First things first, if you don't know what the title of this post is from, watch this: https://youtu.be/8Tc7MH5ZXbg

Full disclosure, at the time of writing this I am barely hanging on after an all nighter. Man, I really don't handle these as well as I did in college...

...In retrospect, I probably didn't handle them very well in college either.

As it says in the title, this is where I share random ideas with the world.
There will be more of these posts.

First off, would anyone like to edit my stories? I would very much appreciate it. Reply or PM to contact me

Anyway, on to rambling.
Where in canon does it say Luna can raise the stars? I don't remember where it says this. She definitely can raise the moon, but when does the cartoon show Luna raising the stars?

It's been a little bit and I need to make my fingers start pressing keys so that progress might be made tonight, so here we are! Progress check.

Any minute now. I’m sure of it. There’s a story coming soon, I promise. I've submitted it, I'm sure moderators are doing their best to do their thing. Doesn't stop me from checking my email every two seconds.

My laptop’s ‘a’ key still refuses to work half the time without stern reprimanding, so that’s fun to put up with.

And it bloooooows! Yeah, real big shocker, I know. My home boys tried to warn me (by which I mean a bunch of people on the internet with a Youtube account), but I wanted to see for myself if the film was as terrible as so many said it was, rather than just parrot what has been said. And yeah, it's bad. Not even hilariously bad (okay maybe in some parts but that's not noteworthy praise). As a tl;dr, the film as a movie is subpar and hardly entertaining in a plain movie-goer sense; certainly not

A few months ago, I heard that there was this lady named Tomi Lahren of Glenn Beck's TheBlaze who propagated a new lie on the world: Beyoncé showed during this year's Super Bowl that she wants to overthrow the white domination!!!

Not only is the statement Ms.

Time for a ramble!!

I felt it’s been up in the air for a long time what the cutie map is really about.
Of course we know the surface of it. The map is a magic mcguffin summoning chosen ponies to deal with ‘friendship problems’ on different scales.

But why? And, I suspect the original purpose behind all this, whatever it may be, might gone off track over time.

Let’s take a look at that, while I Ramble.

I don't think I had a lot of issues with motivation when it came to wanting to do things growing up. I thought it was a motivation issue, but later I learned it could be chalked up to executive dysfunction. (ADHD go brr) Thanks to meds I now have a far better handle on executive function but have no idea how to actually keep myself motivated with a project. For the longest time, I kept myself motivated by writing for and with others, my friends! But when my friends get busy with their own

Went on a tangent on another site, but wanna try and gather it as a more coherent thought somewhere.

Been on my mind for a while, wondering where the MLP Kirins would fit into the Fallout Equestria Timeline, since the FoE line of events stops at the early seasons of the shows. Thus many things we see and learn in the many later seasons didn’t occur in FoE. Such as no Alicorn Twilight Sparkle. No reformed Discord. And no discovery of the lost tribe of MLP kirins.

Hey, what with my vacation, I let this get away from me. Well, no more! If you've been impatiently waiting for an update on what's been going on at my review blog, One Man's Pony Ramblings, then wonder no more! Here comes nearly a month's worth of what you missed, including both the usual mix of reviews and commentary, and guest posts from while I was gone! You'll definitely want to give the latter a look, if you haven't already; there's

Today I have another two stories to review, they are:

Today's Review Roundup covers three weeks, instead of two. Why? Because I had it in my mind that this week was two weeks out from the last post, rather than last week. Granted, all I would have needed to do to see the error of my ways was look at the dates involved, but obviously I didn't do that. Well, here's an extra-large look back at what's been going on at One Man's Pony Ramblings recently:

Remember to get your March Madness brackets in this week! Well, do it right now if you're in one of those moronic "you have to pick the play-in games, too" pools, but regardless, this is the week to pretend you've watched a single college basketball game all year! This is the week to nod sagely when someone mentions "RPI" and act like you know what it stands for! This is the week to pretend you aren't just picking teams based on whose mascot is prettiest!

Sorry that this is coming out a few days "late;" between a barbershop chorus leadership conference I went to over the weekend and MLK day, I just didn't get around to putting this roundup together until tonight. Still, it's not like the fanfic reviews on my blog have suddenly become obsolete since then, right? Right. So here's a quick recap of what I've reviewed in the last two weeks:

Since the Iowa caucuses start tomorrow, this seems like a good time to remind all of you who 1) are U.S. citizens, and 2) are over 18, or will be by November: don't forget to get registered to vote! This site can help you out with telling if you're registered, and finding out how to fix that if you aren't. And don't forget to vote in your primary or attend your caucus; if you're not sure when to

After more than a month, Obs' Secret Santa story compilation is finally a thing! Thanks to the author of At Least There Was Good Coffee for writing me a perfectly silly story about Gusty (the Whinneapolis delegate from

Do you ever have people start noticing a particular story of yours, seemingly for no reason? Because I've had four or five people add The Showmare's Tale to their libraries in the past couple of days, and I have no idea why. I mean, I guess it was probably linked to somewhere, but I don't know where. If any of you happen to have the answer, I'm always curious to see what people are saying about my writing, even if it's some of my older stuff.

I was going to post this on Sunday... but I've been a busy lad all weekend. Blerg.

BUT! On the un-blergiest note possible (and if you're already a regular visitor to One Man's Pony Ramblings, you've already seen this, but it's worth looking at again): behold!
