Tell Me On A Sunday
Added 2022-09-22 21:51:06 +0000 UTCI never knew! I had to hear it from Boots!
So you've likely gleaned this, but since people have asked, I'm taking an extended vacation from the Junior Gala comic. I will still draw ponies sometimes, as it amuses me to do so, but I'll mostly be drawing my own content. I was unimpressed with the direction of MLP:FIM in the last season or two, and that caused me to seriously lose interest. I guess I didn't hate it, but it was (in my opinion) really boring, and that's a pretty serious crime when a show is trying to keep its claws in the little bit of free time I have. Also, the longer a show goes on the more likely knuckleheads are to "inform" you that your FANcomic is not in perfect line with the canon. If you're REALLY lucky they'll say "I hate to break it to you..." like you don't watch the source material. It's a pet peeve, brothers and sisters and siblings. It gets me goat. It sticks in my craw. Don't do this stupid thing to poor old Aunt Kae. Don't make me yell at a cloud.
Chuuko does that enough for all of us.

Though I did get a chuckle when my fellow queers congratulated me on Babsie's scissor mark...as clearly her talent is rocking the worlds of other girls. XD

2022-09-23 12:01:23 +0000 UTCIt's amazing, the free-to-read content people can't just enjoy or quietly walk away from.

2022-09-23 12:01:06 +0000 UTCHAY KAE DID YOU KNOW BABS SEED HAS A SCISSOR CUTEY MARK? I did know that, and it's stupid.

2022-09-23 05:32:56 +0000 UTCI mean I ended up with an Nth-dimensional Ancient God falling from a higher plane of existence and bringing a bit of Horrible Filth And Parasites down to Four-Dimensional Space, and trying to carefully extract the horrible contamination from The Good Thing, and the discarded bits being PonyHammer 40k and Fallout Equestria and all the other GrimeDork stories

2022-09-23 02:46:57 +0000 UTCHmm, yeah, I guess in retrospect, surly spitfire JG Apple Bloom was pretty off base from her canon iteration. But that's the fun of characters, right? We can treat them like dolls and play with them the way children do, where the rules are made up and nothing matters! Sometimes I awaken in a feverish haze, like say, did I draw/write a multi-chapter fanfiction where I turned a season 1 pony character into a depressed alcoholic? And another into an adulteress? .....Did I give chubby beloved children's character Spike the dragon a half-changeling imperialist murder machine superspy for a son? Did I.....Did I give one of Rainbow Dash's kids an adderall addiction??? I have to snicker at it now. It's all so silly and insanely removed from the original source material. I suppose that in the end, these little pony adventures moved away from being fanart and simply became stories we wanted to tell, just with a curious layer of pony-colored paint on top. If it was pretty much original content in the end anyway, why not take that last step and snip that last tenuous thread connecting it to a children's cartoon? Why not indeed. I like Barbara Wolfe a lot more than Babs Seed anyhow. :3

2022-09-23 01:05:08 +0000 UTCYeah, the show lost me the last two seasons, too. And I 100% hear you on, "Why isn't this piece of canon included in your fanverse?" bullcrap.

2022-09-23 01:03:16 +0000 UTC"It's a fancomic, ya kazoo. It's not canon. THAT IS THE POINT." But let us enjoy the zoos we built ourselves, where nobody can tell us who's gay because we already know well-nigh EVERYBODY IS! And if you miss, I dunno, Apple Bloom or something? Worry not! JG Apple Bloom was nothing like canon Apple Bloom anyway! Now she's a cow! You're welcome, Moana!

2022-09-22 22:43:05 +0000 UTCI for one welcome the shift to original content! It's been wonderful getting to know more of the cast and stories of WWF. :D I get the sense that you're a lot more free to tell the stories you want, y'know, as opposed to being beholden to a magic world of talking horsies. I feel the same way about my own stories nowadays. >:3 When it came to drawing MLP stuff, the pedantic comments were always the worst. I look back at my stuff from 2021, back when I was still mostly drawing ponies, and yeesh I forgot how touchy people got about making their beloved horsies gay or trans or what have you. I had a full-blown stalker (several, even), who kept making sock puppet accounts to try to argue the sexualities of fictional ponies with me. And uh, he did that for years. YEARS. Over HORSES, Frog. Anyway, it feels good to have my own characters to get my grubby gay hands all over. WWF just feels so fun and free!
