Best ways to celebrate your country's independence?

In plaster
Yep, it takes me breaking something to get me back in front of the computer, about makes sense, huh?
So, yeah, I've still been flittering more and more offline, and sadly don't have much good news on that front to share, heck, even my homeland Scotland's got it bad right now with the whole Brexit thing going on over there
So, let's focus on the positives here, me and Jeri have been enjoying lots of time together? We all went to the town square together this week for the July 4th celebrations and they had like this en masse BBQ and fireworks and stuff and it was pretty great
Also, being off my feet means less workload at work, that I'll at least have some breathing room there?
Maybe it'll make me kick this gallery to put life back into it again, I've got a good backlog of pictures and art and stuff that folks have made for me that could be cool to attach stuff to?
Sins of the Wreckers is finally over, and sadly no patch on the original Last Stand of the Wreckers, so, at least I can let that rest easy now and return to wracking my emotions in a more positive way over More Than Meets the Eye and the events within there, lol
In fact, comic front-wise, outside of the cash in that is Civil War 2 in Marvel right about now, things have been going pretty great, Squirrel Girl has been awesome and so much so that I recently managed to get my hands on a Squirrel Girl funko to celebrate how cool she is
I did spend time looking at the box and lamenting it slightly, that basically she's part of this Girl Power collection of great Marvel Heroines, soooo, who else is in there? We've got Squirrel Girl herself, then She Hulk, Captain Marvel, Spider-Gwen, Spider-Gwen unmasked, Spider-Gwen... unhooded? Captain Marvel masked?
I'm a tiny bit let down that they went with the variations of the characters instead of using them for characters who really needed the recognition, I know Spider-Gwen is getting a HUGE shove from Marvel, but, y'know, it would have been awesome if we could have had Ms. Marvel - Kamala Khan is supposed to end up on the cartoon Avengers show sometime, right? - or, Moon Girl, or even Gamora, does she even have a Funko yet and she's like one of Marvel's most out of nowhere success stories for Guardians?
Ehhhh, ranty over, it's nice they have this at least and Doreen looks awesome in plastic form, she's a bobble head and even comes with a mini Bobble of her trusted squirrel sidekick Tippy Toe, lol, so it's fun just to have merchandise for her alongside her comic book series now
I don't think I need to share Magic related stuff at the moment, nothing massive has occurred of late to report, with Eldritch Moon on the rise, I'll be making sure I can get out to that at least, but I'm only saddened that my beloved werewolves aren't going to take front show there

At least plenty of Eldrazi and horror to be had, so we'll see how that goes in like two weeks time
Welp, need to make time to get creative but nothing coming right now, there's that weird restless feeling of wanting activity but not feeling able to rouse energy to do anything, and we just gave up Netflix, so can't even watch the Animaniacs there XP Welp! Time to go back through the box sets! How many hours is House on DVD again?

I WAS wondering if you had any thoughts on Eldritch moon, but I guess we can talk about it another time. In the meantime you just take care of yourself!
But, yeah, I would not mind the talking, even if I don't Skype if we can just note here?
Fingers crossed for you guys in the EU, I keep in touch with a lot of news coverers there and there seem to be like a dozen outs for Britain to stay but no one is taking them, it's basically looking like London wants to play Chicken right now
As for Revolution?
Don't worry about it, I follow James Roberts and he's assured this is a continuation, not a restart
The big two have done this a million times over to make 'new series', stamping number 1s on comics that have been going for months or years to try and attract folks who are intimidated by high numbered series backlog of stories they have t read
I doubt it'll do much for sales, but I'll still be reading
Oh and werewolves? You have peaked my interests.
Iunno, I still don't know if I feel much in the way of closure XP
Which is pretty much all I'll say about politics,
