(Fade in)
(Moon Palace 1993)
Rita had watched the battle from the safety of her Lunar Fortress, she watched on in horror and awe as her most prized warrior was just about a step away from becoming evil monkey Swiss cheese. While Elsa watched in amusement as her plan was just about carried out according to plan, perhaps even better due to the recent appearance of the evil white ranger from the dino-rangers time. This little turn of events could be used for her plans of ruling the future,
"Look what your plan did to Goldar you retch!" Rita screamed at Elsa as soon as she was sure Goldar retreated,
"Oh please, Rita dear. You had to know that you can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs." Elsa responded casually and with a smile; which angered Rita,
"My minions are not pawns you harpy!" Rita yelled, getting tired of Rita's lack of vision Elsa decided to take her out of the picture and surprise attacked Rita with her sword,
"You know Rita dear, you seem cranky. Why don't you take nap?" Elsa said; after which she slowly moved her sword around Rita's minions nonverbally communicating what they already knew: she was in charge now.
"ahh you two, ehh Squishy, Baboon; take this tired, old witch to a nice comfy cell." Elsa commanded the weaker minions who were not too pleased that their names had been badly butchered. When suddenly the room filled with red lightning as it randomly struck different areas in the room creating smoke. When the light show was finished and the smoke began to clear, a figure glowing in red sitting in a chair appeared, and instantly everyone looked on in horror as they knew who had arrived and groveled the figure's feet.
"Who are you?" Elsa asked trying to not sound intimidated while standing in a defensive stance.
(Ranger Command Center 2004)
Everyone around Dr. Oliver's Kitchen table winced with pain as they felt as if someone cried out in pain and was suddenly at eternal peace,
"Oh what was that?" Jason said being the first to snap out of this feeling,
"Wait, you felt it too? I though it me because I ate too much" Rocky said,
"Will you stop worrying about stuffing you face, I think something really bad just happened." Trini said hotly,
"Guys I think someone just died." Hayley said very blankly,
"WHAT!?" everyone asked very excitedly,
"I don't know how to explain it but I've got a very bad feeling that something really bad just happened." Hayley answered just as blankly as before,
"If that's the case we need to hurry and figure out a way to bring everyone back" Billy said but right after he finished his sentence the house was filled with loud sirens,
"Ohhhh what is that noise?" Zach said covering his ears,
"It's the intruder alarm Billy, Trini. I need your help saving everything we've been working on, we need to move fast, everyone else meet us at your old Command Center in Angel Grove. I don't think Mesogog's control has reached there yet." Hayley explained,
"Wait? The old Command Center? It was destroyed with the turbo ranger powers." Kat said confused,
"Just go! There isn't time to explain now, GO!!" Hayley said as Trini, Billy, and herself ran downstairs to retrieve as much memory and tech in the lab, meanwhile upstairs the other rangers teleported out just in the nick of time as the sound of the entrances of the house were being rammed in.
(Ranger Command Center 1993)
Zordon and Alpha looked on in horror at the display of power Conner showed to try and protect Kira, but ultimately gave his life for the ones he cares about, about a second later the rangers teleported into the command center unmorphed with Conner's body in the arms of Tommy and Kira crying into Trent's shoulder,
"Zordon! Conner he's. . . he's-" Tommy said,
"YES I KNOW TOMMY, I TRULY AM DEEPLY SORRY FOR THE LOSS OF YOUR FRIEND'S LIFE." Zordon said with a deep solomness in his voice as Kira cried on Trent's shoulder for comfort as the other rangers tried to console the crying girl,
"Zordon, there has to be something you can do to-" Tommy tried,
"I AM DEEPLY SORRY TOMMY, BUT THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO TO HELP YOUR FRIEND. REMEMBER YOUR FRIEND AND HIS GREAT SACRIFICE TO KEEP YOU ALL SAFE." Zordon said as Kira cried harder thinking about how Conner sacrificed himself to save her. Then hey body was enveloped in red sparks as she stood for a moment and then collapsed into Trent's arms, both of which fell over as Kira's right hand fell over showing the source of the red sparks,
"Zordon what's happening to her?" Kim asked very concerned,
"IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THE COMBINATION OF THE TWO DINO-GEMS POWERS THAT YOUNG KIRA HAS IN HER POSESSION ARE TOO MUCH FOR HER TO HANDLE AT THE MOMENT. SHE WILL BE OK AS HER BODY ADAPTS TO THE INFLUX OF POWER." Zordon answered reassuringly, as Alpha wheeled over a sort of gurney for Kira to recuperate on. As she was placed on, everyone in the room looked down on the unconscious girl with deep concern as she looked just as peaceful as Conner's lifeless body.
(Ranger Command Center 2004)
Tini, Billy, and Hayley were down in Tommy's lab trying to save as much of the equipment and data as much as they could with the given situation of the house as safe as it was, was being invaded by Mesogog's foot troops,
"Trini hit that red button against the wall! Quick!" Hayley instructed,
"Ok" Trini said as she hit button with activated the final line of defense to the lab, all the of entrances were sealed by large heavy steel doors,
"Umm Hayley that's great and all, but how are we suppose to get out? You know they're just gonna wait for us to get out." Billy asked,
"Well that's where you two come in, I'll just teleport with you two too the rendezvous point." Hayley explained,
"Ok so where do we start?" Trini asked,
"Ok Billy I want you to start sending everything on the main computer to the server that is being shared right now, Trini I want you to start booby trapping the lab, there should be some explosives in that corner over there. And I'll start getting whatever equipment I can carry with me when we teleport, come on lets go. It wont take those guys long to break through those doors." Hayley instructed as she and the two former rangers scattered in the lab to try and save as much as they could before they had to destroy the lab.
(Moon Palace 1993)
As the dust smoke cleared there appeared to be a thrown with a large "Z" being the center symbol on the back, as it slowly span around it reveled that it was none other than Lord Zedd who was sitting in the thrown,
"Who are you?" Elsa asked defiantly while everyone else in the room bowed and groveled at Lord Zedd's feet,
"I, my dear am Lord Zedd." Zedd answered sounding angry at the fact that this outsider isn't bowing at his power,
"Oh . . .and you are who?" Elsa asked very sarcastically,
"Bow to me you harpy!" Zedd demanded as he struck Elsa with lightning from his staff,
"nuhhhhhhh" Elsa cried out as she used her sword to deflect the lightning blast, after a few seconds Zedd backed off his blast to Elsa,
"Hmm, you are indeed powerful. What is your name?" Zedd inquired,
"Hehe, my lord; I am Elsa, and I am from a future in which you don't exist." Elsa explained,
"What do you mean I don't exist in the future?!" Zedd yelled out in rage at the news,
"Well in the future you were defeated, and well though some chance of fate I have been thrown to this point in time. To give evil a second chance." Elsa explain as Zedd listened in delight as he could see where Elsa was going,
"And what of Rita Repulsa?" Zedd inquired,
"She lacked the vision to carry out the plan we had created to defeat the ranges once and for all. She had to be . . .Taken care of." Elsa explained,
"For all the best I suppose, so tell me about this plan and of the progress you have made Elsa." Zedd asked,
"Well we have successfully eliminated the red ranger from my time and I-" Elsa said as Zedd cut her off,
"Rangers from your time!!!" Zedd yelled out in rage,
"Umm yes my lord, a small complication to me being here. They came along for the ride." Elsa explained sheepishly,
"Ugh, well I suppose there is one less ranger to worry about then but there are still a mess more to worry about" Zedd resigned to the reality of things,
"As I was saying my lord, we have successfully eliminated the red ranger and I believe your white ranger is very disillusioned by it. In addition to this when the white ranger from my time morphed he was separated from his evil twin, which means we have another ally out there for us to-" Elsa said as the evil white dino ranger materialized out of thin air,
"My ears are ringing so that means you must be talking about Me.," the evil white ranger said very casually,
"How did you get in here undetected?! And who are you? A ranger" Zedd enquired as he raised his staff to attack,
"Now everyone take it easy, Zedd this is the evil white ranger I told you about; and this is his power, the power of invisibility. White ranger this is lord Zedd our new benefactor. Gentlemen lets try and play nice, we need each other." Elsa jumped in before things got out of hand.
"Well, what's the next phase of the plan?" Zedd asked,
"Well now that that's out of the way I'm out of here." The white ranger said as he turned invisible and was gone from the moon palace,
"No wait" Elsa called out but it was too late,
"Forget him, he's a lose cannon. What's next in the plan my dear?" Zedd asked,
"Well we just follow the same plan that we have been. Eliminate the weakest ranger" Elsa explained,
"And who is next on the list" Zedd asked,
"Well he is the leader, its . . ." Elsa said
(Angel Grove Mountain Range 2004)
Streaks of red, blue, yellow, pink, and black streaked across the sky and landed on a familiar rock formation,
"Wow I haven't been here since I first heard it was destroyed" Adam reminisced as he looked around at the ruins,
"Oh my god, I can't believe its gone" Kat said in disbelief as she surveyed the ruins,
"Man this is worse then I thought it was" Zach said in total disillusion, the group as disillusioned and in shock of the destruction of their command center. For the most part all of the past rangers didn't want to go see the ruins because they didn't want to remember it that way, however some did go back to pay their final respects to their fallen mentor and thought it was only natural to go back to the place where they first met him to do this. The group looked around and reminisced to they're times there, several moments went by in silence. Then streaks of blue and yellow landed next to the group as they were looking around the ruins of Zordon's command center,
"Oh man that was a close one." Hayley said as she let out a sigh of relief and whipped sweat from her forehead,
"Yeah I didn't think we'd make it" Trini said as she struggled to gain her composure,
"With everything that we saved and transferred, I'm sure we can find a way to bring Tommy and his team back." Billy added, as everyone looked at them thankful that they were able to join them safely,
"Hey Hayley I'm glad your safe, but why are we meeting here" Zach asked the same question that was on everyone's mind,
"Well if you all will follow me I will show you" Hayley explained as she went to the center of the ruins,
"Open Alpha Delta Tango Foxtrot 1 5 7 3" Hayley said to everyone's confusion, then suddenly,
"Password accepted, welcome Hayley. Password reset to next code" a computerized voice responded as a hidden door appeared and opened for Hayley,
"WOAH!!!" everyone yelled out as they saw what was happening around them,
"Come on guys come inside this is like an emergency bunker, not only is a spare command center but it is like a bunker and is ready for anything. Think of it as like a fortress." Hayley explained as she led them inside,
"Whoa" everyone said in amazement as they saw the new command center,
"A brand new command center beneath the ruins of the old command center, the perfect place to work under such extreme situations. No villain would think to look under the ruins of an old command center." Hayley said as she started to boot up the computers and lights. The room had a bit of a dark navy blue color on the walls and a grey hard tile floor, there was a large flat screen monitor on the wall to the left of the hidden entrance with computer consoles in front of them going along this wall towards the wall on the other side of the wall with smaller monitors corresponding to the consoles. There was a door next to the hidden entrance that lead to a panic room/sleeping quarters for any team or group to get a restful nights sleep without worrying about a midnight raid on their hidden base,
"Hayley this is phenomenal." Billy said in awe at the computer consoles,
"Hayley, how is this possible?" Jason asked,
"Well me and Tommy have been working on this ever since he found the dino gems, sorry for all the secrecy about this but if we ever needed this base the fewer people that knew about it would be best because then the chances of whatever villain is around find this base would be low" Hayley explained,
"Wow this place is great." Trini said,
"Yeah well let's get to work." Hayley said as her, Billy, and Trini began to work again while the others were getting settled in.
