Ghost Mike


Hardcore animation enthusiast chilling away in this dimension and unbothered by his non-corporeal form. Also likes pastel cartoon ponies. They do that to people. And ghosts.

Ghost Mike's Ponyfic Review Monday Musings #96 · 6:00pm January 15th

Last week was the “serious” side of looking back at 2023 for Ghost Mike’s Ponyfic Review Monday MusingsTM in review, focusing largely on quantifiable stats calculated in the Archive Spreadsheet. Now it’s time for the fun, goofy side of that – quirky takeaways that don’t mean much except being something to chuckle at.

Got some opening blurbs planned for the next while. Let’s lead off with a big one: 2023 for Monday Musings in review! A more sensible soul would probably make a separate blog for this, but I can’t always be sensible, can I? :rainbowwild: And sure, if there are souls reading this who can’t stand statistical quirks, well, there’s always scrolling until the first cover art to bypass the blurb. Which some may do already, come to think. :unsuresweetie:

It’s 2024, according to the calendar. Some other folks will have a much better opener to the year in their first blogs, something I typically struggle with, but given today is New Year’s Day, I suppose I should say something too, no?

Christmas is almost upon us! Though the holidays are a time that should be celebrated by all, of course. Personally, not being the most social ghost, the family gatherings and togetherness can be a bit much, and are something I prefer in limited quantities. But I do fully believe in taking time off from regular things and doing low-stress relaxation things not on a schedule. Which, after the 23rd, will be through to 2024. As it should be!

Fifteen weeks strikes me as a reasonable break between Author Spotlights. And with the end of the year upon us, let’s look at an author whose work nearly always makes me laugh and/or smile. Not that this guy needs the promotion, with nearly 2,800 followers to his name (it’d be even more were it not for that immortal enemy Real Life – more on that later), but round here, what the ghost says goes. Thus, I give you Aragon.

I should have touched on it last week, but Make Your Mark officially ended on November 23rd*. I could have addressed this with my usual “the show ended on exactly the whimper we all expected” sentiment. But instead, I figured, why not celebrate it, for what it’s worth? And after my love of animation, I am a gamer. So, I took the opposite direction, and played some MLP. Scratch that, it wasn’t played, it was streamed.

Good Thanksgiving, I hope, my American comrades? All full from the turkey and familial reminiscing? Nothing like that here, but I did have the first organised Christmas dinners/parties that tend to start up around now. This one being at work, to facilitate easier flights home for those coming in for it. First time on a boat on a canal, of all things. Fun to see the locks opening and the water level changing when you’re on the thing!

Well, my opening blurb topic got postponed last minute, leaving me high and dry. Bugger. Eh… I guess Ponyville Ciderfest's Charity Auction (which broke the prior Bronycon record and raised over $100K) including anonymously donated scripts (with notes) for nearly the whole series counts? This stuff's been in the wild for four years, but if the pony archive storing it gets more eyeballs on it, now it's

Fluttershy: "Oh, um, today is World Kindness Day. Ghost Mike would give you all a hug of appreciation, but his kind has difficulty doing that with the living. So he asked me to help. Which I was only too happy to, Kindness being my Element and all.
