  1. Regardless of whether what she said was actually as bad as people make it out to be, the company she worked for has every right to fire her. Firing a person for causing controversy and espousing political views a company disagrees with isn't against any laws as far as I know. 

    People are free to express their opinions online about this and vote with their wallets, but I doubt any backlash from the firing will hit Disney very hard. They're already pretty much made of money and that's not going to change anytime soon. 

    And if anyone wants to make up their own mind over what she said, I'd look directly at her statements, rather than what either media or a biased source says.

  2. I think as the series went on, unicorn magic just got more and more powerful, with pegasi and earth ponies remaining the same. At least in the beginning, pegasi were the only ones to be able to fly and walk on clouds, but with self levitation for unicorns, they lost that uniqueness.

    I wish they could've at least added more powers for the other ponies while they powered up the unicorns, just to make them all more special in their own ways. 

    At least there's always fanfic to add things in, but then what powers would be added to earth ponies and pegasi to make them more even?

  3. I just looked at my own profile and was kinda confused since the first thing on my page is my activity.

    then I realized that's probably because I don't have the 'about me' section filled out

    So I guess if you want activity first on your own profile, that's one way to do it

  4. I like the sound of mains hum. There's a small transformer in my college classroom/lab room that makes so much noise people have complained about it lol, but I like it. 

    Also like watching insects walk around, especially the big leaf-footed bugs around my house. They're super calm around people too, I've even had some climb on me which was fun.

  5. I've mostly annoyed my teachers by correcting their mistakes, especially in high school where the tests were super simple and I could just point at the textbook and show them their answer was wrong. Sometimes it leads to good things and me getting points back on a test or quiz, sometimes the teacher is stubborn and refuses to admit they were wrong.

    One of the latter cases happened to me recently in college; one of my profs last semester absolutely insisted after a quiz that wrought iron was less ductile than cast iron despite all evidence to the contrary. I kept sending him emails arguing until my parents managed to convince me to stop before I got him too mad lol

  6. Choices listed above, let me know if I missed anything somehow. (I know Equestria Girls doesn't quite count as ponies, but I put it there anyway because why not)

    Personally I'm stuck between G4 and the earlier generations, I like a more horse-y style, but the simplistic design of FIM has a draw to it too. And the movie looked really nice as well.

    I think I can guess as to what the results of this poll will be, but who knows? Maybe a bunch of people will pick Pony LIfe lol

  7. I'd like a complete wipe of the story and characters at least. Maybe same general locations and setting in Equestria in the future would be alright, with a few mentions here and there of the mane 6 and past important characters. Even far in the future, I can't imagine all that they did being forgotten.

    I can easily see some sort of catastrophic event occurring with the mane 6 not being around anymore to prevent the bad guys from doing their thing, and a new team of friends needing to be formed, with their own new stories and personalities and everything.

    And if we do see (Princess) Twilight in the new gen, we better also have the entire mane 6 there, or I'm going to be sad :rarity:

  8. In my experience, the phrase "diversity and inclusion" tends to mean focusing more on who the characters are rather than their actions; media usually does this via surface-level identities that don't really go into a character farther than what the eye can see. Connecting to people by ticking boxes rather than through a character's...character.

    At least I still have episodes from G4 I haven't watched. :kindness:
