Trump will deliver killing blow to the USPS
The USPS is about to declare bankruptcy. It’s at the center of the longstanding plans for disaster recover and has been since the Cold War. It’s the only institution that could (for example) deliver covid meds to every home in America in one day.
https://pluralistic.net/2020/03/25/national-emergency-library/#going-postal
But Congress has decided not to bail out the postal service, despite Art 1, Sec 8 of the US Constitution: “To establish Post Offices and post Roads.”
Maybe it’s because without a USPS we couldn’t have a postal vote in 2020?
https://pluralistic.net/2020/03/27/just-asking-questions/#save-usps
The proximate cause of the post office’s bankruptcy is the pandemic, but that is merely the finishing blow. The USPS was murdered in 2006, when Congress passed the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act.
https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2020/04/will-the-united-states-post-office-become-a-victim-of-covid19.html
The Act gave the USPS a mere 10 years to “prefund its future health care benefit payments to retirees for the next 75 years.” That is, to set aside cash to pay medical bills for future employees who hadn’t been born yet.

The USPS’s murder is straight out of the neoliberal playbook: “1 Defund, 2 claim crisis, 3 call for privatizatization, 4 profit!”
As Lambert Strether points out, it was a bipartisan act of murder, cosponored by the “centrist” Democrat Henry Waxman.
Killing the USPS looms large in the Trump admin’s (nonmetaphorical, actual) privatization playbook, “Delivering Government Solutions in the 21st Century Reform Plan and Reorganization Recommendations”:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Government-Reform-and-Reorg-Plan.pdf
The proposals are for USPS to become a Wework clone or franchisee, but not to become a publicly owned bank - a common line of business for other nations’ postal services, natural based on the amounts of cash they handle.
The USPS is the nation’s second largest employer of veterans, with 630,000 employees. Trump is about to allow it to collapse so that UPS, Fedex and other private firms can skim off the most profitable parts of its business and leave rural Americans totally isolated.
The loss of the USPS would mean the loss of the last truly universal federal program in America and would unduly hammer the people whom Trump claims to love – veterans and rural voters.

PEPPERMINT!! Or Pep for short! (To name the cute spider)
“you all asked: Name Virgil’s spider, huh? Hmm…. Well what about Coraline? They give me Coraline vibes.
As a suggestion for the little lady’s name, how about Meca? She kind of looks like a Mecaphesa schlingeri, which is a kind of white and red crab spider which is part of the family- wait for it- Thomisidae! *finger guns in name research nerd*
Maybe you should name him Wild card? He kinda looks like a deck of cards. A little bit.
:0 name her Angel!!!
perhaps valentine or charlotte? for virgils spider, i mean
“Hey, how bout you guys not tell me I’m pathetic after this? Trust me, I know.”

Happy Holidays! Just the girls spending time at the aquarium together, which was Honey’s idea of a present for Dolly, who has to go on a boring family trip every year during most of the season, so she wanted to give them something fun to do together before she left!
Taking the rest of the month and change off, except for outstanding commitments, so there are a few more of these that didn’t make the cut and will be released as bonus images for my patrons. I’m so exhausted, you have no idea. Me and Honey are taking some time to recover. ^^
If you want to see these updates early and ask questions for her and her friends to answer before anyone else’s - consider: Becoming a Patron!

She actually pretty much admits to her own internal transphobia in her Autogynephilia video. It's near the end of the video where she explain her style for video being autogynephilic chic. (I think that the phrase she used. It has been awhile since I've watched the vid)
I think Contra still sees trans people in general as weird freaks of nature that are to be made fun of, herself included. She's consistently mentioned wanting to be seen as "normal" off camera while treating herself as some ridiculous prop in her videos. I doubt she's ever really gotten over that self-loathing, and NB folks are just the most obvious victims of her crude humor. I've been staved away from self-deprecation pretty hard after seeing what a mental trainwreck she has become
Considering she continuously refers to herself as the T-Slur and other similar garbage, and the always cloying way she cuddles up to the right, I always figured that internalized transphobia was at play with her.
It always is with this brand of trans person.
