So it's May 2017, and I haven't been heard of on here since December. I'am writing this blog just to touch on how 2017 has been so far writing-wise and to explain why I haven't published any stories lately.
I am just going to say this outright, 2017 has been a fucking nightmare in terms of trying to write fics. This isn't due to any unforeseen circumstances outside of my control, it's mostly all my fault.
So let me walk you through this madness month by month.
A friend of mine invited me to a Disney costume theme party. I decided to go as Donald Duck. When I got to his house, he opened the door and took one look at me before shaking his head. "Sorry Unique. You can't come in my house dressed like that." I was puzzled. I didn't understand what was wrong. "What do you mean?" I asked, rightfully annoyed. "You said in the invitation to come dressed as a Disney character. I'm Donald Duck!"
I continue my new In the Closet video series with this latest on the Season 6 finale of MLP. So what did I really think?
Mobile versions of sites, and mobile apps to replace sites (facebook, reddit) piss me off.
For starters, 99% of mobile sites/apps solve the problem of "How do we adjust our site designed for 1920x1080 down to fit a tiny phone screen?" by just cutting out over half the useful features. Don't have room for a search bar? Delete it. Don't have room for formatting options? Delete them. Don't have a keyboard for useful shortcuts? Delete all the shortcuts.
Update 2016/04/21: There are new infos about the situation with Sony and pony music and new things we can do to fight it! Please visit this blog entry to read about all the new developments:

IN WHICH I GO DARK FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE
Hey, did you notice that my heading isn't bolded or underlined like my other 195 headings? Well, there's a reason for that.
Please spread the new shipping around will you? There's a pie in it for you if you do. But I'll have to check that Piemations hasn't gangbanged it first...
Staff edit: No unofficial episode uploads permitted.
And you will NOT be disappointed. This is a very sweet episode, and it's going to give all you Changeling lovers a bunch of new ideas for your fanfics, trust me!
Also, eat your words Cloperella! I called it! Twilight WAS having a fantasy moment about Starlight's path if she sent her away! Called it! Subscribe to me!
Watch this show. If you don't, you're missing out on a damn good thing.
I have spoken. Until the next episodes of MLP come out stick your plastic vampire fangs into your gobs, and sit the hell down to watch this very VERY promising new show based on one of the most iconic video game franchises in the history of gaming.
Also, the best line in the history of anime has been born from this show.

If you get chance guys and ladies, please would you mind giving this YouTuber a chance to entertain you? I recently discovered this bloke and I found his content hilarious and silly. I figure if I enjoyed his weird comedy, you might find something enjoyable in it as well.He doesn't upload content often, but maybe if we can get his subscriber count up a bit we might see more stuff out of the man.
I intend on banging out a couple chapters of Foolers Rush In, maybe get to TSoP and try to write another one-shot themed around thestrals. I've done a lot of good work in the first half of 2018 and it's largely gotten me nowhere towards being relevant. The way I see it that's one more half of a year to make things right before just calling it quits. 2019 promises the return of Classic (Vanilla) World of Warcraft and I look forward to getting back into that, making a ton of friends and Making
So, I've decided that I wanted to include an anime in SotS. The PLAN is to give it an important role (starting in act 4) but after much deliberation on the discord server, I just couldn't decide. So I created a poll of the three worlds we thought would fit best with the nature of the story and fun internet culture. As of now, I have actually watched none of these all the way through, but I will devote myself to doing just that for the winner.
The options are...
JoJo's Bizarre Adventures
Even though the film won't come out until later this week, I figured I'd quickly talk about the songs themselves, and what my thoughts are about them.
1) We Got This Together
I was reading a short bit of literary fiction today, Kamisama, a Japanese story about a man who goes on a walk with a new neighbor of his with old-fashioned sensibilities, who has no name but when asked what people should call him replies "Anata [the Japanese word for 'you,'], but when you say Anata please say it with the kanji [the Chinese characters, 貴方] rather than the hiragana [Japanese script, あなた], because it sounds better to my ears."
Also this character is a bear.
So, the laptop problem isn't Google, its CPU? I think? I noticed my CPU was reaching max when the random shut offs occurred, but it also happened when I was barely using it.
I'm not completely sure of the problem, and my friend hasn't responded to my Skype messages asking about it. Apparently her Skype is messing up, but still, I had another friend contact her differently, and she still hasn't tried to reach me.
