Even the old Starlight would be a better president than who we've got.

Speaking of which, the fanfic author who does the Cadance of Cloudsdale series was frustrated that they picked Twilight's mom to be the daredevil. :lol:

That person makes an interesting point:
After hints in "Three's a Crowd" and in the comics canon that Cady is a closet adrenaline junkie, we had the chance to show it once and for all, but the script veered off and gave the trait to Velvet instead. Apparently what Cadance wants to do on her vacation cruise is be at playgroup with Flurry. Daring character choice, folks.

Maybe Cadance, being one of the two VIPs of this cruise, was less willing to do something quite so wild in this situation? When you're under pressure to appear as a good princess, riding a barrel off of a waterfall is not exactly dignified.

Well, additionally she actually had a child to look after so that was a factor as well that didn't apply to three's a crowd.

I just clicked over to this from the MLP Movie thread and for a second I wondered what ever gave you such a change of heart.

So this news came out, regarding someone who was a writer on Ponies back in season 1.

I have no words, other than this makes me feel icky :-/

And sometimes we wonder why the animation industry is so insular. Sheesh. At least Chris Savino's involvement with FiM was pretty limited since he was just a writer.

Checking the wiki, it may be a little more complex than that - he wrote Boast Busters and is credited as the reason Trixie wasn't a Trevor.

I guess I'm now realizing that sexual harassment is so common that even a show developed and produced by a feminist creator, like Ponies, had someone like him on staff.

Although it's now understandable why he never returned after writing just two episodes :v:

It is pervasive and ubiquitous, as my social media feeds attest.



Scum.

There are a lot of rape culture apologists in the comment section. I wonder if this article would be more appropriate in the political section then the pony section seeing how it has very little to do with actual pony stuff.

It's relevant up here in that Chris Savino wrote a couple of S1 episodes, I figure.

While we're at it, this open letter is being sent to all the major animation companies.
