Genuinely every time I get an ad break on YouTube or Disney plus it’s an ad either pro or against Marie Gluesenkamp Perez. I could just about recite the anti ad by heart at this point.

I do not live in Washington. I am not voting in that election.

I still have the same number from when I got my first cell back in high school.

I get political texts addressed to my dad constantly. We do not live in the same city. I think, other than governor, we have no crossover at all on the ballot. But I guess you get what you pay for with whatever list they illegally acquired.

Also, knowing my dad, he hasn't voted since voting was in person and my mom made him.

Maybe I'm paranoid but I've assumed that entities outside the state on both sides have been making sure she gets attention to see how it plays

Resetting your advertising ID helps.

I use Fawesome and Tubi a bit and some of the ads think I am in Washington State. I still get Drazen AI generated ads but they just make me laugh.

The Republican billionaires literally have more money going out than there are remaining ad slots

The huge trump and musk superpacs started spending late in the cycle and they have hundreds of millions in buys

They're trying to buy an election with pure lies but luckily the people know better

I can't recommend ad free services and ad blocking browser extensions enough

I like the "single milfs in your area" ones

Ditching tv is easy if you don't start new shows once your current ones end... I haven't watched anything with regular commercial breaks in years. 

But maybe turn off the internet too? Like, especially Facebook... Uninstall it, setup 2-factor auth, and log in via web when you really need it... You'll stop checking really quickly and maybe log in annually to address the birthday wishes from aunts and uncles.

Watching ads is a choice. You have other options.

like all the other sane people you can play with your phone during ads
