My first fanfic!!!! The entire thing has its roots in an incomplete story I wrote of my friends and I surviving an apocalyptic environment in our neighborhood. Of course, I had to change all characters from people to ponies, add characters, edit massively since the draft was made 5 years ago when i was in 7th grade, and *sigh*...finish it.

In 1958, Physicist William Higinbotham created the world’s very first video game, a simple tennis game that was fairly similar to Pong in 1970. In the 60 years since then, however, video games have gone from an odd little programming exercise to one of the biggest money making franchises of all time, with every genre you could dream of available, ranging from shooters and puzzle games, to more niche genres like visual novels and life sims. However, as gamers, we all have our own opinions

No, I do not want Nazis in this fandom.

I don't want stories about cutesy Nazi OCs, who exist to give "ironic" cover to actual Nazis and racists, and to normalize Nazi presence in MLP fandom.

I don't especially want people saying they're doing this in defense of free speech. They are, at best, fools who aid and abet the far-right that wants to destroy freedom of speech; at worst, they're Nazis doing it on purpose.

This was originally going to be an isolated response to Deep's comment in my last blog, but it just kept getting longer and longer, and I eventually decided to make it a separate blog post. Because plenty of people have the same idea he does. "Defy their opinions and stick around! We love you!" And it's true, you do love me. I love you too. So that's why it's best to explain it further. Deep, I'm sorry if it seems like I'm singling you out. Think of it like you're the spokesperson for a lot of

Honestly, becoming a brony not only saved my life, but it opened up a whole new world to me. A world of imagination and stories. A world of colors and art and music. And through my writing, I've come to realize that I'm attacking my own demons, one at a time. Trixie Interviews got me over the death of my parents. Gabriela at least addressed some of my initial concerns about life, love, and the world at large. Twinkle Shine showed me how to deal with my past, by simply accepting it for what it

Yo, to those of you who listen already or are interested, my co-host and I have decided to have a regular ten minute 'brony slot' on our Goon Monkeys podcast Very first one's just aired, in which I talk about the 2017 movie, the Christmas pony album and get emotional about a certain S5 episode (three guesses which one xD )

Slice of Life was a celebration of the overwhelming creativity of this fandom. Of the passion and creativity that drives us as a community. How we can take a character who exists for a second on screen and weave numerous personalities and lives for them, all based around a frozen moment in time.

As I type this, there are two stories about the Changeling from the wedding scene in the feature bar.

The circle is complete, and the cycle begins anew.

And that is why I love this fandom.

[Note: This is the first episode post-reboot! Read this blog for further details.]

Hello, I'm The Cynical Brony, and I review it so you don't have to! After Cupcakes and Rainbow Factory, I want to review a good fan-made horror story. So, The Twilight Sparkle Zone. Before I start the actual review, since this story is a crossover, I have to give my opinions on the source material. As most of you probably guessed, this story is a crossover with the famous TV show, "The Twilight Zone", a show I really like. The original 60's version, at least. The episodes would go

Hello, I'm The Cynical Brony, and I review it so you don't have to! Dash is my favorite character in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Yes, I've always had a personal connection with Dash. The reason I bring this up? Recently, I've seen a lot of Dash haters. And I mean a lot. So, I want to bring my counter arguments to the table. Okay, and two other reasons: 1. She's going to die a horrible death in Cupcakes, my next review, so I want to pay tribute before my view of the show and her
