    Apologies to ….

    Where do Bronies go when they die?
    They don’t go to Heaven where the angels fly
    They go to Equestria, visit the pegasi
    Don’t seem them again until Anon comes by



    If you got this reference, go take your aspirin, your back probably hurts.

    Literary raccoon

    Looking through the new stories every day feels like digging through a dumpster, trying to find that one story which makes the dumpster-diving worthwhile.

    Most days I just walk away feeling dirty.

    FIMFiction missing features

    Of the features on the site that are missing, the most glaring is default view filtering. In short, your home view of stories should be filterable, and those filters persistent.

    Without this, you essentially have only one choice: Include or not include mature stories.

    The uselessness of an "AI generated" content ban

    The thread on this turned into a shit storm and I get too many emails already to get pinged on that, so I stopped posting over there.

    Here's my final comment on this, for anyone who cares: It doesn't matter. It's a ban without use.

    As time->inf, quality->0

    Story quality feels like it has dropped sharply since FiM ended. The new story pages are an endless quagmire of isekai crossovers, niche fetishes, and rehashes of ideas from 2012.

    It might be time to give up.

Zombie stories and zombie self · 4:14am Sep 16th, 2022

I feel like a zombie. Bleh.

Speaking of zombies: Have you ever read a story through dozens of chapters, and then found the author only updates rarely? By the time they update you’ve forgotten details of the story and can’t be assed to read it all over again?

Many good stories I have given up on because of this problem. Authors, please commit to reasonable updates, or release shorter chapters. If you can’t update inside a month, you’re doing it wrong.

while i would prefer to get my stories on the regular, this is all for free. I’ll wait. If too much time passes and I lose the thread, I’ll wait till it completes, or check back once a year to catch up on things.
