    I do have a long list of friends here but Snoopy Fan is one I talk in private messaging a lot. And I can honestly tell from the way he speaks he is a genuinely caring and thoughtful person, I have a long list of people I like to discuss with but mostly in forum threads. That doesn't mean I don't like them, our time can only go around to so many people. But I do have a long list of people I like here. ARockarooster gives helpful advice from time to time, as do forum moderator staff. I do miss talking to Night Sky though, we're still friends however we have not exchanged much recently. Sparklefan1234 I don't know what he is doing, but he is still around. Octavia Scratch can be funny, in a good way. Kyoshi appears to be busy in Twilight Soapbox, I'm not active there at the moment.

    Good thing I decided to put my plasma ball on the top shelf. EMI not good with computers, I know they can cause distortion with speakers so that's not a good sign. It's a 6 volt operated device, but it's still not a good idea. Doesn't seem to get particularly warm though, that's a good sign, means it should have a good lifespan as it's not one of those shoddy electronics with poor power management. I cannot use wireless devices in my bedroom anymore, darn physics and all that. :facehoof:

    With the plasma ball setup, it is time to get the other ornaments. Not sure what their life expectancy is but I would turn it off just in case before bed. It's also a reasonable distance away from my Raspberry Pi 5 system, shouldn't cause interference, but if it does, the plasma ball can still be switched off. Some safety advice I picked up on Quora I have noted, do not put aluminium foil on it, as a plasma ball is a small Tesla coil generating static electricity, but can generate a small electrical shock enough to burn if mishandled. Probably not the best thing to use with my headphones in the room, but wow they look cool.

    You're a great person to talk to Snoopy Fan, but for now, I am going to take a nap, I'll talk with you later if you're online to discuss anything with anyone, stay safe pal. Also I hope your sore throat is gone. :pinkiesmile:

      Thanks Dawnshine Wonder. I hope you have a good nap. My sore throat is almost gone.

    I managed to get one of these items off Ebay, it will arrive in due time. I am hoping the green LED strip will give it the effect I am hoping for, make the green gooey stuff beneath the action figure of Queen Chrysalis look like it is glowing. as the light from the shelf reflects off of it I'm not a scientist or engineer so I don't even know what the outcome of that is going to be. The theory checks out, but will it work in practice?

    I couldn't give up sweeteners in my tea if I tried, however I don't want to end up with type 2 diabetes. So the way I see it, going with stevia or some other non calorie sweetener is a compromise. Type 2 diabetes would make mine and anyone else's life more chaotic than without it, not something I wish on anyone. However keeping the calorie count down in diets does help, it's not just the sugar that is in drinks we need to watch out for, it is the carbohydrates in everything we consume, it all adds up, processed or not, which is why calorie calculators are recommended, people need to weigh up what they burn each day vs how much they need. I don't do the best at it, my diet is average at best, I don't exercise a lot either, however by not having sugar in my tea every time, I at least minimize the risks associated with sugar.

    Yeah sort of, but they don't have Applejack's hat, as you mentioned. Other than that the models are accurate I would say as well. I am disappointed as well because the hat is literally part of Applejack's wild west identity, I might get a Zecora action figure at some point as well if I can find one, Zecora is another character I love from the show, she is their resident healer, using what appears to be herbal medicines. I just wished the show had done a better job with ethnic diversity because there really did not appear to be many Zebras in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic, I mean it would have made sense, to have their equine civilization have more variety.

    Getting an injection for me is fine. Blood drawn? no, real blood scares me, I have to look away in both cases, but usually with the injection, it doesn't take long. What bothers me about the vaccine is not the shot, it is the temporary after effect of the arm swelling and becoming painful after, but it's a minor issue, it's a sign my immune system is working, so who cares.

    Very brave of you to bring it up though, thank you for being honest about how you felt about him because you will only get to the root of the problem he is causing if you talk about it with people who will understand your plight. I'd rather not be caught in the middle of this however that said, I don't want you to be abused any further, it was very important for you to discuss this with people. Sometimes people will put on a show, only for them to violate your boundaries some more. You recognize his manipulation and that is good, it means you have the power to be assertive and tell him no, and if he doesn't like it, then that's tough. He can go kick rocks, I don't want him to die and neither do you, however it is clear friendship with someone like him is impossible, until he recognizes where he went wrong.

    There are some things that would scare me about the idea of being reincarnated into the fictional world Equestria, and some things that would not. I had this discussion with Snoopy Fan earlier, by the way I had been given permission to share these, but this discussion only, there are some things for privacy reasons I cannot do so.

