A response to Digibrony's Thoroughly Analyzing The Return of Harmony/Free Will

In his video, Digibrony separates the universe of Equestria in two groups, best represented on the alignment chart as Lawful Good and Chaotic Evil. He states that in Equestria, upholding harmony is morally good, and working against harmony, even against society at large is inherently evil.

Hey guys, guess what? My computer isn't quite dead yet. Turns out it was completely fixable (and affordable to do so).
Now that that's working, I have finally gotten my chance to play Rome 2.
So. Awesome. /)*3*(\
Not as good as the first Rome, in my opinion, but certainly better than Shogun 2. Then again, I just didn't like Shogun 2.

I'd hate to say it gentlemen, but I think my computer died earlier today. I'm going to take it to the shop if I can't get it working again tomorrow, but until then, well...
All my files were on that computer, incomplete chapters, all of my music, games, etc.
Which sucks, because if it can't get fixed I really don't have the money to get a new one. Just getting it looked at is pushing it, budget-wise.

For me, I think, the worst part of Chatoyance's stories is that the ponies are constantly lauded as a moral authority, despite not really having free will.

I am working on a pretty big musical project right now, six variations on a theme for varying ensembles. As you can probably guess, this is going to be pony related, each variation embodying a different pony. Twilight gets a fugue (pedal piano, because I hate organs), RD a march (probably with the same instrumentation as one of Beethoven's, because scoring for modern brass bands sucks [coronets, really?]), Rarity a minuet (string quartet, possible harpsichord added), Fluttershy gets an adagio

I realize it's been a while, but it's ok, I have several chapter in the works, one actually complete.
To go down the list:
Part of a chapter of Memoirs, and
One complete and two unfinished chapters of ASIF.
I am trying to catch Fluttershy up to Bartholomew before I post any more chapters of his, so give me a bit, ok?
I've had writers block for her for several months now, and I only got anything done less then a month ago.
So yeah, just wanted to let everyone know about that.

Well, it's Autumn again, and that means one thing: I flip out every other day. Why?
This place has a cockroach infestation, and I am deathly afraid of them.
I have a healthy fear of spiders, snakes, scorpions, etc. You'd have to be an idiot not to. When I see them, I act cautiously, and of it's something easily killed, I do so.
But not with cockroaches. I can't get within a few feet of a still-living roach without freaking out. I don't know why, I just can't deal with roaches. At all.

Oh my God, Sunset Shimmer is a pun on Twilight Sparkle.
How did I not see this before?

So yeah, over the last week I have:
Read Machine and Might
Listened to the Entirety of Bolero and
Watched Monster's University

So, Bolero first, and an explanation as to why I haven't listened to it until now.
Bolero is Maurice Ravel's best known work. I didn't listen to it for the longest time because two minutes in, I thought it horribly tedious.
So I forced myself to listen to it in it's entirety driving to my uncles because I hate myself and want to die.
Two words:

So, my uncle has a birthday coming up, so I went to visit him.
Nice little family gathering.
So, we were discussing what cake to get him, the local bakery has these German Chocolate cakes (no relaxation to Germany), and the icing has coconuts in it. (Keep in mind, I hate the taste of coconuts.)
