A few years ago I carved myself the shape of a promise.

The promise was to include an amount of poni in my Master's Thesis. Anyponi, someponi, everyponi – just not no poni.

Recently I finished my Thesis in philosophy of language. It's about the structural theory of meaning. And it definitely has some poni in it. I have a fragment below to show for it (I'll post the link to the official, published version whe

What really transpired in the latest episode of our beloved show, “The Gift of Maud Pie”? What was it really about? Really?

To put the answer shortly, a careful reading of the episode, especially of the logic of the gift it puts forward, offers some intriguing perspectives into pony psychology, which, as must be obvious, is nothing short of anthropomorphic – thus of utmost relevance to ourselves.

Recently I dipped my hoof in novel ground by writing a pair of fics: the Dragonshys “Gone Wrong”. The novelty of the pieces was due to their violence, which was sexual and fetishist in nature.

Putting this up for myself mostly. Worked a while ago when I was set to get that one fic published in Eqd.

I'll smuggle the ponies into my master's thesis. Be it an odd ponified phrase, a footnote or the whole friggin theme, they'll be there.

Derrida's (meta)politics will also be mentioned.

Oh yeah, and I need to write some more clop about T-Lane, Dash and Shy. Maybe it's time for Helia to make an appearance? About time, methinks...
