Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option.

This seems specifically designed to break mail-in voting (USPS postmark rule change) (lemmy.nz)

If you want to vote by mail please do so as soon as you can and consider dropping it off at the counter where they will postmark it right away.

Also if you live in a state where you're allowed to photograph your ballot consider doing so to have proof you voted a certain way.

Note that as a counterpoint the federal register website claims they are just clarifying language to improve public understanding: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/08/12/2025-15266/postmarks-and-postal-possession

I didn't check that document very closely yet.

Especially when they're sure to find ways to demolish post office processing times around election seasons specifically to kill mailed in ballots.

This isn't relevant, even when we've been slammed local offices separate the ballots and bring them to a hub or county seat if it's within a week of an election. Postal workers actually care about doing their jobs.

Postal workers actually care about doing their jobs.

Next step will be to get rid of those people by any means possible...

There's a sort of inertia within the organization, you both can't get rid of those people nor make them care more than they currently do. I think management has been trying to kill them off for decades. :)
