Break tiny rules that make no difference so that you retrain your brain to remember that, ultimately, YOU'RE in charge, YOU decide what's right, not some government or external entity going against your morals.

Hey HBs! It's time for part 2! When we left you yesterday, our bloodthirsty baddies had just had sex for the first time while Nolan was super high on magic mushrooms that Harper slipped him. She told him to fuck her like he hates her and boy did he deliver. Now, he's crossed the emotional Rubicon and is ready to worship at her feet. Meanwhile, she coyote-uglied her way out of there as fast as possible and doesn't quite know what to do with herself. That's where we're jumping in! TW: depictions of caring for an elder loved one with dementia/Alzheimer's. Oh and, like, brutal murder, drowning, dismemberment, and more. Look, man, it's a Brynn Weaver book. Bonus Content: he's her Lancelot now and she's not getting the memo, tempting fate with an Amelia Earhart theme, preserving your crush in their greatest form, and so much more! Lady Loves: Sabrina: Real life connections. They'll be there for you every time. Mel: get your government documents in order! If you can, get an official copy of your birth certificate, get or update your passport, and CALL YOUR SENATOR and tell them to vote NO on this bullshit "Save America" act that's being pushed right now. The congressional switchboard is (202) 224-3121. This bill gets rid of mail-in voting, it requires people to register to vote IN PERSON, and they will have to provide "proof" of citizenship in which all names need to match up. So, a married woman who changed her name will not be able to register to vote if she  doesn't also have official documents that verify that change (marriage certificate, divorce decree, name change declaration, etc.). This boils down to an effort to stop women and impoverished people from voting. And it's a sneaky poll tax because all these documents cost money. Want to support the show?

Hey HBs! We're back! And we're back with some stabby energy because what could be better in this moment? We've got a Brynn Weaver spinoff that made all our dreams come true, and made Mel's gardening heart very jealous: TOURIST SEASON. It's book one in her new trilogy The Seasons of Carnage. She's a transplant taking over the mantle of "protecting" her new small town, one wood-chipped tourist at a time. He's a tourist who's determined to turn the tables on her and enact his revenge for the accident that killed his brother and ruined his life. But there's a magnetism neither of them can explain! TW: depictions of caring for an elder loved one with dementia/Alzheimer's. Oh and, like, brutal murder, drowning, dismemberment, and more. Look, man, it's a Brynn Weaver book. Bonus content: Cookie Monster impressions, Mel gets jealous of Harper's compost resources, BIRD watching because she's Harper STARLING, we've upgraded to a Cuck Couch here at HBHQ, and so much more!

Hey HBs! Today Sabrina and Mel are wrapping themselves in nostalgia blankets and recapping Semi-Charmed by Isabel Jordan. We're in a universe in which vamps have gone public and now our two MCs aren't allowed to hunt them anymore! She's a psychic, he's a slayer, and getting jobs that aren't "hunt vampires" has proven to be a bumpy road. If she can convince him to team up with her, maybe sparks will fly! Bonus Content: kid's ideas of bad words, why is dropping from a huge height and landing like a cat so sexy?, Sabrina thinks we can do this fast... hah!, Bloodthirsty Mel is back, Lil' Miss Broken Meter, and more! Episode Sponsor: THE SPITE DATE by Pippa Grant! It's an enemies-to-lovers, celebrity single dad and woman with a grudge, romcom that knocked our socks off! The hijinks and shenanigans are fantabulous! Check out Pippa's website for more info and her back catalog. Curious about the ridiculous faces we make? Subscribe and watch us on YOUTUBE!
