I didn't know this at the time I chose her for my September theme, but I just found out that Farrah's canon birthday was two days ago (27th September). That's a fairy cool coincidence!

This has been long overdue but I've finally started a fresh watch through of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic! This will be my second full watch through of the show in my life so far, with my first being when I was 18-19. I loved revisiting S1E1 tonight and I'm looking to watch about one episode a night for the next several months until I finish all 9 seasons (plus the Equestria Girls series, or at the very least the main EqG movies and specials.) Always lovely and nostalgic to come back to my comfort shows.

Shana Tovah everyone!

I just had my first death in my Minecraft forever world in over 2 years. I was working on a Shulker farm and had to take my armour off for invisibility to work but got hit by a chain of Shulker bullets anyway and then used an ender pearl to escape but realised too late I didn't have enough health to survive the pearl damage.

It's ok though I only lost a diamond sword (as that was the only item that fell into the void) and I have plenty of spares.

Very belated as we're well into July now but I finally have a signature for my Flame Princess theme now!

How did I just find out that the VA who sang Jump Up Super Star in Mario Odyssey is the same person as the VA for Briar Beauty in Ever After High

Another look at My Adventures with Green Lantern and the Starfire show

This is what Jessica Cruz looks like in My Adventures with Green Lantern, even better, she's being voiced by Auliʻi Cravalho, the voice of Moana

Happy 100th birthday to Sir David Attenborough! Still remember liking some nature documentaries voiced by this guy when I was younger and it's hexcellent to see him doing well at 100!

I am sooo stuck on the boo minigame in Super Princess Peach Shriek Mansion 3-6. There are way too many boos for me to tap them all away before they make it to the top screen and hit Peach (especially the Big Boos which take many taps to defeat), and it moves too fast for me to track which boos will and won't hit Peach.

Happy True Hearts Day everyone!

Hi everyone, just to let you all know the very sad news that unfortunately my former babysitter whom I really liked and was close to as a kid is very unwell right now, and her time is now very limited. This news came as a big shock a couple of days ago, as I had known she was not well previously but was not aware that she was getting worse. I'm hoping that I will be able to visit her in the time she has left and that she will be as comfortable and happy as possible in the coming weeks. My thoughts will be with her, her husband, and her kids.

Hi everyone, just sending an update that I had a great day today. In addition to great presents, great food, and some fun times with my parents, siblings, and brother in-law, I really enjoyed continuing my tradition of watching My Little Pony: Equestria Girls (2013) every year on this day for the 5th year running, to commemorate when I first watched it with my (now late) paternal granddad in 2021. The movie recently came out on Amazon Prime, so for the first time I saw it on this platform instead of my DVD, and I have to say the difference in quality felt like night and day, to the extent it almost felt like I was seeing a remaster of my favourite movie. Once again I had an awesome time revisiting this movie, and also had an oat milk hot chocolate with vegan whipped cream and an apple as a tribute to these foods appearing in the movie.

Today's my "veganniversary"! It's been a full year since I officially made my commitment to go strictly vegan on 24th Dec 2024 and I'm very proud of the journey that I've made. I'm looking forward to what the next year of veganism will bring!

My mom is unwell

I just learned for the first time that the Batman The Animated Series episode Joker's Favor (S1E22) in 1992 was actually the first time Harley Quinn ever appeared in anything, and she was originally supposed to be a one off character. I saw this episode last year without knowing that was her debut, and always assumed she had appeared in other media much earlier.

Happy 6th anniversary for me being on Super Mario Boards, happy birthday to my mother, and happy halloween!

Hi everyone, I just finished the bonus disc of Adventure Time. By far my favourite part was the Diamonds and Lemons episode, which was a fantastic crossover between Adventure Time, one of my favourite shows, and Minecraft, one of my favourite video games. I thought the art style perfectly incorporated AT's charm with the blocky Minecraft world, and I thought it was great to see so many iconic faces in Minecraft form, and the writing and dialogue was pretty great here (especially Lemongrab yelling "unacceptable!"). I also loved how many references there were to many different aspects of Minecraft (e.g. pumpkins prevent enderman attacking when you look at them, zombies rarely dropping carrots, bone meal makes trees grow faster), and even some things that are more community aspects than the game itself (e.g. "griefing".) I also loved the intro and credits sequences, and it's cool that Fionna and Cake briefly appear in the former too. My only gripe is that Endermen are repelled by rain in Minecraft but are unaffected in this episode. Despite this being a non canon crossover bonus episode, I would definitely consider this one of my favourite episodes of Adventure Time.

