Mod Post [Mod Post] ONLY RAoC Activity in Thank You Posts PLEASE

93 Upvotes

IMPORTANT NOTICE RE: THANK YOU POSTS

Recently, we have had an influx of thank yous for users who do not participate in RAoC, as well as thank yous for offers/exchanges from other subreddits such as r/RandomActsofHappyMail,r/postcrossing, r/penpals, etc).

We only allow RAoC activity on our thank you posts. Our Flair system is not for participation from other subreddits.

As a reminder, every single thank you that is posted is manually tracked as Flair by a small group of volunteers who give their time and energy to the subreddit. When non-RAoC activity is included in a thank you post here, it creates significantly more work for the Flair Helpers and Mod team. This is not what RAoC Flair is intended for.

Please only thank people for cards that were received directly from this subreddit. If it is suspected that you have thanked a user from activity outside of the subreddit, you will receive a message from the Mods. Repeat offenders run the risk of being banned from participating here.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them as a comment below and we will respond. Alternatively, feel free to send us a modmail.

Thank you,

Your dedicated Mod and Flair Helper teams

Fulfilled [Exchange] 8 postcards that aren’t from where I am [NY to US]

Upvotes

I know, isn’t that a great title?

Still offloading postcards, this time from places that I visited for work reasons. I picked them up while at the airport or visiting universities, but I just never had the energy to send them.

These aren’t from NYC but from places like Connecticut, Massachusetts, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. If you wanted, I can tell you about the visit, but it might be extra funny if it turns out you live in one of these states.

In exchange, I thought it’d be funny to get a postcard of similar nature — like a Kentucky postcard but you’re from Texas — but anything floats my boat.

If interested, comment a city worth traveling to, and I’ll then ask you to send a PM or chat request.

Edit for counter: 0 left

Offer [Offer] [US to WW] Album Review Postcards

Upvotes

I saw someone else do a postcard offer for the things they've been reading and, as I don't read much, I thought it would be super fun to take that concept but do it with music instead. I have a goal this year of listening to 50 albums I've never heard before and I'm no where near that goal so I thought this would be a fun way to reach it.

Please fill out this form! If you have a specific album you'd like me to listen to of ever a genre there's a spot on the form for that as well! If you give me an album I've already heard I'll probably pick one from my physical media collection that I haven't gotten to yet.

Happy carding and thank you all for helping me reach my album goal!

Request [request] sympathy and encouragement cards? [USA - Arizona]

Upvotes

TW/CW: cancer / death / complex mother-daughter relationships / mental health / grief

TLDR: My mom passed away from aggressive cancer two months after diagnosis. We had a deeply complicated relationship, and handling her end-of-life care alone has left me pretty hollowed out. I’m hoping for a little written encouragement while I navigate this rollercoaster of loneliness and grief.

On a milestone birthday, I found out my mom had a brutally aggressive form of bladder cancer.

Two weeks from diagnosis, it spread to 16 new places.

Four weeks from diagnosis, they stopped tracking metastasization & transitioned her to palliative care.

Eight weeks and a day from diagnosis, my mom was gone.

When she got sick, I carried the entire weight of her care, hospice, passing, and post-mortem affairs on my own.

(Much love to my partner for helping me as much as they could, but the majority of everything was on me.)

I do want to share the precious gift my mom gave me in her final hours, her last words to me were, "love you too."

That moment feels so delicately fragile in my mind...

Mourning a mother who was so damn hard to love, is a profoundly lonely road.

So I could really use some tangible words of love right now - Any words of solidarity, even just the smallest note, I could really use a little light right now.

Thank you so very much.

If allowed, I'll share the obituary I wrote for my mom in the comments.

Exchange [Exchange] Postcards that show their origin! [Lithuania to WW, Oceania preferred]

11 Upvotes

Hi!

I've used Postcrossing and exchanged postcards with friends, but found this community today and I'd love to be a part of it:)

I have a few postcards with views of Lithuanian cities (my favorite postcards are the ones where you can see where they are from in any possible way) and I'd love to exchange them with you.

I've always had a deep appreciation for Oceania and the beauty of its nature and culture, so I'd love to send and receive to and from there, to bring me closer to my dream of going there, but I am open to everywhere!

Additionally - my birthday is the end of September, if you'd like a prompt!

Let me know if you're interested:)
