    Should Gay Ponies be allowed?

    in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion

    If by agenda you mean elucidating that yes, gay and transgender people do exist and are still human beings that deserve the same respect and rights as everyone else, then, yes, absolutely. In terms of forcing this as an ideal, not hardly. Why are you picking on on LGBT folks anyway? Just because it might make someone mad? You can claim anything "is an agenda" if you try hard enough. How about this for a lark? Heterosexual people in movies and TV is pushing the agenda that gay is totally wrong and the only right thing is being heterosexual! You'd call that laughable, wouldn't you? The same logic applies to your thinly veiled hateful rhetoric.

    Even with the same context in play, my absolute disgust still stands! Stating that you dislike them in media because it implies that it's normal and accepted is only a small step from unmitigated hatred. There is nothing that be objectively harmful about depicting a homosexual couple or a transgender individual in any form of media. Being included for inclusions sake is a slap in the face but a well thought out character or scenario is not a problem and arguing that it is... you might as well just come out (ha, puns) and say you just hate gay people.

    Chew on this however. Persona 4 has two characters who wrestle with LGBT issues: Kanji Tatsumi and Naoto Shirogane. Neither character would be as interesting and well rounded as they are without the LGBT aspects to them. Hell, Hammerlock from Borderlands 2 wouldn't be nearly as hilarious without the thinly veiled references to him being bisexual. To put it flatly, there is nothing wrong with having open LGBT characters in any form of media. And yeah, this includes ponies.

    Well said mate well said.

    Is the Twilight we know a Changeling?

    .....ahem. *points at Mean Six* and *A Canterlot Wedding*

    I don’t get why you’re mentioning the mean six in a topic regarding changelings. They were artificial clones not changelings. Is it because they fooled the mane six for a while in their single episode.

    Is the Twilight we know a Changeling?

    in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion

    Nope. As pretty much everyone else has said; you’re looking way too deep into this. There’s a ton of different phobias out there. In the case of ladybugs a phobia of bugs is a really really common phobia. As for the cheesy thing it feels more like a high level of disgust than a real fear. Twilight is twilight. She’s not a changeling. You’re being overly paranoid over this mate.

    Air Travel, yes or No?

    in General Discussion

    Nope nope nope nope nope. My acrophobia would act up like crazy if I traveled by plane. The idea of going up anywhere near as high as planes do freaks me out. I’ve only been on like two planes ones that were small and didn’t go up as far as the planes people travel in do. I didn’t like either cases and was nearly nauseous from it. I know I’m in a secure vehicle and all but the thought that I’m so high up would get to me. At least going up to high heights on a roller coaster is something that ends eventually or going up to like the tower at kings island or anything like that you can get down whenever you want. In a plane you’re stuck thousands and thousands of feet in the air for hours.  Not something I want to experience. 

    Things that in media that scared you when you were young?

    in Media Discussion

    · Edited by OdellaLark

    Regardless if it was really young ages or teen years. What’s some things in media that scared you? Please do NOT share any videos of incredibly graphic in any way content or get really explicit in details about it. If it’s highly graphic violence or whatever just sum it up in the least graphic way possible. 

    For me:

     

    This one actually has caused multiple panic attacks ffs

    Bonus:

    An instrumental version of the first video 

    Listen to this late at night, when you’re the only one awake and it’s raining or just really cold outside with some good headphones at full volume. I swear when I do that I feel as if the chants of Are You Ready are something I’m hearing as if I was having the exact experience the video shows, as if they were legitimately asking me this not him. That sounds crazy though I guess. 

    Do you have any non mlp ships?

    in Media Discussion

    Just curious. 

    I’m personally fond of Shangchi(Shang Tsung and Quan Chi from Mortal Kombat). 

    Taleena(Tanya And Mileena from the same series as above). 

    Capratchney(Cappy, Ratchet and Rodney from Robots). 

    GrayGhost(Danny And Valerie from Danny Phantom). 

    Carmesly(Carmelita And Sly from Sly Cooper series). 

    Kataang(Katara And Aang from the last air bender).

    DishonorableThunder(The Mayor and Thunder Girl from Action League Now! , yes really)

    NinjaDiver(Stinky Diver And Red Ninja from the same series as above). 

    And those are just the few I can remember atm.

    What phone do you have?

    in Media Discussion

    iPhone XR. Got it about 2 weeks ago I think?I kinda miss having a ‘home button’ though. The little bar at the bottom of the screen in photo mode always being there is a massive pain. As is waiting for it to disappear in landscape mode when watching a video after going ahead in it or just starting to watch it. And the fact that the battery percentage is only viewable if you swipe down to see the control panel for it. Aside from that it’s pretty nice. I have a pretty cool case for it. It’s clear but has glitter and some sort of liquid that you can shake and make go up and down with it. The big star glittery things glow in the dark too kinda. 

    Season 9 is gonna have 26 episodes!

    in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion

    Well 26 episodes isn’t much of a surprise seeing as every season aside from 3 had that many. (If I’m not mistaken I think maybe the first Equestria Girls Movie was the cause of that? Anyone can correct me if I’m wrong here)And of course there’s a 2 part premiere and most likely finale but maybe not. Maybe the show will go the route of possibly giving the show something like a mini movie, like Adventure Time and Regular Show have done. Maybe they’ll just play the two parter episodes together and then later on just air them as one hour  or so long thing? It’d be really cool if by some chance we could see some places we haven’t seen in a while maybe a few movie places. And characters from that too would be great. A multi part finale like it’s been mentioned would be awesome imo. That way if they decide to take every episode and put them together it could be like a TV movie for the series itself and not an Equestria Girls Movie. 

    Dora the Explorer movie coming from Michael Bay

    To be fair, it looks like a decent family movie. Almost like a kid's version of National Treasure. I might give it a watch for giggles, just to see how it ends up. It really does not look all that bad. Could be kinda fun.

    Basically yeah. It’s still a bit odd to hear the phrase Dora and knife in the same sentence and not have it be some stupid edgy parody.

    They’ve put up a bunch of collections and two top 5 lists now. And they’re coming sometime in the middle or so of next month so there’s that now. Though the collections were uploaded on their second channel they’re still listed on the main one.

    What are some weird phobias you have?

    in General Discussion

    Putting these under a spoiler just in case 

    Spoiler

    Acrophobia (heights, but if I’m on a really secure platform like with railing all along it and it’s kind of high railings I’m pretty fine still a tiny bit freaked out but not panic attack levels). Coulrophobia(clowns, wearing songs and red noses isn’t too bad, though big comfy couch is one of the very few clown based things I can watch just fine). Katsaridaphobia(cockroaches, they just freak me out okay).  Emetophobia(vomiting, stemmed from having horrible stomach viruses when I was younger, causing the act of vomiting to terrify and freak me out because it’d get to the point where it’d really really burn my throat coming out due to vomiting fits). There’s not a name for it that I know of but roller coasters are kind of a phobia of mine, I’ve ridden like 3 I think and they just weren’t pleasant, the high heights a majority of them go doesn’t help any even if I’m in a cart the thought of going up that high really gets to me. Aquaphobia/Thalassophobia(Drowning/the open sea, it’s mostly just drowning but being lost at sea terrifies me too).  Trypanophobia(needles, I just hate them they freak me out and getting shots even as a full grown adult still scares me tbh).
