Well, well, well...looky what we have here. I newbie to the ranks? before anypony asks. No, I'm not the real Spike. However much I would like to be him, I'm tragically not. I believe it's physically impossible for me to become a baby dragon over night. Not unless I borrowed one of Twilight's books and read one of the spells. Anyway, I'm getting off topic. This first blog is basically me saying 'I'm here, notice me' and all that nonsense. I hope to have some MLP stories up soon, and for some I

My thanks to everyone who chimed in on how not to make a cup of tea. The fruit of your efforts is now imbibable. But before you do, have a sample of what I couldn't fit into either the description or the story itself. Consider it a sort of teaser trailer:

Just a year ago today, Matt Braly's Amphibia came to an end. The Core was destroyed, the Calamity Prophecy was fulfilled, and Anne, Sasha and Marcy became more than what they were before.

In between working on writing to make up for an unproductive August and September, stressing over my medication, and mentally bracing myself for Canadian Thanksgiving coming up this weekend, something delightful happened.

I've normally got a hair-trigger being creeped out by mind-control, but somehow this episode worked for me. Been quite a while since I laughed so much at an episode.

Think it's that Starlight's a clever idiot that thought that would work, and that there was zero ill-intent in the whole mess, but that she still made amends for it. Good lesson there about cleaning up even the well intended messes you leave behind.

Five Things that Never Happened to Twilight Sparkle

So I'm going to Bronycon on Thursday. I'm going down with MidnightDancer, who's driving, FoughtDragon01, who's riding shotgun, and I'll be in the backseat with Megapone, where all sorts of things may happen.

(Probably sex things, because fuck your labels or the comfort of the people in the front seat.)

So I was playing SMITE (a MOBA) (gathering footage for a hypothetical gaming channel), and who should end up in my game but Csquared08? In the after-match lobby, they asked if I had any other accounts anywhere, and FIMfic came up.

Sometimes, you let a particular community get so cordoned off from the rest of your life, that's it's a bit interesting when it bleeds over into other things. It's a small internets after all.

Yes, yes, I've published yet another story. It goes by the name of The Keeper of the Grove, and I've spent a lot of time and effort putting it together so far. It's meant to be a sweet little romance fic with not only a changeling as one of the main characters, but one other being from a species of hooved mammals that definitively needs more screen time on this site - DEER. Eurasian red deer, to be precise.

...until I finally posted 1000 blogs!!!!! What should I do? I'm thinking I'll save my thousandth blog for either right before or right after Bronycon, since it'll be my first time going. What do you think?

I actually wrote something related to ponies, and a whole bunch of other stuff on other websites! Hurray!

Copy and pasting Horizon's blog about an attempted date-rape at a 'con. His blog here. I'm copying it out because, while it's important enough that I want more people to see it, I don't like just saying "hey read this other thing," and I don't have anything more meaningful to contribute than "Rape is bad" which does not strike me as an unusual opinion.

1. They don't take responsibility when they did something wrong
2. They refuse to apologize for the mistakes they made
3. They don't admit their faults for hurting others
4. They pretend that these things never happened
5. They always use the "I'm old" excuse to get away with wrongdoings

The time to break this toxic cycle is now. Stop sweeping stuff under the rug and start acknowledging the fact that when you're wrong, you're wrong. Not only to boomers, but to people from all generations.

Running Handbrake again to re-encode Rainbow Rocks into a low-res mpeg-2 file in a futile attempt to get the movie to play smoothly on my mid-1990s era computer that's sitting in the corner of my room.

It looks weird when it's paired with a 1920x1200 screen that's outputting sub-480p video, but my only problem so far has been the audio getting desynchronized with the video.
