    THank you all. A quick update, while there is a concussion, that appears to be the worst that has happened after they did the Catscan and X-rays.

    Also proofread them before handing them out to the students.  The most notable example I lived through was the electromagnetism class where the professor would work out the answers while we took the exam.  On one exam, fifteen minutes in, he goes, "Is anyone else having trouble with question three?"  To which the entire class* responded with a resounding and irritated "YES!!"
     
     
    * I think there were eight of us.  Might have been ten.

    Per Beau's breakdown above, probably the best outcome we could have hoped for under the circumstances.

    I think this was the perfect response to a GOP proposal to rename Dulles airport after Trump.

    I'm just disappointed that nobody pointed out that renaming an airport after him wasn't so out of bounds, either, as he's likely a flight risk.

    Yes, sort of?
     
    I created a longish list of known mutations and 'syndromes,' and a shorter list of super soldier serums and other mutates.
     
    I did a similar thing with super tech. And an even sketchier one with magic. 
     
    Together they constituted loose campaign limits based on the most common special effects.
     
    But they werent binding or anything, a mutant that didn't fit into an existing category just expanded the list.

    Yesterday marked six years of me never having to pretend to be a guy again, and today, like every March 31st, is International Transgender Day of Visibility, so it's a double celebration for me.
     
    Being visible as a trans person is important to me for two main reasons. For one, to remind non LGBTQ+ folks that people like me exist and are real people who are part of their communities. The other reason is to help older trans people who think that they're too old to transition know that it's never too late. I started my transition at fifty-two and it's still the best thing I've ever done for myself.
     
    So, like the title says, happy Trans Day of Visibility.
