Night Sky

Welcome home fellow Pony!

Big Mac sayz: "Yuup!"

I don't feel it's ALL bad. The internet has accomplished great things, it still is accomplishing great things and it could accomplish even greater things yet. It probably saves tens of thousands of lives a year at least. But how many people does it kill? Whoa........we need to turn the negativity down a great deal. There's a reason that a place like this is a bastion of good vibrations. Well, I should say there are many reasons. One, we're Equestria. That right there is the real reason. But, it's not for nothing that here we do not have a giant media company turning an algorithm loose upon us to divide and rule. I'm not saying there's any stopping big tech. But the future of the net, if fate smiles, might see a rebirth of places like MLP forums. More people need to break with the platforms and just go back to a more basic way of connecting with like minded folks. These types of forums worked just fine in the 2000's. No, or far fewer adds, Actual moderation, no frills or distractions. Just legit conversation.

I am gradually watching My Little Pony Tales atm. It's somewhat dated, therefore it makes me feel dated, because I was very much watching cartoons when it was brand new. Also, there is only so much Clover that one can take in a single sitting, so I have to pace myself. Some of the things that are said and some of the characterizations would not fly today. But, it's like root beer, the more I watch it, I start to like it more.

Welcome to the Forums, we've got fun and Manes! I too am doing a rewatch of FIM atm and I agree completely. FIM is mythology and is very archetypally potent. It is a modern day western Mahabharata, and I am often prone to dwell on those dimensions of it. Welcome. Or perhaps, welcome back.

It seems that Night Sky has developed a crush on Nurse Redheart. Off the top of my head, I can't quite recall if this is going to cause drama, is she already commited, is there anything to suggest that? I can't remember. Night Sky noticed her appearances during our rewatch of FIM. Also, he divides his time between Cloudsdale and Canterlot. He's busy constantly. Nurse Redheart lives in Ponyville and is just as busy. So how can I write this convincingly, how could it ever work out?

I would say that the Orwellian censorship irritates me, but it enrages me. FYI - I only mention this because I know YouTube, I've used it since the beginning and I've run a channel since 2011. I have almost 2 million views and over a thousand subs. Why mention this? Over the years, I have watched YouTube metamorphose into a site I no longer recognize. Prior to the Google takeover, it was an entirely different platform on an entirely different journey. The Google effect took a long while to set in. They made nice with the big corporations, dangled various iterations of the monetization carrot. They ruined the first generation of VLoggers, messed up many gamers and totally pushed the normal folks out of the algorithm. It's all big media and insane influencers now. They mess with your subscriptions and every time I hear the word "unalived" I know democracy is dying.

I, Assassin by Gary Numan Treasure by Cocteau Twins Pretty Hate Machine by NIN Floodland by The Sisters Of Mercy You'll Wake Up Yesterday by Thou Shalt Not These are probably my top five.

An old skool classic from a better time.

I briefly delivered for Domino's, we had a customer who was habitually so far out of line with us, they deserved to be arrested. Finally one night after a particularly vicious phone call, and a demand for another pizza, that made a coworker cry, I'd had enough. I had one of them make up the pizza. I let it go through the oven twice and then put it on ice in the fridge while I warmed up the box. I've never run so fast in my entire life after they took it from me.

Always fold, crumpling is wasteful, results in...uneven cleaning, and is enormously inefficient. It also is a great way to contaminate your hands, imao.

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.
