I track the beginning of the end to Episode 100 (Slice of Life), where Hasbro sang the swan song to the brony community, focusing the content of the show exclusively on the intended audience. Good for them, though, as they managed to keep the main show going for almost a decade, plus several movies and sideshows and a comic book series.

In Spanish, or at least here in Mexico, we have a saying that said "one bullet wound every trip". Well, for the last three groups, I lost a microwave oven with the first group, the fridge lost its gas with the second one, and a little after Hurricane Grace (I think), the third group comes in, and it turns out that one of the air conditioner units is tripping its circuit breaker.

12 days after "the most powerful earthquake to hit Mexico in more than a century", we got a 7.1 eartquake. Softer, but the bloody earthquake had a much, much closer epicentre (like 100km versus some 1,000km). My city is currently in ruins, and I'm afraid of what I will find when I get off work.

Cheers, Republicans!

Considering that The Smooze used to be an apocalyptic natural disaster in G1, and what does it look like on G4, I just spent an entire episode waiting for this to happen:

And, in unrelated manner, here's the latest pony vine:

I'm going to hell for posting this video:

We are trendy!

In this group we wish to promote awareness and discussion about adoption, orphanhood and children at risk.

Feel free and stop by and stick around!

I am deeply sorry about that.
I love working on this story, but I am currently a bit too stressed to keep going on that story, and I am channelling into other pursuits, mainly business.

All I can promise is that the story is not abandoned.
