Doubtless someone's already posted this, but it is just too cute

more cuteness

Journalism is just a gun. It's only got one bullet in it, but if you aim right, that's all you need.

Also Cheerilee apparently lives in her schoolhouse.

Sorry, fellas. She's married. To education.

You can't expect me to be fine.

I don't expect you to care.

Element of Laughter has been activated.

Warning, superweapon detected.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

Hey, what's the place to stream the upcoming new episodes as they air?

That would be running a punchline into the ground.

#299756 Japanese Teeth Thu, 8th Nov '12 8:46:40 PM from Meinong's jungle

@Meta: EQD usually lists like half a dozen stream sites.

@Ace: You have any idea how Derpy gets unlocked?

pretty cool

I've been out of touch for a while, so could someone remind me if we've gotten the new season yet?

@Dren: First episode is this weekend.

Don't make me fire Pinky's party cannon.

#299760 Drenius Thu, 8th Nov '12 8:53:48 PM from Northern Virginia

Saturday 10-11? Hm I just might be able to watch it then, good to know. Thanks guys!

And with that, this old man is hitting the hay, my eyes are starting to cloud.

@JT: Derpy's an Easter Egg, not a mane roster pony. She'll pop up like Solid Snake in her cardboard box, and if you find her and tap on the box, she'll give you a few bits.

Temptations

@Ace's pic: Tempting fate here, but would the plot really be a sexual turn on in the pony world?

Who knows, might work for Spike.

Anyway, addicting as that game is, I should really give it a rest and go to bed now. Goodnight everybody.

I'm feeling unusually sleepy myself. Bye

Good night all.

This game is actually more fun than I thought it would be. I must be missing something with the Ball game though, because I just cannot do well at it.
Gameloft name should be Swasfews if whoever wants to add.

yup

and hurry up with a version people can play on their PC

Build a fool proof system, and the world will create a better fool. My random thoughts

Crap, I'mma need to wake up early then...though I do normally wake up at like 8 something.

Heh. Lyra without certain popular fanons.

Fanfiction I hate.

#299774 Kyler Thatch Thu, 8th Nov '12 11:12:23 PM from the event horizon

For some reason, one of the BGM's of Hidamari Sketch comes to mind.

I see she's not a one-instrument pony. I wonder if she's also a composer?

You can't expect me to be fine.

I don't expect you to care.

Did anybody else find this

analysis of the similarities between Equestria and Plato's Republic quite entertaining?

I am not sure that the similarity is as close as the article makes it: Plato's Republic was, I think, quite a lot more manipulative and, well, orderly than Equestria seems to be. Still, the analogy is interesting.

By the way, on the topic of religion and MLP: I think that later Neoplatonism — which postulated a transcendent, absolute, impersonal "Good" (or "Harmony", if you prefer), and a hierarchy of more and more physical entities that mediated between the Good and the material universe — fits quite well with what we know of the MLP universe. Especially since the Sun, or solar deities in general, had an especially important role for many of these philosopher/theologians as an intermediary between the abstract the spiritual universe and the material one — for example, in the awesomely named Oration Upon The Sovereign Sun

Julian "the Apostate" says that

My own belief is, if philosophers be entitled to any credit, that the Sun is the common parent of all men, to use a comprehensive term. It is a true proverb, "Man begets man, and so does the Sun:" but souls that luminary showers down upon earth, both out of himself, and out of the other gods: which souls show to what end they were propagated by the kind of life that they pursue.

and that

the sovereign Sun proceeded from the One God, ——One out of the one Intelligible world; he is stationed in the middle of the Intelligible Powers, according to the strictest sense of "middle position;" bringing the last with the first into a union both harmonious and loving, and which fastens together the things that were divided: containing within himself the means of perfecting, of cementing together, of generative life, and of the uniform existence, and to the world of Sense, the author of all kinds of good; not merely adorning and cheering it with the radiance wherewith he himself illumines the same, but also by making subordinate to himself the existence of the Solar Angels; and containing within himself the unbegotten Cause of things begotten; and moreover, prior to this, the unfading, unchanging source of things eternal.
