    Mail has become so fucked up it’s not even funny anymore.

    • I sent a postcard from Italy to Denmark in early August last year. It took two months to arrive.
    • I sent a Christmas card in an envelope from Austria to Colorado in early December. It arrived late January.
    • The second-oldest postal service in the world (Denmark) was privatized, price-hiked, then recently shut down after 416 years. It is now not possible to post a letter in Denmark, and letters to Denmark may take months to be delivered.

    Thanks for nothing, postal services or something the world.
