    Someone in my family that I met once is going away for a long long time. I don't know what to feel. I'm not sad. I'm not happy. I don't feel anything. I'm sad that others are sad, but it's not my sadness.

    I've met quite a few Autistic people both online and irl. I don't keep ties because I usually meet said people at cons and we hang out. Overall my impression is that autistic people are just normal people with social problems and such, real nice, just awkward. To answer your question I don't think parents or whomever watches with their kid will mind. Sesame Street has a tradition of bringing in people of different groups and positions. With Autism being a rather common condition it makes sense to introduce a character for this. Looking with a quick google search I can see that 1 in 68 children are diagnosed somewhere on the spectrum. That means that a child can learn early on about what challenges autistic people face, kinda how all kids learn about the wheelchair kid or crutchy. TL;DR This is neato of them to do and I think people will react positively. Edit: I see some people showing concern that the show may use stereotypes or something. I'm genuinely interested in how Sesame Street intends to present such a character. Could be good, could be bad. I think theyre just gonna take some of the more general traits? Idk, I'm not an expert on autism...

    Conspiracies are fun to engage in. Flat earth is one of those. Patriarchy, Jews, and illuminati are also fun!

    Is it just me, or do these new characters for the movie look like bad OCs? https://www.equestriadaily.com/2017/02/mlp-movie-tons-of-character-designs.html#more

      I think he looks pretty lame :T Get too much of a "furry" feeling about it, having something so anthro.

       

      I think the storm king looks pretty fine, color scheme could be better. The rest I really don't like the designs of them.

      It'll be silly for sure. Let's hope the writing makes them better than they appear

      Indeed. The last one looks kinda edgy... I am hoping we don't get a too edgy character...

    Today some guy in a coments section got hypertriggered by people talking about one part of his comment rather than the other parts, despite that part being the most controversial. He ended up shouting at everyone, calling them retards and mentally challenged, and threatening to delete and block people who bring it up. 0-0

    The fandom aint dying. It's just outta that crazy honeymoon phase of new shiny paint. As the seasons go on we become more comf with stuff. Chill. I was INSANE during my first year in the fandom. Now I've chilled out a ton

    In one conversation I had under a vid somebody kept aluding to me being a "fetishist" and called me "pony-boy" and "that rainbow horse". It was pretty fun because we kept meeting in other similar videos. XD

    Most of the time I find myself laughing. It's such an outdated and obviously false attack. Half the time it doesnt even make sense considering the topic. I was trying to talk about a game glitch with someone and they countered with "you wouldn't know considering your avatar"

    I, like many bronies, use a pony avatar even on non-brony sites or games. In fact, the avatar for my google account is of Rainbow Dash wearing shades. Because Google accounts are linked to YouTube profiles(which I hate btw) my comments always show up as my nickname with a picture of RD. I watch a lot of political and gaming content on YouTube. As time has gone on I've gotten many people who respond to my comments bringing up my avatar and saying that I don't get an opinion because of it, often adding that I'm filthy or gay or a pedophile. I'm not complaining about this, this is the internet and I find those responses hilarious, but I am curious. Are these stereotypes of bronies still rolling around? I suppose they are. Have any of you wonderful people experienced similar comments for using pony avatars? care to share? EDIT: I'm really not looking for sympathy here! I got over the insults a while ago. I love it when people give me hate for it because its often given in hilarious ways. I just want people to share stories really! on a side note, I use this picture of Fluttershy in games that let me select it. It's funny when I top the scoreboard and people get this:
