Okay.

It is now obvious that I’ve bitten off more than I can chew. (Damn ponies making me say that…)

Demand has risen everywhere for PC, RC, Diaries.

There are tons of deadlines to meet, and I am unable to continue working the way I do now. So here’s the plan:

PC will definitely update this weekend. I will attempt weekly updates until the summer arrives. Then I can spam-update all I want.

Diaries is coming out of hiatus. Again, I will attempt weekly updates along with PC.

Also, Diaries is changing format a bit. The assisted-story-all-the time format will be toned down in favor for something more light. Small slice of life strips are planned. It will not reboot. Also, Twilight and Fluttershy will be added to the Diaries roster, along with many other characters.

RC is getting overhauled. Right now, I’m falling behind on the story. So I am abolishing the traditional ask-blog format for something more akin to a personal blog. He would make posts about his life the same way we do sometimes. It would be accompanied with pictures, of course. And questions would be answered in the traditional format.

I was planning on announcing commissions for sale. But with all this going on, I will delay it until the summer.

Aaannndd… that’s about it. Okay.

My mom’s excessive use of hyperboles led me to believe that everyone  who is currently breathing wants to kidnap/kill me and that the world is a dangerous and super shitty place.

Over time, I realized that only some people want to kill me, and the world is kinda shitty.

Thanks, mom, for corrupting my views on life.

DUN DUN DUN. Lookit what I have here~

(I just love how Sunil is all scared and Russell is like “wtf?”.)

Oh good god, he’s doing Littlest Pet Shop now. o:

I’m laughing because I’m not a super serious shipper and that post is garnering loads of reblogs and arguments about different ships and I’m just sitting here going:

“I literally grabbed a random background colt and made his made-up crack relationship with an canon character a main story issue in a comic series. I don’t know what I’m doing. What am I doing?”

Picking and judging a ship by cuteness factor and weird factor is how I choose to back one. Don’t listen to me. I’m insane. 

Someone blow an air-horn into my ear so I don’t become a quack who never updates his blogs.

The Mane 6 as some large mixed entity of love and platonic friendship. They all have feelings for each other (some more than others), but it all averages out to a universal amnesty and sensation of wholeness and completeness.

Like a rat king, except not as gross and deathly. Like an orgy, but without the sex.

However, that doesn’t rule sex out of the equation.

Bottom line: The Mane 6 are one adorable unit of magical friendships with benefits.

I naturally ship TwiDash, TwiPie, and RariDash.

Following euphoriapony has slowly begun to convert me to RariPie.

Following ponett and being friends with Sam has slowly begun to convert me FlutterDash.

RariJack is also becoming a thing for me. And PinkieDash.

Fuck it, I’ll just ship them all with each other. @_@

Except AppleDash. Kinda. Maybe.

Running Babblr. Here’s the scoop.

  • It slows down the dashboard a notch. If you have a slow connection, you might notice it more.
  • The browser scroll-bar vanishes. This may be a launch bug.
  • It asks for read and write permissions of your account because it wants to gather your follower lists. 
  • It is too early to tell if it’s malicious. From what we, it seems legit. It’s simply another browser extension for Tumblr (like Missing E or Tumblr Savior).
  • Posts that say that this is virus are probably just mass hysteria over a new thing. People tend to get super paranoid and start spreading their fears all over.
  • If you do feel a bit unsafe, you can change your email and/or password. But don’t start spreading claims that are unverified.
