Printed 107 years ago today in the Tacoma Times. Slighlty edited cleaned up, specifically lightening the darkness of the image, and removing some smudges in the text, see the original.
Found on the Library of Congress site.
Ah yes, my daily trash delivery. Things really haven’t changed much in 100 years
Makes for good fire starter though.
I dunno, a lot of the junk mail paper seems to be half-plastic. And even the newsprint, I wonder whether the ink will be toxic when burned.
Just your daily dose of inhaled microplastics and hydrocarbons. Nothing to see here.
And no one listened because its just as bad our worse if you count email advertising. Where is True when we need him.
Still trying to figure out how to punch someone through the Internet.
The spirit lives on.
Man you know how problems could be solved that way? If we could just half as bad as True we would probably live in a better world.
My girlfriend deciding she thought getting the mail everyday was something exciting has oddly been one of the more positive changes in life recently. To come home and just have one piece of mail that is actually necessary sitting where I put my work backpack and not have to even see all the other junk is a much better experience.
I try hard to reduce my trash and recyclables, and it always depressed me to throw >90% of my “mail” right into the recycle box.
“Opt Out” phone numbers are a joke, I had to mail letters asking the company to leave us alone with their promotional paper. True YOU, SelectQuote!
