    I watched "A New Generation" the other day

    It was fine
    I realized after the fact that I didn't spend any time thinking about which of the girls should kiss, though, or which of the background ponies had cool designs and possible backstories
    What is wrong with me???


    but I guess it's kind of cool that G3.5 had seven main characters, then G4 had six, and now we're down to five

    I wrote another non-pony thing

    Sorry, it's been what? It's been how many years since I was a prolific writer? Really? Well that's no good. Here I squeezed out some Symphogay. Some of the narration is uh a little... experimental? also maybe known as "bad"? look it's been a long time okay. But if you come to me because you like dialogue-heavy stories where everyone's

    After many years of independent study, I can confidently announce that the song most likely to start playing in my head at random intervals is................

    Babs Seed.

    I'd really have expected Winter Wrap Up to win but no, it's the CMC all the way. Hearts Strong as Horses is up there too.

"Friendship is Physics" translated into Russian · 7:56pm Dec 10th, 2015

I only found out about this today, but in case you speak Russian or are working on learning it, this is apparently a thing.

Ugh, the gdoc is in horrible Russian cursive. D:

Now backtranslate it with Google and read the result! :D

3609160 I'm not seeing cursive, and as far as I can tell it's supposed to be rendered in Arial, so I'm not sure what you're seeing? Curious.

From these two experiments, backing them with simple information from the natural sciences, we conclude that some beliefs (superstitions, to be precise) of our origins lie. For example it is not necessary to chase away: immediately discard all idle gossip about Epona, the so-called "first pony." From one appears much. Devotion to the solar and lunar Mare Mare that have created our family, and then left a legacy unicorns power over the heavenly bodies, sounds convincing, but still plausible. For the two ponies bred many? Take even days today: unicorns and Pegasus ponies around the earth differ from each other, to say nothing about festralov, hippocampus or other unproven inventions - such variety emerged from such an insignificant beginning?

...not bad.

Russian has two styles of writing, and the one in that document is considered 'cursive'. Which, if you know only the base Cyrillic alphabet, is completely unreadable because it likes to just change letters into other letters for no reason. :( Russian is a horrible language, is what I'm saying.

3610552 Whaaaat? But cursive is a style of handwriting! Where does Russian get off changing words into other words for no reaso...

I see what you mean.