(Ranger command center 1993)
Everyone was gathered around Kira as she lay motionless on the table, suddenly the alarms blared signaling a massive disturbance,
"Oh man what could Astronima be planning now?!" Jason groaned,
"Wait Astronima? She isn't suppose to be here for at least five to six years from now, what is going on? And how does Jason know about her?" Tommy thought as he looked over at Jason,
"ey yi yi yi yi yi" Alpha cried out in distress,
"Alpha what is it?" Kim asked,
"Umm Zordon, I think you'd better explain this. It's the same anomaly" alpha explained hesitantly,
"YES ALPHA YOU ARE CORRECT, RANGERS EVER SINCE THE RANGERS FROM THE FUTURE FIRST CAME TO BE IN OUR TIME WE HAVE NOTICED A RIP IN THE FABERIC OF TIME AND I SUSPECT IT IS DUE THE CHANGE IN THE STATE OF MINDS OF OUR KIMBERLY AND TOMMY ALONG WITH THE ADDITION OF THE RANGERS FROM THE FUTURE. THE ALERT JUST NOW SIGNALED A NEW DEVELOPMENT IN THE SITUATION. I HYPOTHESIZE THAT ONCE THE RANGERS FROM THE FUTURE AND THE FUTURE KIMBERLY AND TOMMY RETURN TO THE FUTURE THAT THE RIFT IN TIME AND SPACE WILL BE REPAIRED AND THAT NO ONE WITH HAVE ANY RECOLECTION OF WHAT HAS TRANSPIRED." Zordon explained as another siren rent off,
"Oh Zoltar it seems like what appears to be an evil white ranger is destroying downtown Angel Grove" Alpha alerted Zoltar as the others faced the viewing globe and the rangers from the future along with Tommy flinched as they saw it was the ranger from their time,
"Man not this guy again" Ethan groaned,
"You know this guy rangers?" alpha asked,
"Yeah, he's a clone of our white ranger but he was engineered to be evil" Tommy explained,
"Rangers he is moving too fast and because of his power its too hard to track him, you will have to teleport to downtown and find him before he hurts anyone" alpha instructed, the rangers fell into position behind Jason and he reached for his mopher,
"LIGHTSPEED RESCUE" he called out as they began to morph,
"White tiger zord" Tommy called out,
"Mastodon" Adam called out but then suddenly turned back into Zach,
"Pterodactyl" Kim called out,
"Triceratops" Billy called out,
"Saber tooth tiger Trini called out and then suddenly changed into Aiesha,
"Tyrannosaurus" Jason called out as they were instantly transported to downtown Angel grove, they stuck together and search for a while yielding no positive results,
"Guys this isn't working, let's split up and try to find this guy" Tommy ordered and with that the rangers split up and went looking for the evil white ranger copy,
(Ranger command center 1993)
Meanwhile the remaining dino thunder rangers were getting restless just waiting around at the command center for Kira to get better,
"Alpha is there anything we can be doing for her?" Trent asked,
"I'm sorry rangers but she needs to come out of this on her own" alpha explained,
"Well we cant just sit here doing nothing" Ethan said getting a bit ansy from not doing anything productive in the light of Conner's death and now Kira's vegetative state,
"Well you could out and help the other rangers locate the renegade ranger from your time" alpha suggested,
"Anything is better then just waiting around and hoping something good could happen" Ethan surmised,
"Dino thunder power up" Ethan called up and was morphed and teleported to downtown Angel grove,
"White ranger dino power activate" Trent called out and was morphed and teleported as well.
(Somewhere downtown Angel Gove)
Tommy had been searching for a while and had not seen anything that looked like the ranger copy but he had an unshakeable feeling that he was being watched or followed, this feeling was growing in him and just nagging him so much that to make himself feel better he drew out is sword Saba and held it at the ready. Tommy walked like this for awhile then suddenly an innocent woman ran out in front of him making him almost attack out of just being startled,
"Get out of here and get to safety" He instructed as he back off from her, he kept walking and came to an open square area of downtown that had a glowing yellow line diving it in half as what he knew as Angel Grove and the other half he didn't recognize there was what looked like a newspaper building with half a sign that read "ly planet" and he didn't know what it meant but shrugged it off,
"Nice suit, but there is only room for only white ranger in this city. And your looking at him" it was the evil white ranger standing in front of Tommy across the square with his sword at the ready for a fight,
"We'll see about that" Tommy yelled out as he took a ready stance.

