Actual opinion: the OoT remake makes me feel a deep sense of primal, spiteful rage that only very specific people like myself can harbour. The combat looks fantastic though

I don't think Deltarune fan media explores the fact that Kris has been able to Save and Load for a good while, before we came into the picture. I think ppl just forget (since it is shown Once in Chapter 1) but it has such potential

In all fairness I think Toby kinda forgot too (that one newsletter mentioning save points in the light world) but I feel like we might see more abt it eventually anywho. Who knows. It's still such good fan fuel

Discord redesigning their mobile ui to where the annoying ass "gift" button is just slightly farther to the left making me misclick it constantly with the way I operate the app

Okay time for G6 thoughts. After digesting everything for a little here, I remain... cautiously optimistic. The key art is fantastic, the designs are really nice, and the VAs sound like they really care. I worry about the format and writing, however.

We'll see in the new year if it's worth it to be hyped about it. For now I remain cautiously optimistic, and hold that the writers can perform well with less pressure. I just don't want a repeat of TYT, is all. Please let Sunset Shimmer be a secondary character. I will but all your merch. please. pl

9 minutes is a very narrow timeframe, yes. You can do a lot in 9 minutes, but I think the issue in disappointment I see is that Hasbro was hyping it up to be this big huge thing when it's just another webisode series. I'm chill with that. My main worry though is the writing...

They have the same team who did all of G5 back again for the new series. I really hated G5's writing, but I couldn't tell whether it was bad because of the writers or because of the corporate meddling. No Netflix going forwards is a huge boon, though. I don't hold zero faith, but I feel... cautious.

Rarity and AJ taking a backseat I genuinely don't mind that much. For the nine-minute format, having a smaller cast of MCs is a good thing! They'll be there as supporting cast all the same, which if I'm reading things correctly, seems to be part of the show's main pitch?

I'd be down for a Monster/Pony-of-the-Day series, somewhat akin to FiM S1. I think that'd be fun and fit the 9-minute format well. They call it an "emotions-first" series, though, so I really have no clue what they'll actually be doing. As for my worries though...

Starting with the good, there's a reason I tried to replicate the artstyle. It seems like they got the guy who did the art for Spyro Reignited, which is a really good pick for a series said to lean more into fantasy (no smartphones thank god!!). Excited to see the way the actual show looks!

Change in VAs is perfectly good. I was hoping for Rebecca Shoichet to voice Twilight, as I'm highly biased, but this new cast seems perfectly good. Twilight's voice is gonna take some getting used to, though. They seem to click with each other and care for the series which is a good sign.

mmm leaks coming out, if you care at all then just be careful around ponyspace. Not sure if they're real or not. I'll talk about my thoughts in full when the panel happens.

G6 is coming, according to SDCC and other odd sources. I have no expectations for this I really *really* just hope it's good

As I tend to be with most of my projects lately, my confidence in this waxes and wanes; however, every time I see more discourse surrounding trans ralsei the more my spite to make this grows. She will be real.

ty for supporting the transfem ralsei post a lot. the rot is bad. I am considering making a visual novel about it now. more to come on that eventually, ideally(???) thank you

A new ‘My Little Pony’ animated series is reportedly set to premiere in 2027. The news comes as ‘Friendship Is Magic’ creator Lauren Faust is set to lead a panel celebrating the franchise’s legacy and teasing “what’s ahead in Equestria.” (Source: @equestriadaily.bsky.social)

I hope Faust and her team can make something good. As long as they only have to deal with Hasbro's corporate image and not Netflix's terrible time crunches, I'm holding out some hope.

btw (directed at Faust leading) if they make Over a Barrel 2 you'll see me on national television about to invent a new kind of dying wrong

I wasn't able to watch much of G5. I gave it several shots as honestly as I could. I love the character designs. I want to like the show, but it's so riddled with corporate meddling on all fronts that it wasn't ever given a chance. It's just bad.

seeing people upset that Jax is "too subtle" makes me very very upset because this is the first piece of media at this scale of popularity to utilize that subtlety to its advantage. Especially when words of being able to "sell to russia" or whatever are shoved in Glitch and Gooseworx's mouth.

I just want people to take in part both their emotions towards a piece of media as well as understanding what it is saying. If you think that it should've been more explicit, then sure. Just don't say Gooseworx deserves to be harrassed because she wasn't explicit enough when it's not the point.

and look, I get it. I fucking get it. I want trans women to be happy in media too. This is not a show with a happy ending; it's made out of silver linings, like real life, like *losing someone* in real life. At the absolute least, irl Jax gets to discover herself at her own pace.

I want less subtlety too, trust me. holy fuck I just want more good rep. but this is the first piece of media I've seen to make honest use of that subtlety and is one of the best pieces of transgender rep in any piece of media yet, all because it explores a side people generally aren't willing to.

The fact it isn't explicit is the point. The secret of being transgender is one of the most gut-wrenching things to hold. This feeling pushes people to do horrible, horrible things. Jax cannot say it out loud because she is *dead* before she can. It is only too late if you are dead.

Love this guy. the floridian

These guys are called FLORADINN. You can think of them like the “Rudinn” of Chapter 5. Their favorite thing is FLOWERS. They usually don’t get what’s going on, but they are chill and don’t care. I like these guys.

Okay FINNEEEEE give me a bit

transfem ralsei got a sudden wave of attention again. I should absolutely draw her more I am exceedingly normal about that goat

I love character writing because I find PEOPLE fascinating. How circumstances can lead people to walk different paths. How the same event can have different reactions. What can change one's views, beliefs, or nature. I wanna capture that in my work. Anyway I designed this character with a big ass,

I don't enjoy being cynical about Minecraft. It literally just makes me mad. I want to stop thinking about this game's more recent updates. They added the fucking McDonald's biome.
