I never miss an opportunity to vote. I have voted in every election and Republican primary since age eighteen, and for many years now I have voted oleh absentee ballot rather than on Election hari because I work as an election official on Election Day. This year's election (at least in Connecticut) is for municipal offices, and the election is this Tuesday, November 7.

I only vote for Republican candidates. But as sometimes happens, there was a position on my ballot this tahun without a Republican candidate, so when I recently completed my absentee ballot I decided to cast an ineligible write-in vote for that position. In some sebelumnya elections, I have written in real people atau issues as ineligible votes, but this tahun I chose to honor four cartoon characters and two ships with my vote for "Skilene WildeHopps." Skilene, of course, is in honor of Skipper and Marlene and their shipping name from PoM, while the WildeHopps part is in honor of Nick Wilde the rubah, fox and Judy Hopps the rabbit and their shipping name from the 2016 disney movie "Zootopia."lebih dari setahun yang lalu
My vote for Skilene WildeHopps, because it is not registered as a write-in candidate with the state, will never be officially counted atau acknowledged, but it will be seen oleh the officials who process absentee ballots. Likely they will have no idea that I, along with serious votes, cast an additional vote for a penguin, an otter, a fox, and a rabbit, but it will be a part of my personal history and my fandom history forever. #SkileneWildeHopps2017!lebih dari setahun yang lalu
I do have a Tumblr account (sjf-penguin). Probably 85% of my posts are Zootopia reblogs, 5% other reblogs, and 10% my own thoughts and contributions (Zootopia, some PoM, some politics, some miscellaneous). I avoid the Social Justice Warmonger end of Tumblr. I'm on DeviantArt (SJF-Penguin). I'm also on Twitter (@SJF_Penguin), where I tweet fandom-related things one minute, yell about politics the next, and play hashtag games in yet another. These are the biggest places.lebih dari setahun yang lalu
* In a special Comic-Con panel in 2011, King Julien made a call on his "MePhone." But Julien isn't the only one with a MePhone. There is a mobile service called MePhone in the "Sherlock" series.
* I will eat a bag of tortilla chips that says "produced with genetic engineering" and not care. I would not, however, eat a bag of Cheezy Dibbles if Kowalski messed with it. We all have our limits.
* Julien must cinta memes because the word "me" is in it twice.

* The song Alice sings in "Tangled in the Web" when she inadvertently wins the Internet popularity contest reminds me a little of Michael Jackson's "Bad." Specifically, the sound of Alice's "On the jungle scene / He is the funk machine / When they play that groove / He has got to move" sounds a bit similar to when Jackson sings, "Your butt is mine / Gonna tell anda right / Just tampil your face / In broad daylight."lebih dari setahun yang lalu
* Kid Walla, voiced oleh Tara Strong, may not be one specific kid but rather the group of kids in "Sting Operation." Wikipedia says the term "walla" means "a sound effect imitating the murmur of a crowd in the background."lebih dari setahun yang lalu
* In addition to having a female-dominant social system, real ring-tailed lemurs are also active only during daylight hours (so no all-night dance parties).lebih dari setahun yang lalu
* Saw "Hello, Dollface" recently. I wonder why Miss Perky's manufacturer chose to iklan on Shirtless Ninja Action Theater. Are there many viewers besides Rico who are into both boneka and shirtless ninjas?
* After nearly eight years of menulis PoM fanfics, I have decided to hang up my hat menulis for the fandom. My 21st and final PoM story, Off the Shelf, I published in June on FanFiction.net, DA, and AO3. It is now available on fanpop too, published today (July 1).

* I am slowly reviewing old notes of fandom things I had once thought about doing/contributing, to decide which things may still be worth adding to fanpop and other places. However, anything old that is not done oleh the end of the tahun I will probably never do. The fandom is so small now, a consequence of time that even Kowalski would have trouble stopping.lebih dari setahun yang lalu
I haven't diberikan anda a prop in forever and since I dropped oleh fanpop for a few minutes, I decided to give anda one.
This one's for all the wonderful PoM fics and the hard work anda put into them. anda made a substantial contribution to the fandom and I'm sure all fanguins former and current appreciate your efforts. Here's to a new chapter in your FanFiction career!

Thanks for the prop! And thanks for membaca my stories over the years. Thanks also to the penguins for making this all possible. I'm grateful for the opportunity I've had to contribute to our community, and I won't forget it. 🐧lebih dari setahun yang lalu
You're welcome! I look meneruskan, ke depan to seeing what anda do next. Good luck, although I'm sure you'll do fine without it. :) How did anda do the cute animal emoji, anyway? atau did anda reply on mobile? Just curious.lebih dari setahun yang lalu
The pinguin, penguin I originally copied from desktop Twitter. I've found that many other places, like Fanpop, will support the symbol.lebih dari setahun yang lalu
Someday America will have female presidents. But we should thank God every hari that Hillary Clinton won't be the first. We really dodged a bullet on Tuesday.
Donald Trump hasn't been a reliable conservative all his life. I voted for him (I only vote Republican), but I've often had mixed feelings about him. But as the man who beat Crooked Hillary in the biggest presidential election upset since "Dewey Defeats Truman," he at least deserves a clean slate . . .