pride month challenge - day three - mistake trimberly - something’s kinda fishy
“I made a mistake. When are you going to forgive me?”
“A mistake?!” Trini dropped the breakfast dishes into the sink with a clatter before turning to face her girlfriend with her hands on her hips. “I was gone for four days! I trusted you!”
“And I told you I’m sorry! I’m so sorry, Trin.” Kim kept her distance, knowing better than to crowd Trini at the moment. “I’m going to fix it.”
“I don’t know if you can,” Trini said quietly. “It’s bad enough it happened, but then you tried to trick me that it didn’t.”
“I didn’t want to hurt you.”
“It’s too late for that,” Trini snapped.
“If you’ll just let me explain-”
“Explain what?! That I can’t trust you? That you can’t just be honest with me when you fuck up?”
“For god’s sake!” Kim threw her hands up in the air. “They were just fish!”
Trini slammed her hands down on the kitchen island between them. “They were my fish! I’ve had them since the day we moved out on our own!”
“They aren’t supposed to live long anyway, right?”
“Certainly not around you!”
“I tried, okay! I’m sorry!”
“I still don’t understand how you overfeed fish!! I told you exactly how much to feed them!”
“I didn’t want to starve them to death,” Kim defended. “I didn’t know they’d die from eating too much.”
“It’s not even the fact that you didn’t follow my instructions and killed them,” Trini said. “But you replaced them and pretended like nothing happened?”
“I didn’t think you’d notice. They’re just fish.”
“And the first things I’m responsible for on my own,” Trini added. “They don’t even look the same!”
“They don’t?” Kim blinked.
“No. Trent Reznor was a darker blue and James Hetfield was more yellow than orange.”
“Oh,” Kim said. She took a few steps closer to Trini but still left space between them. “I’m really sorry. In my defense, you know I killed two hamsters when I was a kid before my parents outlawed pets.”
“You’re right. It was my mistake not asking one of the guys to come over and check on the fish.”
“I understand you’re upset and disappointed in me, but I don’t get why you’re this mad,” Kim said. “It’s not like it was two dogs.”
“Would you have killed them, too? Or a baby?”
“A baby?” Kim shook her head. “Where did that come from?”
“I know we’re still young and haven’t talked about it, but I wanna be a mom one day. In five years...or in ten...and I’ve been thinkin’ about how I wanna do it with you. But how can I when you can’t even take care of pets?”
Kim moved to Trini’s side and placed a hand over one of hers on the countertop. “There’s a huge difference between a fish and a real, live human child,” she said. “Would I be the perfect mom? No. Far from it. But I think it’s something we’d learn together. I never even thought it was something I wanted, but with you I do. This mistake doesn’t mean that you can’t keep dreaming about having a baby with me, Trin. I don’t want you to.”
Trini sighed and stood up, turning her hand to hold Kim’s. “I...shouldn’t have implied you’d be a bad mom. I know you’d be a great one. I just...I don’t want us being the couple that lies and tricks each other. And, yeah, the disappointment that you couldn’t do that one thing for me hurts, but...maybe I got more mad than I shoulda.”
“No. You had a right to be mad. I shouldn’t have lied and tried to trick you with new fish. I just didn’t want to let you down. I love you. When we moved in here out of the dorms we promised each other we were in this for good until we have rings to prove it, and I still am. Even on days you hate me.”
“I don’t hate you, Princess,” Trini said softly. She moved her arms around Kim’s neck. “Not for a second.”
“And you know, I think my problem is I’ve only been around pets that aren’t...interactive. What if we...picked out a kitten? I can start my mom practice early.”
“A kitten that I’d be taking care of?”
“No. We both would. Maybe if I had a connection with a pet it’d be easier to take care of it’s needs.”
“That kinda makes sense…”
“It’s Saturday, I’m sure we could find an adoption drive somewhere. To look, at least.”
“You really wanna get a cat with me?” Trini asked, staring up into Kim’s eyes.
“Yeah, I do,” Kim nodded. 
“I think we could go look.”
“I do have one condition,” Kim said.
“What’s that?”
“We’re not naming him or her after some musician.”
“And what were your hamsters names?”
“Hammy One and Hammy Two.”
“How original,” Trini drawled.
“Do you forgive me?”
Trini cupped Kim’s cheek and pulled her down close to her lips. “I forgive you, Princess, but that doesn’t mean I won’t remind you from time to time over the years.” And she kissed her.

Power Rangers Beast Morphers season 2 theory
So... Beast Morphers season 2. Basically all we know about it is that the idea of the Dino War will be used and that the Beast Morphers rangers will gain the Beast-X mode, otherwise known as Powered Custom. The former- the Dino War- is what I want to talk about.
Evox's thing is that he wants to take over the Morphin Grid, right? I was wondering how that would tie in to the Dino War, but then I realized that the dinosaur teams have the oldest connections to the grid (at least from our point of view)- the Mighty Morphin' powerset is at least 10,000 years old, the Dino Gems arrived on Earth in the meteor shower that brought around the end of the dinosaurs, and the Energems are what caused the meteors in the first place. That means that these connections form the root of the Grid, and that if these are disrupted, the whole Grid would be shaken, and it's more likely than not that other teams (i.e. Beast Morphers) would be affected as well.
