Stories, articles, and videos exist on YouTube, FimFiction, Facebook, and so on at this very moment that depict the meaning of this very title. Example, forgetting a child in a locked car on a sweltering hot day. Don't do that. The kid is likely to die after a mere fifteen minutes. Tragedies in fictional stories and in actual human history can be extremely harsh but very real lessons. Not taking said lessons to heart can mean serious repercussions down the line.

So, my mom was just talking about planning for college and stuff, and at one point, bullying came up. Now, I've experienced very little, if any, bullying myself, but my sister definitely has.

So here's my mom's advice:

For basic name calling, minor things, ignore them.

Medium level things such as insults, sass them back.

Full-out fighting- defend yourself at all costs.

If you search for a ship, and the first results are the 'Crackshipping and You' series, the ship is either non-existent or not valid.

Alright, everyone, the moment you've (hopefully) been waiting for is almost here. Lyric's one-shot for Just What I'm Dying For... is ninety-five percent done. What I mean by that is that I am now very happy with the core story, so now I would like to go back and clean it up where it needs. I've also had some wonderful people pre-read and offer their suggestions which I will see if I can incorporate into the story. (And don't worry, you'll get credit at the beginning of the chapter.)

I make this as a test of people's morality...

Had a recent run in with a hater who told me and a follower of mine this...

Unlike him I actually have a job. And what exactly am I being ungrateful about? He hasn't done anything to WARRANT gratefulness

He was also very disrespectful when my follower told him how his grandfather passed away and he was having a hard time moving on from it

"And then He!"

"But she!"

"MOMMY! SHE DID-"

The bustle of voices coming from the other side of my bedroom door was almost deafening. I groaned, as I pulled the pillow up over my head trying to get a bit of shut eye, or at least rid myself of the headache, after my long day in town.

"MOMMY! Star threw mud all over me!" Zap wined.

I'm very sorry I've neglected to begin the lessons as I'd planned before. However, my excuse is completely relevant, as I've been busy with more life stuffs. Allow me the next week to get around to it, as it will be quite the lesson to start out with. Thanks for the patience!

Hello readers, this is Crysis Commander. As some of you may know, I returned from a bit of an unplanned hiatus. Why I was gone is not important, but what is important is why I’m here once again. Bronies, the community and its members have helped me tremendously in the past several years, and now it’s my turn to give back in a way that might help others.

Clock... Is... TICKING!

This is now and always has been one of my favorites. Every time I watch Twilight's slow descent into madness it's just as great as the first time. From the casual beginning to the chaotic end, I really can't think of anything to complain about. Let's break it down.

Today marks the end of a very extended story. Where Loyalties Lie: Ghosts of the Past has reached its conclusion. Along the way, I’ve learned a great deal about writing, and I wanted to record and share some of that, both for my own reflection, and because maybe some of you can benefit.

Disclaimer: I have no professional education in meteorology, just a weather nerd. I spend hours of my free time per day (wish I wasn’t joking) reading about weather and meteorology.

You know what annoys me as a weather nerd?

"Percent humidity" is a lousy way of measuring humidity.

Allow me to explain.

Why is humidity uncomfortable?

AKA the one where Twilight goes bat-shit crazy:

Fun fact: This is the first episode of MLP:FiM that I saw and is still one of my favourites in the entire series (and also the one that made me think "this pony's my favourite").

I already made one. But I plan on making another one.

But this time... she is big. Really big.

And, of course, a poor little human has to deal with the giant crazy horse.

I put together another reading of one of my stories. Swimming Lessons chapter 1. It’ll be out tomorrow, Saturday, 9 AM Eastern. Hope you guys enjoy it.

For those that don’t know, my channel is here. I’ll be posting another blog tomorrow with a link to the specific video.
