    Tradition

    This one's particular poignant. Singing this on January 1 is a twelve year tradition at this point.

    So fun facts
    1) Did you know you don't have to be epileptic to have seizures?
    2) and if you have a seizure lasting longer than five minutes you just straight out have a 20% chance of dying in the next thirty days, apparently

    Two Martyrs Fall for Each Other

    Here’s where I talk about this new story, 40,000 words long and written in just over a week. This is in no way to say it’s rushed, quite the opposite; It wouldn’t have been possible if I wasn’t so excited to put it out. I would consider A Complete Lack of Jealousy from All Involved a prologue more than a prequel, and suggested but not necessary reading.

    Commissions Open: An Autobiography

    Commission rates $20USD per 1,000 words. Story ideas expected between 4K-20K preferable. Just as a heads up, I’m trying to put as much of my focus as I can into original work for publication, so I might close slots quickly or be selective with the ideas I take. Does not have to be pony, but obviously I’m going to be better or more interested in either original fiction or franchises I’m familiar

    My brain diagnosis ended up way funnier than "We'll name it after you". It turned out to be "We know this is theoretically possible because there was a recorded case of it happening once in 2003". It turns out that if you have bipolar disorder and ADHD and PTSD and a traumatic brain injury, you get sick in a way that should only be possible for people who have no

    EFNW

    I planned on making it this year but then ran into an unfortunate case of the kill-me-deads. In the moment I needed to make a call whether to cancel or not, and I knew I was dying from something but didn't know if it was going to be an easy treatment or not.

A Respectful Response to Accusations · 12:50am Mar 14th, 2017

Recently, Aragon made a blog post about fashion, involving me. Namely, he claimed that bowties were uncool. I insist they are a subtle elegance.

I would like to make a polite and measured response, and state my case.

A very measured response indeed n____n

Counterexample: pre-2006 Tucker Carlson. :pinkiesick: Your argument is invalid.

The fashion! It's too fabulous!

I could see it on the runway.

...no, really. I wouldn't be surprised. Fashion is weird.

This is probably the most rational and calm blog post I've seen in a while. :scootangel:

...huh. It just occurred to me that may be more of a problem with me than anything else. :facehoof:

Man. You look like you're into bondage and just fucked a Pinterest aficionado. You look like the gay cousin of the cenobytes. You look like you bought a katana in your local mall. Like you got drunk at a Steampunk Fare. You look like your boyfriend just told you his biggest fantasy is getting a blowjob from a butterfly swarm.

Only two of those things are true.

Bowties are ok. I guess.

It's fine, though. You'll come around to the necktie soon enough, and from there, it's only a short walk tot he cravat.

I feel like it says something that I know which two...

It's the fact you tied the bowties tightly enough that one is actually pushing up your lower eyelid. :rainbowlaugh:

4455204
He does not, however, look like a 80's Vampire in a gay bar.

I wish I had some bow ties. ...And knew how to tie them.

4455204 80s Werewolf at a Wolf Pride parade, imo

We all know the real truth. Bowties get all the ladies.

They tie elegance and smarts together. Bowties are important.

Bowties are cool.

If it's not the butterfly swarm one, it should be.

Don't make me commission the fic for that.

4455939

Write it.

Have Numbers take the role of Twilight, who doesn't really know what to do when it comes to weird berdroom stuff but still wants to be a good girlfriend.

Make it so her boyfriend is Flash.

Name it Swarm of the Sentry.

4455980 *collapses to the ground, howling in laughter* Horizon I will pay you to do this. Name your price. Money, drugs, women?

4455269
Yes indeed. Bowties are cool.
Irrelevant fact but pones and Derpy with her escapades with Doctor Whooves is what introduced me to Doctor Who..
Back to the original point - yes, bowties are cool at any point in time or space.

Swarm of the Sentry

:flutterrage: You are horrible and should be ashamed of yourself.

…f-followed

baka

4456000 :raritydespair: Oooooohhhh so tempted. But I'm pretty sure that if I write anything else before publishing Time Enough For Love at least four people will murder me in my sleep. I'm pushing it, as it is, sneaking in a fic for 4455189's Princesses Behaving Badly contest.

. . .

Waaaaaaaiiiiit a minute.

*goes off to check whether Floozy Twilight has been taken*

EDIT: Curses! Beaten to the punch!

4456063
Yeah, that was actually the very first completed entry.

4455980
If I wrote sexual content, I might take you up on this. Though it would largely involve TwilightNumbers explaining how butterflies have externalized mouthparts and are physically incapable of fellatio as Flash longs for the sweet embrace of proboscises and/or death.

You know, with so many examples, I am surprised no one pointed out how cool bow ties are.

Because bow ties are cool.