This is how I envision the Dino War coming about:
Jason Lee Scott, the first Mighty Morphin' Red, comes to the Beast Morphers team to tell them that his team has been feeling that there is something wrong lately. (Their powers were restored during the Legendary Battle.) He's heard from Tommy Oliver, who was also on the Dino Thunder team, that his team is also feeling that their connection to the Grid has become shaky. Jason suspects that the disturbance may have something to do with Evox, seeing as the Grid is metaphysical and can only really be entered by non-living beings.
Cut to the Cyber Dimension, where Roxy is gloating about her plan to Blaze. Apparently Evox figured out how to send a small amount of his virus into the Grid, but only enough to disrupt the connection of several teams and no more. Her idea was that Evox, instead of blocking the Beast Morphers team's connection as he originally intended to do, should disrupt the connections of the dinosaur teams, which are the oldest and sort of form the base of the Morphin Grid. Roxy believes that should these connections fall apart, the whole Grid would start to unravel, making all the connections stop working and letting Evox take over the Grid with no resistance. Blaze agrees that it is a good idea, but that there is no telling if the Beast Morphers rangers will be able to figure out what's up.
Back to Grid Battleforce. Nate, in accordance with the info he recieved from Jason, creates a holographic model of the Grid and discovers that three of the connections are unraveling- the three that form the core of the Morphin Grid. Ravi quickly catches on to the fact that two of the connections are those of Mighty Morphin' and Dino Thunder, but it's Devon who supplies that the third is that of Dino Charge. As he explains about the Dino Charge world, a portal opens and reveals four of the Dino Charge rangers: Tyler, Chase, Koda and Ivan. Chase explains that their dino chargers have stopped working almost entirely, and that Keeper had confirmed that the source was the main world, so they used Koda's transportal device to get there.
After Zoey and Nate try to explain what's going on, Devon pulls Jason and Tyler aside for a strategy meeting, but they're interrupted by a monster attack. It turns out that the attackers are avatars of the dino teams' nemeses- Sledge, Mesogog and Rita Repulsa- accompanied by a distorted version of Goldar. Chase, Koda and Ivan head out to battle them, and are joined in short order by Ethan, Kimberly and Billy. (Yep, this is how I'm using that scene from the trailer.) Meanwhile, the Beast Morphers team, Tyler and Jason discuss how to rejoin the dino teams to the Morphin Grid.
When Blaze and Roxy see that the dino rangers still have their powers (they forgot that they could only disrupt, not disconnect) they freak, and get to the battlefield as soon as possible. Zoey, Ravi and Steel head out to help the other rangers while Nate works on something that might help reconnect the rangers to the Grid and the red rangers talk strategy. After a while the red rangers head out to the battle, and they can't help but be surprised by the chaos. Some time later, Nate gets his "Eureka" moment and manages to restore the Grid, allowing some of the other dino rangers to join the battle- Aisha (because nobody can find Trini, or Tommy for whatever reason, or Trent), Zack, Conner and Kira. Somehow Riley and Shelby have figured out how to make another transportal device (Tyler isn't surprised at all- aside from Kendall, they're the two smartest people he knows) because they also join the battle at the last minute.
Evox, enraged at his plan being foiled, has Scrozzle send down a bunch of gigadrones in order to defeat the rangers that way. Tyler, Koda and Shelby open a portal and call their zords through, and the Beast Morphers rangers also call in their zords- but then Zoey remembers that the Mighty Morphin' and Dino Thunder zords were destroyed. Nate comforts her and figures out that if Jason and Conner imbue some of their energy into one of Tyler's dino chargers, manifestations of their zords- and through them, their megazords- should be able to appear. Everything goes according to plan, and all of the gigadrones are defeated, so the rangers say their goodbyes and go their seperate ways.
In the Cyber Dimension, Evox rages at Roxy because her plan failed and swears to utterly destroy the dino rangers as soon as he has control of the Morphin Grid.
So that's my idea for the Dino War. What do you think?

youtube
Kelly Clarkson released her second holiday album in 2021, and her team as well as several media outlets named her the new Queen of Christmas...instead of Mariah Carey. This episode of Trini Trent TV uses this as a case study to explore how Mariah first got the title and the importance it has for her career. 
We'll also take a look at the significance of honorific titles for black artists, what happens when their contributions to pop music is diminished, and the limits put on their success.

Salutatory Speech.
So as Salutatorian, I was told I would have to write a speech focused on the history... I find that a bit challenging, but here it goes.
A very long time ago, the universe did not exist. There was infinite mass and density, and said universe couldn’t take it, so there was a boom. A big bang of sorts…
Then in the late 90’s and early 2000’s we were born. One of us, in fact, was born on this very day. I want to wish Alicia Hernandez a happy birthday. (sing alicia happy birthday)
So we were born. Our worries were few, but substantial. Two of my personal struggles included catching the next spongebob episode and drinking chocolate milk too fast.
We started pre-school. My only memory from there is getting sick on one too many pigs in a blanket. We met some of our first friends here. Simple times.
2004 - Facebook was created.
2005 - Youtube was created.
Then we started Elementary school. I was at east ridge. Our worries here included getting the last breakfast pizza that was left over because “adam wasn’t here and he would want me to have it.” They included  obsessively cramming for spelling tests, memorizing multiplication facts,  and taking our first TAKS test. TAKS test. Feel old yet?
