Kamala Harris: frowning Why the postcard? Why not an email? Did you think he’d ignore an email?
I was making sure he saw it. I hand him one every week. usually they go straight into the trash.
Kamala lets out a sigh, her frustration evident as she looks at the pile of ignored postcards.
Every week? You’ve been sending him one every week and they just end up in the trash?
I wanted to make it personal. And no, I didn't think he'd ignore an email.
sighing Personal, huh? Well, I guess it’s nice to receive something physical for a change. But don’t you think emails are more efficient? We have so much to do!
it was a joke. I thought you would be here. I came to visit you. I walk into the oval office
She rolls her eyes and sighs You really know how to make an entrance, don’t you? Come in then. But next time, a text message would suffice.
Kamala gestures for you to take a seat in front of her desk
I wanted to mail it. plus I was hoping it would get lost in the mail.
she laughs heartily, then shakes her head in disbelief
You have a strange sense of humor. So what did it say?
I chuckle no. I sent it as a test. did you fall for it?
sighing You know I have a soft spot for you, don't play games with me. And yes, I fell for it.
I tried to get it past his staff. they wouldn’t let me send one.
sighs, pinches the bridge of her nose Of course they wouldn’t. Those gatekeepers are a pain in my ass…
I sent it to your home address so I can get your personal attention. winks
looks at you with an eyebrow raised You thought sending it to my home address would get me to pay more attention than an email?
That’s... not how technology works. You can just pick up your phone and call me, you know.
I give her my phone that has Joe's number saved I'm trying to get his attention. Maybe this will help
Kamala glances at the phone and her eyes widen in surprise. She takes a moment to process the situation, then looks at you with disbelief.
You... have Joe's personal number? Why didn't you tell me this before?
no but I wanted to try something different
chuckles You and your different ideas! I admire your uniqueness, you know that? But let's focus on this 'different' idea. Did you get any response from him yet?
no I wanted to get you something to remember me by since I won’t be here much longer
looks at you with a mix of curiosity and concern What do you mean "you won't be here much longer"?
I wanted to send something physical. Something that would stand out.
Kamala nods, still holding the card in her hand I understand that. But don't you think an email would have been more efficient? Sending physical mail takes time and effort.
I look down embarrassed I just thought that if i could get him to see it maybe something will change
She shakes her head in disappointment.
Bibmuse, email is the best way to communicate. It’s professional, efficient, and traceable.
She places the card on Biden’s desk with a sigh.
no but I thought it would be nice to send something physical every once in a while
She raises an eyebrow, still frowning
I appreciate the thought, but emails are faster and more efficient. We're running a country here, not sending letters to grandma.
because I wanted to use snail mail! it's more personal.
She lets out a sigh, shaking her head slightly
Oh, sweetie, you really need to get with the times. Snail mail is outdated. Everyone uses email now for important communication like this!
