"A Matter of Principals" introduced us to a nice little bit of worldbuilding for Equestria: Arcane Detectors!
This is it! The kind of episode I have waited for! Finally, for the first time ever since "School Daze", we got a proper, 100% Student Six episode again! And it delivered in the best way possible!
Not only is it another Hearth's Warming Eve episode, something Season 7 did not offer to us, we also learn a lot about the lives of Sandbar, Gallus, Yona, Smolder, Ocellus and Silverstream and about the culture and traditions of their homelands!
Season 8 is finally back and it's already off to an excellent start, with another Friendship School episode! A Friendship School episode in which we see Starlight Glimmer losing it and killing Discord..... What? No, I'm not kidding. This actually happened!
Here's a follow-up on Two Years until the Equestrian Exodus: What we should do now and how we can go on from here and A Season and a Half Left?.

Yesterday, knighty wrote a site blog post about changes to FIMFiction.net. He implemented new features on the site in the last few weeks and summed them up in a changelog:

One of those changes to FIMFiction.net is sticking out and heavily discussed in the community right now. You sure heard of it already, but for the sake of completion, I mention it here anyway:

A few days ago, I was rewatching "School Daze" to give the episode some more thoughts, because there is quite a lot to see in it and a lot that invites you to deeply think about it. One sentence in particular stuck out to me:
"Everypony should be prepared to defend our way of life."
I rewatched "Molt Down" today to finally do my afterthoughts on the episode, and I discovered an interesting connection to something we've seen in another episode. If you think back to "Princess Spike" in Season 5, you will (if you weren't busy complaining about another Spike episode) probably remember these:
I can finally write my review for "Molt Down" today! And with this episode, M.A. Larson returned to wing another creature, this time under his super-secret pseudonym "Josh Haber", continuing his neverending mission of bringing anger and despair over this fandom with the power of Change!
[...] as long as no further disasters happens that make writing impossible for me, you can expect the release of the story sometime next week!
