Years ago someone I knew had a '61 Cadillac, which resembled the Batmobile. If t-tops had been cut into it (it was already less than pristine) it would have been very close.
I already voted about a week ago. Got a mail in ballot for California and dropped it off in a ballot collection box near a local grocery store.
The presidential election here is pretty much a done deal. Harris/Walz will win by a landslide.
However, there are ballot propositions here that are important. Like allowing prisoners to decide whether or not they want to work for peanuts while incarcerated, and enshrining a "Right to marry" in the CA state constitution.
Voted an hour ago. There was a very young woman voting for the first-time. Everyone applauded. The poll worker joked "Keep clapping, she’s not embarrassed enough." Don't know who she owed for, but it was such a sweet and hopeful moment.
Patrick Dillon, the target of Steven Cheung's Incel attack, called him a "malformed, swollen infected testicle on legs."
One of us, one of us!
I really like that phrasing, I think it ought to become a part of the official Wonkette stylebook, as in, "Trump spokestesticle Steven Cheung." What say you?
There's this thing that happens. Whenever I give $$ through ActBlue, I get a phishing message from a PayPal impersonator. One for one. Each fiver for Tester or Brown or whoever gets me one illiterate attempted phishing. It's like there's -- I dunno -- a connection, yeah, that's it, a causal connection between them. Anyone else observed this?
so, been having a bit of Wonkette withdrawal because Sunday evening I had to move from Temporary HQ to the homeless shelter. It's definitely...an experience. But no Wifi and I have no access via my phone so here I am at the library--thank goodness the buses are free today--getting my work done while also catching up on Commie Girl Enterprises means of production.
I'll post the first part of my initial impressions on the blog so you check it out (with an added episode from just this morning).
The shelter is way out in the sticks...let's put it this way, the neighbors are a low security level prison, a landfill, and the MonDay program which is where people from "drug court" go to detox. It's about a mile walk--uphill--to an intersection where there's a Dollar General and 2 gas stations.
I also have to vote so I'll work here until about 2:15, catch a bus to where I normally vote, then walk to catch another bus to pickup my prescription, then retrace the route back to the shelter.
If you check out the link on the Substack for my GoFundMe page, I'd appreciate it. I'd love to have $35-40 to get my phone back on.
Early equities markets reports are good. Up in Asia, mas o menos in Europe, and up in the USA. Investors appear confident that they don't need to roll out of stocks today. We'll see, but so far, so good.

And a meme chat: https://open.substack.com/chat/posts/d086b3fd-e32a-4cf9-a2e6-09e9b88653af?utm_source=share
Damn Martini, that's rough... ;>)
Wait -- we were supposed to vote?!?
EVERYBODY PANIC!!!
Love the .gif!!!!!
That would look good on my car. I call it The Batmobile, because it is black and uses BATteries

Before you start it, do you say, "Atomic batteries to power; turbines to speed"?
Right after I polish the wings.
That and because you dress in tights and a cape when your drive it. ;)
We manly men call them compression pants.
You know, I've seen him behind the wheel and... you're not entirely wrong! Me is definitely a hero in my book, though.
😅
Wonk Kitty Tabs are always good tabs!
Kitties should get an "I Vomited" sticker.
I want teh Wonkette Kitteh "I voted" sticker instead of that MD flag crab thing they give out around these parts!
We get a peach here in GA.
No diecut crap for us - round it is!
I got a rock.
I got log.
Everybody loves log!
You ALWAYS kill me--please don't stop.
mwah!
It looks like a fuzzy ass.
The best kind!

We get a lovely one here:

Also, crabs are cool creatures, in my most humble opinion.
Than San FranSticker is the best ever!
everything wants to become a crab.
We should note the manifest differences between being a 𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘣 and just being 𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘣𝘣𝘺...
I thought everybody wanted a rock to wrap a piece of string around.
Prosthetic foreheads FTW
Memo to myself:
- Do the dumb things I gotta do.
- Touch the puppet head.
Oh yes, I forgot about that!

Thank you so much for this!
I like the smug sea lion.

They are all about crabs here.

Here's to hoping those turn out alright.
I voted on October 21st!

I'll second the motion-
Donald Trump’s spokesweenus Steven Cheung is as ghastly-looking as the candidate he's pimping.

Trump really knows how to pick only the best.
Dang, that is not how I pictured him. Don't get me wrong- how I pictured him was pretty bad, but that is much worse.
On behalf of Pennsylvanians, I’d to ask that we find a different vitally important swing state for the next election. We’re exhausted.
Wisconsin, Arizona , and Michigan say "Hold my beer."
Like I said before, Tucker sees the real money is in pandering to conservative Christians. That’s all his comment about abortion hurricanes is.
As for Drunk Rudy running for mayor again?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
But at least Nikki can claim she didn’t abandon Trump this year when she makes her 2028 run.
My current state of mind: “ aaiiiieeee, aiiiieeee, aieeeeeeeeeeeeeee”

I have never had this issue. I have a standing donation for Raphael Warnock, though.
I have not, perhaps by going directly to the site to donate, instead of via email link? Thank you for your sacrifices! Vote 💙

I just donated. You have enough to turn your phone back on, and a little extra for bus rides and such. It's anonymous.
thank you very much. I cannot tell you how much my heart leapt when I got the email notice.
Put a link to your gofundme with your comments! Well, except comments are not allowed here, that could be a problem.

Hmmm...1000 comments in. Somebody's probably already linked this, but it's def. worth a read.

That was really good.
Yeah. I was frustrated in the past with our inability to keep focused during midterms so it really spoke to me.
Guess we'll call him Joey DeMannarino tomorrow.,
I'm done playing nice. I want him to cut off his balls when Kamala wins Iowa.
Apparently that's what he wants as well, <shruggy emoticon>
Joey UnMannarino
Stay cool everyone. Me? I'm headed off to some islands where maybe I can celebrate, or ignore the apocalypse for a while.
Safe travels!
Dooooo eeeeeeettttttt!
Ok so last night the bestie said she thought that tRump was gonna win and I am like no fucking way! Then I read about the bakery that can usually tell by the popularity of a cookie and they’ve sold more tRump cookies and then WaPo just had to bring up the Van Buren affect. Therefore rather doom scroll today, I am going to bury myself in a few books. My husband is meditating on the win and avoiding NPR.
I made the mistake of starting to listen to Pod Save America (why? They annoy me!) and there was lots of sighing and gloominess.
Maybe people were buying Trump cookies so they could smash them?
i actually love the pod save kids but they sure are gloomy gusses.
It would never occur to me to go to a bakery to buy political cookies to begin with.
I mean, if someone gave me a Harris cookie I would take it, but I'd rather make the Tasting History Election Cake today.
