More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
I have a theory that Equestria Girls was a genuine attempt to alienate bronies so MLP doesn't get too associated with furry porn. Hasbro maybe knew that bronies wouldn't want their magical pony fantasy land (an escape) to turn into high school (the 4-year sorting-hat that taught them that they are losers and will never have friends in real life while all the cool kids abused substances and sexually reproduced).

Also like the original show drew bronies because it was positive and inclusive but I'm guessing Equestria Girls has a "whitewashed" thing going on, based on the character designs and things others have said. I'm not sure though. I continue to insist that FiM season 1 was an important thing in my life.
You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
Try searching for one of the main six ponies' names on YouTube
I really love that there's no safe mode on windows 8. I'm so glad they got rid of that unnecessary feature and replaced it with a context menu that will pop up on its own, sometimes, when it feels like it.

shift + restart will get you to advanced startup options, you can get to safe mode from there IIRC

IIRC the only reason Microsoft removed the F8 keyboard shortcut for the Safe Mode menu was that testing found newer computers boot up so fast it's almost impossible to time it right anyway, even if you try mashing the buttons

I'm worried I haven't been having enough fun with Anonymous User lately
We need to find another thing to fan over together; we haven't had something like that in months
I worry about going to school because what if I can't pay any attention there or forget to do my homework....also, my only class got canceled for no reason and I'm going to the school today to see why.
Sometimes it good to be a crocodilian. And sometimes, it's absolutely awesome.
Yeah, try to kill me by locking me in a safe and dropping it into the ocean?
Nah, I eat iron. Literally.
Also, there's the whole "Holding your breath longer than any other air-breathing creature" thing that is only possible when you don't have stupid crap holding you back like a sapient mind or a stupid endothermic heat system. What good is a mind if you can't turn off all its functions higher than Keep Heart Beating Every Once or Twice A Minute, Yo?

yeah but that seems like a dumb reason to just get rid of it.
also my solution has now become "back everything up onto a million flashdrives, reinstall Windows 8".
I have no idea what could possibly be wrong with this thing.
reinstalling Windows 8 is going to be a tough ask in of itself, as that menu that lets you do such things only seems to come up when it feels like it, and there's no reliable way for me to get to it (everything that works consistently is undoable by me because of how bizarrely this thing has broken).
if I use a guest account, I can actually listen to music on the other one, but the taskbar is gone, and I can't actually get into my account proper. Furthermore, none of the tile buttons work (and the Window key does nothing) so I STILL cannot reliably get to that menu.
Also for some reason it refuses to acknowledge the existence of the internet.
I am listening to the most recent episode of Welcome to Night Vale. It works, but Windows Media Player is not actually visible, and I have been given the baffling error "call rejected by callee".

I've often thought that Hasbro was trying to chase off the fandom since, like, season 3, but Equestria Girls never struck me as much more than an attempt to compete with Monster High
Hasbro just thought it easier to parlay the My Little Pony brand onto that
Stop yakking about how human contact is good and social interaction is good and how video games and iphones and tablets are bad for children at every age of development because it disconnects them from other human beings. You're saying this on your podcast.
Yeah, I doubt there was any malice towards bronies in this case. (Though the whole thing reminds me of how WB got all upset over there being Rule 34 porn of Animaniacs characters...something they probably should have seen coming, seeing how many dirty jokes were in that show.)

Sega actually successfully kept a lid on Sonic porn (this was before even Rule 34 was a thing) for a while, until there was just to much of it and too many ways to distribute it for it to be monitored and policed.

Also, I've seen fan-art of Twilight eating meat because of her time in Equestria Girls. Highly amusing.
The movie definitely struck me as more of an attempt to make money than to ostracize bronies. I'm sure Hasbro is weary of the possible negative influences of bornies, but bronies also tend to have disposable income while children do not.
It's possible the idea that a high school setting would keep bronies away was seen as a fringe benefit, but the movie definitely has a few winks and nods directed at bronies.
Oh, now Diane Rehm is saying that middle schoolers and High Schoolers are "literally incapable of controlling themselves if they have a computer in their bedroom". They simply don't have the mental capacity.

At one point it seemed they were unhappy with much of the material on you tube, E.G. Friendship is Witchcraft being bared from being posed.
Lately, they seem OK with it, or at least feel it's not worth the effort to police, given that FiW is on Youtube again.
Honestly, the show doesn't do a good job of show casing ponies outside the Mane Six, the Cutie Mark crusaders, the princesses, and a handful of other characters. They should be happy that the fans have basically aided their giant toy ad campaign by making Bob-Bon, Lyra, Octavia, etc... interesting.

It's true, I had a computer in my bedroom in high school and rather than becoming a fully functional adult with a career in software engineering, I wasted all my time in between setting fire to everything in site.
I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
You know, I'm wondering how...erm, repressive it must have felt in the '80s and early '90s to have brands shoved in your face without all the parodies
MAD Magazine probably made fun of them, at least, but still
I'll be honest, as tangential as this sounds, I wish that Hasbro would put effort into making Hub Network something worthwhile, not little more than a collection of Hasbro product shows and reruns nobody else wants

He was Maximilianne Robespierre, she was Marie Antoinett, and they fought each other.
Walso, they were both spelled improperly.
