Sorry, I got nothing life- or story update-wise to share. I just want to say this right here and now while there's still time:
For those of you living in the United States, are old enough and haven't done so already,
REGISTER TO VOTE!
I sincerely doubt anyone's come to a pony story website to be political, and chances are a good number of you have become exceptionally jaded and indifferent to the quagmire of this nation's current standing government. But unfortunately it was that jaded indifference that got the country into this sorry state: not enough people caring to come out to vote, thinking it makes no difference. Yet it does make a difference, and every one of those count.
And if you are a registered voter, then I beseech you to not vote Republican. Time and again they have shown they are more concerned about party dominance and their own short-term self-gain than the well-being of the country and its citizens. They ignore common sense and moral decency to maintain their grossly-biased status quo. With the midterms coming up, this can be an amazing chance to oust most of not all of them from those lofty seats of power with the very means that makes every one equal, be they great or small. Even if the damage they're already done is irreparable, it will still be a MASSIVE step in the right direction not to let this farce go on.
Sorry for the political ramble there, but I meant to say my peace on this matter right before the big day. If nothing else, just make sure you have that power to vote in hand if you're eligible. There's no harm in at least being able to exercise that right.
So yeah, however it goes, all the best to you and good night.
I'm just not sure how much better voting Democrat is, they seem equally as bad.

Nowhere as bad as the current Republicans. At this point, an idling government that hardly gets anything done would be better than one that's actively injuring and insulting the common citizen through stupidity and greed.
If nothing else, vote for a third party.
