And then it’s shown that the cheeks are just sorta drawn onto the back cover but there are real cheeks underneath… I’m sorry but this is genius.

Here’s a great little informational thread about what Alabama state Senators actually do and why it’s an important role that needs to be filled by someone competent who won’t just rubber-stamp the MAGA agenda! www.kramerforalabama.com #Alabama #BlueWave #MidtermElections

I admit I always sort of half-wondered why the name of your show changed (I honestly love both names though). I guess it was just a legal-name-rights sorta thing?

I am 99.99% sure that they are doing this because it feels more slave trade-y to them and they just love that.

No longer content to drag us back to the 1950s, they now insist on dragging us back to the early 1900s, at the most recent. We all know actual witch trials are coming if we let them continue.

They did not. It’s all lies, and therefore… LIBEL!!! What the fuck happened to libel laws?

I was there about a year ago and when they asked me that I said, “Well, I sorta got a bicycle in my eye.” Thing is I was 100% serious. 😜🫣

I think if the GOP want him to show up, he should show up. And cough in Paxton’s face, then go back home and get back in bed.

Me: What's the difference between a hippo and a zippo?
N: *sigh* What?
Me: One is really heavy and the other's a little lighter.
N: Why won't you let me enjoy my life?

Or just delete your Amazon account and never look back. This seems simpler. I have not regretted it once.

Yes, I’m so glad she survived. If you get hit over the head that hard there should be no question of toughing it out, you need to get your ass to the hospital ASAP. Do not go and sleep it off! She could have just not woken up. Think Bob Saget!

To anyone who is listening: if you are EVER struck over the head so hard that you LOSE CONSCIOUSNESS, for any reason whatsoever, be it assault or a slip & fall, at bare minimum you have GOT go to the hospital IMMEDIATELY! I am so glad she survived and didn’t fail to wake up after that!!

It has happened to me more frequently than I like, and it fills me with a blinding rage every damn time. There are several food companies that I would burn down if I could get that far away from the toilet for long enough.

I don’t think it really matters since Tommy Tuberville is not eligible to run for governor of the state of Alabama! It’s a shame even AL.com is glossing over that and reporting on him as if his candidacy itself isn’t against Alabama law.

I think the best idea is to delete your Amazon account and app entirely. Everyone in my family did it and we have not regretted it once. A minor inconvenience.

I had to. How could I resist a Hot Ghouls For Pusczek mug? C’mon man. It’s October! 🦇 🕷️ 💀 🕯️ 🌙 👻 Let’s get rid of Robert Aderholt. www.amandaforalabama.com @amandaforalabama.bsky.social
Photo increasingly-obviously-aged face hovering above a large white ceramic mug featuring a sexy witch riding a broomstick surrounded by the text, “HOT GHOULS FOR PUSCZEK” which I have clutched in my pasty hand. Behind me, trees and hydrangeas.

Good choice of the word ‘correlation,’ since we all know that the ‘causation’ is REPUBLICANS.

Why in the hell is anyone still giving those people money? Why in the hell does anyone still have an account? It’s disgusting and depressing seeing how many people are still using Amazon. Please get yourselves like ONE priority. Bezos is actively propping up a corrupt and genocidal fascist regime.

@samhainnight.bsky.social Wow you are revealing to me how many people on here are still giving fascist billionaire Jeff Bezos money and it is really depressing. Like what if you all just stopped using Amazon now that they’re propping up a murderous criminal regime? Y’all won’t even do that?

I said, “Edgar Allen PAW!” My boyfriend GROANED. I wish I was well-versed in Alabama politics, I was mostly just reading off the sample ballot, aside from the candidates I’ve met personally. Met Doug Jones at a Dems event in FYFFE attended by over 250 democracy-loving people. In FYFFE, ALABAMA!

Some progress was made. #Handpainted #SignPainter #AcrylicPainting
The same old worn wooden sign, with the word ‘garden’ painted in white, except now almost all of the little bugs, flowers, animals, et cetera are painted with at least a first coat of the basic colors they’ll be.  All around and above and below the letters there are tulips, bluebells, pansies, a sunflower, daisies, some kind of peachy pink vine like a clematis or something, and purple coneflowers, and various little critters like a ladybug, dragonfly, butterfly, chipmunk, turtle, snake.

I think it’s really important for people to actually see what their candidates, what their politicians are actually saying… but also to actually watch and listen to them say it, because Jesus H. Christ, that woman can barely even speak. She sounds like she’s half dead.

I tried so hard to watch that show. It’s too tense for me. There’s this constant feeling of dread. My heart rate just kept creeping up and up and up. Whatever it is they’re doing, they’re very good at it.

Oh my god, I once posted a 100% clean, not even slightly suggestive, totally normal unboxing video on YouTube. Just took a pair of shoes out of a box, put them on, talked about them. Didn't talk sexy, didn't even zoom in on my feet at all. Was wearing SLACKS. Taken down in under a day.

There is a number, we can argue about what it is, but there is a number, of people who have been killed specifically because Trump was allowed to take office again. Who would not have been killed if he wasn’t elected. I bet you wouldn’t say this bullshit to their families. Bye now.

You people keep trying to simplify it down to being “mad they’re not voting for MY candidate.” That is disingenuous at best. The govt disappearing people off the streets, sending people to Sudan to be tortured, taking away trans folks drivers licenses, etc, is all because Trump was allowed to win.
