I watched Jane the Virgin last night out of the blue, and I love it. I'm going back to watch the first season as soon as I can. The actress who plays Jane is fantastic.
I have no thoughts about medieval-era FAS, though.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Yay, Canada!
I’ve been so depressed lately over the Donald Trump thing, so thanks, Canada, for showing me that people won’t necessarily vote for the racist fuckface.

Frankly, I'm a bit ambivalent about him. We'll see how he does in power.
