"... the hashtag has inspired several high profile mutants in the entertainment world, particularly mutant pop star Dazzler, to put up personal accounts of the discriminations they've faced growing up as mutants. However, the Mutant Liberation Front, or at least hackers claiming to be them, have seemingly hijacked the movement on several social media sites, using the hashtag while "doxxing", defined as "sharing the private personal information of an individual or group, anyone that has publicly spoken out against mutants. The internet has become a battleground like any city street..."
"... special diplomat Haller faced many questions arriving back in the United States today. She has stated she had no comments on Genosha's threat of war against the US. President Kelly's diplomatic relations with Genosha have largely been criticized as failures, and many in congress and in the public in general seem to be in favor of preparing for the inevitable..."
"... Reverend William Stryker, uncle to the late Donovan Zane, has lead a vigil lasting several days now on the steps of Congress and refuses to be moved until Mutant Registration has been passed. Public support is turning overwhelmingly in favor of registration as the nation mourns the young man, Donovan Zane, whose life was taken in the midst of a violent protest..."
"... with the coldest temperatures on record. Volunteers are urging everyone in District X to be extra careful as the season progresses, to regularly visit the shelters and soup kitchens, and to not try to brave the winter storms alone. They have also put out a mass call to anyone willing to help out, with food, blankets, and/or warm clothing..."
"... a nation on the brink of war. President Kelly addressed the nation saying that 2019 will not be a repeat of historical mistakes or tragedies. He says he refuses to believe the spirit of the American people are so willing to give in to bigotry and surrender to what is perceived as an inevitable war with Genosha. It can be stopped, he urged. He said we all have to look at ourselves and find the courage to do the right thing and love our fellow person, no matter what the circumstances. President Kelly continues to believe in his vision of hope for humans and mutants..."

[She will come back over for a sip of that cocoa. She may be used to cold winters but you never turn down a warm beverage]
no subject
Yes he likes being lazy like this. He also doesn't want to sit in the snow. He then lowers himself down on the ice.]
no subject
[And she skates back a few steps to sip it in peace, watching his utterly lazy display. Sometimes she wonders what he would do if he lost his powers.
Whine and pick her up with his hands more often]
You are ridiculous.
no subject
I was talking about boardgames, Maddie. Get your mind out of the gutter. [No he wasn't.] And I most certainly am not.
no subject
[She takes another sip and raises an eyebrow] And you certainly are ridiculous. You couldn't even tie your own skates.
no subject
[He skates over to her.]
Technically I did. I just happened to use my mind to do it instead of my hands.
no subject
Just like using your hands to tie your skates isn't.
no subject
It was, in the past. But why not make things easier for myself? Would you not do the same?
no subject
[She raises her eyebrows] I don't abuse my powers. And unfortunately, I don't have the ability to just steal them at will. Not all of us are so lucky.
no subject
It's hardly abuse. Everything I do is part of my training. [That includes lifting her up randomly, yes.]
no subject
[She twines her fingers with his and grins]
I think you use training as an excuse to do whatever you want.
