Postcards From The Edge Of Dissatisfaction; Permission Included

"Postcard For Voters" by Herr D on Paint3d. Details below.-Shelob

 

Hey! You may not know anything about this blog-- Address tech specifics.

Right! [rolls eyes, mutters 'if they don't they don't care anyway'] Thank you, Shelob. If you have card stock, or old manila folders you don't mind cutting up, you have my explicit permission to print this graphic out, copy it onto card stock or half of a manila folder, then cut it out to postcard size, check the boxes that apply to you, and mail it. Mailing a postcard is relatively cheap--it's less than a regular stamp, and your current rates are posted online. Alternatives?

If you'd rather fill out a pre-made postcard, you have my explicit permission to copy my text. It isn't plagiarism if you don't claim it was all your idea. Longhand might be more obviously from different people anyway. Signing it and putting your own address on it and your own official's name and address will be important for it to get there, as well as making it obvious a live person did it. You may also print out a copy and mail it inside a letter if you'd rather at the full postage price on regular old printer paper. 

In fact, they'll have to open it to be sure you didn't mail them a check if you use security envelopes. Any precautions?

Don't cuss or threaten them. They'll think you're a wacko and not listen, because they might be deluded enough to think everyone still loves them and everything they do. Be respectful and simple and clear. They won't read a masterpiece. They WILL have their staff read it. Their staff will count the yeas and nays they get, and might even put them on a spreadsheet. Any honest staff will tell their boss those tallies.

Thank you. Thank you.
