You can't just say that without showing us your bed as well. Also how old is he?

Mom changed the sheets so now it looks like this. -__-

I’m seriously still surprised that I’ve managed to keep Post Crusade running for almost 2 years.

It’s a miracle, that’s what it is.

#my post got hijacked #and though I really shouldn't care #I do
I heard it explained this way once: Good deeds, while good, cannot compensate for bad deeds that are still a problem. The only way to account for something bad that is happening is to stop it, not to try and drown it out with good deeds. This is because suffering and happiness are not drawn from the same pool, and so long as you're generating a lot of suffering, you won't be able to out-happy the suffering.

And on an unrelated and less dramatic topic, re: you wanting to get into computer science: Computing is a big field with a lot of career options, most of which are in huge demand these days. Had you wanted to be a website/software developer? A more low-level computer programmer? Something more hardware-related, perhaps? Or maybe you wanted something in IT or systems management? As a junior developer myself, I could provide some advice if you want it.

Website development and systems management are some things I want to get into.

ponett:

i feel really really sorry for that 11-year-old boy who tried to kill himself because he kept getting bullied for liking mlp, both because he’s being bullied over a cartoon to the point where he nearly took his life and because bronies are clearly trying to piggyback off of his…

Wow that’s…

Awfully cynical.

I mean, yeah. A ton of bronies are batshit insane.

But there have been multiple fundraisers and charities in the past that have run under the brony name.

It’s not exactly a new thing for them.

Has it really reached a point where anything attempting to be good is just damage control or some attempt to push an agenda?

Really?

Oh, goodness. How bad is your right wrist now? I guess it's not really anything debilitating, given all you've drawn for us (unless you're left-handed), but I'm still curious as to how that injury has affected you.

It’s not as bad as it sounds. I can still move it around freely as I please. It’s just that there’s this strange numb area where I don’t feel anything. The hand doesn’t get sore, either, so I can draw/type/write for a really long time and not have a need to take a break.

Still, I can imagine that I won’t be able to feel any CPS coming in if it were to. 

TL;DR I dare you to pinch me there.

M: Random fact about me. [x5 COMBO]

  1. I once wrote an extremely corny romance short story in 3rd grade and I was invited to attend a young author’s conference because of it.
  2. I’ve had a painting of mine hung in a museum for a week in 4th grade. But I wasn’t able to attend the ceremony for the gallery opening. :c
  3. I once fell off a slide and broken both my arms with the right arm getting the most damage. As a result, I have nerve damage in my right wrist.
  4. I can’t roll R’s.
  5. I sometimes just lie in bed and imagine all my stories playing out like movies being shown in a film festival with all the main characters sitting in the audience wondering how the hell did the creators film this?

I need to coin a new word for people who are able to immediately to spot even the slightest [-phobia] or [-ism] joke or problem in everything.

Seriously! It takes me 3 reads or views to actually see the problem they’re talking about! How can people always be actively looking for the tiniest hints of (what is in their opinion) social injustice and spot it at the first second?

Are they enlightened or something? Or bullshitting their way through everything to make them seem enlightened?

Just what exactly distinguishes a man from a woman (short of the person outright stating his/her gender) on Tumblr? Is it chattiness? Because you, Mr. Cactus, are not all that talkative.

I’m not sure. Tumblr can be very sensitive when it comes to gender identity, so I’m not gonna get all “logical” about it.

However…

I personally use a combination of judging their art style and blog style, mod-blog stalking to see their text-post writing style, interests, opinions, etc, and pure guessing.

It has worked for me… 40% of the time. And it’s a weird gender-biased habit of mine. I CAN’T HELP IT, I’M SORRY.

Imagine everyone who has ever been your icon being locked in a room together for an extended period. 

I have a feeling that a giant flesh balloon, a woman with fetuses on her head, and a literal fetalpile would get along REALLY well.

Of course for me that would just be a regular Venusaur and a Venusaur wearing Majora’s Mask.

Speaking of ages, how did you come to a conclusion on the ages of the CMC and friends in Post Crusade? I find it interesting that you wrote them as being around 12 and 13 then, since most people I talk to seem to think they're 11-12 in the present day (that is, in the show, thus 3 years before PC).

A while ago, an early script from “Applebuck Season” described Apple Bloom as being 7. So I kinda based the CMC’s ages on that.

From there, I started calculating time in Season 1.

Apple harvest season is usually in late summer and early fall, around September.

I went with the idea that Season 1 lasted for about a year between Summer 2010 and Spring 2011. Since AB’s set birthday in PC is in October, that means she’s 8 by the time Season 2 starts.

When S2 ends (with it being Summer 2012), she’ll be 9. And this is where PC begins. By the end of 2012, she’s 10.

By the end of 2015 (3 years later), she’s 13. And since it’s March 2016 in PC right now, she’s still 13.

(Here’s a rough rundown I made a while ago.)

I hate myself.

Most of the time, I’m fine with that. Loads of people hate me, too. And I have good friends to help me stay stable.

But sometimes, I can’t help it but to just hate myself to the core. I question what I do. What I think. What I say. I yell at myself. I hound other people for answers. Am I good, or bad? Am I a good example, or social trash? Am I worth it?

Then it all blows over. And I patiently wait for the next month so I can hate myself even more again. And again. And again.

To be honest, Mr. Cactus... the dark themes in PC and RC (and the not so dark, though slightly more grim and serious world of PvD) do actually make me worry a little bit about you. What if it's one of those cases where the artist's work reflects his inner turmoils? For your sake, I hope the lives of you and your friends are better than those of your Five Angry Horses.

Unfortunately, you are correct. A lot of the content in PC is loosely based off of my own experiences with life and other people. Not completely, though, to prevent it from becoming my vent blog.

But really, it’s only PC.

RC requires some research and personal moral insight to write for. It’s my “what if” story.

Diaries is my dream world. A near-perfect utopia, but with something more sinister in play.
