

As part of an effort to get more people here to write letters to Georgia, I am giving away free packs of 5 paper pencil cushions to anyone who signs up at votefwd.org and writes at least 5 letters. Paper or cellophane tape is needed around the pencils below the cushions to prevent unrestricted downward movement. When the pencils are shorter, they can be used when cushions are not desired. 100% recycled paper and MADE IN USA.

Rewarding egregious companies for poisoning people and land couldn't be anything besides part of a rotten agenda. We won't go anywhere except down plunging into frack wells and poison dumps in the next 4 years. If Orange Trump was removed as a reference, Blue Trump would be clearly impeachable already for supporting PFOA poisoning. Biden doesn't care about people or his supporters, or he wouldn't support poisoning them with PFOA. 100,000 victims of a Bidendorsed dump of 7,100 tons of PFOA is larger than Blue Trump's victory margin over Orange Trump in the selectoral college (around 80,000 to 90,000). #BlueTrumpBluePruitt

I am extremely disappointed with and have lost all faith and hope in the future 46th President of the United States. Michael McCabe lobbied the EPA to avoid designating the forever poison PFOA as sufficiently toxic, thereby allowing DuPont to AVOID CLEANUP of 7,100 tons of POISONOUS PFOA waste dumped near their facility in Parkersburg, West Virginia, contaminating the drinking water of 100,000 people. If McCabe becomes the next EPA Administrator, Biden deserves to be impeached. Joe CHEATED to his base, not over Trump. How depressing it is that there is another 4 years before the next election. I am ashamed of ever feeling hopeful about the next 4 years and hardly want to wave DUMP TRUMP [TAKE HIS ORANGE SHIRT OFF AND PUT A BLUE SHIRT ON, AND TOSS HIM BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE AGAIN] flags indoors. Trump shouldn't be able to switch the color of his shirt intermittently to be in office for 12 years. Blue TRUMP should be ashamed of betraying the hundreds of thousands of people poisoned by PFOA in West Virginia.

Dupont’s relationship with Biden’s home state of Delaware probably goes back to the company’s founding. Their relationship with Biden probably goes back almost 40 years. Biden has promised to “tackle PFAS pollution by designating PFAS as a hazardous substance, setting enforceable limits for PFAS in the Safe Drinking Water Act . . “ We’ll have to hold his feet to the fire and make sure he does so. https://theintercept.com/2020/11/11/biden-epa-transition-dupont-mccabe/

Enough of this hollow fraud. Joe Biden appointed a DuPont consultant, Michael McCabe, to the Environmental Protection Agency transition board. What has DuPont done? They lied and covered up the danger of their forever PFAS chemicals for decades and then spun-off their PFAS poisons division to protect their illegitimate, unearned, and undeserved money by separating liability from the main company. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/nov/19/dear-joe-biden-are-you-kidding-me-erin-brockovich

Instead of sending out frequent emails for new Apple iPhone 11s for 53% less or new Apple iPhone SEs for $0, just offer lower service prices. Mobile carriers should only provide service, not disposable phones. The service may already be inexpensive, but it should just be further lowered to attract more customers instead of flushing iPhones down the drain. Apple's factories have reprehensible working conditions and wages. Since Apple will not sufficiently improve on their own, it is up to their customers, which includes companies, to at least not facilitate the replacement of electronics so frequently. Production volume is one excuse why Apple supposedly cannot transition to alternative ethical manufacturers instead of Foxconn and Pegatron. https://www.thepetitionsite.com/656/334/946/credo-mobile-must-stop-facilitating-needless-electronic-waste-and-iphones/ Goal of 500 signatures

The White House’s liaison to the climate movement will reportedly be Rep. Cedric Richmond — who has raked in big money from the fossil fuel industry while voting to help oil and gas companies. Read full article: https://www.dailyposter.com/p/news-bidens-first-climate-appointment This is worrisome. I hope future climate nominations will be better than this.

Any 3 ways you look at it, Trump lost as much or more than Trump lost or won in 2016. Trump lost by 2 million more than he lost last time (Votes) Trump lost by the same proportion as he won last time (Selectoral). Trump lost by 12,000 more than he won last time (Determining Votes).

77,744 votes decided the 2016 Presidential Selection, defying Trump's loss by 2,868,691. Only ~500 people (somewhat more to add a buffer) working a few hours per day for a couple months registering other Americans to vote could have prevented Trump's selection, if 2/3 of the extra voters were Democratic (which is a very reasonable proportion for non-voters). This is how important it is to vote and work to protect our elections and ensure they do not become arbitrary manipulated selections. Only 466,464 voters being registered would have defeated Trump.

These are rolls of 1,000 each, 2” circular “MADE IN USA” labels that are 100% recycled and compostable. 10 cents per label for quantities below 20,000 (20 rolls). 8 cents per label for quantities of 20,000 or higher. Estimated lead time of a few weeks (due to custom manufacturing). Also, the processing time will be delayed by needing to sell 20 rolls before placing each order (if an order is more than 20 rolls, the entire shipment is sent directly to you). These labels will promote Made in USA products, while generating money for installing a renewable energy system in our house (among other things), which will reduce several tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year. To transition to renewable heating, we will need to earn money from selling these Made in USA labels. Products imported from overseas are shipped with heavy fuel oil (HFO), which is the sludgy remains of petroleum dredged from the bottom of the barrel. It is basically liquid coal. By purchasing USA Made, you help eliminate the need for the liquid coal, of which causes immense amounts of sulfur pollution, leading to acid rain and 400,000 deaths per year. Importing most products is as absurd as trying to build a bridge across the ocean! If you oppose oil pipelines due to spill risk, also oppose manufacturing pipelines across the oceans. Heavy fuel oil is 50 times more toxic than crude oil when spilled. For our renewable heating system, we will need copper pipes, brass valves, copper radiators, fans, up to 10 heat batteries, solar collectors, fans, controlling equipment, and a brushless pump. The copper pipes will probably be Made in USA and 100% recycled. Using water pipes allows the integration of renewable energy sources such as solar collectors, heat pumps, and electricity. Even a natural gas water heater could be connected, although that can only be a temporary upgrade at best. Controlling the output at each room could be performed as easily as adjusting the thermostat, without needing to climb ladders to the ceiling (this function may not be immediately implemented). Air distribution does allow closing the registers, but adding resistance instead of lowering the fan speeds at certain rooms is inefficient. The copper pipes should last 50 to 70 years or longer, but other components may need more frequent replacement. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for, and our responsibility is at least half as valuable as the collective whole. If we are exempt, which is the opposite of a reasonable conclusion, who shouldn’t be (besides Big Oil)? My preferred payment method is USD Coin stable cryptocurrency, but a $1,200+ order is not something I can do without first receiving money from purchases. At the same time, I understand concerns about scams when using cryptocurrency and paying first. If you use USD Coin, it is only reasonable to expect payment once the labels arrive (or at earliest, when the package number is being tracked). Credit cards would require disclosing credit card numbers, so I don’t really know what to do. (Our public cryptocurrency addresses are so vulnerable, fragile, and worthy of immense protection, right? Don’t they require issuing a new piece of Polyvinyl Chloride when replaced?) Smaller orders would work, but then the rolls are much more expensive per label.
