Reactionary (maybe alarmist?) thinking below. I say that because I'm trying to process some stuff that has been tossed into my sphere of thinking in the last week, and I have yet to find any counter sources that might anchor these views. Stream of consciousness about the economy, and society, and the future. I'm perfectly aware that this is just a starting point, and not the end point, of where I stand on the state of the world today. It's such a big thing to make any final calls on with any

Started yet another story, since I got some determination. I still plan on continuing Puglestia, but I have to be in a special kind of mood for that one. This new story is actually something I started a few weeks ago, but I didn't like how it was originally going. I deleted the first chapter and started over. Now, after another day of writing, the first chapter is out.

Most Beloved Readers, here's question I've been asking everyone for the past few days:
Does it count as an unusual ship if the couple is canon...but nobody really thinks they're in love? I'm pretty sure it does.

Just finished watching Valkyrie Drive - Mermaid. All 12 episodes. And....I'm struck by the thought that Valkyrie Drive is what Steven Universe would be like if it actually was produced in Japan. It has nearly everything SU has: Fusions, lesbians, awesome battle scenes, and a great theme song.

I apologize if this blog post seems a bit too rough or defensive, but simply put, I haven't had the drive, the 'oomph' to write as of late. And it's not just for this fandom, but for ALL my other fandoms. I mean, I go to Google Docs wanting to write and as soon as I open up any given document, my mind just blanks and I can't write a damn thing.

How's it been going, guys? I don't have much of an excuse for why I'm getting slow on updates in my fics, mostly because my new job has been making me stress out and exhausted by the time I get home. Sure I still had more time the rest of the afternoon/evening before I start again in the next one, but don't you ever just not want to do anything after having such a shitty day? Even when I do want to write, ideas either come and go, or I feel like focusing more on one story than the other, and

Another season of pony has come and gone. And what a bucking season it was The Crusaders got their Cutie Marks, Discord learned two friendship lessons, Derpy Hooves spoke, we got to see all our favorite old villains again, Diamond Tiara got redeemed, and Big Macintosh became BBBBFF (Best Big Brother Best Friend Forever). Not to mention the massive feels train the writers seemed intent on pummeling into the fandom every five episodes or so. Our little ponies (get it?) have come

Princess Luna created me in order to make sure she never would forget the pain she caused Equestria.

But this? This is not the way to accomplish my directive.

A good friend of our family died last week, and I'm writing this from our church, where the funeral is at.

Jim Ertel was a great man. 70 years of marriage, and I and my brother had the honor of driving his power chair to and from his seat during mass.

He lived a long, healthy life of 92 years.

I will miss him greatly, and so will his loved ones and family.

RIP Jim Ertel.

You will be missed.

The time is something special, it's something that cant be replaced, and one gets better with time. Time changes things, it changes people, it changes places, ways to live, countries, opinions, and time also changes itself over time, what I'm trying to say it's that, everyone get's better at anything with time, sometimes you may be alone, sad, frustrated, unsatisfyed, or even hurt, at the edge of death, but it will change, because at other times, you may be happy, accompanied, succesful, and

I know, I know. I'm pretty horrible with actually updating the story more than 10 words at a time. Hopefully I"ll be able to get a bit done in the next little bit.

Story.

Well, the Friendship Games movie is coming out this weekend, and I'm going to do my absolute best to have the second chapter out before then. So far, my progress is somewhere in the neighborhood of 50%, give or take 5%. Still, I felt obligated to share with you readers a little sneak preview. I'll be showing the entire first scene of the chapter, approximately 1800 words, and with lots of interesting details coming to light and even more questions being raised. I hope you all enjoy it!

I realized I hadn't really posted a blog in a while and figured it was time for an update.

So, I've been working on another BCU fic which I'm trying to get done because it may kick off Phase 3 (Maybe. It depends on which one of us authors gets our story done first). After that, "Consequences" will resume in earnest and get back on schedule. I finally feel able to take this on after the 20 year friendship I mentioned elsewhere self-destructed.

So, full confession, I have a lot of “Fimfic Famous” friends. I won’t list them because, well, that would be weird, and rude, but I have a lot of people I chat with with (some) regularly who are fairly successful and popular on this website. I have a lot of different interactions with them, but one that has occurred with an alarming amount of regularity is something along these lines;

Them: “My work/standing/ability is garbage.”

Just telling you guys what's been going on. So college is okay. The work isn't too overwhelming so that is good. I'm working (job wise) as hard as I can. In fact, I'm actually writing this during my shift. See, I was hoping I wouldn't be working today and see the Friendship Games, but unfortunately they needed me to work today because there is a HUGE group of people coming in to see the Pope. The hotel I work at is pretty close tho Philly and the pope arrived here today. So, yeah. I did the
