Still alive - really really need to post & comment more.
I dislike politics, and kinda wish that tomorrow will be the end of it, but lets be honest, given our current circumstances it won't be. (I work with people with STRONG political views, so it's FUN at the moment - I am fine with people having strong views, but the rants are excessive and partly inappropriate given who we work for.....).
This weekend was a bit of a rollercoaster (had friend up for four days - went to a convention - same con as last year - seems to be cursed for a bad thing to happen one night of this con - second year, second time it's happened o.O) - sad we had another so soon :( but we aren't letting them win. (And certain people are stupid - and totally don't get the british mentality when it comes to these things. We stay strong, stay calm, and get on with things).
Crazy weather - mostly the high winds these last two days, done an amount of damage around me o.O
-
Bright side:
- Americans apparently don't know 'the floor is lava' (the manc guest DJ'd and yelled the floor is lava, leaving the two american guests abandoned on the dance floor while all the attendees were hanging off the stage/on tables/chairs - the guests were still miffed sunday)
-Saw Wonder Woman - AMAZING film - so pretty, great narrative, and amazing showcase of how to do a female superhero *draws hearts around*
It had good female representation - they got a range of POC supporting characters (played by appropriate actors), even if they couldn't get a lot in in other places. Really good.
-Our tadpoles mostly all have legs now! Lots of wee frogs!
