No, I might have to start over with it, or choose another model.
I might also need to consider buying a graphics tablet. Drawing by mouse is not the same as with stylus. And using my old drawing tablet just isn't the same as seeing exactly where the stylus/pencil is drawing on the screen/page.

As for Thorn himself, I've yet to decide if I want to rewrite his backstory.

Epic Mount's backstory was that he was a little foal from a far away land, taken by harpies and dropped into Everfree Forest.

I could effectively reuse that story, or I may have it that Thorn has been alone in Everwood Forest for as long as he can remember.
But, I like the idea of him coming across a slight rusted battleaxe lodged into a tree stump, tangled in thorny vines. The day he pulled that axe from the stump was the day he became a man!

(I call it Axecalibur, but will likely remain nameless.)

Thorn grew up in Everwood Forest, with only the witch doctor from far away lands who adopted him. The witch doctor taught him the common language and educated him in plants and herbs.

With TrotCon being cancelled (going online) (this year - says they will be back next year), the remaining general pony cons nearby include...

whinnycity (theme: renaissance faire; june)
sunshineponycon (new con; theme: none -- beach, susnhine(?) (august))
ciderfest ((top-tier) (november))

....all requiring relatively long drives & hotel rooms (as well as $)

am glad there is still interest and r still ponycons around (and new ones still appearing), tho
....but with the seeming increasing degeneracy of the fandom, everypony in the fandom being poor, and it never really becoming a countercultural movement, should remaining old-timey ponies just all become monks?

Foids and quartz do not coexist at equilibrium. If there were enough silica to form quartz when the rock was solidifying, foids would react with it to form feldspars.

I've been feeling nostalgic, and I was hoping to dip in and chat for a day or two.

This is a typical icebreaker thread. I might not check in for a little while, because it's pretty late here, but I've got the day off tomorrow.

Post your top 5 books, and maybe a reason why they're in your top 5. And if you'd like, just stop in and say hi.

1. Okay wow this is actually a hard decision. I'm gonna put here: The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents. My all time favorite children's book. Dark, gritty, uplifting and intelligent. I cried, I yelled in disbelief, I felt sad when it was over. A group of newly sapient rats have to deal with the realities of a world in which they can suddenly plan ahead and foresse consequences. Where death used to mean very little, even losing a single member of the group becomes a cause for concern. Pratchett explores themes of anger, grief and the meaning of life from the beautiful lens of rat society. Which is very cute, but also so sad.

2. Happiness by Matthieu Ricard - A lovely look at what makes humans happy, with practical guides to try and increase happiness. No single book has contributed more to my wellbeing.

3. With each and Every Breath by Thanissaro Bhikkhu - A really interesting collection of buddhist meditation techniques and explanations for how they work. Both this book and Happiness are written from a relatively western perspective. I use these techniques all the time when stretching or meditating.

4. A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers. A fun and queer science fiction novel about an artificial ship intelligence that is transplanted against her will into a body and has to adjust to life on the surface of a planet, instead of life in a ship's computer. A heartrending tale that tackles themes of neurodivergence and queer love. I find it to be unbelievably poignant and accessible. It shocked me when what I thought was a frivolous and lighthearted book spoke to such a deep part of me.

5. I thought I had to include one book that wasn't frivolous, so I'm going to say The Sage Handbook of Counselling Psychology. Contributed to by my favorite professor at Uni, Mr. Colin Feltham. It's a handy guide that I use all the time. It's very well written, and gives a good overview of the various types of therapy

It's good for me as a single person. I can have a dog when I have more free time and pass them on when I don't.

It's sad sure, it'd be better for the dogs to have long term families. But I'm not that person and this keeps them out of the shelter.

I have always thought that most Pokemon outside a few certain Pokemon like Alakazam and Metagross that are known for having super high intelligence (I guess Mewtwo and other Legenderies too) tend to be at a some of in-between stage.

They're not quite dumb animals but they're not fully human intelligence. Smart enough to understand commands and have a sense of self awareness but not enough to form languages and societies if you get my meaning.

Well, the show had Meowth who clearly showed human intelligence; and there were several episodes that focused on the Pokémon (where they spoke 'human' and acted very human-like), so that's the reason why I never considered them to be 'animals'.

My observation is that what set pokémon from a species apart from humans are two things:


Elemental attacks
They come in "types" which correspond to both how they adapted to their environment and the powerful attacks they can use with little explanation of the biology around them. Such as Fairy-Types using magic or Ghost-Types able to weaponize pure-fear.
All that is known that powers these attacks are called "Power Points", which means these elemental attacks still require a reserve of energy from the pokémon to use.

Evolution
Humans call it evolution, but it looks more like a cross between natural metamorphism for some animals (such as axolotles to salamanders via neoteny) but hurried with something like regeneration (from Doctor Who).
For a Time Lord, regeneration is when each and every cell in their body release an energy that both burn off and replace said cell, appearing as if the body is erupting in light. The Time Lord's memory and identity remains, but given they are technically a whole new person with different brain and personality, but at their core, still same person. Unlike Time Lords, evolution outcomes seem to be coded for the pokémon, though they may have changes in personality after evolution.
Thing is thoughh, things that give off light, gives off energy.
