USPS mail-in voting rules spark election official concern

The U.S. Postal Service has proposed new rules that would implement parts of President Donald Trump’s executive order on voting by mail, rai

Austin (KXAN) — The U.S. Postal Service has proposed new rules that would implement parts of President Donald Trump’s executive order on voting by mail, raising concerns among election officials and voting rights advocates.

The proposal would require states to provide USPS with lists of voters receiving mail-in and absentee ballots in federal elections. It would also require ballot envelopes to carry unique Postal Service barcodes, allowing USPS to verify mailings against state-submitted voter data.

“There are a couple of levels to this,” VoteBeat senior national reporter Dion Nissenbaum said. “One is it would require all states to submit a list of everybody in their state that wants to vote by mail 60 days before the November election.”

Election officials say the changes could force counties to purchase new technology, redesign ballot envelopes and update ballot-tracking systems before the 2026 midterm elections.

Anon asks are back on, mostly because I miss my anons...But, I'm going to make one thing clear. I will not be walked on. If you say something along the lines of disrespectful, I will not answer it, and the ask will be deleted. I am a human being with feelings, and that will not be tolerated.

I appreciate kind, constructive criticism. And to everyone who has let me know about errors, thank you.

I'm not trying to parent or police anything, but if what happened the other day happens again, I won't be accepting anon asks for a while.

Thank you.

Hii guys, i just wanted to post like a “life” update i guess. I really won’t be active (on tumblr or discord), like at all, for a few days because of 2 deaths that happened in my family. I’m also not accepting any new DMs during this time so I don’t get overwhelmed. Also, i’m gonna do an inbox cleanse like if your a weirdo or just extremely overbearing your getting removed (THIS DOES NOT MEAN EVERYONE PLZZ DO NOT WORRY LOL)

I wanna take time away from the “kink” aspect of my account for a little bit, also I will be posting a boundaries list soon (I’ll probably attach it to my introduction). But yea!!! just trying to stay positive and smile through this really tough time. I love every single one of you guys!!💕💕

I'm back – quietly, but with purpose

I wasn't sure if I would ever return.

My personal life has been shaken. My partner broke up with me after our trip to Japan, and even though we're still in some kind of emotional limbo, the weight of it has been hard to carry.

It left me drained, unsure, fragile.

🌸 Japan changed me

Visiting Japan (especially Yokohama) grounded me in a way I didn't expect. I walked the streets not as a fan, but as someone trying to find peace. I visited Mori's grave in Tokio. I left a small message. I want to return one day (maybe for his death anniversary) and offer a sotoba in his name.

It may sound strange, but that kind of dedication gives me strength right now. ♥

📖 A Quiet Return to Words

I've read many books and have written since I was a child: poems, stories, journals. Sometimes more, sometimes less, but it has always been a part of me. Now, I want to return to it with more seriousness and intention.

Most of what I write will be in German, and I may not share everything publicly or at least not through this blog, but possibly a sideblog.

I've recently chosen a Gō (号), a traditional Japanese writer's name, to reflect this quieter, more introspective part of me. Under that name, I may one day share selected poems or reflections in my own rhythm, and in my native language.

✍ More than a fan – a writer, a learner.

Mori Ōgai translated great German works into Japanese. I grew up loving many of those German classics. It inspires me to go the other way and perhaps one day translate Hirotsu Ryūrō's works into German. (They don't exist in German at all, and I think they should.)

So I'm going to keep learning Japanese – slowly, seriously, with care. Not because I "have to", but because it matters to me.

🖋️ Tumblr activities – slow, but still alive and with new rules!

I won't be fully returning to roleplay yet. My time is limited, and emotionally I'm not there.

But I'll continue to maintain the Masterlist, and I have new ideas for the Yokohama Blog, which has become one of the parts I enjoy the most.

In all of this, I've been trying to reconnect with what matters to me. And that brought me back here. Carefully, and on my own new terms:

⚖️ Rules – and a boundary I should've set long ago

I used to be someone who never blocked anyone, unless they were obvious scammers. I kept trying to be patient, to understand, to explain. But the truth is: I burned myself out trying to please people who only saw me as a machine. I've reached my limit and I won't waste my energy or care on people who drain me. I don't want to be a people pleaser anymore, because I'm done being easy to access. I came close to quitting this space entirely, simply because a few individuals couldn’t take a silent "no" as an answer.

From now on:

⚠️RULES⚠️

🔹 I do not want DMs. They cause me deep stress. If you're not one of the very few I talk to → please don't message me privately! 🔹 I reply when I can. I have a full-time job and many other things I want to achieve in real life. 🔹 This blog is a personal space. It's not here to serve your schedule, needs or social expectations. 🔹 If you push past my boundaries, you will be blocked. Quietly, without drama. I don't owe anyone explanations anymore.

💬 If you're still here: thank you.

I know this isn't the most cheerful return post. But it's honest.

If you're here for stories, for quiet inspiration, for a space that’s personal and real: you're welcome. :)

Let’s build something thoughtful. Even slowly, even imperfectly.

🎞️ Also – for those interested:

I'll be releasing a new AMV this Friday and in honour of both Mori's death (9 July) and Hirotsu's birthday (15 July), I hereby declare this month Hiromori-Month! (A completely unofficial celebration... but it amuses me. xD)

And one last thing:

This community has fallen far too quiet, so consider this me clapping my hands loudly to wake everyone up again. Let's bring some life back into it, shall we? ^^

Anon asks

At this moment there are more than 120 asks waiting for me, that's without counting the larger readings you guys want me to do. Some asks are as far back as April, and I only now have the time to answer them. So...kind of a lot of asks to remember.

A lot of asks are sent to me more than once, some are not complete and others are too unclear for me to understand. If it's a language problem, I'm always willing to ask for clarification, I'm not even a native speaker myself, so I understand how difficult it can be. It's just the asks people send me with only first names, that take a lot of time for me to guess who you mean. I don't follow everybody, a lot of the time I have to look these people up.

I have decided, new rules:

From now on I only answer asks with a clear question. Tell me what type of reading you want (aka love/career/future spouse/personality reading etc. etc.) If you have a specific question, try to tell me exactly what you want me to read for. I don't have time to guess what you want to know.

If you send your ask every other day to me, I will not answer it at all. It's drowning me in asks, and they will not be answered sooner. I usually answer the eldest first anyways, only when it is a situation that requires an answer right a way or soon, I might answer it quickly and only if it's not a large reading. I will get to your ask eventually, but it doesn't help with the over flowing inbox if you keep sending it.

From now on I only answer asks with FIRST and LAST names from the celebrities . I will delete all asks without them, because they pollute my inbox and I have to ask who you want me to read for. That's a lot of time I could use in answering one of the many asks, and I don't want that anymore.

A lot of the time you guys ask me about timing. How long....? (will the relationship last? Are they endgame? Are they breaking up soon?) When (is ....going to happen? are they breaking up? Is his/her career going to be long?) I have decided I will delete all asks (former asks and in future) about TIMING because I can't predict it with Tarot. I HAVE SAID MANY TIMES: ENERGY CHANGES CONSTANTLY/THERE'S FREE WILL/I CANT SAY HOW LONG OR WHEN.

I love a good discussion, but I can't say this enough: you will be blocked when you are rude to me, I delete the ask when it's an opinion about something without a question for me. I just have no time to read it all. Oh, and of course you can tell me that you don't believe what I said or pulled. But it won't change my mind , so I will end up deleting it, because I know what I can and I trust what I pull.
