    Time ghost

    MLP:FiM came out 14 years ago.

    I first used the internet in 1996.

    I don't know exactly when, but sometime soon we will hit the point where MLP has been part of the internet for literally half the time it's existed in my life.

Behold · 8:29pm Jul 27th, 2023

So a while back I saw Wil Wheaton share this post, with these two images in it:

And I looked at those and thought, y'know what, I really need that image but with Star Swirl the Bearded.

And now it exists! Behold, my magic boi!

When Star Swirl was asked why, despite all his accomplishments, his epithet became "the Bearded"...

Now ask them to do one of him pondering the orb.

Let's be honest, the real reason for that is that he visited a town once where there already was a Starswirl and they needed some way to distinguish him from her, and it stuck.

"This orb is terrible. This low-grade crystal gives a blurry image and the reception is crap. I told them to upgrade the network, but nopony ever listens to my advice since the Yak Incident."
