The 250th birthday party is over, America is nursing a liberty hangover, and the free speech fights have already RSVP’d for the afterparty. If you need some liberty hair of the dog (or what we used to call HOT-D…oh wow, that sounds bad when you say it out loud) enjoy a Fredrick Douglass heavy celebration on ERI:

🍰BrownDust2 | Rigenette's Birthday 🎉 Happy birthday to Rigenette—the adorable little sister of the Mercenary Corps who loves compliments most of all! 🎉 “Whoa, what’s all this, you guys? Why did you decorate the barracks like this? Is it… a birthday party for me!? Hehe, thank you so much! My mercenary family really is the best!” Her big smile when she sees the decorated barracks shows she’s the Mercs’ beloved youngest. She might pull a few pranks or “borrow” things for attention, but deep down, she just wants to be loved and praised. So today, don’t wait for her next trick—give Rigenette all the compliments she deserves! Just saying “You’re amazing, Rigenette!” or “You did a great job!” will put the biggest, happiest smile on her face. And if you could give Rigenette any birthday gift, what would it be? Send her your words of praise—and your best ideas—in the comments below! 🎁✨ #HappyBirthday# #Rigenette#
