Take it from somebody with experience with insomnia and difficulty sleeping some nights, I know, escapism is my coping mechanism for getting my mind away from negative news stories that I can do nothing about to help them, but even that coping mechanism can fail if I have not had enough sleep, as it makes me more likely to become irritable. Lack of sleep is not healthy for anyone. I know there's a lot of bigotry people mental health problems are victimized by, but it's not like what we say to them will change their opinion. I know it's difficult to not get obsessed with things that bring our moods down, but for peace of mind it is worth it. I'm not saying iforgotmybrain was doing this, just that there is toxicity on social media platforms that are best for us to avoid. Culture war rubbish in the real world is a reason I indulge in my fanfiction. And I do agree with @Night Sky on this one, Equestria is a better world, despite their own problems. I know that Ponies have this problem where they can get bullied for not having cutie marks, or inability to fly But bullying happens far more often in the real world still, and with worse results. I once got into a debate about this with somebody else, who complained about Equestria in MLP FIM show having incompetent Rulers. Rulers in real life suck and promote war, and that is why I don't vote anymore, coming from somebody who cannot stand the GBNews audience and sometimes their hosts, I'd say they're the British equivalent of Fox News.

I'd be careful about posting anything MLP related on other platforms. While MLP forums is generally a safe space to discuss this including OCs and fanfictions, it's clearly not the same everywhere. I know Dah Onion Eater likes the Rainbow Factory fanfiction, while not my cup of tea, I can respect other people's like for it because we have a thing called freedom of expression. Why do you think I talk about my MLP fanfic fantasies here on this forum, but not anywhere else outside private discussion? keep in mind my fanfics are not even sexualized. Although I am thinking of making my OC (in adulthood after reincarnation and growing up as a Pegasi in the next life) have a secret crush on Princess Luna in alternate timeline Equestria, that's as far as that would go, even then my imaginary self would be too embarrassed to admit that to her especially if other Ponies caught onto that, and hey, at least it's better than the Rarity X Spike implication in the official show. Some people may not understand why, but different nature and nurture means different beliefs, interests and values. There are lots of fictions out there that talk about reincarnation, and characters do not always get reborn as the same species they were before. I think stories like that are more interesting however, as they help show that sentient life is to be respected no matter what form they take, and that humans are not the center of everything. If I could choose this reincarnation into Equestria fictional world like in my fanfic, I could not say no, even if I had to give up my human form after that life was over in the afterlife to do it. I want to learn from them, be one of them, contribute to the greater good with those new abilities, that would not change just because I'd become a Pony, to me that'd be a symbol of appreciation for their acceptance, and I don't believe I'm inherently better than anyone else. In a way, fan fictions like this are food for thought about the topic of speciesism.

That's the best news I've heard this week, your sister graduating to become a nurse. Healthcare workers are needed in this world, hope the job will pay and treat her well too.

The choice between indulging in daydream or defeatist pessimism from the chaotic world we live in. I know which one I'd choose. The world of MLP FIM is a whimsical fantasy I can get lost in.

Flight of Dragons Death of Sir Orrin Neville-Smythe

That is a good point there, some villains in horror films have specific targets, then you have characters who are not villains, they're simply predators who eat to survive like in Jurassic Park. I would not put them in the same category as Michael Myres or Freddy Krueger. But then if I am going to add dragons to the list I may as well consider Jurassic Park dinosaurs figurines for my collection as well, dragons are not always depicted as evil, it depends on the fiction, if you're talking about Bryargh from Flight of Dragons then yes, that guy was horrible and burned Sir Orrin Neville Smythe to death.

Might seem silly on the face of it but judging by how sadistic Queen Chrysalis was in the My Little Pony comics from what I researched in the wiki, I'd say she is in the same tier of evilness as Maleficent from Disney, cold and calculating villain. Whether you're dealing with a sadistic child killer like Freddy Krueger in A Nightmare on Elm Street or a cruel Queen of Changelings in MLP who kills a kitten in front of children to make her point, neither characters would be comfortable for us to be around if we were in any of those fictional universes. Also if I'm not mistaken in the comic version, it was implied Chrysalis uses her energy draining ability not just as a survival mechanism, she uses it to torture and mocks her victims while doing it. Yeah, I'd say that fits the description for a Halloween scare.