2006 - Twitter was created
We moved onto 4th grade at SIS… The turf wars began. And for the folks that don’t know, there were two different elementary schools that brought up Kindergarten through 3rd grade. And then these two schools would feed into SIS, Sweetwater Intermediate School. This was our world now. Where we came from defined a person… were you from east ridge, or were you from south east? And I’m ending the beef now, East Ridge was the better of the two. Only kidding! It didn’t matter. There were good things from both schools. I’m just glad that hating and judging people from where they’re from is only something 4th and 5th graders do.
I digress. We’d rack up AR Points ca ching! We’d party like the year we were born… Flamingo fling. Not many worries, but we were still in a hurry, learning about history and Martin Luther King. And those days remained romanticized because again, our biggest concerns only included passing a TAKS test and… our first puberty class.
2010 - Instagram was created
Speaking of puberty, here came middle school. Oh my God. Puberty was like Everyone telling you to look both ways before crossing the street to watch for cars and then a falcon swoops down from the sky and attacks you. Folks I thought that was it for us. As soon as coach Huskey said “Let’s go hit that creek” I recall thinking to myself “yeah I’m going to die in the next few hours.” I found my passion: Band. I also found what I thought was my passion: Football. I remember one day Kiante hit me and I was like “I don’t think I like this very much.” Life got real. Technology took off. We all got phones, social media, iPads. Remember how cool we thought we looked with all of our decent selfies  camwow retro logo in the bottom left? Instagram, Snapchat, facebook, tumblr (lowkey though), Jokebox, iFunny, Youtube, and for the first time, We stopped going to older people for help and we got online and googled it. We were the pioneer generation that was raised by technology. Surrounded by information in the times of our lives when we needed it the most. We began to comprehend the different weights of life. As a middle schooler I pulled a few all-nighters to finish projects and homework… I may or may not have procrastinated on. Our priority list was fine tuned. School and extracurricular were up there now. But memes, relationships, and social media were among them as well.
2012 - Vine was created
Then came High School. lots of smells in high school have you noticed that? The big room smells like shredded tires and hard work and dedication with a hint of Trent tears scattered here and there. You could always tell when bunsen burners were on because the science hall always smelled unpleasant. And Mrs. Melendez’s room when she would burn those Orange Buttercream Scenses that smell like fruity pebbles oh my god.
Smells like the big room, bunsen burners, teen spirit, and those scense’s are the things I think I’ll remember the most.
I learned a few important things in my time in High school that I’d like to share with you.
Freshman year I learned that if you’re unhappy in your situation, you have the ability to change it. Whether it be relationships, extracurricular, or any aspect of life, you can change it. I also learned that social media can be a cruel blackhole, that can distort views, reputations, and relationships. Even more so today. Tread carefully.
Sophomore year, I learned the true value of hard work thanks to Mrs. Judith Brentz. She taught us many valuable lessons, the most important being “how to use our heads for something more than keeping your ears apart.” I also got my first B… Thanks Mrs. Mac. I also got my second B… Thanks Mrs. Brentz. I also learned how to rid my life of toxic people, and for the first time I began to see the world for what it really was. All the variables, and the factors that can play into what, when, why, and how we think the things we think.
Junior year was the toughest for me. Between band, Round 2 of Brentz for chem 2, Coach Mayes, Work, and family…. It taught me that you can’t do everything you want to, and at the same time get enough sleep. I also learned that it’s healthy to rock the boat every now and then. You’ll either get humbled, humble someone else, or if conditions are just right, a healthy mix of the two.
I also learned probably the most important lesson I’ve learned thus far. This applies to everyone listening, Teachers, families, current students, etc. If you don’t get anything about my longwinded speech, please hear this.
My junior year, I stopped worrying about grades, and I started doing the best I could to learn and retain everything that was being taught to me. Numbers are just Numbers. But what we should understand is that we have the world’s most powerful computer between our ears, and once we start using it, we become unstoppable. There are people that will disagree with what I’m about to say, but stop trying ace tests. Stop trying to do the bare minimum to get by. Learn and retain the information, and those good grades will come. I guarantee it. And class of 2018, it’s not too late to apply to your lives. Whether you’re going to college or not, this is a fundamental principle that can be applied across the board, and I encourage you to do so.
Alright back to jokes.
My senior year I learned lots. Like how you can overcook a TV Dinner and still get food poisoning, ruining your chance for perfect attendance that year. Once I started seeing colleges I started learning how a world that I thought was so big is about a whole lot bigger. I learned that if you fall asleep exactly 47 minutes before the first bell, you’ll wake up and be in a sour mood the entire day. I learned that once people figure out that you’re doing a speech at graduation, everyone wants a shout out. I also learned that you can market shoutouts and get a headstart on paying tuition by selling them for a dollar a piece. I also learned that I should've thought of that sooner and not just the night before I gave the speech. Nobody bought shoutouts. (this was what was originally written, but nick gomez bought a shoutout lol)
But our priority list is strict now. When we have to be where and with who? Some of us are paying bills, we have to worry about finances, college tuition, student loans, our next meal, car payments, gas money, textbooks, toothpaste, medical, dental, water, electrical, internet, phone bills. Oh my God I thought I wanted to be an adult but this isn’t what I meant. Of course, those are all things we should be concerned about.
