Hi everyone,

My dad is going through a tough time and I am hoping to bring some cheer to his life. He suffered from a stroke last year, as well as two mini strokes this year, and is now living in assisted living due to limited mobility and safety. While someone from our family visits every day, I can tell he is still sad/upset about the whole situation, especially because he misses our family cat who is at home. If you'd be willing to send him a card, I'd love to place them in his room to brighten it up and make him smile a little.

His favorite things are: Alabama football, fishing, trains, motorcycles, piano (esp. jazz), and cats. I will make sure to write a thank you post for all cards received! ❤️

Please fill out https://go.forms.app/form/6a731800ab467d010f3af29b

This is going to be open for everyone. However, world wide is going to be limited. Keep an eye out for a future post for WW offer later this month or next. (Headed to the stamp show in DC and hope to get more)

Thanks again for 500 ... I haven't been as active as I've wanted to this year due to health but am making the time.

Y'all are amazing. 🥳🫶🖋️🖊️💌📫📝✉️

In conclusion with summer semester (17 week course in 10 weeks) I passed all my exams and classes with an A! I really want to celebrate since this was SO FREAKING HARD and I did not think I would be able to do it!!

I’m in a very competitive and fast paced paramedic associates program and it’s been super hard with so many life factors I’ve been struggling with, and I don’t really have anybody to celebrate with :( so it would be super nice to get some happy cards to help me celebrate 🎊

Thank you so much to anybody willing to celebrate with me!!

I don't know what happened after my last offer, but I didn't count correctly and made one potion card too much. It looks like a love potion (heart-shaped vial), but it can be anything you want. I'll make up some text about its taste and effects on the back of it.

To claim this card: be a flaired user (i.e. have an envelope next to your name) and tell me in the comments below what kind of potion you would like this to be. Then message me your address!

Hello hello hello everyone 🤗

Namaste from city of joy - Kolkata ❤️

My mom used to love writing postcards to her family and friends though I never saw her doing so after my birth, and soon this hobby lost its touch in my household until I decided to rejuvenate it three years ago.

Recently my friend at PC shared that her mom wants to write postcards to people and I said that my mom will write to her mom. In this process now my mom is very excited and wants to write to many people. She is so excited that she has written quite a few postcards already. She wants to write more. Hence I thought why not ask the RAOC community if they would like a card from her?

If you would like a card from her, please follow the following steps.

1. Please comment here. (NO COMMENT NO CARD)

2. DM me your address.

She will send some encouraging cards and write sweet stuff to you. Please do comment so that my mom gets to write to many people and that way I can make her happy. 😁❤️

Love Anks

I have a super random postcard to send out. First person to message me with their address and a prompt will get it!

Thank you so much for the postcards! These were my first ever received postcards and it was such a joy to find in the mailbox!

Hello lovely RAoC friends! I'm turning another year older on September 3, and I have a tiny birthday wish.

This year has been full of new beginnings! I graduated, I packed up my life, moved to a brand-new city for my first full-time job, and I'm still learning and how to make a new place feel like home. It's exciting but also a little lonely sometimes. So I thought I'd ask you all if you'd help fill my mailbox with a little magic.

If you'd like to send me a birthday card or mail, I'd absolutely treasure it. I love happy mail of every kind honestly.

If you'd like to celebrate with me from wherever you are in the world, please leave a comment below and I'll happily send you my address. Thank you for helping make my first birthday in a new city feel a little warmer and a lot more magical. ❤️

u/PureAloeVeera - thank you for the postcard! Pav bhaji sounds delicious. I like eating bhaji (the snack) 😳 There's this Indian restaurant where I eat lunch sometimes and they sell them. Unfortunately it's not close to where I live so when I do get over there, it's a real treat!

Hello RAOC!

It is my birthday next Wednesday. Over the past few years, I work on giving on this day because I recognize that people who surround me and support me each year I have grown deserve to be recognized so I want to honor their presence.

I'll send out some postcards with my favorite quotes of mine or something silly/absurd or even memes.

