    The last research paper I worked on has published at last.

    The process is REALLY slow. I finished all my work on this 3 years ago.

    https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2316969121

    This one uses a lot of my histology and in-situ hybridization with RNAscope results.

    But no more science for me. Now I build houses and driveways... and rip them apart too! It's a sort of yin-yang thing I've got going here.

    A comedic scene from a new Clouseua story I'm fiddling with...

    I just came up with this, and imagining Peter Sellers delivering the line had me laughing for 5 minutes straight.

    Clouseau, "For you see, the murderer was... the bullet!"

    Guy in room, "The bullet?"

    Clouseau, "Of course, no one would suspect the bullet of firing itself!"

    Woman in room, "But that... that's madness!"

    Last call for Bronycon items up on Ebay!

    I'll be delisting all remaining MLP items Sept 1st to focus entirely on selling my huge stash of collectible magazines, which take up vastly more space than the MLP items. Everything here fits into a single flat box I can pick up with one hand. The magazines... weigh over 700 lbs total. Sooooo, kinda makes sense to deal with those ASAP!

Equestria's Sun... FOUND?! · 6:14pm Jul 4th, 2021

So, what if Equestria's Sun is actually a tiny white dwarf? This one is just a little larger than our Moon, and would be a perfect size to be able to pull around a planet in a tight orbit.

Though, that makes Celestia still exceedingly powerful... she's tossing a star around that's incredibly dense and massive, with an immense magnetic and gravitational field.

She'd be able to bitch-slap Goku! :rainbowdetermined2:

She'd be able to bitch-slap Goku!

Eh, no. At best she could bitch-slap kid Goku when at the beginning of Dragon Ball.
Since Z forward, Goku would downright humiliate Celestia.

5549016
In a straight fight, maybe. Given the reputation Saiyans have, he's not making it onto the planet unless he promises not to (which he won't do, because he's Goku).

5549016
Well according to Lauren Faust, Celestia can also control other stars, like the ones that aligned for Nightmare Moon's release. She's pretty friggin' powerful, I would not count her out against Goku just yet.

Oh, neat; thanks.

5549428
Still not that impressive compared to what Goku deals with.
Goku clash with Beerus was threatening the whole universe, and Goku has since grown even more powerful.
If we take the two at their best, Celestia is going to get stomped, hard.

5549574
Maybe so, but there's also Celestia's vast knowledge of spellcraft that could come into play. But then again, Goku is friggin fast.
All in all, a fun thought, but those two would be friends before they fought haha

5549016 I'm talking about if a star like this was Equestria's sun. It's more massive than ours, but made of hyper-compressed matter with immense gravity and magnetic fields. If she could push that around, she'd be STUPID powerful.

So, for the 'canon', I still default to the simple idea that Equestria has a little magical Sun, like the sort dragged around by Apollo by his chariot.

5549574 Eh, that's Goku in the NEW show... where power levels are utter bullshit and nothing matters at all because super-gods and super-God-Mode Dragon Balls exist that can undo the total erasure of multiple universes.

It's just so silly now it doesn't even interest me in the least.

5549595 But then there's Saitama... as a gag OP hero... nothing can stop him. Nothing. His cartoon powers are beyond imagination. Ultra Instinct Shaggy would be outclassed instantly! Even Bugs Bunny would fall before him! :rainbowlaugh:

5549707
You just talked about a magical star that can be more heavy than a dwarf star. I feel absurd is a word that has lost it's meaning from quite a while in the world of fictional characters that could whoop Celestia, and Goku is among them.
Now, it may be possible for Celestia to beat Goku using spells, but even then is quite the stretch.

Then we have to take into consideration that Xeno Goku may be even MORE powerful than Super Goku, who was capable to fight off someone who had the power to erase HISTORY itself.

5549708
Can't argue with that.:rainbowlaugh:

5549765 I do believe you are completely mixing up my comments.

No, the MAGICAL 'canon' Equestrian star is tiny and light, about the same as the Moon in their world.

If, in a sci-fi fanon, this little white dwarf was Equestria's Sun, THEN it would be immensely heavy and that would imply Celestia and the other alicorns (and Discord) shown to move it were incredibly powerful.

5549428
And yet she'd probably still hate being called God.

Why?

Who ever listens to that square? Hey, don't steal now! We aren't stealing, we're reclaiming the largess from the greedy. Don't kill! Oh, we know what you mean! Never kill or harm a hair on some tweaker wit fuck empty head about to gut my wife with a broken bottle like a trout because its your will! No, don't kill, as in do not take a life without warrant or immediate need. Ohhh, so kill the heretics and anyone who disagrees with our views as blashphemers!

And folks wonder why dear old Dad doesn't ring us up nowadays:trollestia:

5554624 The ENTIRE REST OF THE UNIVERSE: You Earthlings are so cute in your little cosmic prison, thinking you're people and stuff.

When you understand The Great Controversy, it all becomes manifestly obvious.

5554624
If only God founded a Church, a Divinely founded institution that cannot go into error or be destroyed by human weakness that could tell us precisely what we are to do. If only...:trollestia:

Celestia worship never made sense to me, it's not in her character.

5554745 Then that would be God Himself showing up here and blasting everyone who does not OBEY!!

...which is kinda how I run things... :pinkiecrazy:

5554875
Oh don't worry, that happens at the end.:ajsmug:

All hail Sun Butt

5554678
Not sure what that is. Care to elaborate?

5554745
Well, power begets power unto itself as they say. Its because she is so powerful that she would have worshippers who upon seeing her as some mysterious and unknowable entity, as well at the usual batch of hustlers and more alarmingly nuts who commit atrocities because they think its what she wanted.

If only God founded a Church, a Divinely founded institution that cannot go into error or be destroyed by human weakness that could tell us precisely what we are to do. If only...

Yeah, if God had only had kept things so simple before then:ajsmug:

5554951 What were Satan's arguments against God? Consider this: his lies were so cleverly-constructed that he deceived a third of the angels in heaven.

Now, think of what it would take to completely undermine such lies: an example where free will to choose between God's law and Satan's hedonism is allowed to play out, where ample evidence exists to discern the difference, and the results.

This is the Great Controversy, and this is what Earth really is.

We're kinda like "Earth" on the Fargle network, but if "Earth" was a dark drama instead of a cosmic reality show. :raritywink:

5554951
I could definitely see that happening, but there's no way Celestia would encourage such nonsense.

Sorry, can't see what that video link is as they are blocked by our network out at sea.
