Night Sky

It's fun but nothing will ever top SatAM, and the kiddos who dis it these days just don't get it. Jahlil White Graced us as Sosnok in both series. Long John Baldry gave us many memorable quotes, especially for us YTP and YTPMV alumni. But he can't compare to THE Jim Cummings, also THE Kath Soucie and THE Charles Adler. SatAM!

My recent experiences with getting back onto social media have left me perplexed. On YouTube, if you comment on a video that is more than three days old, no one engages with it. On Facebook, no one has been around in years. Every dating app I've tried is a ghost town, but the companies keep them going and run them like scams with egregious pay walls. So, a lot of the so-called major players seem to not be as vibrant as they are still held up to be. They seem like dead zones. And in other areas which are more active, matters seem to be almost entirely toxic. Just propaganda echo chambers, the 2 minutes hate and people screaming at each other. This is a grim picture I am painting, obviously. I have been very disengaged from the internet generally and social media in particular for a long while now. Coming back to it now, it seems the bad trends have progressed, but there is just far less activity overall. What do all of you think, ponies?

Welcome to the (Everfree) Forest, we've got Fun and Manes!

Welcome to Equestria! You'll find many nice and welcoming ponies here. Twi, Rarity and Fluttershy are my fav ponies too!

It's eerie. Once in a blue moon, an entity will peep around a corner at you, but rarely, and you're likely to miss it when it happens. They never attack in The Complex. Now, Escape The Backrooms, that's another story entirely. Fancy is putting out a new update soon. My fellow suits and I will stream that when it drops.

I didn't have one. I got few yearbook sigs and signed fewer. I tended to just sign my name or make each thing I wrote be entirely unique.

I am certainly glad this didn't happen to Rainbow Dash, but certainly, there'd be consequences. It would change more in the short run, largely depending on when this were to happen. In the earlier seasons, Twilight Sparkle might have had to sternly give a bunch of ponies a lesson about not being nasty to ponies who are disabled. The Mayor might need to be reminded about accessibility and ableism. Behind closed doors, given her personality in the earlier seasons, RD would be difficult to be around. She'd probably be having a terrible time adjusting, She'd probably be lashing out and trying to do things she couldn't anymore and trying to blame others for it. The Rainbow Dash from Season 4 onwards has a bit more perspective about herself, so she'd probably be crushed, okay that was terrible, but also circumspect. But in the long run, after the rest of the Mane 6 had snapped everypony who needed it back into line, nothing would change fundamentally. Equestria woukd still be Equestria, and Rainbow Dash would be a disabled pony living in it with her friends. She'd probably have to give up the Element of Loyalty to another Pony, and that would be sad, but Twi and Princess Celestia could probably see to it.

I pefer my partners to be my height or either slightly taller or shorter, not too much either way. Usually, they end up being shorter. I'm 5'11" and that's not tall or short.

A blackberry pie my mom had made.

I sat in a hut in the pouring rain and slept. The lights were out, my heaters were on generator power and I was entirely alone. Wasn't comfy, but try staying awake with nothing to do in the midst of that much white noise.

I tend to bing, three to four episodes at a time. With FIM, it can go even higher than that.

I've had a small bit of luck with slot machines. Twice a year, I will take twenty or forty bucks into a casino, we have them on the river. So far, I've never walked out empty handed. Video slots are loss leaders. You don't wanna be shooting craps or spinning the roulette wheel, don't do that. Also, don't play video blackjack. Go for video slot machines that have a lot of diagonals and bet small. I usually walk out with between 160.00 and 200.00 bucks in my wallet, and a gallon of free coffee in my stomach.

One time I was having a lot of trouble getting the kitchen door unlocked and the wind was really out of control. The screen door, which had plexiglass windows, kept slamming into me aggressively. I was angry about the door lock and the wind and five other things. Finally, I pushed the screen door back and executed what would be a 10/10, perfect form Kung Fu front kick, Crane style perhaps. I was aiming for the door frame. I was just trying to be nasty, it was an act of pure chimp rage. Well I missed and you can all take a wild guess what happened next. I got to clean up all the shards of plexiglass. When my dad came home I told him that an owl had flown into the screen door and was half dead but was having some kind of convulsions and had flown off. To my dismay, dad bought the explanation.

A winged serpent that was also a Phoenix would be bad @55. I would also love to own a Pegasus.

I was out in the cold rain messing with traffic cones and locked gates, yay me!

She'd hatch a contortionist act and embrace it.

The first time I remember drawing was on Grandparents day at pre-school. I was using extra large Crayola markers, which sat in a wooden block with holes drilled for them. My Grandparents were content to sit and watch me. There was some group activity the class left the room for. But I remember Sheila, one of the teachers telling me that they were gonna just let me draw since I seemed to enjoy it so much. After 40 years, two university degrees, a few shows, a failed marriage and a lot of damage and pain, I've never stopped drawing. So as for myself, I can only answer that there is no why. I just draw. The above described scene is one of my earliest memories, and I was already drawing when the memory begins.

Happiness Hotel, The Great Muppet Caper "Welcome Home To Happiness Hotel!"

Robots and A.I. don't scare me. If we don't pull ourselves together soon, what they are and are not capable of will become a moot point. They won't be capable of surviving or evolving without us for a long time yet. At the rate we're going, if we don't make it, they won't. I'm not to hostile to A.I. I use Google analytics, I constantly babble with ChatGTP, I'm kind and polite to it. It has potential but it still needs a lot of help and care from us, and we can't even take care of ourselves.

I am trying to finish up being a Butterfly without making low quality posts. It will be nice to be one of Fluttershy's woodland creatures, and not be an insect or a food product anymore. I am a bit surprised. When I reached butterfly, I saw something about this still very low rank being already in the top 9% of all users, really? Are the regulars that small a percentage?

When it rains I'm out in it, with rain gear or sman umbrella. I love the rain and grey days.

Tonight I am feeling better. This morning was the bottom of this depressioner phase. However, this time I was not going through it alone. You all need to not undervalue the role you've played in making this less bad for me than prior times I had to do this alone. Since I came here it's been one of several new things I've been doing lately that help me. I had a horrible nightmare. And, I'm not happy it happened. But...falling into the trap of unreasonable expectations is one of the worst things you can do to yourself. Bad dreams will happen. They are a part of nature. Long story short, as bad as it was, I have successfully used it as a redline. A Picard moment, this far and no farther, the line is drawn here. I didn't do nothing. I did what I needed to do, never mind what. And for the rest of the day and into this evening, I'm snapping out of it. It's an odd world and a strange life. That doesn't mean it's bad. Who could have thought that MLP would be such a help to someone like me. The fact remains, it is. And for me, MLP includes all of you. So, thank you. Thank you. That's as much as words can do, words of course, fall short.

Pegasus always, Alicorn second, unicorn third, and Earth Pony last.

Thank you for all the kind words! You're right, idiosyncrasies are meant to be celebrated. And yes, I agree, I too wish that the track was a bit longer. It's the shortest track on its album by far, but also the most memorable.
