Oral Culture vs Print Culture and the divide between poverty, systems, and Leftist theory · 10:46pm Jul 21st, 2020

One of the things I frequently harp on my friends who identify themselves as Leftists is the large divide between needing to read 87 books to understand a ten-page Leftist joke, and the fact that there’s often a struggle within academia and in leftist politics to condense information down to people that, quite frankly, don’t have time to read said 87 books. My friend RoMS was asking what I meant by that, as one of the topics I frequently point toward is the difference between the oral culture

How are you feeling on a scale from one to ten?

In the era of Covid-19, there's an interesting relationship between isolation and survival. On the one hand—survival means isolation, isolation means health, health means happiness, and happiness means survival. On the other hand... does it?

None Binary Left Beef · 12:59am Nov 19th, 2020

So, it has been announced today on Twitter that MLP has its first canonically nonbinary character.

Their name is Dust Devil, and they seem to be... fast? Very fast. I haven't kept up on the comics, but I may have to dive into them again just for this. I am thrilled. Many other people are not, but this ain't about them. This is about me, and people like me, and I'm going to take a moment to explore what this means and how I feel.

State of The Stories Report · 1:16am Oct 28th, 2016

The latest chapter release of Five Star Service was, by most measures, a success. It featured for a couple hours for the first time in perhaps a dozen chapters, and gained nine faves for it. However, it also picked up three downvotes, which never happened on a single chapter save the first. That's the problem with featuring; it gets your more notice but you risk more downvotes as well... and downvotes tend to affect your story rating much more than upvotes.

Sneaky Jules Writes a Blog at Midnight To Skew the Results to a Question · 4:28am Aug 24th, 2016

First the old business: For the fifteenth or so time "I am back and writing and etc." but we'll see. I am writing Masks in another tab right now, but this chapter hasn't really done it for my motivation in the past. Maybe now that I've changed its role in the overarching plot (which I assure you, is a real thing) I'll do it.

1 a.m. Ramble · 6:17am Dec 21st, 2019

I promise you I'm not drunk.

So, with all this talk about "Rise of Skywalker" (which I have still yet to see) and it got me wanting to watch the Family Guy Star Wars episodes (which I hadn't seen since "It's A Trap" aired). Which seems kinda weird, because, I'm like "when was the last time I watched a full Family Guy episode and not just a compilation video on YouTube?"

Late Thanksgiving-y post. · 2:36am Nov 28th, 2015

Going to ramble for a bit.

I've been thinking a lot about why it is that I'm so obsessed with the Dazzlings, and came up with some reasons. Which is good, because spending months thinking about these fictional characters and only coming up with an "I'unno, I really like their hair?" would have made me feel like a complete gibbering lunatic. Possibly. I'm not sure because I don't feel that way right now.

Hehe.

Re-adulting... · 1:51am Jan 5th, 2019

Is the act of being so terribly bad at being an adult that you have to literally hit the reset button and try again in later stage of life.

Neeed some stories to read. · 12:34am Mar 28th, 2016

I'm bored and I'm planning out some more chapters for Dawn of the Ice King but I like multi tasking by reading and some story recommendations would be nice, no particular genre base. Just stories you enjoyed that you think I would.

The Civilization Problem, or Why I Don't Love Equestria Anymore · 11:14pm Jun 18th, 2017

One of my problems with FIM as it is now is Equestria itself. As much as I hate to echo the sentiments of a certain infamous author here, I do feel that the show has suffered from the shift in how it's presented Equestria as a setting; in Season 1 in particular, it came off as more of an ambiguous fantasy world with a few unique locations and ill-defined geography. There were references to places like "Los Pegasus" and such, and quite a few anachronisms, but those were done either for a quick

All Things Fade Into The Storied Past... · 4:15am Jun 27th, 2019

"... and in a little while are shrouded in oblivion.” - Marcus Aurelius

So, I noticed something weird tonight.

I was looking over my userpage and considering doing some spring cleaning and I noticed my "Needs More Love" bar was missing a story. Specifically, it had 4 instead of 5, and then I realized why.

So this is harder than I thought · 1:46pm Jul 7th, 2018

I finished chapter two for Vitam and am trying to switch back to Apples, Oranges, and PokeHearts. Mostly I am not certain what happens next. I have a big list of things that should happen at some point but yeah, which is next is the question. If anyone wants to help me choose I am more than willing to chat via pm. I really have too many characters for this story. One of my items on the list is introduce the other half of the town...there are currently 30 named characters in my notes and there

Updates galore! · 3:39pm Aug 7th, 2016

Uhh, hi guys! I've been a very busy Ice lately and haven't had much time to blog lately but I'm fixing that now to fill you folks in on what I've been doing and stuff. First off, I'm delighted that you people have been reading my stories. With the re-write of Crystalline coming out there's been a huge increase in 'ohmigosh Ice writes stuff and I wanna read it'. Just yesterday I got two PMs about what order to read my