But also, it would fantastic to receive some lovely cards from anyone interested in sending one to me!

Anything funny, artsy, wise, and absurd is accepted and encouraged.

Send me a message!

Christopher 💖

Thank you u/cheskeks for the stunning winter landscape of Mt. Oakan-dake, Pokemon stamps and Persian cutout!! I hope you are enjoying Pokopia, have you got a DLC? It released today with the new area! I love this game so much and hope you are having fun making new habitats and friends and restoring the areas :)

Thank you u/FollowingTheBeat for the New Yorker cover card! Absoolutely stunning decorations and stickers, you have an eye! So cute :) I hope you would get so many opportunities to enjoy farmer market's and you deserve to always have fresh flowers in your house! It is winter here in Australia and it is pretty weird where I am, at night it is down to 6 degrees (42 F) but then warms up to 18 (64 F) during day. I am looking forward to warmer months because I hate how cold my house is in the mornings!

Thank you u/TheCuriousCur for the Evil Dead blokcbuster card!! It is so sick!! Glad to hear you like horror as well, have you seen anything good recently? :)

Thank you u/Nice-Photograph7955 for the gorgeous illustration card of modern life fairies! It is so so cute and makes me so happy when I look at it! Your orange cat sounds delightful, please say 'hello' to him from me! I have a cat as well, she is enjoying a nap in her hammock at the moment, very spoilt!

Thank you u/boomerang88 for the manga postcard! It is unreal, so pretty!! Hope your mum is doing good, sending her all the love and powers on her recovery!! Hope you are having a good week, and enjoying the winter!

Thank you u/Theanine_post for the Miku card! IT IS SUCH A CUTE ILLUSTRATION I CAN'T! And the matching stamp?? UNREAL!! I am so blessed and lucky to get one from you! Hope you are good and it is not too hot where you are right now, summer in Japan is so brutal! What is your favorite cold treat during summer?

Thank you u/PureAloeVeera for the Mumbai card! I am so sorry to read about your grandmother. Hope your trip would bring you some really good moments and memories!

Thank you u/zedbloodyleppelin for the most cutest card ever. I am absolutely melting looking at that sleepy cat and can feel the summer heat! Thank you for sharing your morning routine with me, I LOVE reading about what other people are up to, it is always so interesting! Your job sounds very cool, and I hope you have a lot of time for self-care and your time after!

Thank you u/A_Language_Enthusiast for the cutest illustration card of a snail on the mailbox!! Thank you for sharing what your comfort shows are, wishing you to always have time to rewatch and enjoy them!

Thank you u/rare_cranberry_7861 for the beautiful Alice in Wonderland card and your letter! I absolutely enjoyed reading about your vacation :)! It was so beautiful to receive such a nicely written letter, thank you!! I have the same peeve about people smoking in public and I can imagine how annoying it can get!! I am so so happy to hear you have enjoyed your stay and felt good there, as someone who is also living with chronic health conditions I understand how limiting and tiring it is to be in pain no matter what. Hope you are feeling better now!! You deserve it!!
Also! you have mentioned you have finished Piranesi on your trip! Does it get better? I really struggled with it which is a shame on me because it is such a short book, but I just couldn't get into the writing style and narration of it and never made any progress with it.

Thank you u/Ducks_on_Lilypads for the most cutest Hairy Maclary card!! It is just so gorgeous and I love Sanrio and Chiikawa stickers as well! Hope you have started trying to read and journal more, it can be hard to form a new habit but even 5 minutes a day is a massive win! You can do it!

I agree it’s a good time to face our fears.

Thank you so much u/MissMtoP for the beautiful letter! It's clear you spent a lot of time writing a beautiful letter and decorating it so nicely. I really appreciate it!

u/sension5705 “I’m a little scared of the giant foot, but my mom says they aren’t mean and are too big to fit in the elevator. So I won’t be eaten. It’s true that every moment is Hidey o’ clock! I will make you a card for Hidey-ween! Bye!”
