    My Very Last Blog Post - Goodbye

    As of now, I think the time has come to finally abandon my Fimfiction page. I don't particularly want any involvement in the MLP community any longer and I hold no interest in continuing to be an active member. While my page remains open to everyone, I've logged out permanently and don't think I'll return to it or use it again. No more blogs, no more stories, no related content - it's over.

    I'm never going to be the person that... (Facts of life)

    I'm never going to be the person who goes out drinking with friends in the pub at the end of the week,
    I'm never going to be the person to enter a stable relationship,
    I'm never going to be the person to cry for those who won't cry for me,
    I'm never going to be the person who gives up over a little tough break,

    Either stay or leave. Don't play me about.

    If you're staying, stay.

    If you're playing around with me, kindly fuck off. I'm not in the mood.

    Either follow or don't follow. It really is that simple. Make up your mind already.

    Thank you. :ajsleepy:

    Need a distraction from your low mood? Here's an old photo of my guinea pig :3

    Because I'm sad and because my guinea pig is an adorable fwubby enchanted squeaking potato, here's Oscar laying down and snuggling into his brother, Guinness's guinea bum. Don't ask why he did that, just look at how cute he's being. Requires all the ear rubs. Should have called him Sir Purrsalot. 🐹

    ''Applejack, are you gay?'' French Translation - if you're interested.

    Back when I introduced this story a few years ago, I was approached by a French Translator called Rainbowsoarin007 and they requested me to allow them to turn my story into a French translation for viewers in that part of the world and those who speak it.

I'm sourcing parts for a restoration project, but had no luck so far finding the correct parts, and here's why...(Left-Handers are a pain) · 7:06am Jul 7th, 2020

I'm looking for guitar parts. I want to do a project to keep myself busy, possibly make a video of me doing it, however likely or unlikely it might be for me to do. You can find right-handed parts anywhere with no problem. However, the one I'm looking at modifying is a left-handed one, of which parts are scarce and hard to come by, meaning they usually have to be imported from an international country. That can cost a fortune. None of the general websites I've searched have got what I want.

*Claws at eyes and screeches like cat* Is it so hard for a guy to find ONE LH pickguard for his Stratocaster? A pickguard and a neck is what I want mainly, but I can't find them anywhere that's in my price range. I'm trying to find parts that are ready to instal as soon as I open them from their packaging to save time. I don't trust myself with power tools, period. Nope. If I don't end up slashing my finger with a saw, I end up burning myself on both my hands with a solder iron. (I'm clumsy, alright? I'm probably tech cursed.)

For those of you who don't know, being a musician and modifying / customising your guitars is definitely not a cheap hobby. That's why I spend my time trying to be as cost-efficient as possible. I'd rather have things ready to install and use the moment they arrive for time reasons and because I don't know the first thing about preparing them myself. This is the first time I'm attempting a custom job, so I don't want to jump in at the deep end. Regardless, I'll have to keep searching, but this is starting to grind on me more than the time I tried to find ONE POT for that amplifier I salvaged from a recycling centre and got it working again. You wouldn't believe how long that took.

Welp, looks like I'm going to be sat around waiting and searching for parts and junk. I think this song is most fitting for this situation...
