I've been hanging around and found a great example of how there's space for improvement in nature This video is a dissection of a giraffe's neck, so watch out

It's like horse stance but worse

My Little Pony I mean Firefly, Buffy, Muppet show, Clone High, Undergrads, Kim Possible waitthat'snotright

I love dark stuff and... actually, know what? REVIEW RANT TIME! The story is dark long and kinda sorta worth it, but it has some hick-ups It's very long but the stretched out segments don't have much meaning except for to show how dark the world is now It's starts off in the Fallout vault setting with the protagonist Lilttlepip accidentally helping a pony leave the stable(how they call vaults in the story) for the Equestria that was destroyed in a nuclear war outside of the stable. The stables were supposed to protect survivors from radiation and many generations later we have Littlepip. Littlepip has a crash on the runaway mare and so she decides to follow her and bring her back. Simple motivation and the hook for the story. It gets resolved early on(relatively speaking, it's huge) and then Littlepip & co have nothing to do at all. Kinda kills it and not much motivation to keep reading, except that the more you read, the more you find out about how the war started and what happened to the mane6, and that's very interesting. After some random encounters, the story gets back on track and there's something to look forward to. More than just being dark and stuff, it's depressing. Raiders seamlessly exist just to gross out people and in the beginning of the story they have some gross moments. The violence and grossness is seamless until it is directed at characters you care about and throughout the story we find out how the mane6 died and how the war hurt them. They go through a lot of depression and as they go down, the reader goes down, too. It also has some humor referencing the games and the show. The ones that reference the show kinda ruin it for me at times. Don't want to spoil anything, but the last awful referential joke at the end almost kills it for me. At least it explains how the war started. The humorous use of insults is amazing and the references to Littlepip's sex life are hilarious. I don't mind the use of gore, drugs, and cannibalism in the story. More then being dark, it's depressing, and that's the best part of the whole thing. Initially reading through it, I just wanted to rush through because it was so long and I wanted to see how long it would take. Now I miss the format and wish I had more to read. The depressing part stuck with me and kinda bothered me in a way that that sort of stuff does. I wanted to reason that it can't be the same Equestria, and it's not, it really shows the time it was written in. It's post season one but before Discord and no one is sure how everything works. Discord gets mentioned near the end and Cadance is not in the story at all. Plus, the Twilight's mom in the story has the wrong name. It has a kinda-sorta official spin-off written by someone else, but it's more dark and that makes it way sillier. Maybe I should read that one, it's way longer then the original. Fallout: Equestria gets 8/10 The story also has some funny typos that cause some ponies grow hands and feet that then get "tired"

Actually she said that last year Funny how fast tumblr works when fandoms are involved

While I was away I actually finished reading this thing aaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In my case, that would be exactly the thing that'd make me embarrassed

Maybe I should make a thread explaining why I'm so cool

WHAT?! THERE WAS ANOTHER MEAT THREAD I MISSED? shoot! Imagine you only have one sweater and you must wear it to go outside. It has some silly picture on it and you think it looks insanely dumb. You probably would be looking around trying to guess what people on the street are thinking and how dumb you look. In reality no one cares, they probably have something important they have to be. The universe wont implode because of a dumb sweater and you can't force it to care. The only thing the sweater hurts is your own ego. The pursuit of justice is a pursuit of ego's needs. If my right are violated, I have something stolen, I become a cow and get slaughtered for meat, my ego suffers. My ego dictates how I see the world and after I die, it disappears and all imaginary importance it used to carry, too. I don't care if I get hurt in the process. Sure, I can imagine how it would feel if something bad happened to me, but I can also see the bigger picture.

When the universe began, there was nothing but particles bouncing around. They came together and created stars and everything we have in the universe. We're not special, we're stardust and a part of everything that existed in the beginning of the universe. It just so happened that we became creatures that can appreciate this. There is no nature and technology, they are one. Everything has been one since the beginning of the universe. Suffering of one meat creature is nothing in comparison with the magnitude of the universe. But the creature lives inside its mind, it's neither good nor bad. It can become trapped and live in a world that is smaller, because its imagination allows that. If it opens its mind to the wonders of the universe, it can see how actually small it is. From there, there is either freedom or fear. If it can achieve freedom from seeing how insignificant it is, it can do anything. If it thinks that its life controlled by the watchful eye of god, then it will not grow. The whole universe is in the state of being. It doesn't have a mind or will or anything. It acts upon what happened after the big bang and keeps expanding. Human mind and its spirit lives in the state of becoming. We are not flesh, but it burdens us. Our imagination represents our potential and we strive to fulfill it. We are minds that want to transcend flesh. We think we're better and we think we will be better.

Can machines reach enlightenment? I can't stop thinking about that stuff since yelling about burning down forests in one other thread

Everyone is creeped out by the... creeps But that really doesn't help the westerners and they keep making creepy robots I think the best way around at early robots is only having one part look perfect Many artists long ago figured out that the mouth is the most important part at making heroes look friendly Like Robocop, Batman, Captain America They would have looked way creepier without a mouth Huge eyes on Spider-man help, too The mouth thing was also used for the opposite effect Still cool, though

That was the goofiest thing ever, not even The Doctor could help it Western technology relationship suuuuuuuuuuucks, especially in movies(even that one, gross goopy consoles, bleh) In The Matrix the machines will enslave humanity and farm them In Terminator the machines will decide one day that all humans must die Meanwhile in Japan, they have Astroboy, Megaman, Kamen Rider, what else? Original Power Rangers Robot heroes that live with humans and save the day, while Americans struggle to trust them Plus there's the problem of the uncanny valley

I fell off a few... VENGEAAAAAANCE!!!! Your post on page 3 is the best thing so far, but with all the running around, nature is something that should be controlled. In my eyes, it's not a cute fuzzy bear but a big uncute fuzzy bear that likes to eat faces. The balance is imaginary and unnecessarily. The world is a playing field and the nature is a recourse that can be manipulated.

I am point blank dead serious I started this thread because I'm writing a story about a futuristic world that is threatened by religious terrorists who hate technology and I need some arguments for the bad guy's side. I don't want the bad guys to be whiny but I can't understand their side very well. I thought I'd understand some stuff better but everything still sounds like whining to me. I have a long history with religious types and making them look bad will be easy, the hippies will be the final frontier for me

Whenever I hear "ideal world" I want to jump out the window
