Well 1: That song was awesome.
2. I like how the song doesn't even describe what happens inside the factory, just that bad shit seems to go down there
is the fic especially graphic?

It's because they don't have any OBVIOUS (key word) advantages over the other two races apart from their brute force.
Yeah, its sad that the cultures of RP Gs and Comic Books have gotten everyone into a sort of minmaxing mindset where all they care about are "the advantages" rather than what they would actually like to be.
I think more people should take Fluttershy as an example—there's no obvious advantage in being a tree, but she'd still like to be one!
Only ponyfication of Creepy Pasta and other crossovers.
I wish to see Pony SCP Foundation.

They are like the others. Strange, hideous, resisting, fighting. Only these were not like the others. They did not die.

So... this edutainment phone app came out today, in which Twilight Sparkle teaches kids how to read and the origin of Equestria. Someone over on the Equestria Daily had this to say on what's revealed.
Well, the broad strokes. Twilight didn't really dig very deep for her history report. I'd give her a C+ at best.
Seems Unicorns, Pegasi and Earth Ponies didn't get along back in the day, and the land was frozen in a blizzard. They all migrated to the same place to try and get away from the snow, but it didn't thaw out until they got over their disharmony. Then the Unicorns built Canterlot and invited the other groups to a party, thus establishing the first Grand Galloping Gala.
Anyone else want to download this app and see for themselves what its like? Apparently it has Luna! And Derpy & Carrot Top are standing next to each other in the "Find the Difference" portion of the video. Brony nod?

I will kill myself before I download another edutainment game. It's the only sort of viedogame my father ever allowed me to play until I left home for college!
An action is not virtuous merely because it is unpleasant to do.

I'm almost interested, but I'm willing to bet any information introduced in a mobile app is going to get jossed by the show proper.

Twilight sounds like she's yelling though the whole thing XD
Also, I don't think the Pinkie thing has to be here http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/HighOctaneNightmareFuel/WesternAnimation
Especially this line: * The fact that the show is targeted primarily to pre-teen girls (5 to 12) makes this more confusing. Although considering the large teen/adult male fanbase this show has, it could be an acknowledgement to them.
For two reasons—1) the episode was written and animated before the whole "brony" thing, and 2) Girls can handle creepy as well. I get a bit annoyed when bronies act like everything is for them. But I'm a former bright-eyed little girl, so maybe I'm just now a bitter old bitch.

Tell me this wouldn't be the perfect theme for Nightmare Moon.

Just read Rainbow Factory.
...
Liked it a whole lot better than cupcakes that's for sure
Rainbow Dash actually wasn't bad as a villain. I just wish I could see a grimdark fic end happily for once

Grimdark isn't edgy enough if it has a happy ending. Here's a grimdark story for everyone now: ONCE UPON A TIME the ponies hated each other for some reason. Then they all died. The end.
I deleted the example because nobody said I shouldn't.

Word Of God says Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo are not related. but I have wondered about some kind of connection, maybe the lack of parents means Scoot's some sort of exchange student and Rainbow's her host?

It's like people think there's absolutely no audience for happy ending-darkfics.
I love gore, I love despair. but I also like seeing things end on a hopeful note. Is it so wrong to want to see these elements merged?

Okay, I'll add a sequel.
The ponies died but they were revived somehow.
