Let R = { x | x ∉ x }, then R ∈ R ⟺ R ∉ R... or is it?

    Against Stupidity

    I figure I’ll do some popular sociology. I’ve reached the limit of what I can do at the present time, and I need to take a break from all the doomscrolling, because there’s only so much war crime bingo I can read before I go do something emotionally motivated and ultimately useless.

    Good morning, Vietnam

    My foreign friends often ask me – the very few that know I’m Russian – what does the average Russian think about Ukraine.

    You can see why I have always kept this private now.

    Lame Pun Collection

    So I decided to trawl conversation logs for throwaway lines I spout on occasion. Because otherwise I’d forget them entirely, and some of them are actually good ideas. Granted, most of them are stupid puns… But I like puns, and I’m still not sure why you’re supposed to cringe at them.

    Rational Magic

    I basically improvised most of this lecture from memory when talking with DannyJ yesterday, but then I thought, why not blog this, should at least be food for thought. It’s not directly pony-relevant, more like a general topic of discussion which one needs to meditate on when writing fantasy – but that includes ponyfic, so you might be interested.

No, I’m not dead.

Ok, maybe a little.

Yes, I will eventually get back to writing pony.

Not that a lot of people seem to care, but for those that do, I still have things to say, jumbled and distorted as they may be.

You can read DannyJ’s critical review of Season 8 if you’re interested in what sort of things I’m dealing with emotionally.

In fact, read it even if you aren’t.

I still look forward to the rest of Aporia, however long it takes.

We're all dealing with season eight, in our own ways...

I mean, the "last seen" thing on your profile has been bearing that out? I can't exactly complain about people putting off writing but still doing reading for fairly obvious reasons? Seriously, I literally have a hundred other stories I'm waiting on the conclusion of according to my "Tracking" library.

Aporia is amazing and, in my opinion, criminally under-viewed. Having said that, you have a life and that must take precedence. I can only speak for myself but I am genuinely looking forward to more of your writing; whenever you are able to work on it.

Well, I care what you've had to say so far. Aporia in particular has been painfully interesting.

I too, am a fan of Aporia

I care Oliver! I will show my continued appreciation Of Aporia by eating a sandwich while watching a magical girl show.

Ah, I'm sorry you've been having troubles.
I'm glad you're not dead, though; good luck.

I don't have doubt in Aporia. :raritywink:
