I was shitposting about rubbish American politics this week and someone replied all cuntily “instead of just posting about it email your senator” so does anyone know the senator for Surrey?

once during the uk election i posted that i wasn't watching the debate (between starmer and sunak) because "i'm not voting for either of them" and good LORD did the americans flip their entire shit on me
And if you were American, how would they know you didn’t email your Senator?
It appears to be a very American trait to think that only Americans use the internet.
Sorry guys. We're all a little riled over here these days. I love seeing non American posts...it gives me hope that is hard to see here in the US right now. Apologies for taking Bluesky hostage...our media is shit now so we feel alone. Cheers!
I think they mistook you for being Canadian, Greenland-ian (what IS the term for Greenland residents?), or whomever else the Fascist Asshat™ plans to annex next and thus gain Congressional representation (in theory).
Tbf things are serious enough that we do need non-US people to be talking to their representatives and making it clear we need this to be called out in as explicit terms as possible. Encourage them to use the C word and to distinguish between Musk and the legitimate government.
my people really are so cunty. 🤦♀️Also, does she not know one can rant online while also contacting their senator? Some of us can do more than one thing. Hard to believe, I know.
All these f-ing leftists high on their own smug who think people can’t walk and chew gum at the same time… (ps I’m super leftist and I also understand you’re not in the US-just a rant).
Oh if you are from Canada I know who you MP is :) I guess they were pushing this Canada is already the 51st state. Though you could be from the UK, etc too They forget not all are from the US. <3
Apparently the Earl of Surrey is also the Duke of Norfolk, and he is in the House of Lords until they kick out the hereditaries, so you can lobby him there.
This is amazing. I remember talking to an American woman a few years ago about the area around where I live and I mentioned the New Forest. She genuinely said "Oh, I didn't realise that you had forests there." I don't know what she thought the UK was like. 🤣
We Americans don’t have the right to criticize anyone right now. We had the easiest retest in modern political history and failed it harder than the first time.
Bluesky needs to get its own thing because if I want to be lectured by people who think everyone is American on the Internet, I can already open up Reddit :(
On the very rare occasions a tweet of mine takes off, I reply to myself saying bruv, mate and 'chippy tea' just to hammer home the context to the yanks
Not all of us Americans are as stupid as that ignoramus. Sadly, the dumbest amongst us are a slight majority 😕. Even if you told them you were in the UK, they'd think you meant the University of Kentucky... An idiocracy has taken hold. Stay tuned because season 2 will have a new Civil War. 🍿 🍿 🍿
Politely it couldn't have been a cunt. They appear to be lacking the requisite warmth and depth. A cunt is also quite useful and a pleasure to get into. This person you speak of has none of these stellar qualities about them.
But fear not, England (not the UK: we don’t want the Welsh, Scots, Northern Irish or anyone from those weird small islands) will be the 52nd state once we’ve done annexing Canada. 🙄
I am SO bitterly jealous, first and foremost, as Norway does not have citizenship through descent. But also, grudgingly of course, deliriously joyful for you!
The UK citizen.. would have been better if they were still in the EU but I guess I'll take what I can get.Ive done immigration work& lived all over the world,so even though u cant get Norway citizenship,there are other types of visas etc u may be able to apply for which would give Longterm residency
Maureen Oldman is from Surrey. You could have Senator Mo Harris! Or Susie Dent (might be a better option). I did cheat and Google "famous people from Surrey".😁
Ahh but which part of Surrey? Surrey Heath or the Rest™️ of that rural shithole. Because Surrey Heath's got Brian Blessed. 99.9% certain he's a senator of sorts. Your move citizen of the lesser Surrey
Also just because you are shitposting, doesn’t mean you haven’t already emailed your Senator (for those of us who have one). Multitasking is a thing. Lol
I’m sure they do. Our legacy media is in cahoots with the comb-over king. The Guardian has done more to get the word out than has the Times (both L.A. and New York).

But I'm sure your political options aren't talking about mass genocide.
A third party president hasn't won since Abraham Lincoln. Which was around the time of the civil war and slavery in America.
Originally it was just going to split their votes and guarantee the Democrats success.
He was a Republican, one of the two major parties, and he got 180/303 votes.
If anything, Lincoln's election shows how we'll never have a viable 3rd party in US presidential politics.
He was a part of the Wide Awakes before joining the Republican party for their first election. My bad, thanks for correcting me!

Love it and is added to the “important vocab” brain space
i won't even ask for a MP in exchange.
There is a Surrey in both Virginia & North Carolina. That narrows down your options to Thom, Ted, Tim & Mark.

Clearly we need all the help we can get over here 😅
Trump is a threat to our country and the world.
This is everyone’s problems, guys. Sorry 😅
Every social media site covers 80+% of the WORLD. 🤦♀️
1. I'm from Austria, or
2. Australia doesn't exist and we're all just highly paid actors
or something.
My experience is limited. I’ve had a pet parrot but never a pet senator
Senators went thru as all calls did
not go through
Surrey sounds lovely.
Same goes for posts in German: Austria, Germany, Switzerland?
And don't mention Spanish! 😂
(Surrey North Dakota)
🤣 sry couldn’t resist
Fun fact: I almost brought a cheap flight from London to Calgary until I realised it was London, Canada to Calgary! 🤦🏾

Y’all can have him back 😂😂.
Mars can have him.

But as no senators came from Britain it’s unlikely.
There seems to be a big Pond in the way" !?!
As an aside, is "cuntily" something people say often in Surrey? My spell check tried to make it "curtly."
