As with most high quality genre series, it really peaked in Season 3. But yeah, Season 6 has been pretty awesome so far. There are still 10 more episodes, coming back in summer.

@Coin: Well, hurry the fuck up, man!

Supergirl?

You should know better, @Coin! Teen Wolf.

When your favoritest tv show in the whole wide world hits every. single. one. of your headcanon points.

I'm walking around this morning screaming, "GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAL!" in my head like a football announcer.

Come to Arx, Twainfort has cookies.

Just when I thought I had resolved all of my character's problems...

Just when I thought she could finally settle into her life...

Arx's ST staff hands me an all new adventure and it fucking rocks my world.

@Ganymede Thank you. Fixed!

@Arkandel I will say you are doing yourself a disservice by avoiding Hidden Figures. I actually think it's a crime that Taraji Henson wasn't nominated for Best Actress.

Since they're officially on the roster, here's the info on House Riven:

Countess Mia Riven

Count Thesarin Riven

Lord Nigel Riven

Dame Esoka Greenblood

Dame Irisa Wainryte

Huge, HUGE shout out to @saosmash for writing these and working with me to come up with the premise of House Riven!

So probably sometime in the next week or two, characters will be added to the roster that belong to one of the counties underneath my character's March. I have an inkling of the personalities involved, so if you might be interested, hit me up and we can chat.

The non-Asian cast, I'm guessing?

They tell you it takes for the medicine to build up in the system, but I noticed a distinct difference in about a week. I do want to caution you - when I started, I actually experienced a massive anxiety attack, but I stuck with it and within a week, I was downright euphoric. I literally didn't know what it felt like to not feel depressed and anxious anymore until then. But this doesn't mean you will have the same anxiety experience - brain chemistry is like snowflakes. We are all snowflakes! I'm glad to hear it's working, regardless. You're doing great.

With the help of an online friend who's seriously into genealogy, I was able to discover more information about my paternal family line.

Turns out I am related to Jonathan Harrington, who died during the Battle of Lexington. I can be a Daughter of the American Revolution!

Delegation on Arx is the key to success.

My character runs a Ministry and as soon as she was able to pinpoint some particular issues of relevance, selected people to be Deputy Ministers who can devote their time to pursuing those issues. It's entirely probable that a third Deputy Minister position may open up.

On a complete tangent, I've created a page on the player wiki detailing her demesne, or as I like to call it, my liberal wet dream:

Deepwood Hold and the town of Old Oak.

I just figured, hey, I've got an intelligence officer, it would make sense for her to know him!

...and yes, he is dead sexy.

I'm not blind, but I am conscious of the idea that some people may like to jump to the conclusion that I might be doing this just so I can get my rocks off at the idea of having gotten into Andor's pants. I hate the whole shaming bullshit that comes with that attitude.

HA! Well, I am making an Alliance Intelligence operative. Not particularly looking to have been in his pants, tho.

I am tentatively considering my character previously having some tangential association with a Rogue One feature. Who is dead anyway, but I'm torn between "hey that would be a neat little hook" and "ugh, stop trying to be a snowflake, Cupcake".

"Why didn't these people vote?" he asked.

Who said they didn't?

taps nose, points to @Ganymede (Also, thank you too, Gany!)

@Gingerlily It's completely understandable that you wouldn't want to stress out your child. I don't know the specifics of the DC march, but in Seattle we had multiple exit/entrance points along the route, "peaceful marchers" with bright caps to offer assistance to anyone who needed it - like say, a stressed out child, and actually - hey, you might like this -

A little girl got lost during the rally. The speakers up front learned about it right away, and asked the crowd to look for her. Very calmly, people started calling for her, and within about 10-15 minutes, we had mother and daughter reunited up on the stage.

This was only one day, and one march. There's a lot you can do to help the causes you feel strongly about, and don't let anyone tell that any small way you can contribute isn't worth it or less important. If you can donate money? Donate money. If you can donate time? Donate time. Can't donate money or time? Posting info on your media accounts about these issues spreads awareness.

Preaching to the choir, I know. Thank you for your support!

Now they're saying 175,000 people! Insane.
