    @Tacodidra Quite an upgrade within the space of a few cartoons then. Well, that's what firing Tom Palmer will do for you. Seeing a 30s cartoon mixed in with the more famous 40s & 50s cartoons was always surreal. Especially one from before even Porky was thought of.

    I thought the character designs were cute, and the fact that there was such a large fandom dedicated to it, inspired me to give MLP a shot. I started watching the first season of FiM in May 2017, and I haven't looked back since.

    A lot of people don't want anything to ever change, and they automatically fear anyone who is different from them. They're usually taught to think this way by closed-minded parents, or by arbitrary and meaningless rules that society has drilled into them. They are not particularly good at critical thinking, and are even worse at challenging their own biases and considering different points of view.

    I'm feeling a bit tired and sore from having blood drawn earlier today, but otherwise I'm fine.

    If it's a full hour before my alarm is set to go off, I stay in bed and see if I can get one more hour of sleep before I have to wake up.

    I see that the animation is starting to improve at this point in the series! I saw "Beauty and the Beast" once on Boomerang, and I was surprised that they included a cartoon from the Buddy days in their package.

      @Samurai Equine I celebrate it with lots of fluffy hugs! ^_^

      @Bon Bon Hi, Bonnie! So good to see you! :eager:

    @Tacodidra That's a really good point, a lot of the earlier directors tend to get forgotten simply because their cartoons aren't seen on TV as much. That's why it's important to track down the DVDs!

    I feel like Octavia really deserves an emoji. Either one of these would be lovely!

    Sky Scraper is a lesbian just like me.

    @Tacodidra I guess the studio preferred pigs over foxes, which must have led to Porky a few years later. Tex Avery is an absolute legend - he created almost all of the main Warner Bros stars, and then he went on to have a great career at MGM too! One could argue that he was the most important director of them all.
  13. Octavia Heartstrings
    I agree. If I was her, I'd have legally changed my name to Bon Bon anyway, whether I was a secret agent or not. Her cutie mark doesn't make me think of drops anyway, those are clearly bonbons!
  14. Octavia Heartstrings
    @Tacodidra I have a feeling the animator just copied Foxy and took away the humanoid features. My favorite fox cartoon from any studio is easily Tex Avery's "Out-Foxed", starring Droopy. This one is absolutely hilarious - give it a watch if you can find it!
  15. Octavia Heartstrings
    Some interesting history here! I always felt like the Warner Bros cartoons could have used more fox characters, since they're probably my favorite animal.

      @Tacodidra Thank you! I think my exams went well for the most part. :twi: I'm hoping to get my first women's haircut at some point over the break. :grin:

    Peanut butter, or really anything with peanut flavoring. I didn't mind it as a kid, but over time I grew to hate it.
  23. Octavia Heartstrings
    I always really enjoyed drawing road atlas maps and buildings. Not really typical things for a kid to draw, but that was what my neurodivergent mind fixated on.
  24. Octavia Heartstrings
    Discord would definitely remain unchanged, and I can't imagine him having a human counterpart either. The same goes for any of the Changelings, though they could take on a human form if they wanted to.
  25. Octavia Heartstrings
    Not really. I think anyone should be allowed to love their favorite pony, if that's how they feel.
