It appears RealityCheck is at it once again in his quest to embarrass himself by getting science facts wrong; which he has now extended to getting science history wrong. From Chapter 47...

I really liked Slice of Life, but I feel there is something vile and utterly unwholesome about how the fandom has reacted to Lyra and Bon Bon being 'just friends'. Specifically, they way they have rolled over and taken it.

I remember reading a scifi story about aliens invading the earth, and other aliens helping the planet (but mostly America) defend themselves, only to be brought up short when the hero says, "Thank God the good aliens helped debunk all those evil liberal global warming lies!" In hindsight, since the 'good aliens' turned out to be not so good in the end, this might have been ironic - but given the author's public statements elsewhere,

I'm a long time fan of Digibrony and Tomas Oliver (amongst others) and have enjoyed their analyses of episodes and theme for Friendship is Magic. Lately they've both been taking a rather pessimistic tone for season 4, culminating in Tommy's Season 4 Thus Far video.

So I was listening to the Cutie Art Crusaders (no, I hadn't heard of them until yesterday either) interview Sibsy (yay) and then they went on to talk about their feelings about Season 3 and how it's the best season ever! <sigh> You know, if there's one thing I don't like (not hate mind you, just don't like) it's how entirely uncritical Bronies are about the product they fawn over. I like the show too, but I'm also here for the fan created content, which is in many ways better than the

Let's see. New story up. In the first few hours it earned itself 9 thumbs down, no thumbs up, and gained 61 views, though only 42 could be bothered to read through to the second chapter. So reading less than 6k words is hard? Wow. Big round of one handed clapping for persistence there guys. And an interesting contrast with my local writing group, who don't know about brony or furry but actually liked the first chapter. And then there's this delightful sentiment:

We're not allowed to post songs here as stories, and Trixie's Variety Show apparently had no interest, but we can blog about whatever the fetlocks we like. So there.
