Christmas

For such a simple song, The Twelve Days Of Christmas holds impressive depths. With well over twenty variations, each putting its own spin on each of the twelve cumulative verses, the possible permutations of what one&#39;s true love has given seem endless. One more common version has risen to the top over the years, from English composer Frederic Austin in 1909. It&#39;s this version that the PNC Bank has used to gauge its <a href="https://www.pncchristmaspriceindex.com/" target="_blank">Christmas Price Index</a> since 1984.

From the fluctuating actual prices of the items themselves to the depth of personal value each one holds, what day of Christmas is the best, based on the gifts given by your true love? Is the twelfth day the best because not only does the cost of musicians continue to rise, but music is basically priceless and also you also get all the presents from the past eleven days? Or is that just Too Much and you&#39;re quite satisfied stopping at three French hens, a handful of other birds and one fruiting tree?

The existence of LGBTQ+ <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-most-badass-video-game-heroes-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">video game characters</a> has far too often been only heavily implied or hinted at via flirty dialogue and vague suggestion. Queer video game content is also often only the meager result of a game allowing the player to create a male or female character and not limiting NPC romantic preferences. But the best queer video games offer rounded characters who romance, live, fight, and investigate while also being lesbian, trans,&nbsp;gay, or actively bisexual because they were written that way.

Although a lot of the LGBTQ+ games on this list focus on romanceable players, some of them paved the way for their franchises and games in general. Being able to marry Miria when playing as a female or Davin while playing as a male in Fallout 2 might seem like nothing nowadays, but in 1998 it was groundbreaking. In the same way, the first Mass Effect&#39;s introduction of the mono-gendered asari race seemed like a weak way to introduce bisexual characters, but the franchise has since grown to include male and female bisexual characters along with a full cast of <a href="/list/best-lgbtq-video-game-characters/kyle-townsend" target="_blank">LGBTQ+ character representation</a>, including trans characters.

From the complicated romances of Dragon Age: Inquisition to the more playful and simple relationships and identities of Steven Universe: Save The Light and gay and lesbian-themed games like Dream Daddy and Gone Home, the world of LGBTQ+ games is constantly expanding. There are even non-binary characters, including playable characters, in games like Undertale or 2064: Read Only Memories. The addition of ace characters in newer games like The Outer Worlds continues to fill out the spectrum of identities and people in the gaming world to match the world of players.

Entertainment

Science fiction is so vast -&nbsp;it has spawned a seemingly endless selection of sub-genres, including 22nd-century sci-fi. Each century offers&nbsp;a different flavor of sci-fi stories, from realities mostly resembling our own (such as&nbsp;Black Mirror) to 28th-century, hyper-advanced civilizations. The best sci-fi that takes place in the 22nd century, however, has a unique feeling you can't find in other science fiction sub-genres.The 22nd&nbsp;century is close enough to modern day, so the characters feel contemporary, but&nbsp;there are also colonized alien planets and spaceships. The technology has advanced enough to cover the usual <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/overused-tropes-in-supernatural-tv/stewart-chyou?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">science fiction tropes</a>, while also giving the story enough limitations to make the setting&nbsp;more interesting and believable.Sci-fi stories based in the&nbsp;22nd century have the potential for distinct drama incomparable to&nbsp;other time periods. From Alien to Avatar, the 22nd-century sci-fi genre has some of the most skillfully crafted stories in all of science fiction.
