  1. Starlight Glimmer was in a no win situation here, when mediating the spat between Princess Celestia and Princess Luna while swapping their cutie marks was a bold move on her part that could have gotten her exiled from Equestria, it was imperative to stop the argument between Luna and Celestia. Luna clearly still had unresolved problems that Celestia had neglected to discuss with her sister and help her through, so I don't feel like Starlight Glimmer was at fault for this one. I liked this episode, we get to see Starlight Glimmer putting a stop to an internal conflict and for Celestia to finally understand her sister more.
  2. Sleep deprived, only had 4 hours sleep. I'll try to have a nap later see if it helps.
  3. The reason why I say magic in DC Universe sucks is this, Constantine, if it is possible for him to accidentally trap a girl in Hell for a spell going wrong, the same is possible for any magic user in DC fiction, Zatanna, Raven, Etrigan, the list goes on. I could not think of a worse plot in a story to have something written in, and I say this as somebody who likes Wonder Woman in DCAU, I think Constantine himself is a decent character, although he exists in a different continuity entirely, but I often see him get blamed for things which amount to entrapment, and I don't like that, that is not the worst part about this though, his occupation pretty much requires him to dabble in magic and use it for self defence, it just comes with the unfortunate consequence of dabbling in unstable types of spells to banish evil spirits, but when there is practically no safeguard against sending a child into another dimension by accident, even if you're working on the side of good, those powers are worse than useless, they are broken. I see that Twilight Sparkle would sometimes get the blame in Hasbro's My Little Pony Friendship is Magic for her spells going wrong, even when she did not mean it, but at least magic in MLP is not this broken.
  4. At least in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic we don't have to worry about magic causing that to happen, accidentally sending somebody to Hell. I see Twilight Sparkle gets blamed for her spells going wrong but not to this extent. Having time to think it over, I realized just how bad magic is in DC Universe. Drawbacks for use of magic are one thing, but when you can accidentally send a child to a realm to be tortured for eternity, like in Constantine, magic is broken for the sake of edginess, it makes the spell worse than useless, it ruins the story.
  5. Extending my criticism of DC, Constantine is a poorly written character in general, gets a little girl trapped in Hell because of one of his own spells going wrong. Magic in DC must really suck if it is possible to accidentally cause that to happen. Edit: No I am not a fan of Justice League Dark, and I think it gets way more praise than it deserves. Batman did not need to be at the helm of Justice League to detect a problem with Cyborg's design that allowed Darkseid to spy on them, Batman could've investigated that any time, he chose not to, and Supes gets the blame for that as well. Batman is the techie of the group, he should have sorted it. it was more egregious later on in Infinite Crisis when Constantine got the blame for the incompetence of the gods in DC. Technically Constantine's actions were not to blame for countless universes getting wiped out, that would be the Presence and the Spectre who practically let Darkseid get away with everything, they suck.
  6. Infinite Crisis movie in a nutshell is Constantine getting gaslighted for the incompetence of gods in DC.

     

  7. Was thinking over how dumb the plot of Infinite Crisis movie really was. Constantine gets blamed for a disturbance in the fabric of reality threatening it but if the higher ups did not let Darkseid ruin a timeline in the first place, Flash would not have had to use the Flashpoint to prevent Earth from losing its habitability. Are we really going to have to discuss with WB why a story like that bothers people?
  8. I think this ethos existed with many people here even before they watched My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. Empathy appears to be strong with people here, Even in private messaging they are thoughtful to us, staff here are helpful and give advice like recommending people see Counsellors if struggling with mental health issues. I get the vibe that they've been at this for a long time. And I don't regret joining this community one bit. Disagreements of opinions happen but people are civil about it still and don't call you names.
  9. Hi Hippity Hoppity, how are you today? good to see you're still alive. :) Nice picture of Fluttershy, what episode is that from? if you don't mind refreshing my memory.

      Hiyo! I'm doing good! How are you? :squee:

      The picture is from "Feeling Pinkie Keen" :pinkiehappy:

  10. Dick Tracy, I got to say the fictional character Alphonse Caprice is scary, when you hear the words "You're dirty, you need a bath." you know he wants you gone, if you know what cement shoes are you'll know what I'm getting at.
  11. Not too much did today, removing myself from watching videos about negative topics is in order I think, it is not because I do not care about other people, there is literally nothing I can do to stop what is going on wrong with the world. Also if I see a negative news story, I sometimes end up discussing it here, and could bring moods down of other people, I don't want that. My problems are not your own.
  12. I would not even compare Equestria from MLP FIM to worlds in Abrahamic religions. Heaven as told in Christianity depending on its denomination is a system of exclusion and discrimination, really barring somebody from a realm like Heaven because they're atheist? thankfully none of that exists, Heaven does not exist. By the way that is not my post on that forum in the picture As for how I feel at this time, calm, in a word, and I am also pleased to know I am not the only one who daydreams about a fantasy what I do. Our so called trials and tribulations in real life are just a never ending cycle of oppression and abuse, we don't actually get anywhere with it, because evil is not defeated and protesting is not enough to stop them.
  13. Finding a discussion about a fantasy I talk about sometimes. I already know your answer Night Sky, you told me, but it looks like more than a few other people have the same opinion. I'd leave magic up to individuals who are more experienced and trustworthy of its use if I could live in that fantasy world. But yeah the ability to fly and be a Pegasi there would be awesome. If my family dies and I am the last sibling remaining with both parents dead in the future, that would make my life more intolerable than it is now, don't know if I'd daydream about them being in Equestria at that point though, they may not want the same fate as us in my MLP fan fiction. But yeah, it would be cool to get away from the negativity of our world, discrimination and violence. Our world is rubbish, people put profit before humanity and that has been a problem throughout history and I don't see that ever changing.

    Why is Queen Chrysalis so hateful? :(

  16. I might play some Primal Rage later. Old fighting game.

  17. I like Transformers and My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. My favourite TF movie is Transformers 1986. Despite Hotrod's blundering in his attempt to save Optimus, he did redeem himself at the end of the film.
  18. The saying "That's the way the cookie crumbles" needs to be carefully used.
  19. If I understand this correctly the reason Starlight Glimmer did this was because of a broken heart, she felt betrayed by somebody else who left her, which then led to negativity building up inside and that explains why she became like that. I think Twilight Sparkle's diplomatic side is shown here, besides it's not like she had the power to take Starlight Glimmer down, and not all fights can be won by brute strength alone. What I like about Twilight Sparkle in not only this episode but also several other episodes of the show, is she does not escalate a battle unless she has to, some people we have in the real world, selfish humans would start World War 3 just to get rid of one bad person, or even an individual they allege to be bad. Sometimes issues are more complex than people think they are, and we do not always get a desirable outcome if we charge in like muscle bound thugs. I'm not saying tyrants will necessarily listen to anything you say to them, however de-escalating conflict can be done if you try to get to the root causes of their behaviour and discuss it with them, understanding their motivations means you can potentially figure out a better way to stop them, or prevent a bad situation becoming worse.
  20. I got Sonic Origins on Nintendo Switch however I agree it was not good the solo game got taken down. Anything downloadable is not reliable, if available physical copy is best.
  21. Sipping tea, also listening to music. I'm thinking on what else in my room to get rid of and sell, because unused items and dust collectors serve no purpose.
  22. Bomfunk MC's - Super Electric I like Bomfunk MC's, to me their music is a gift from Finland.
  23. I respect Landlords who act in the interest of their tenants like this, good job for making that lady leave. A rule against neighbour harassment is definitely something that should be included in their terms of service.
