My brother in Christ, thank you for this. Hilarious!

i did NOT expect this to actually exist

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

The incorporation of more violent and mature content contributes to a darker overall tone than the Friendship Is Magic source material.

I had expected it but was still disappointed.

how does a pony fire an AK-47?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Battle saddles - basically a saddle with mouth trigger to which you mount whatever weapon you need and auto reload on kick. Or telekinesis, if unicorn.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I haven't read it, since it's MLP, and also since it's apparently 2000 pages, so I can't tell you. But I do want to know

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago (2 children)

In "Fallout: Equestria," ponies fire guns and perform other actions using:

  1. Magic and Telekinesis: Unicorns use magic to manipulate objects.
  2. Adaptive Technology: Specialized tools and mechanisms for hooves.
  3. Collaboration: Teamwork leveraging unique strengths.
  4. Creative Problem-Solving: Innovative use of tools and environment.

These adaptations showcase the ponies' resilience in a post-apocalyptic world.

Huh. Dunno if any of that is true, shan't verify

Or, in Tamers12345’s universe (objectively the best one) you can just DO it… with varying degrees of success.

Sometimes in fantasy or scifi it's fine to say "that's just how it is, don't worry about it" hah

AK, in Fallout world? Pffft

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The "chinese assault rifle" from Fallout 3 looks pretty much like an AK to me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

It pretty much is tbh

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

They have particularly nimble pelvic muscles.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

You might be overthinking it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

It pulls the trigger. Duh.

Honestly, Wikipedia, who the fuck still uses a subdomain for mobile?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Honestly, please do. Don't try to deduce it from UA or worse yet, aspect ratio. The results are predictable this way. Or maybe have 3 subdomains, m.example.org for mobile, d.example.org for desktop, example.org for auto.

Holy equestrian atrocity. I thought only AI...

There were at least 4 books from what I remember. They made physical hardback copies so you could enjoy an MLP fanfic for the low low cost of $120!

I was shocked at first but then i was like "yeah, sounds right" and then i looked up the word count of this collection of stories and...620,000 words across over 2000 pages.

War and Peace only has 587,000.

amazed. I'm amazed. Thanks for showing me this.

Have you heard of Sonic? What about Pikachu? Now, what happens when we combine them together to make... Sonichu!

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Whoa, that’s amazing! I’m gonna show my elderly mother!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The medallion is also cursed.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

We all are.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I actually read the entirety of HPMoR to my elderly mother. I tried to sell her on Friendship is Optimal but I think rationalist pony fanfic is a bit too ambitious a leap.

piknic is way better than sonichu

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Woah woah woah, sonichu is a totally Original Character (do not steal), that has nothing to do with either of those!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Now, what happens when we combine them together to make… Sonichu!

...you get serially harassed by online weirdos, likely become the single most documented human in all of history because of said weirdos, come out as trans and eventually get charged for incest with your mother?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Whatever happened to that guy? Last I heard they let him out of prison.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Don't know the answer, but I think she uses "she/her" pronouns now.

I've got the giant bible version of it. Thin paper, gold edges.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago

One time a colleague and I found that book just chilling under an unused desk at work. We had never heard of it, so we were pretty confused. 😆 Still kinda am, honestly.

Fallout: Equestria is a rabbit hole in the rabbit hole of the MLP fandom

Still better than AI "art" 🤷

Still a better story than fallout 4

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

God I remember reading about the adventures of Security for years after I stopped watching MLP. Fallout: Equestria was a wild place with two mammoth works written in the space.

OP's gay and a furry. Lol.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

That's like a quarter of lemmy.

Reply All, keeping me up to date on pop culture.

Hang on there Anon, I'm thirsty so I'm gonna get a cup of bleach before you start.
