SUPERHEROES LIVE WITH ME

 Gentle Readers . . . and Maxwell,

Who's that on the mantel? 


Let's take a closer look.

I took my action figure out of their boxes so they can roam free, ready to protect us. 

RBG has her gavel. Joe and Barack are holding hands. They haven't lost that lovin' feeling. I wish Kamala had her chucks on. 

I'd like to have Hillary, too, but she's sold out not available at the moment.

How I'd love to have Justice Ginsburg on the court again.

Did you watch the beginning of the Jan 6 hearings? Liz Cheney impressed me. Maybe she'll be worthy of becoming an action figure.

Infinities of love,

Janie Junebug

  1. You're funny. So many people, I think, are action figure worthy, and none of them wear capes.

  2. I love these! It made me giggle though because Obama doesn't look as happy to hold hands with Biden! LOL! Yes, Liz Cheney deserves her own figure too.

    1. I didn't notice that. Thanks for pointing it out. Obama looks kind of astonished and definitely unhappy about the hand holding. If I move them apart, will his expression change? Now that would be interesting.

  3. Love your mantle! One thing we must always be aware of is how “they” vote…

    1. Thank you, Nellie. I like to change its look every now and then.

  4. I watched the whole thing but the following day. Plan to watch Monday, too--but probably recorded again. Love your action figures--LOL! :)

  5. I think I'll hold out for the bobbleheads.

  6. I have always liked Liz Cheney. I have no qualms but admitting it. I may not always agree, but overall she is willing to view both sides of the coin. And she will nail balls to the wall. We are never going to have all Dems or all repubs in office. So we must learn to work together, and if we can't then nothing will ever get accomplished. I just adore your fireplace and the bobble heads.

    1. My problem with Liz Cheney has been the lack of compassion she's shown for her sister through her disapproval of gay rights. She's redeeming herself pretty well now.

    1. One action figure I would like to have is The Dude (The Big Lebowski). He's available on ebay, but used and without his accessories he's for sale for $80 or more. That's too much.

  8. I didn't know there was such a thing as political action figures. Pretty good likenesses! ☺ I watched a few highlights of the hearings on the news. Nice to see that some Republicans understand. Here's hoping the end result is a jail term for the Instigator in Chief!

    1. I became aware of the action figures when I saw RBG. I had to have her. I added the others very recently when the company made donations to Planned Parenthood for every figure purchased. Debbie, I don't think anything will ever be done about trump. He'll continue to cause trouble and make a mess of our country until the day he dies. Then some other idiot will take his place.

    2. That's a depressing thought, Janie! Honestly, and this must sound terrible, I am a little surprised that nobody has tried to shoot him yet.

    1. Thanks! You can't see the other part of the room, which is messy because I'm loading hundreds of books into boxes. I gave away 200-300 books last year and I'll give away even more this year. I love my books and take a lot of pride in them, but they should be out in the world so other people can read them now. I'll still have plenty of books when I'm done.

  10. If they had David Attenborough I might be tempted to buy one.

    1. I'd like to have Jane Goodall, with a chimp, of course.

  11. Hello Janie, I followed American politics at Ron Paul ;)

    This is Lisa of Live High ( I have to work on my Google account)

    1. I'm wondering what you mean by followed at Ron Paul. I'm not impressed by Ron Paul or his horrible son, Rand.

  12. Love Joe and Barack holding hands!!!
    I, too, am loving me some Liz Cheney and I NEVER thought I'd say that!

    1. She's done far more than I thought she would. It's not easy for Republicans to speak sense and stand up to trump.

  13. Yay! I have all of them they have released (yes, even including the former guy) and I have Stacey on pre-order. Liz Cheney is not a bad idea. I haven't taken them out of their packages but I should. So fun.

    1. I plan on moving them around. They might be on shelves sometimes and Joe and Barack might have a tiff and turn their backs on each other for a bit. I saw that the bad guy has sold out.

    1. I love them, especially the little gavel in RBG's hand.

  15. We could make a super court of our heroes, like football and basketball.

  16. I keep being impressed by Liz Cheney. She has principles and courage and a good head on her shoulders, and I hope she is appreciated in her lifetime and remembered well by history books.

    1. Yes, I hope she's remembered for her stance against trump, even though it has cost her.

    2. Thank you for sharing . I guess we need to give some recognition and respect afte all they are leaders.

    3. I wouldn't want bad guys on my mantle.

  17. I could have sworn I commented on this post but it's still showing up in my feed. I might be losing my mind, Janie. It's probably from all the time I've been spending in the sun in my garden. I love your collection! These are real-life superheroes!
