    Cadance of Cloudsdale (so far) now in Spanish!

    Thanks to the generous SPANIARD KIWI, the text of Cadance of Cloudsdale so far is now in Spanish! Mr. Kiwi has done a tremendous amount of work translating many of my stories into Spanish, but this goes above and beyond. If you're curious, you may visit the project so far here at this

    Happy Cadance Day 2024!

    Things feel a bit subdued today, due to the coincidence of Valentine's Day and Ash Wednesday through a quirk of the liturgical calendar. It is somewhat difficult to juxtapose the splash of corporate-encouraged love with the festival that literally exists to remind us of our mortality. The pink of Valentine's washes against the purple of Lent. So I'm in a pensive mood, more so than usual on this

    Ciderfest is a wrap!

    Just got home from PVCF and it was an amazing con experience! The minific-based ARG that circulated around the con the whole weekend was high-concept, and I was worried about engagement, but everyone seemed to really get into searching out the hard-to-find stories concealed around the convention hall (in places as obscure as "the desktop wallpaper on one of the monitors in the video game room,

#MournEverything (quasi-spoilers for "Heart is Where the Home is") · 5:22pm May 15th, 2014

No doubt about it: These past four seasons have been a real foal-of-a-mule for the fandom. Scootaloo's first scooter, with us since Season 1, fell over a waterfall and was lost forever. The Apple Family's jalopy was converted into a boat and then sunk. Thousands upon thousands of valiant Plundervines lost their lives. What about that cat made out of dust in Goldie's disquieting cat-pony hoarder's den? Or Sethisto's hope that S4 would contain any Trixie whatsoever? King bucking Sombra? That smart-looking green top hat that, in a truly shocking moment, was reduced to ashes by Chrysalis's cruel disintegration beam? Two and a half complete Apple Family barns (parasprites, rainbow nuke, Pinkie storm)? The paper covering of the hoop that Scootaloo jumped through during the flag-carrying ceremony (multiple times)? Now is not the time for reasoned thought and perspective. Now is the time to celebrate everything that the writers have cruelly torn away from us by making soppy gray-scale YouTube videos with Sarah McLachlan backing tracks. #MournEverything . Do it for the feels.

Don't forget the time Spike stole Opal's mouse toy and ripped it to pieces to frame Owloysius. #RIPMouseToy

You are a silly, silly man. Never change.

Wasn't most of Ponyville eaten by parasprites?. Most of the buildings now are just a couple of years old, the library just took a little longer to join it's magically digested fellow buildings.

I wonder if Twilight had to pay any reparations for casting that spell.

Rarity's creepy foray into S&M, consumed by parasprites and never mentioned again. #BringBackBridles

Also "Daring Don't," which seems to have been erased from our collective consciousness. #WouldThatItWere

Rest in peace, Cadance's original wedding dress and Shining Armor's really big force field. 2012-2012

Dude, this isn't "Miss Harshwhinny is Best Pony." You can't just sit around replying to your own posts.

2114401 implying that this entire website isn't MissHarshwhinnyIsBestPony.net.

2114410 implying the entire universe isn't Ms. Harshwhinny's personal plaything.

I'll never get over the loss of the Appleoosan clock tower. Cruelly, it seemed the bell tolled for thee.
And let us not forget Ponyville Town hall roof, callously destroyed by that abominable Satan-worshiper, Derpy Hooves. She got what she deserved for that slaughter.

Rainbow Dash's original house lost to unknown circumstances.
#GoneWithTheWind

2114410 by the way, not a real website, sadly. We seem to be missing a golden opportunity.

Mourn those things all you want. I'm upset that I no longer have a library to check books out of any more.

Tho' I suppose I don't have to worry about that overdue fine now...

She's gone through quite a few through the years. That wasn't her favorite mouse toy, but I try to stay out of claws reach...

--Sweetie Belle

The notes Twilight lost to Dash and Pinkie's invisible ink prank. #NeverForget

You're just having a hell of a time, aren't you?

2114520
In more ways than one!

The letter from Princess Celestia that Garble tossed into the lava. #WordsMatter

2114470
Well, as 2114410 noted earlier, if you actually still have any of the offending books checked out, Twilight will love you to pieces.

#LaughAtEverything :rainbowlaugh:

2114558

Wonder how many library books we could find that were checked out or overdue if we went around Ponyville? My beginning magic books, those applied physics books I saw Twist carrying around, that copy of "The Princesses Bridle" Rarity doesn't think I saw her check out...

--Sweetie Belle

I think I've lost what you're talking about, now. :derpyderp2:

Unless you're taking the #SaveTree as a serious, actual beef with the writers?

2114796
Nope. Jokes all around. I just saw that we graduated from #SaveTree to #SaveBoneless this morning, and I thought, what the heck!

I think we've all learned an important lesson: Never rent anything to a pony.

2114841
Wait, it took you this long to get that?

2114841
They leave teeth marks on everything and always claim they were already there.

Out of all we've lost over the course of this show, the Astronomical Astronomer's Almanac hurts the worst... :ajsleepy:

Someone forgot about the 4th apple family barn, the one that was destroyed by fruit bats or a runaway wagon or whatever!

2115269
Gah! You're right! The tragedies keep mounting!

2114628
You mean there's some hope that a copy of The Magic of the To-Do List might have survived? :twilightoops:

2115617

I'm not sure if anypony'd have checked that out, but Twilight kept going over to that old castle for research, right? She might have brought some reference books an' stuff with her and left them there. She was just there right before the library was destroyed, too.

I'm surprised noponies mentioned that huge thing of nachos Spike threw in the trash in "Twilight Time". I'm still in mourning for those. Spike makes good nachos...

--Sweetie Belle

R.I.P Rarity's beautiful glass slipper.

Pulverised into oblivion in a moment of panic (rather than simply put back on).

May you shine in horeshoe heaven forevermore.

The ball Twilight teleported into in "Lesson Zero"! Won't someone think of the poor ball? :raritydespair:

The Ponyville water tower, so valiant in its role in the saving of the town against a cranky Ursa Minor, sadly met its demise halfway up a mountain being first used as a hoarding barrel and later a Wonderbolts prison by a rampaging Spikezilla.

RIP water tower; Ponyville's #1 line of defence against rampaging giant monsters. Your bravery won't be forgotten.

I just wanted to emphasize the tragedy involved here. Look at these yummy nachos...

And then look at what happened to them.

Those poor, poor nachos. I'd have gladly made a home for them. I think we should all mourn them, RIP 2014-2014...

You're right! It's terrible! :fluttercry:
