To those who happen upon here, hi I'm H (she/her) though some call me Apollo or Mod H or Mama H and this is a companion blog to @apolladay :)

Just a place to keep non poll content separate. Obviously the same rules apply meaning I reserve the right to not post anything I deem offensive to me or others.

Regarding this post:

Lol, I was wondering when it would be posted. For a second, I was wondering if I actually submitted it or if THAT was part of the dream (I woke up in a fugue state, frantically wrote it down and submitted it, then went back to sleep).

I still think it’s very funny, as are the responses.

Like, the fuckin’ phrasing of “Chat, did I fumble a baddie” about your OWN MOM is INSANE. It’s got me tearing up laughing even now as I’m writing this. Also the sheer obliviousness of the person who submitted it, not knowing why their family would be awkward and uncomfortable, not comprehending the situation at all. It’s so stupid.

It should go without saying that I do not condone incest. I think this was, like, the dream equivalent of an “intrusive thought”.

Sorry if this submitted twice, Tumblr bugged out the first time.

Dear Mod H,

Would you consider having the ask box open for a longer period of time, even if it was just an occasional thing? Ever since you switched to the weekends-only schedule, I feel like I don't have enough time for my polls to marinate in my brain. It's nice that it's predictable, but the weekend is over before I know it and I have to wait another week.

If not it's okay, I know you are trying to not be overwhelmed with polls

Signed,

Your faithful submitter

While I appreciate that I don't see it changing unfortunately. I open asks on the weekend simply because I have more time to scan through them to see if time sensitive things are waiting. And with running the poll tournament I've shortened it even more so sorry about that. The submission section is always open if that works for you.

[apolloanswers]

i just wanted to say thanks for running the poll blog

i like polls :)

Oh that's very kind of you to say thanks ☺️

[apolloanswers]

I'm tempted to submit a hyperspecific poll with all the options being "I submitted this poll" and they're all polls that I submitted, so I could "catch" everyone who doesn't answer honestly.

(Mostly as a joke but also I submitted a real one of those back when it was a thing and there were some options that were waaay too specific and it was almost impossible that anyone else would have experienced it, let alone a bunch of people, but that's what the results showed, and I was salty that the "none of these apply to me" percentage wasn't higher 😅)

Hi, this poll https://www.tumblr.com/apolladay/816886420878901248/are-you-boycotting-the-2026-eurovision-song?source=share is about an ongoing war but worded in a way that it's not clear that it is.

Very sneaky of the submitter to do that. Thanks for the heads up as I'm very unaware of that program. The poll has been deleted.

[apolloanswers]

[apolloanswers]

My actual mother is awful but you seem like a really sweet person, so Happy Mother's Day!

I'm sorry to hear that but thank you for the kind compliment 😊

[apolloanswers]

you’re reeeally dragging the basic emoji meme and posting non-poll related posts in your poll acc （＾∇＾）maybe post them in this alt account instead? thanks <3

No 🥸

[apolloanswers]

originally you were supposed to rb my poll with a preferably identical poll that was yours but i will admit it has gotten a bit self-fulfilling besides being a great place to share polls)

Was I supposed to read your mind about that?

[apolloanswers]

i noticed the submission dates aren't added to the polls anymore, is that correct?

There are most of the time. Sometimes I admit when I add submissions (not polls through the asks) I usually skip the date part.

[apolloanswers]

same anon about women characters i was just quoting billy eichner and being silly i unfortunately do not have enough money to give all of you </3 maybe i shouldn't have added that joke because i feel like that's what people latched onto instead of the real issue lol but anyway I LOVE WOMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

You include the promise of money people will take notice in my experience :)

So the poll isn't over yet but I wanted to go ahead and send this before I forgot lol

I submitted the fairly recent "do you know where I live based on my food" poll and I'm very proud to say there were several people who go it right (and a couple who knew exactly where I am lol) anyways I shall just leave you all with this copy/paste from Wikipedia 😌

Livermush is a Southern United States pork food product prepared using pig liver, parts of pig heads, cornmeal and spices. It is a regional dish that is common in ✨Western North Carolina✨. It has been suggested that livermush derives from scrapple. By law in North Carolina, the product must consist of at least 30% pig liver. Several festivals exist in North Carolina that are dedicated to the food.

Though sometimes considered the same as liver pudding, livermush generally contains more cornmeal and is coarser in texture. It is generally prepared using a different recipe than for liver pudding.

It has been suggested that livermush derives from scrapple, and likely originated from German settlers who traveled south through the Appalachian Mountains in the 1700s

As far as I'm aware Livermush is only made in NC! (Shelby actually but that's not where I live) And I found this out several years ago when some relatives from Michigan begged us to bring them some, along with several packs of Cheerwine 😂 (also made in NC, and no, it's never been alcoholic) up until then I just assumed everyone had it!

To the person who said they thought molasses was only an old timey western thing a) bless your heart* and b) I shall make you some of my grandmother's molassy cookies one day

To the person who said they could feel the peppermint burning their eyes, it's actually a cream-shine and it amazingly good and amazingly strong 😅 but the cream definitely cuts the peppermint enough to not burn

To all my fellow Appalachians out there hello I love you too :3

*this is said with genuine love and affection and is not secretly derogatory as people like to say it is.

Sorry I'm just seeing this Anon :)
