    Not back to KSP yet, but I did do some space stuff.

    I haven't touched KSP since my early experience with KSP2 was a combination of glitchy game and impossible-to-read UI. I've been thinking about it here and there, but I've had other things to do.

    But that doesn't mean I'm not doing space stuff, and yesterday I finally edited and posted a video of such.

    My muse is nagging me.

    I've done very little writing the past five months, partly due to being busy, but mostly due to recurring headaches when it's writing time.

    I have a couple weeks off, and I'm going to try to make time to get back on my projects (the Octavia story and novelizing Peter is the Wolf). But my mind... well... it's trying to jump ahead, or possibly back.

    Life imitates art...

    So, a privately built and operated space probe became the first US lander to soft-land on the Moon last week- Odysseus.

    Extreme Nitpicky Trivia Help Wanted

    I've finally begun work on that story I promised.

    I need a bit of info for a minor touch, though:

    Does anybody know if, through the entirety of MLP:FiM, any month in the Julian/Gregorian calendar has been named by any character in any episode whatever?

    I'm prepared to make up month names, but if they use the same ones we do I won't bother.

Little, pointless things that amuse... · 7:42pm Nov 14th, 2018

As I type this, the up-votes on The Maretian are exactly 1,600.

The down-votes are exactly 40.

This is such a James May moment.

40 squared is 1600! :pinkiehappy:

Assuming that's what Kris is actually talking about... :rainbowhuh:

Ah, Captain Slow, I can see your point!:pinkiehappy::facehoof:

Huh. Ain't that a thing.

the fun things you find in life.

4968638 James May was formerly one of the presenters of Top Gear and currently works on Amazon Prime's The Grand Tour. He's famously anal-retentive and OCD, and one of his quiet little driving games is to try to hit the zeroes perfectly pumping gas with only one release of the pump trigger. He's the kind of person who would gleefully spend an hour putting all his wrenches in perfect order after giving them a polish, then clean the gaps in a car's dashboard with a Q-tip. Twilight Sparkle and he have a bit in common. Anyway, 1600/40- the nice round numbers- would please him, and that amuses me.

... I would do that too. It's relaxing...
