Countess Frollo · 7:22pm Apr 8th, 2017

Hi everyone.
I've got some free time and I just found out that the live-action Beauty and the Beast did well and I had a thought.
I never got to watch the Hunchback of Notre Dame until recently which meant Frollo's really dark and edgy themes were taken as they were implied to be (Psychologically abusing Quasimodo and sexually assaulting Esmeralda).

A Study in Differences · 9:37pm Mar 6th, 2018

Four ponies share similar backstories, in some sense, a what could have happened had this happened, and different reactions. Many only see them in pairs, such as Twilight and Sunset. Maybe, for some, Starlight. But, Moondancer should also be included in this. Yes, there are times when I feel like an analyst, even though I am a story writer, and perhaps I am partially so, I do enjoy studying these sorts of things.

A VERY Simplified Comparison Between Influenza and Coronavirus Death Rates in the US · 4:40pm Mar 25th, 2020

Since it gets brought up a lot these days, I'd find it fascinating to know: how do these two viruses compare? Say, on death rates? What sort of numbers are we talking about here?

First, a few clarifications, and then the numbers themselves. Please note that all this is for casual purposes only: this is not an official analysis!
