If you think the universe is demanding a piece of you, ask it if it wants to take it outside or if it wants to take it upstairs. At least you’ll find out what piece of you the universe is interested in.

Government disclosure: when they finally share the secret, but only after you’ve stopped caring.

Should I feel insulted that an article about ballot errors interviewed the person who told me years ago that my well-documented concerns about these errors were “de minimis”? I’m going to pretend I’m fine. Really.

Why are certain people on here so obsessed with my ex boyfriend? I haven’t thought about him for over a decade. Try it. It’s much healthier than the hyperbolic hysteria.

It’s 10:50 pm. Y’all are walking with me to the sketchy mini mart a quarter mile from here.

I really appreciate the response of the state and local election officials in explaining the issue 🗳 Polling place concerns: Voters report touchscreen issues at Tennessee voting machines newschannel5.com/news/state/…

Someone abandoned a huge aquarium on the street. Literally nothing wrong with it. Moo helped me haul it in and clean it. The turtle has a swinging new bachelor pad, and Moo no longer has to share a bathtub with Grumpy.

My teenagers are planning a baby shower for family friend. The guest list is gonna be lit, because half of the invited guests dated each other, the other half are related by blood or marriage and we can’t keep up with who’s still on good terms and who isn’t.

I got roped into making a goth baby shower cake for a friend. My kids are already on the hunt for frilly black onesies and diaper covers with skulls on them. This is going to be epic.

People are splitting hairs over the weirdest aspects of facial attractiveness. “Canthal tilt” is my new favorite.

What drives me batty about all the bad takes from people who came to the CAHSR fiasco party ten years too late is that they don’t get why people voted for it, or how long a plan had been in the works, only to be discarded and reinvented from first principles.

Check to make sure your state’s laws about postmarked ballots. Some states require a postmark to be accepted regardless of arrival date, others, like Florida, don’t accept postmarked ballots, there is a hard deadline and postmark won’t make a difference.
Replying to @baseballot
If you have to mail your ballot on Election Day, take it to the desk inside the post office. They can give you a manual postmark.

Iowa law requires election officials to initial each ballot before handing it to a voter. This is routine and do not affect your ballot’s validity. Your ballot will be counted. Questions? Contact your trusted election officials or visit voterready.iowa.gov #TrustedInfo2026

Of all the annoyances that can happen during voting hours, this is the one that objectively sucks. Dealt with two Early Voting power outages in 2018, one in 2022 on primary day. In FL. In August. No issues with voting equipment(backup battery FTW!)
“Power restored after outage disrupts early voting at Allen Public Library A power outage temporarily disrupted early voting at Allen Public Library Wednesday afternoon. Oncor restored electricity about 40 minutes later.” 📍 Texas

Screw it. All anyone does anymore is turn the crank for the outrage machine. I think I’m done making a good-faith effort to help people. Convince me otherwise.

Sometime in 1983, in the northwest Valley, an unknown prankster altered the "Valley Cir" sign (for Valley Circle Boulevard) to read "Valley Girl" -- a playful reference to the newly released movie of the same name. Like, omigod!

The @lacountyrrcc has (with several days notice this time) posted the schedule for the mobile and flex vote centers online. Since the Dodgers aren't in the World Series October 25 and 29 at Dodger Stadium or November 1 at SoFi stadium are options.

Hi. I’m Genya. When I’m not ranting about ballots behaving badly, I’m a purveyor of unhinged historical facts, cybersecurity scuttlebutt, and occasional fashion advice.
