So, My Little Pony resumed today. For those who haven’t tried it yet, I recommend it! It’s cute and fun and happy.
Anyway, I had been both excited about new episodes and afraid for my (still under construction) fanfiction- sweeping changes to canon might require sweeping changes to the fanfiction. The episodes were just as much fun to watch as I expected, but better yet, everything new in this episode dovetailed neatly with what I’d written, with many of the changes making things even easier for me. (Instead of having to concoct a reason for Twilight to research rationality, now it’s basically been handed to me, so long as I jump on the opportunity quickly enough.)
Ponies are great. Though “Feeling Pinkie Keen” could have been handled better; there was a rationalist lesson there, but it’s not the one that ended up in the letter.
Then again, Twilight’s letters generally do a poor job of summing up the day’s Aesop.
