A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

I stopped caring for page/post count since loss of original thread but 2001 should ber celebrated with Space Odyssey shotout
Like this fanart.
I know, right? It's one of those terrible 90s songs that's actually kind of good if you're willing to look past the cheese. A lot like ponies, really. I occasionally listen to it when I feel the need to cheer on my live.

Bleh, I hate it when people don't get the care they need. When I started to have trouble with autism, depression, and general self-loathing, I almost immediately got a small army of therapists, counsellors and psychiatrists at my disposal plus a liveable financial allowance.
It didn't help me get out of this hole I'm in yet, but at least I'm still living a relatively comfortable life (by all accounts, I'd be one of those crazy homeless people if it wasn't for all the help), and I have reason to believe it will be better eventually.
But really, pills are usually not the main thing you should be working in. It's very much a support thing, a little extra help while trying to deal with your problems. Friends and family are much more important, as is finding a hobby to spend your time and express yourself a little.

I've tried, but I'm very socially awkward these days and don't really have any friends. six years of this has killed a lot of my enthusiasm, and there's a lot of stuff I can't do because of visual limitations.
I've not regressed into suicidal urges in some time, so I guess there's that. And I've tried writing, but I'm so sure I'm going to fail it's self-defeating.
sorry guys, I try not to complain so much.
@Mio: I'd guess we experienced a pickup when the season started, so I imagine it'll be sooner than that.
Birthright: an original web novel about Dragons, the Burdens of Leadership, and Mangoes.@Dark: Eh, it's fine. I bring my shit into this thread way too often as well.
So, you're a hobbyist writer, but can't get anything actually done because you're afraid to fail, eh? That sounds a lot like my problem, really. Maybe you'd be interested in an arrangement of sorts? Maybe we could encourage each other somehow.
Like, we vow to write at least so many words per week, and let each other read it for constructive criticism. Or something.

Have you two ever been to the Pony fanfic thread?
It's been a while since I've written so I don't pay as much attention to it these days. But in my experience, having a support group really does help. And if y0ou don't want to take my word for it, I got the advice from my creative writing professor in college to begin with, and she is a Perfessional
, so her word is good for it.
Which gives me a reason to post a link to this awesomely inspiring video by Extra Credits

Came in the wave of toy and Eq G 2 announcements not long ago.
That's advice that a lot of people have a hard time following.

@CDRW: We got the somewhat vague assertion that "MLP will continue for 5 more years". Whether that means the show is getting 5 more seasons, or that the gen is just designated to go that long, we don't know.

Well, apparently Eat is closed on Sundays. We went to another restaurant instead.
Dark- sorry about the emotional issues. If there's anything I can do, let me know.
