Text: PSA to anyone with a tree nut allergy who frequents starbucks. We have a new drink called the pistachio cold foam cold brew and our pistachio sauce not only has real pistachio in it, the syrup sticks inside the blender and will 100% not fully wash off with the rinsers we use (its just water). I highly suggest if you want a cold foam drink during Jan-March you request it done in a sanitized blender to lower the chance of having a reaction if you are at risk.

Alabama is set to execute a man Thursday evening who was convicted of killing his ex-girlfriend nearly three decades ago, despite a request from the victim’s family to spare his life.
Joe Nathan James Jr. is scheduled to receive a lethal injection at 6 p.m. CDT at a south Alabama prison. James was convicted and sentenced to death in the 1994 shooting death of Faith Hall, 26, in Birmingham. Hall's daughters have said they would rather James serve life in prison. But Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey said Wednesday she planned to let the execution proceed.
Prosecutors said James briefly dated Hall and that he became obsessed after she rejected him, stalking and harassing her for months before killing her. On Aug. 15, 1994, after Hall had been out shopping with a friend, James forced his way inside the friend's apartment, pulled a gun from his waistband and shot Hall three times, according to court documents.

A Jefferson County jury first convicted James of capital murder in 1996 and voted to recommend the death penalty, which a judge imposed. The conviction was overturned when a state appeals court ruled a judge had wrongly admitted some police reports into evidence. James was retried and again sentenced to death in 1999, when jurors rejected defense claims that he was under emotional duress at the time of the shooting.
Hall’s two daughters, who were 3 and 6 when their mother was killed, had said recently they would rather James serve life in prison.
"I just feel like we can’t play God. We can’t take a life. And it’s not going to bring my mom back," one of the daughters, Terryln Hall, told The Associated Press in a recent telephone interview.

"We thought about it and prayed about it, and we found it in ourselves to forgive him for what he did. We really wish there was something that we could do to stop it," Hall had said, adding the road to forgiveness was long.
"I did hate him. I did. And I know hate is such a strong feeling word, but I really did have hate in my heart. As I got older and realized, you can’t walk around with hate in your heart. You still got to live. And once I had kids of my own, you know, I can’t pass it down to my kids and have them walk around with hate in their hearts," she said.
Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall had urged Ivey to let the execution go forward, writing that "it is our obligation to ensure that justice is done for the people of Alabama."
"The jury in James’s case unanimously decided that his brutal murder of Faith Hall warranted a sentence of death," Marshall said.
In response to a reporter's question, Ivey said Wednesday she would not intervene.
"My staff and I have researched all the records and all the facts and there’s no reason to change the procedure or modify the outcome. The execution will go forward," she said.

James has acted as his own attorney in his bid to stop his execution, mailing handwritten lawsuits and appeal notices to the courts from death row. A lawyer on Wednesday filed the latest appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court on his behalf.
James asked justices for a stay, noting the opposition of Hall's family and arguing that Alabama did not give inmates adequate notice of their right to select an alternate execution method.
He argued that Alabama officials, after lawmakers approved nitrogen hypoxia as a new execution method, gave inmates only a brief window of time to select the new method and inmates did not know what was at stake when they were handed a selection form without any explanation. Alabama is not scheduling executions for inmates who selected nitrogen. The state has not developed a system for using nitrogen to carry out death sentences.
for bruce: what’s your favorite part about mexican culture?
for admin: you’ve made me the happiest person on earth by making bruce half mexican. please marry me already /pos
Hi there! Thank you for asking!
I have two, actually. One of them is Día de Muertos. For those who don’t know, it is a two day celebration (in some places, other days are included) of deceased loved ones. I usually set up an ofrendas for my mother, where I leave her favorite foods, photos of us, and perfumes she wore. She’s buried in Ohio, so I don’t really get the chance to spend time at her grave. Family members back at home, though, to take care of it and set up ofrendas there as well. At home, I usually spend time by her altar, just reminiscing. It’s a joyous holiday, but I can’t help but feel sad sometimes. It’s a very bittersweet time for me, considering everything that’s happened involving my mother, but nonetheless I’m happy to have a way of honoring her. She connected me to my culture growing up and I could never thank her enough. I’ve also caught Thor leaving food for her when he thinks I’m not looking, as well as talking to her photo, thanking her for everything she’s done for me.
My other favorite part of Mexican culture is the dance. Danza de los Viejitos, Danza de Venado (I have relatives of Yaqui decent), and Jarabe Tapatío are among my favorites. My mother actually brought me to her grandmother/my great grandmother’s home when I was around 5, and I got to see her (my mother) perform in a Jarabe Tapatío dance. She’d been a dancer growing up. I remember specifically the dress she wore, called la China Poblana. It was gorgeous. When we got back to my great grandmother’s house, I begged her to let me try it on. There’s a photo of little me wearing a dress that is far to large, and the ends of it spread out around me in a circle. I look upset that I didn’t fit, but I remember being happy to try it. I still have that dress, since it was given to me after my mother’s death by her relatives.
Admin: aww, I’m glad to make you happy! Hispanic Bruce is just a little headcanon of mine. There’s far to little positive Hispanic rep in media (including Marvel), and I hope to do right with my portrayal. Thank you for the proposal 😂 but in all seriousness, I appreciate your ask/enthusiasm :)