I for one have my priorities just a little bit different
My biggest worries are still catching the latest episode of spongebob and drinking chocolate milk at the right speed.
So welcome. I hope you enjoy tonight's ceremonies. I’m going to wrap this up with a few thank yous, and we’ll get on with it.
Thank you God, for the many blessings you’ve laid upon my life as well as the blessings you’ve given my friends and family. I know I tick you off sometimes, so, I just ask that you’ll bear with me. I’m still learning
Thank you to my dad. You’ve taught me a lot. The most memorable being the wisdom you passed on from my grandmother in heaven… To never take life too seriously.
Thanks momma. You make me laugh like no one else can. And you get me the way no one else can. You can bet everything you say I’m gonna steal and make it my own. I love you.
Marlee, you’re the only one that gets me emotional anymore. I’m so proud of you. I once described you to a friend as a little packet of sunshine that grew arms, legs, and a face, and now you just walk around spreading happiness and joy. I’m glad you made your own path and didn’t follow in my footsteps. I know you’ll continue to make me proud with everything that you do.
Band - Thank you for giving me a place I belong. I’m odd, and yall were okay with it. Without you, I wouldn’t be standing up here.
Directors - Thanks for making me feel at home. I still cant wait to call yall by yall’s first names here in about an hour.
Teachers and Administrators - Thank you for bearing with me. I know I was a thorn in yall’s side from time to time with scandalous assignments and requests. And Mrs. Reyes and Mrs. Little… I made it.
(With the exception of what’s bolded, the other shoutouts made were ad-libbed and did not have a concrete order. I recall thanking other teachers, friends, and family, and shouting out nick gomez, lauren rodriguez, and trini and bell.)
And last but not least, I’d like to thank Jeff Stein and Richard Ferguson for keeping me on their staff after numerous hiccups on 96.7 FM, 1240 AM, KXOX. Good times, great country. For the job opportunity you’ve given me, you helped ease the financial stress that comes from being a poor high schooler, and a soon to be college student. I cant thank you enough.
And in closing. Heed this warning, everyone listening.
We are strong.
We are persistent.
We are mustangs.
We will go on.
We will succeed.
We will prosper.
We are coming.
We are graduating
We are the Class of 2018.
Thank you, and God Bless.

Chris Brown vs. Drake: Even Pop-Tarts and Toaster Strudels have a more interesting beef

What have we gotten so far out of Chris Brown and Drake’s beef? There’s been a lot of speculation as to just where Rihanna’s heart lies, nightclub incidents with broken bottles and minor injuries and now a Chris Brown diss track.
Twitter has been comparing this feud to other famous feuds throughout history, and it seems Chris Brown and Drake’s recent battle isn’t ranking too high on the all-time list. With the hashtag #BeefsBetterThanDrakeAndChrisBrowns, people listed some very amusing choices for more captivating stand-offs:

If there’s one thing we can all take from this it’s that, if Chris Brown and Drake really want a monumental beef, they might need to step it up a bit.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!! 25 Things I've Learned in 25 Years
Yes, today is my birthday. Today is my 25th birthday! I've made it to 25 years. And in those 25 years, my life has taken some twists, turns, ups and downs. Some moments I'm so very proud of, others not so much. And there are more moments that I look back on and go, "Wow, this is really my life." Well, before I get too emotional, I want to talk about the 25 things I've learned in 25 years of life. 
25. Not everything is going to work out the way you want. And that's ok. I haven't done much in my life yet, but I've lived long enough to know that some things don't always work out. Before, I've felt defeated that some things didn't work out the way I wanted. But then the most interesting things happen when new things appear. 
24. Friends are great, but family is better. I'll admit, I don't have a lot of friends. In fact, my two closest friends cant even celebrate my birthday with me until the weekend. But my mom, dad, and other relatives can, in any way shape or form. Friends come and go, but family can always be here to stay. 
23. Family is great, but friends are needed. Also, I'll flip the script; family is great to have, but when you don't have a good family or members who aren't as supportive, a safe haven of friends is good enough. 
22. "Me time" is very important. 
21. There's no such thing as a "dream job". Back when I first got into college, I was so sure that I would become the best writer/journalist/producer/etc. But then a lot of personal issues happened, and I'm now in a place in my life where I'm not sure what'll happen next. But I'm having fun finding my way, different avenues to try where I know I'll belong. The dream job BS is no longer on my radar, because it doesn't exist. 
20. College isn't for everybody. My dad still thinks that education and a college degree is most needed to succeed in life. But that's not for everybody, especially where mental health and learning disabilities are concerned. There is more than one way to achieve something. 
19. It's ok to change it up a little bit!
18. Ask for help if you need it. 
17. Communication is key. 
16. Podcasts are my new best friend! I'm still a YouTube junkie, but I've been into so many incredible podcasts lately, like Black Girl Nerds; For the Culture Podcast; Alright, Okay; Grace Helbig's Not Too Deep; Trini Trent Radio. I find that they more expand on social issues than videos do. Also, I don't need to sit and watch a podcast if it's just audio. I can listen and relax while doing something else. 
14. Budget everything. 
13. Facebook is the devil, Twitter and IG are where it's at! I love me all of social media, but I'm more attached to Twitter and Instagram. Sorry, Facebook!
