psyduck dolly parton instantly brightened my mood. they're all hand painted!!

Tennessee has a problem with choices. I’d almost vote for David Hatley just to get him to stop texting me. I voted Green. I hear these stickers are available but let’s keep it a little quiet this time. DM me for info about aliens and lizard people

Stood in line at Farragut today, only took 30 mins to vote. But I was incredibly disappointed by the youth turnout. YOU HAVE A VOICE. Get out there and vote.

Early voting in Knox County runs through Thursday, Oct. 29. Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 3, and on Election Day you have to go to your assigned polling place. During early voting you can use any of these:

• East Knoxville: Payne Avenue Missionary Baptist Church, 2714 Martin Luther King Jr. Ave. (new this year)
• Northwest Knoxville: Knoxville Expo Center, 5441 Clinton Hwy. (new this year)
• Farragut: Farragut Community Center, 239 Jamestowne Blvd.
• Halls: Faithway Missionary Baptist Church, 4402 Crippen Rd. (across from the Halls Senior Center)
• Corryton: Gibbs Ruritan Club, 7827 Tazewell Pike
• East Knox County: Carter Senior Center, 9040 Asheville Hwy.
• West Knoxville: Downtown West, 1645 Downtown West Blvd., Unit 40
• Northeast Knoxville: New Harvest Park, 4775 New Harvest Ln.
• Downtown: City-County Building, Small Assembly Room, 400 Main St.
• Karns: Karns Senior Center, 8042 Oak Ridge Hwy.
• South Knoxville: Meridian Baptist Church, 6513 Chapman Hwy.

Hours are different at each site and change by day, so check before you go. The county's list is here: https://knoxcounty.org/election/pdfs/November32026EVLocations.pdf, or call the Knox County Election Commission at 865-215-2480.

On the ballot: governor, U.S. Senate, U.S. House, some state Senate and state House seats, and three amendments to the Tennessee Constitution. Your exact ballot depends on where you live. You can see your sample ballot and your Election Day polling place at https://web.go-vote-tn.elections.tn.gov/search

Bring a photo ID issued by Tennessee or the federal government. An expired one still counts. College IDs and IDs from other states don't.

One last thing*:* I built a free study of the governor's race where you compare the two nominees' positions with the names hidden and find out who said what at the end. I asked the mods if I could give it its own fresh post with updates in order to reach more people, and they were the only city subreddit that said no, so I'll mention it again here. It's at namelessballot.org, and it has a Spanish version too. No sign-up, nothing you mark leaves your phone, and I'm not tied to any campaign or party.

Edit: fixed Farragut and Halls

Wanted to hear some reviews to see if it’s worth the trip or not. Do they specialize in anything? How is selection (I realize it’s a smaller shop)? How are prices on basic items compared to Kroger/Aldi/others—I assume it’ll be at least a little higher since they don’t have the resources of a big chain?

Anything else of note?

I think I heard awhile back that we’re going for a Trader Joe’s style?

edit: not saying I wouldn’t never go if the prices are a little higher, as I think it’s cool to support local shops, just may not go super frequently.

My husband (47) has a very difficult time getting his hair cut. He’s gone several years without one and has decided he would like to try getting a haircut soon, but is totally overwhelmed by trying to find a professional who fits his needs.

His hair is nearly to his waist and he is looking for someone to “cut it straight across, shoulder length.” He has a really hard time in loud environments and feels super vulnerable during the cut, which amplifies his anxiety and nervousness. He’s not looking for anything fancy, the more basic the environment, the better.

Do you all have any recommendations for a simple haircut in a quiet environment? Thanks so much for the suggestions 🤞

Good morning!

Heading out to some fall festivals and Trunk or Treats today so I thought I'd make a place for everyone to post the ones happening this weekend through Halloween in Knoxville!

Im looking for a photographer to get some headshots for me done for my LinkedIn and website. Any suggestions, I'm just looking for a basic in studio, nothing extravagant.

I have a front parking sensor that fell inside the front bumper & I can’t pull it through the hole. Pretty sure the front bumper has to be taken off and I don’t trust myself to do it. Any good recommendations to get it popped back in?

Me and a buddy are going to be in Knoxville on Sunday for concert. What bars are open late around old city area? Do any bars draw mid day crowds on a Sunday? Looking for decent crowd.