Thinking of some ornaments for my shelf to buy, I want this plasma globe with the two headed dragon statue. I will place it next to a Disney Maleficent statue, and villains from other fictions like Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees and Queen Chrysalis, I'll call it "Hell's Gate Collection". It's gonna be awesome.

Ooh Princess Cadance and Queen Chrysalis statues are getting made, what fun collectables. Why would you think I'd want to get a Queen Chrysalis statue? simple, it'd be a great Halloween piece in October.

I remember the Looney Tunes episode where Bugs Bunny met Count Dracula, that was hilarious when Bugs trolled him, and said "Abracadabra, I'm an umpire!" Bugs Bunny loves to throw the wildcard into things and confuse his enemies, that's exactly why I enjoy Looney Tunes.

That's some serious damage to the stadium, Holy Celestia, in this Beyblade episode Phoenix Falling, Kai and Zeo's beyblades took out the jumbotron and Cerberus beyblade nearly got destroyed while doing it, Zeo risking it all to get Kai's bitbeast, he wasn't playing around.

I agree, that was further demonstrated by how accepting Mane Six and other Ponies were toward DH. Rainbow Dash in Last Roundup episode did not abuse DH, instead she gave compassionate advice like asking her to be careful when she was playing around and she seemed to be aware of DH's limitations and did not judge her harshly for it, it wasn't just about collapsing that building, Rainbow Dash did not want DH to hurt herself. Meaning there is some level of awareness of disability in the show itself and by extension, characters. People rag on about how egotistical Rainbow Dash can be in other episodes, and look I am not her biggest fan for what she did in Tanks for the Memories either, but she does have her redeeming qualities in my opinion and this is one of them. In Last Roundup episode she does show remarkable amount of empathy for Ponies with disability, meaning she has a good heart.

Heroes of the story tried to reform Discord, it should have worked after season 4, his treachery toward Fluttershy was already bad on its own and was not cool as Fluttershy did nothing to provoke this outcome in Twilight's Kingdom, but unfortunately Hasbro were not willing to go all in with Discord's redemption arc. They acknowledge it in some episodes but then break it in another, What about Discord? is an example of that I can tell. I don't understand why writers of a show do things like this, in an episodic fiction such as various slapstick shows you find from Warner Brothers, it would not have mattered, but in a show where continuity does matter like this one, this can be distracting for viewers who are emotionally invested in the characters of the story.

There wasn't a whole lot that bothered me in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic, although I do wished the characterization of Queen Chrysalis in the show was more edgy like her comic counterpart. One thing I do hate though is how Last Roundup episode got obliterated because of a culture war, DH is one of my favourite background characters by the way, she is cute, funny and her happy go lucky behaviour makes her all the more loveable, especially Rainbow Dash's interaction with her, also it is one of the times where RD was shown at her best. And that's another reason I wished I could leave this planet someday for a better one, but Equestria does not exist, it is what it is, I ain't getting my wish, so I am stuck on this broken planet where people force opinions on each other, until the day I die.

Right back at you pal. I can see you're a fan of Simpsons Hit and Run game too, I first played it on PC, I was surprised my rubbish old laptop could run it at the time. but I managed to get a copy cheap for PS2 platform.

Because of sloppy story telling. Discord could have been a great member of Occult Ponies despite not being a Pony himself, guess Celestia got so bored with her 1,000 year rule that she wanted a court jester, but unfortunately, Discord was no ordinary clown.

BEYBLADE VFORCE EN Episode 45: Zeo Vs. Ozuma

You deserve hugs. <3 We care about you Bairro. I don't know what to suggest that would help, but you're valued here for who you are, always will be.

Princess Luna is so adorable, so are a lot of Ponies in that show, however this shows that even Princesses can have fun. Celestia bringing her sister along for the trip was very kind of her. I don't know why they got into an argument in that episode though, after everything they had been through it seems out of character for them to still carry that negativity toward each other in the final season of MLP FIM, but then season 9 was badly written from what I can interpret. Yes, I know siblings continue to argue sometimes, but with Celestia and Luna it happens too often IMO. This is not the behaviour I'd expect of either Celestia or Luna and I love them both. Glad none of us are in that fictional world to get caught in the middle of that one, while I do wish I was my OC in my fanfic, honestly, I'd rather not get involved in their arguments, if anything I'd probably storm out, or burst into tears from seeing them fight, one of the two.