    From what I know of the show, Queen Chrysalis Tirek is more about brute strength than playing the long game But contrary to Tirek, Queen Chrysalis actually uses her head in combat in the earlier seasons of the show, if it wasn't for that one misstep in A Canterlot Wedding, it would have been over for Equestrians, Chrysalis would have absolute power, with nobody to challenge her power except a few greedy fools and pockets of resistance here and there, if Mane Six somehow survived, they'd likely join Zecora like in that other timeline in Cutie Remark, however. Tirek is just a thug who wins by luck and/or raw power, and I would say Tirek underestimating Twilight Sparkle in Twilight's Kingdom was a more embarrassing loss for him than what happened with Queen Chrysalis in A Canterlot Wedding. Tirek had the perfect opportunity to destroy Twilight, and he didn't. At least with the situation with Chrysalis, Chrysalis did not have enough information to go on about her enemies, and she did try to kill Princess Celestia which showed her to be a competent fighter even though Chrysalis was clearly malicious, but Twilight Sparkle had the power of 4 Alicorns in the power against Tirek, 4, surely it is unwise for a villain to take a chance on an enemy who is capable of gathering that much power? but as been said, Tirek is not a strategist in battle, so from his perspective he had no reason to suspect that Twilight Sparkle had another trick up her hoof for the final round with that rainbow power. Twilight Sparkle knew she wasn't dealing with the smartest of enemies and she wilfully took advantage of that with that calculated risk she made with the trade, which gave me a good impression about Twilight's leadership skills.

    Stevia works best for sweetening tea from my experience, doesn't take much of it and it doesn't come with the same negatives to your health as fructose does. In small amounts sugar is not a bad thing, we'd die without glucose in our blood and sugar exists in fruit, but it's really difficult to ignore the craving of simple sugar when it starts, which is probably not a good thing.

    Aww, who wouldn't want a cute hug from Rarity if she offered one? :kindness:

    Another reason for me to wish to be in the fantasy realm Equestria, I can make a playful Jab at Spike's eating habits while in that tour around Ponyville "Hey Rarity, he eats almost as much as me, now I've got competition!"

    Me and Snoopy Fan were talking about Equestria in MLP FIM official by Hasbro. Talking about how in an imaginary scenario where the place was real, it would be unfair to write off Equestria as inherently bad just because of villains who exist there in any of their world dimensions. To me, it would be as bad as racism, in fact it would be racist IMO Since Equestria does not exist whatever opinions people have about it does not matter But in an imaginary scenario where that was different, that changes, and I could imagine it being extremely hurtful for anyone here, to say Equestria is a bad place just because of their troublemakers, I could not bring myself to say that to them, Princess Luna or anypony else. It's not like Earth has not had our share of dangerous people. I've even said I am of the opinion that the real world is worse than Equestria is because it happens far too often, and wealthy people who commit crimes rarely get held accountable for their maleficence, or if they do, they seldom get the same penalties as the average man and woman who commits a crime. At least Equestria puts a stop to their warlords, mostly, and their Monarchy at Canterlot is not the one starting them after Princess Luna's reform which happened at the beginning of season 1.

    Then Ed nonchalantly scoffs down Eddy's lava lamp as if it was a bowl of soup. I loved that episode.

    I never watched Digimon so I cannot comment on it, sorry. As for Lauren Faust's vision of My Little Pony FIM, it is sad that Hasbro did not cooperate well with her, I wasn't aware of everything that happened behind the scenes but it does appear that the show was not as good as it could have been. Queen Chrysalis could have been depicted as being more edgy, more dark than what we got in Mean Six episode. From what I saw, Queen Chrysalis was better in A Canterlot Wedding episode as she was shown to be a master manipulator and infiltrator, and she nearly got her way with the protagonists of the show, she pulled all that off without the help of non Changeling villains like Tirek and Cozy Glow. Also in the comics she was far darker from what I researched about her characterization, even going as far as to kill a kitten in front of Cutie Mark Crusaders, and seemingly draining Equestrian citizens to near death, if not actually killing them, the implication was in the wiki I read about her on that she is certainly capable of making the emotional energy drain lethal if she wanted to. Modern TV shows patronize the audience though, I'm glad Warner Brothers wasn't like that in the 90's and early 2000's on Cartoon Network, they actually did make their villains commit murders and even genocides in some instances like in Justice League, yet it still managed to remain on daytime TV.

    Rarity is super cute I already daydreamed about being in Ponyville with her, out on a tour. Yeah she is that type of Pony that would help show others around, I wish the same for anyone else who would like that but Equestria don't exist, darn physics and all that. Oh well, I'm not trying to annoy anyone with my fantasies of the show we watch MLP FIM, although I do talk about this a lot. What I'd give to be there someday.

    I'm getting hungry as well. Some pasta with tomato sauce and basil is something I fancy right now.

    If only there was a glow in the dark Queen Chrysalis figurine, may be considered a waste of batteries but then LEDs don't drain much, and rechargeable batteries exist, such a negligible amount of power used isn't worth worrying about, not if you can find an efficient way to recharge it, like say, solar power. Yeah I believe you, adventure elements exist in MLP so it is conceivable you would be watching other fictions that are adventure stories. One of my favourite movies being, Legend 1985.
