So, when some child is being beaten up by an abusive parent, you should NOT help them! When a person is sick and dying of pneumonia, you should not help them! That's right people, Mykan thinks you should NEVER... EVER help anyone. You should leave them alone, and let them suffer! Yeah. That's the way he thinks."
I have never heard such propaganda, nor have I seen such twisted contradiction all for the sake of mockery.
I'll tell you what started all this...
Now THIS is what the pony movie should have been.
If I’d known I was in for this, I’d have just stayed home and watched these episodes today.
0/10 - AWFUL (unsalvageable, never should have been made, wouldn't recommend to anyone)
1/10 - HORRIBLE/BORING (tedious, hurts to watch, a bore, no reason to watch him/her, whatever positive things about him/her are tiny and not enough)
2/10 - VERY BAD (slightly less terrible, maybe there were one or two things you liked kept him/her from being a 1 but still very painful)
...but I got thinking after watching the season seven finale (finally got around to it ). Did the Pony of Shadows get sent to the human realm like the Sirens?
And if he did, will he be the next villain for the HuMane 7?
And then would Sunset have to drag Starswirl's arrogant ass across dimensions to finally defeat it?
I FINALLY got a chance to see "Ghostbusters: Afterlife", and it was pretty good! Not PERFECT, but then nothing not made by me ever could be!
This is how you do passing the torch RIGHT. Nobody got crapped on, and the newbs weren't elevated into these perfect people who could do no wrong. It really felt like a fusion of "Ghostbusters" and "The Monster Squad", which really worked well.
Apparently this is just a live reading report blog now.
I commissioned Skijarama to do a reading of what I believe is one of my strongest stories to date. As always, he knocked it out of the park. He has a clear knack for drama and suspense storytelling. Please give it a listen!
So, thanks to a bunch of my friends requests to learn more about my version of the Pony of Shadows, I am posting this character profile to explain his powers, motives, etc.
So sit back and read about the Dark Demon Pony, Stygian, the Pony of Shadows!

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has lovable characters, interesting settings, and quite a few captivating stories, but there are some aspects of the show that most fans would agree haven’t been fleshed out nearly enough. Aside from the lack of insight into some important characters such as Princess Celestia and, until relatively recently, Spike, there are many aspects of the show’s lore that have been unfortunately neglected. Take, for example, the enigma of spirits in MLP.
Warning: This episode is really, really bad. Oh, and there's also spoilers since I guess the episode hasn't aired yet. Believe me, though, you can read and you won't have much of any worth spoiled for you.

PONY OF SHADOWS
Your pitiful attempt to imprison me has FAILED, Starswirl!
I wouldn't exactly call a thousand years a failure, but whatever.

Welp, finally getting around to do this ramble I’ve been wanting to do for quite a while. I’m sad to see the concept of the Pony of Shadows, Stygian included, didn’t get as much love and attention as I had hoped for after that season seven final.
Either way, I have some rambling to offer about it based on my own thoughts and observations. So, let’s go!

Yesterday I saw someone get plowed into by a semi-truck. Now in this case I mean it was only a partial truck I'm not quite sure what the rest of it was. I'm going to say a vw bug. Anyway I think the guy's soul entered my body and I think he had jock itch and a penchant for curry.
Although coming out of a completely different thread, https://www.fimfiction.net/group/50/the-writers-group/thread/464939/how-would-you-reinvent-an-mlp-villain-for-a-darker-storyline this could arguably be called a vague "evil counterpart" to my earlier "Mane 6 at Full Power" blog.
Welcome back, lovely peeps!
Today, we’re going to continue our deep dive into Princess Twilight Sparkle and her history with villain redemption. (Fair warning: some text is going to be colored. I’m using night mode, so some colors might not be visible in light mode.)
"So what's it like being a hack," and its variations is a question I get asked often enough. Sometimes it's not verbalized but it's the way others just kind of shake their heads when you chime in on writing or some other thing in relation to it. Other times it's just finishing dead last (even when they don't tell you that's where you finished but you know it based upon various factors that include not allowing yourself enough time to edit or some such thing). Of course I think they should