Other things on the bonus DVD included:

• The Farewell Tour: A 40 minute "behind the scenes" video featuring a lot of the staff and cast of the show, I didn't watch all of it as it didn't interest me that much but it's a nice inclusion.
• The Sonic Sounds of Ooo: Similar to the Farewell Tour but focused on music specifically, it was slightly interesting to me.
• Come Along With Me Music Video: A music video with colourful drawings to go with the song, it was cool but a bit too much flashing lights and colours for me.
• "Reboot" Animatic: This seems a very random inclusion, there is only one episode whose animatic is on the bonus disc when all the other animatics are in the discs for their respective season, but alright.
• Comic Con Concert: This was definitely my favourite part of the bonus disc besides Diamonds and Lemons, it was really cool to see the VAs do live performances of several songs in the series, including a lot of my favourites such as All Gummed Up Inside, My Best Friends In The World, I'm Just Your Problem, Everything Stays, and Time Adventure. Although I still prefer the OST versions, it's nice to see the live versions too.

That's all for my thoughts on the bonus disc! Looking forward to keeping you updated once I get to try out Distant Lands and Fionna and Cake.

Hi everyone, I just finished season 10 of Adventure Time! While I'm sad this adventure is over, I have very much enjoyed revisiting this wonderful series I loved as a kid, and the final season is no exception. Here are my thoughts:

• My favourite episode was the four-part season finale, Come Along With Me, which served as a fantastic conclusion to Adventure Time.
  Spoiler

  I really enjoyed the future setting and the new protagonists Shermy and Beth, as well as BMO still being around in the future in a hideout full of treasures referencing past episodes. I really loved both the songs in this finale too. It's also cool that they had a whole intro sequence just for the finale. I thought the story was very moving and entertaining and an excellent conclusion to things, and loved the montage at the end. I literally clapped and cried out in joy when Marceline and Princess Bubblegum kissed. I enjoyed the callback to the song from Fionna and Cake. One minor thing that bothers me is that King Man pronounced he is now King Man in Temple of Mars, yet they go back to calling him Normal Man here. I was kind of surprised by how well I could remember this episode considering I only saw it once before and that was 7 years ago.
• My least favourite episode was Blenanas, because I just didn't find it very interesting.
• I thought The Wild Hunt was an okay season premiere, and I enjoyed seeing more of Huntress Wizard.
• Always BMO Closing was a pretty fun episode with a silly premise.
• Son of Rap Bear was a fairly fun episode, and an enjoyable if less than perfect last episode to focus on Flame Princess. I enjoyed all the rapping and some hilarious whimsical moments, such as Finn saying "Rap Bear, Son of Rap Bear's father, said his son, Son of Rap Bear..." and Rap Bear having a dinner with his son that escalated into a rap battle and Rap Bear saying "he rapped my legs off." This episode has an interesting continuity error though, since Flame Princess says she usurped her dad when she was 14, even though that happened in the episode Earth and Water, and in that episode there was a flashback to baby Flame Princess which was outright said to be 15 years earlier, so she couldn't have been younger than 15 when she usurped him.
• Bonnibel Bubblegum was an excellent episode with interesting insight into Princess Bubblegum's earlier years.
• Seventeen was a cool episode, it's nice that we finally have an onscreen birthday for Finn again for the first time since his 13th in Mystery Train. Another fun coincidence is that this episode premiered in on 17/12/17.
• Ring of Fire was a fun episode showing Tree Trunks' surprisingly amazing backstory.
• Jake the Starchild was a pretty entertaining episode which further explains the true origin story of Jake and his powers. It has a great plot twist too.
• Temple of Mars was a great episode establishing that Normal Man became King Man, the new ruler of Mars, and showing what happened to Betty after "Elements". It has a great moral too. It also ends on a great cliffhanger that sets up for the season finale.

