How to Keep This Crazy Ride Going · 4:59pm Aug 9th, 2019
Hey, you. Yes, you. Got the post-con blues? Afraid the ride is slowing down? Flutterpriest just posted a very insightful article, with lots of good ideas on how to keep it going. It's simpler than you might think.
Trotcon, Babscon, EFNW, Hahcon, MLP-MSP and so many other cons are still running strong and stronger than ever. Don't stop going to cons! There's still going to be fun to be had. There's still going to be people who make great works of art and books and other creative content. There's still so much more for us to think and create. To declare the fandom dead now would not only be a disservice to the community at large, but also to the friends you've met and made along the way. Keep participating. Keep joining groups and making friends.
But there's more. Check out the whole thing here.
The ride isn't ending. It just needs to switch locomotives.
Best,
H.V.

And I'd like to help drive the train!
Yeah, the attitude that the end of Broncon is the end of ponycons is kinda annoying me. I've had several people tell me I have to get to Everfree soon, before that ends too, for example, even though Everfree has no plans to end. Bronycon was hard to sustain because of the nature of the venue, but even though pony fandom is definitely falling off, you can enjoy some pretty itty bitty cons with just a small pool of people who care. I used to do an annual con for a webcomic that I think was still short of 100 people our very biggest year. It was a blast!
Hear hear! Y’all gotta come to Ciderfest!!! It’s still scheduled for later this year, and it’s a really fun con. Also, Whinny City is confirmed for next year; it’s also fun and well-run.
Anyway come to Trotcon
Oh wow, thank you for the signal boost <3
Keeping this crazy ride going like:

That's something we're allowed to say now?

Amen to that.
I never get post-con blues. That said, definitely looking forward to the next one. Vanhoover 2020 represent!
Maybe we should all go to GalaCon so we can get onto the autobahn and make the pony ride even faster!