12. Use that block button! 
11. You're never too old to fangirl/be apart of fandoms. 
10. Don't separate the art from the artist. 
9. Meditate and /or pray. 
8. Take care of your mental health. 
7. Talk about your mental health. 
6. Love who you love. 
5. Be your own biggest fan. 
4. Anxiety will try to kill you, but it won't. I have anxiety (mostly anxious moments) where I've felt like my world is ending. But when the moment passes, I'm okay again. Not completely whole, but better than before. 
3. Diversity matters. Correct representation matters. 
2. It's not where you come from, it's where you belong. Ok, so I stole this line from The Fosters but it's true. You could have the roughest background, or hardest upbringing, and still come up on top. I was born premature, I wasn't even sure I would live. But I'm still alive! 
1. Love yourself. 
I didn't really have big plans for my birthday, so I thought this post would serve as a present to myself! Here's to 25! 🎉

5 outlandish, random headcanons about Trini and/or Kimberly?
Trini
Is obsessed with the Spice Girls but doesn’t let anyone know. Plays their music through her beats and dances and sings. Kim doesn’t even find out until they’re married and she comes home early from work to find Trini in the kitchen dancing and singing loudly to their music on the speakers. Kim stares for a long time then shrugs and joins in. Gives Trini shit for the rest of their lives. (Trini’s favorite is Scary Spice. She converts Penelope to both the music and movie from a very young age.)
Can’t be around puke. Even her own disgusts her so much she cries. Can’t even handle little baby puke and freaks out whenever Penelope pukes in her arms. When her girls are sick she takes care of them, but leaves if there’s puking. Has led to fights. One time Kim and Pen were both sick and puking nonstop and Trini called her mom.
One weekend a month she resigns. No cooking. No cleaning. Let’s her girls fend for themselves. Ignores Kim whining that she’s hungry if Penelope isn’t home to cook. Spends all weekend on the couch with her feet up and junk food in her lap.
Red wine has a 50/50 chance of making her horny, handsy, and playful. There have been many family or parental dinners where her hand is on Kim under the table and she’s giving Kim Looks. Not usually one for voyerism or doing it somewhere where they might get caught, this flies out the window with red wine. The coat closet at Kim’s parents house, the kitchen pantry when all the rangers and their kids are over, one time in Penelope’s tree house during a summertime gathering while everyone is in the yard (Kim later in life traumatizes Penelope by telling her it happened.). Kim happens to love red wine drunk Trini. Trini? Just feels dreadingly embarrassed the next day. Trini tries not to drink red wine but Kim likes convincing her to.
Trini “borrows” Trent Reznor’s words for her vows. Kim doesn’t notice. Just thinks her wife has a hidden talent with words. Kim doesn’t find out until one day at 10 or so Penelope is watching the wedding video with her moms and turns with her cute nose wrinkle and asks if it’s Trent Reznor. Says she knows it is. Trini regrets introducing her daughter to Nine Inch Nails. Kim is furious. Trini is banned to the couch until she can come up with her own vows and present them to Kim in a romantic manner. Takes a couple weeks and some help from her daughter, but Trini makes a romantic dinner and over candlelight and red wine, tells Kim her vows. They soon end up under the table getting suuuper kinky. Trini gets to return to her bed that night.
Kimberly
Until she was 12, Kim was a major tomboy. Had to be fought with to groom herself and bathe. Would say she wanted to be a boy and marry a girl. Would look at baby names for boys to find one she liked. Was really close to her father then. Got teased all the time. Then she went to middle school and walked in with perfect hair and makeup and nice clothes. Worked her way up into popularity and never looked back. Her father got distant. Years later, realized she could indeed be a girl and marry a girl if she wanted.
Sometimes, when she and Trini are older and married, she sleepwalks in the middle of the night. Trini will wake up to find all the cabinet doors in the kitchen open, all the cheese gone, and Kim asleep on the counter. Kim never remembers anything and tells Trini she’s imagining things. It’s not until one night after she rolls off the counter and falls and breaks her arm that she gets help. Ends up being late trauma related to being a power ranger and eventually she stops, but Trini never lets her live it down.
When little Penelope wants to start soccer, Kim is her biggest supporter and is there on the sidelines every practice and every game. Loud. Ferocious. Yells at the couch. Yells at any kids who get near her daughter. She gets banned. So she gets a loudspeaker and cheers Penelope on from the parking lot. The cops ask her to leave. Her wife gives her that Look. Her daughter tells her to stay away. She pouts for a month. Trini takes over practicing with Penelope in the backyard and Kim watches dejectedly. When her team wins their first game, Penelope gives Kim her trophy and Kim gets blubbery. Trini says she filmed it. They all cuddle together to watch. Kim starts yelling at the TV.
We all know Kim can’t cook....but she can make a very impressive and artistic jello mold. And she does for every party. No one ever eats them, not even her, but they’re pretty and get lots of compliments.
Kim lost Penelope once. (That Trini knows of.) they were at the mall and something caught Kim’s eye and she let go of Penelope’s hand for a moment to look and when she looked down her daughter was gone. She screamed, ran around panicked, called her wife, talked to security. Eventually they found her in Spencer’s staring at the sex toys. She was six. She’d been missing for four hours. Had ice cream all over her face. Clip on earrings on her ears. A tiara on her head. Wasn’t the least bit scared. When Kim went to bed and curled up with her wife she cried from the fear she had felt half the day.
