For The Transit Fans: Industry Perspectives: Emergency Stop (Rail)

Sometimes accidents happen, but as an opertator of a train with hundreds of lives on board its always up to the driver to be on the lookout for trouble.     Controls of an Amtrak Siemens ACS-64 Sprinter   As is blaringly obvious, train drivers do not have a steering wheel and trains cannot change direction at will, this means that a large part of the train drivers job is observing the tracks ahead and the signals for any signs of danger.   ​Practice: ​All railways use s

Why Twilight is the Princess of Friendship

This is just a little thing that I felt like I needed to write because it’s one of my favorite aspects of the show, and also one of the few that are actually inspiring in my opinion. We all know why Twilight is the princess of friendship, sure, she has saved Equestria, defeated monsters, and finished an ancient spell with the power of friendship alone. She’s also very knowledgeable in the matter, and her bond with her friends is really strong, so strong that it was even a product of destiny. She

Secondary Characters, Deus ex Machina, and appeasing fans part 2

Two part episode, two part blog. Why not? Welcome to part two, the ramblier, wishy-washier conclusion to my "To Where and Back Again" review...if you can call it that. *clicks 'play' button*   Now is where we get to the "appeasing the fandom" bit of my title. As much as I love Discord's relationship with Fluttershy, his protectiveness over her is a bit exaggerated, especially when you consider what he's done in the past (see: season 4 finale). I feel like this is the fandom's influence manifes

Secondary Characters, Deus ex Machina, and appeasing fans.

"Now, isn't this quite the combination of secondary characters?"   I don't know. Is it just me?   I think I've pinpointed one of my main issues with the more recent episodes of mlp...that meaning season 5 and 6 in general. At this moment, I'm about halfway through the Season 6 finale, and I'm almost reluctant to continue because this setup, this forced storytelling just feels like a fanfiction to me, and I really don't want to see this show that I love so much stumble* like this.   No

This Hooligan Blog Game Ain't What All That Training Was For

Long story short: There was no training. And that is why I remain inherently confused as to this entire system. The goal seems to be talking (or writing, as the case may be) in general, with no specific goal in the underlay. SO I will do that. I do not care if nobody sees this.   SO. I have known how to type for many years. My average speed is seventy words per minute. I have gotten up to one hundred twenty though. For a long time now, I have never been able to move my finger off the shift key

NES - An Adventure

Anyone who knows me knows I have always loved a good game. My love of gaming started all the way back to the original NES system, and I treasured the hours I spent getting new games, learning them and conquering them.   Eventually my old NES gave up the ghost, and the games went off to a pawn shop. Now I am trying to revisit those old classics and recapture some of the magic I felt before. It is no secret I have become somewhat disillusioned with games in the last few years.. they have become

New Chapter Published: The Phantom Menace!

The latest exciting page of the story has been published! To counter against an inevitable threat, Stardust, under guise of assisting the Apple family at their farm, takes the time to hone himself for the upcoming confrontation. Will he allow his friends, who could pick up if something was wrong in a heartbeat, to reassure he needn't face very challenge alone, or will his stubbornness not to allow innocent lives to endanger themselves override his lack of self-preservation once more? Enjoy!

S3E06: "Sleepless in Ponyville"

20+ seasons of this motherfucking shit.......................................   ......................I don't think I can hold out that long.   I always assumed that this show would last four seasons max, until there was a season five, six, and now seven. The direction of my review columns are heavily reliant on the direction of the series, but what if this series never fucking ends?! What the fuck am I gonna do then?! I can't go on forever! I can barely deal with shit I have now!   Woe-et

To be technical + interconnected rambly thoughts

If atheism does help the world, then forcing it on people would just cause anti-atheism. So anti-theism just causes anti-antitheism and such.   But education increases does increase everything atheism might seem to, perhaps atheism is just a side-effect of good education. But I know its not, I understand the psychology.   So I don't know if I should just promote indirectly secular science or continue what I am doing as I feel like doing when I find something interesting or think of a good ar

ASS-ASS-IN'S ROGUE: NX REVEAL (Screaming my lungs out until I can't breathe even if it killed me)

Yes, I know I haven't been writing as much as I used to, but I figured I'd let my last entry sink in for a bit. So what have I been doing? Sitting around, playing Xbox, and screaming my lungs out, but I'll get to that one in a few. Considering I've missed a few days, I'll try to knock out a couple of reviews in one entry. How does that sound?   First thing on the menu? Assassin's Creed: Rogue. Why? Well, because it's. . . new in my library? I don't know, just bear with me to the end.   Assas

Entry # 26 ?

Entry title says most of it already.   For a VERY long time now, I have been wanting to do things to contribute to the fandom (just for fun) or even start thing with youtube in general. The major problem with all of this is equipment, software and a few other things. But I don't know how to start things on youtube without busting a bank.   My main things I want to make videos on youtube is for roller coaster reviews, my little pony comic dubs/fanfic read, show reviews and analysis and much

It Strikes Me About Top Bolt (Spoilers)

How the clear romance between Vapor Trail and Sky Stinger had a million times more depth and realism to it than all the EQG specials combined. This romance was actually subtle, and it made me FEEL for these characters. I wanted them to get together at the end. And they did... Kinda. But I will take a subtle romance over blatant Disney ripoff anyday.

Somebody Stole My Bike

Someone stole my bike while I was at the dollar store for the grand total of 3 minutes. I had to walk home in the ridiculous cold and throughout that long, long walk I could not bring myself to get angry. It was just a feeling of sadness so deep that I ended up numb, and it wasn't until I got home that I could cry. I've only had that bike for two years, but it grew up with me when I moved to Minnesota. I explored so much with it. It's a really important part of my life and now it's gone. I bough
