  1. I need to see Hazbin Hotel soon.

      Tis quite good. The pacing is a bit all over the place at parts, but it certainly has put a great foundation down with season 1.

      I hope you enjoy it, my friend! :D I thought season 1 was a nice one! :squee:

  2. Happy birthday, Nito! :blue_baloon:

      13 good years. Gone by fast, I wish I could go back. Glad you could be with us that long.

      Congrats, my friend! :mlp_yeehaa:

  5. Happy birthday, Zoop! :eager:

  6. Jeric, we love you and miss you dearly. Hopefully, you and Jessi are celebrating your birthday together.

    Happy birthday, my friend.

  7. 11.25-mile walk today. Not bad at all. :D

      Nice! Very proud of your progress. :D

  8. Happy birthday, @Shiny Silvermoon! :D

      @Dark Qiviut Thanks! I don't know why people keep doing this but you should try again tomorrow since it's the wrong date! :D

  9. Happy birthday! :yay:

  10. Sucks that Billy Wagner missed by five votes, but with a good chunk of voters having three (or four, if voted for Sheffield) ballots slots cleared, he has a shot to get in. Plus, next year is his last, so hopefully he'll get a boost (ala Tim Raines, Edgar Martinez, & Larry Walker, all of whom got in at the end). 🤞

  11. Congratulations, Adrian Beltre, Todd Helton, & Joe Mauer on being elected to the Baseball of Fame! :izzy-shine:

  12. In less than 24 hours, who will be elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame by the writers will be announced (January 22, 6pm Eastern).

    If I was a BBWAA writer and had a vote for the Baseball Hall of Fame, I'd fill the maximum of ten people. Out of all of the people in this ballot, these would be my ten:

    1. Bobby Abreu: A sneakily consistent hitter who finished with 400 stolen bases and a .395 on-base percentage.
    2. Adrian Beltre: 3,000 hits, 477 homers, 94 WAR. First-ballot Hall-of-Famer.
    3. Mark Buehrle: One of the most consistent and durable pitchers in his time, athletic on the mound, quick to the plate.
    4. Todd Helton: 2,500 hits, a career slash line of .316/.414/.539, and played all 17 years with one team (Colorado).
    5. Joe Mauer: Three batting titles in a four-year stretch, all as a catcher. 2009 AL MVP. A career .306 hitter.
    6. Francisco Rodriguez: Nicknamed K-Rod for his flair for the dramatic after striking out hitters, has the single-season save record (62), and finished with more than 400 saves. One of the best relievers in the 21st century.
    7. Jimmy Rollins: Phillies' all-time hit leader, 470 steals, 2007 NL MVP, helped lead Phillies to 2008 World Championship.
    8. Gary Sheffield: One of the last players in this current crop to finish with more walks than strikeouts. Almost won the 1992 NL Triple Crown, .292 career hitter, 2004 AL MVP runner-up, 1997 World Champion.
    9. Billy Wagner: Best left-handed reliever in baseball history. 422 career saves. Career 187 ERA+ #2 all-time among pitchers with 900+ innings (behind Mariano Rivera's 205).
    10. David Wright: A really solid player for a good chunk of his career, the Mets' last captain, 7-time All-Star, 242 homers second-most in Met history (Darryl Strawberry's 252). He's in danger of falling off, so I'd give him one to stick around.

    Andruw Jones a temporary drop.

    Would also add Carlos Beltran if the ballot maximum was twelve. Manny and A-Rod failed PED tests (Manny's second failed test led to his abrupt retirement).

  13. *petting my happy void beside me* 🐈‍⬛

      Void? Is that your pet? :grin:

      @Samurai Equine Eeyup! One of my two cats.

      ("Void" is internet slang for a black cat.)

  14. Happy birthday! :fluttershy:

  15. "Apples to the Core" is still so great to listen to, but it still feels more complete listening with bronies young and old clapping along.

      I just like seeing the rough storyboard drawings. The final animation is great, but some of the rough sketches have a charm that didn't fully translate, I feel. :)

  16. Happy New Year, everybrony!

  17. As 2023 will close in about 2 hours here, let me say "toda" ("thanks" in Hebrew) to everyone who followed my 120-pound weight-loss triumph over the past two years. Posting about my journey, chronicling all of my power walks, and the responses are a major confidence booster; they keep me going.

    2024 is approaching. Not only do I wanna keep the weight down. I still have my goal of losing more weight. Maybe my walks may become longer, too? Hmmmmmm… :mustache:

    I enjoyed 2023. Can't wait for 2024. :love:

      2023 was the best of the 2020 years so far. It wasn't a complete dumpster fire for me like 2022, lots of lessons to be learned. Hope you stay well.

      Congratulations, my friend! And Happy New Years! :rarityhat:

      ...Is "toda" pronounced the same as "ta-da"? :pinkiehat:

      Not exactly. Pronounced more as "tow-DA." :)

  18. Every solstice (both winter & summer), the English Heritage YouTube channel broadcasts sunrise at Stonehenge live.

    They're doing that right now. The sun will rise in front of the Heel Stone soon.

      I don't understand why this is a big thing. I'm just a dumb American. But if people like to celebrate it, and it's all in good fun, then why not? When in Rome~ Er, when in England? :twilightcutehat:

      Took place at 3:09am Eastern time. Sun just rose.

      All I've got is rain. :nom: Too warm for snow.

  20. Ho-ly shit, what a walk.

    Last Sunday, I walked over 13.85 miles.

    Today, in celebration of Hanukkah's last night, I walked (and jogged) more than 14.1 in just over five hours. :mlp_yeehaa:

  22. Can't wait to celebrate the last night of Hanukkah with a walk tomorrow.

    I almost got to 14 miles last time. Let's see how far I go here. :grin2:
