I have no respect for the institution of democracy, but I do genuinely care about the views and opinions of those who follow me and share my taste for the Rose Race. It's been roughly two years since I started hosting contests for the Rose of the Month. For the span of April 2024 - March 2025, the following were chosen: daphne_scb 🇫🇷 Miss April 2024 Cristina Carmella 🇺🇸 Miss May 2024 Faith Collins 🇺🇸 Miss June 2024 Elisa Albanese 🇮🇹 Miss July 2024 sophiamoeu 🇭🇺 Miss August 2024 Larissa Opitz 🇩🇪 Miss September 2024 Maia Gabriele Rodrigues 🇧🇷 Miss October 2024 hey.its.rachel.b.too 🇺🇸 Miss November 2024 phoebeisginger Miss December 2024 Willo Marchais 🇫🇷 Miss January 2025 Meagan Caine 🇦🇺 Miss February 2025 Emily Deyt-Aysage Miss March 2025 If you were to choose, who would be your rose? Asima Sefić 🇧🇦 won for the People's Choice April 2023 - March 2024. Who will win this one?

Oops, thought it was multivote 🤷

Nope. One and only one. Surprised Cristina Carmella is taking an early lead, but perhaps it's too soon.

@TheEternalBungholio@poa.st I like Faith Collins' dress and the fluffiness of her hair. The picture was also well-made.

Indeed, she has that small town charm: https://poa.st/@TheEternalBungholio/posts/AjucokVEImo89VkcjY

Any chance we can get the names watermarked on the images in the future?

Alt-Text is easier, if you understand how it works.

I can't really tell which ones are pretty with all of the clothes in the way. Could you ask them to take their tops off and reshoot. And uh, also to please raise their arms...
