I'm also an autistic person with many special interests, but I've been making fan art less frequently as of late. My special interests are reading (also), writing, watching animation, and social justice.

Nice to meet another fellow autistic person! :)

I'm an autistic artist with many special interests. I love to read, make art, and listen to music. I'm currently specialized as a My Little Pony fanartist. But I am trying to branch out artistically.

The mane 6 and Spike floating happily in dark blue waters. The ponies are positioned in clockwise order starting at 12: Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle. And Spike is in the center. Various rock and plant life decorate the scene.

A largish purple alicorn with her body orientated to the left. She looks at the viewer with an evil grin behind phantasmal glasses. She has large purple wings open and is hovering midair. Her mane and tail are like fire. The mane stands up in large purple and pink flame. Her tail is long and sweeps down in similar flame. She wears dark purple regalia shoes and necklace. At the center of the necklace is a pink star shaped like Twilight Sparkle's cutie mark. At the center of the shoes is a pink diamond and the bottoms of them are cyan matching the cyan highlights of the necklace. The background is a sky full of stormy gray clouds.

A flat color illustration of Sunset Shimmer smiling sympathetically while she hovers midair. She is in a pony version of her Daydream Shimmer form. She is tall with the body proportions like Celestia. Her pink and white feathery wings are spread open and she has a long white horn. Her long flowing mane and tail are speckled with embers like fire. She has red facial markings around her eyes. She wears copper regalia with sun symbols on them; they are a chest plate and shoes shaped like flames, heart, and wings. The background is a clear blue sky with the sun out in the upper left corner.

I'm sticking to the autistic pride flag.

The autistic pride flag depicts a red stripe and an orange stripe on top, a light green stripe and a slightly darker green stripe on the bottom, and a thicker yellow stripe in between with a white infinity symbol in the middle.

15 years already. I remember being in my early 20s hearing about the show for the first time and giving it a shot. Everything changed after that: I gained some of the best friends I've ever had and met you all

Happy anniversary, FiM! What memories do you have of these past 15 years?

If I had a nickel for every time a fan-made MLP crossover made me gain and later regain interest in MLP: FiM, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

First we must study how colonization works to decivilize the colonizer, to brutalize him in the true sense of the word, to degrade him, to awaken him to buried instincts, to covetousness, violence, race hatred, and moral relativism; [...]."

What I appreciate about videos like this one is that they serve as great counters to the pervading capitalist realism that paints the current economic system as the only possible system. A better world is possible for both workers and the planet; don't let the ruling class tell you otherwise.

The middle panel on the right is a fairly accurate description of the struggles neurodivergent students face under a school system meant for neurotypical students.

Wonderful comic, btw. I like seeing comics and other media depicting neurodivergent characters in a positive light.

as a neurodivergent & also weird kid school was hell for me, though these days I struggle to remember the names of all the teachers who bullied me. But the three that treated me like a person have never left me. Now more than ever, I hope you all try your best to stay unsquishable!

Due to the enormously vast distances, it takes light years for the lights of neighboring stars to reach Earth. Alpha Centari, for example, is around 4.4 light years away, meaning its light takes 4.4 years to reach our eyes.

About time someone from the official staff is calling out SaveMLP.

It's one thing to not like the finale. People are allowed to have opinions. But to go out of one's way to harass those who worked on the show to force them to rewrite an entire season to fit one's opinions is next-level toxicity.

Let’s make a planet in which nobody is starving. Let’s make a planet in which men and women have equal access to power. Let us make a planet in which no ethnic group has it over another ethnic group. Let’s have a planet in which science and engineering is used for the benefit of everybody on the planet. And my personal idiosyncrasy, let’s have a world in which we go to other worlds.

Althusser would have termed this "interpellation." We are constantly encountering and internalizing certain beliefs, values, and norms without a second thought, transforming from individuals into subjects. We are constantly hailed/interpellated.

Just finished reading this book. It is an amazing but brutal dystopian fic that dives into how pleasure and happiness are used as weapons of social control, themes that are still relevant today. It still remains my favorite dystopian novel to this day.
