    New art (commissioned by me), dialogue help requested

    So, the ever awesome Moth (mochi_nation on Twitter and Mstdn.social) drew this commission for me of me server her Highness at my store.

    Problem for me is that I have no idea what they should be talking about, so y'all got any ideas?

    Artist wanted

    Long and short, I haves me a laser engraver now.
    Bad news, I can't draw worth a damn
    Worse news, I can't make heads or tails of art programs.

    A New Generation of ponies (possible mild spoilers)

    So, the time has come, G5/A New Generation the movie has dropped. Not bad, though I do agree with Dr Wolf that it seemed rushed at times, likely as he said a side effect of it being under two hours. Before I'd seen it, based on rumors and clips leaked on YouTube I would've described as 'a group of ponies go searching for the magical MacGuffin only to find out what's really important'. Seriously,

    Punting Google

    And hopefully some or all of the authors I work with will be willing to follow me. The whole story is over here but the short version is Google is being really blatant about how much they track you, and it's making me a bit uncomfortable. Yes, I'll still keep using their services as long as authors I work with use it, but I rather hope

    Ok, maybe a bit meat heavy, but you can always use less. And mangos!

Reviews rolling out · 1:19am Aug 3rd, 2020

Over on my Hopeling blog, starting with a list of new additions to my tracking bookshelf.

Not much else to say, been busy reading here and more or less eliminated my read later shelf. The way it's looking, I might be out of pony words before the end of the week, aside from story updates which is typically a do* or so chapters a week (scary considering I track almost 127** stories). Also I've been lucky enough to make an appearance in the awesome story New Horizons. Not quite the canon version of me, but mildly tweaked to make me a human turned bat pony with a number of tweaks borrowed from my RL self. Speaking of RL...

RL is normal, my computers OS is still somewhat unsettled, Linux still, but waffling between EndeavourOS LXQt or Cinnamon, both are installed on my main and previous computers, the i3 variant on my guinea pig laptop, and LXQt on my regular laptop. Previous computer was because of the ease of setting up network sharing, although I still haven't got Apache working, laptop because it's lightweight, and the old laptop simply because I needed something working on there as I'd broken my previous Arch based install. As to the main computer, it's because after using Cinnamon on the file sharing computer, I found that I liked it a lot more than the Anarchy version, so I figured I'd give it a second chance. Oh, money might be getting tight as my were (partner) has been furloughed for months, with no sign of him finding a new job or getting called back any time soon. If anyone wants to buy me a Kofi, it'd be appreciated. If you need a reason, consider these stories that I've edited or at least proofread. Yes, I've a job, but $9.50/hr doesn't go far.