That's all for my thoughts on season 10! Next, I'm going to check out the bonus disc in my DVD collection and after that I plan to watch the successor series, Distant Lands and Fionna and Cake, one day.

Hi everyone, I recently finished season 9 of Adventure Time! This season was surprisingly the shortest by far at just 14 episodes, but it was still a good one. Here are my thoughts:

• Surprisingly, season 9 kicks off almost immediately with another 8-part miniseries "Elements" - with just one episode, the season 9 premiere "Orb" in between them. In my opinion this was the highlight of season 9, I would say I enjoyed it more than "Islands" but less than "Stakes." If I had to pick one favourite part I would choose the last part, Skyhooks II. I do think that Cloudy was pretty boring and blatant filler though.
• My least favourite episode was Fionna and Cake and Fionna, because while not as disappointing as The Prince who Wanted Everything it's still definitely a weaker F+C episode that barely even utilises the F+C universe since most of the episode is actually set in the main universe with F+C only seen in some parts through the video tapes. The only really interesting part of the episode is the introduction of an elderly Fionna in the "real" world, and
  Spoiler

  She turns out to be an imposter.
• Orb was a pretty nice season premiere which acts as a nice break between the Islands and Elements mini-series and does a good job of wrapping up the events of the former and setting up for the latter. It has a very interesting story about dreams.
• Abstract was an interesting episode focusing on Jake and showing more of Jermaine and his passion for art.
• Ketchup was a cool episode showing a fun dynamic between Marceline and BMO, having interesting retellings of the events of Elements and even showing more lore about those events which we hadn't previously known. The ending is very touching too.
• Whispers was a very entertaining but ominous episode.
• Three Buckets was a pretty good season finale, with a dramatic plot and climax, and a very mysterious ending.

That's all for my thoughts on season 9! I actually already started the first 3 episodes of season 10 without realising it, because my DVD set lumps together seasons 8, 9, and 10 as just "The Final Seasons" and so I didn't realise where season 9 ends and season 10 begins until I looked it up haha. Nonetheless I'm really looking forward to watching the rest of it, albeit I'm still very sad that I only have one season left now.

Hi everyone, I just finished season 8 of Adventure Time! I thought this was a pretty good season overall, perhaps not my favourite but still very enjoyable. Here are my thoughts:

• My favourite episode was Five Short Tables, since it's awesome to finally have another great Fionna and Cake episode for the first time since season 5 (The Prince Who Wanted Everything wasn't great imo), which is also a fantastic crossover with the "Five Short Graybles" format. The scenes in this are all very enjoyable, especially the one with Butterscotch Butler who speaks with a prominent Glaswegian accent, Marshall Lee and Lumpy Space Prince's acting scene, and when we go layers deep into fanfics when Ice Queen reads a fanfic about Ice President reading a fanfic to Flynn the Human Being and Jacques the Racoon, about Janet the Fox and Lynn the Person.
• My least favourite is hard to decide since all of the episodes were pretty enjoyable, but probably Horse and Ball since I just didn't find it as interesting as the others. I think James Baxter is okay but not my favourite as a character and didn't feel I needed another entire episode focusing on him. I did appreciate getting to see more of Raggedy Princess though since I find her pretty cute and remember mildly identifying with her when I was younger due to her being shy.
• I thought Broke His Crown was a fantastic season premiere, once again it was awesome to have another Marceline and Princess Bubblegum focused episode and they both have pretty cool hairstyles and outfits here too, and the plot was very interesting too.
• Beyond the Grotto was a supremely weird episode but reasonably enjoyable.
• Lady Rainicorn of the Crystal Dimension was a pretty interesting episode which tells us more of Rainicorn's past.
• Bun Bun was a pretty cute episode, and it's good to see Flame Princess and Finn having a friendly chat where they make amends, and Flame Princess being into rapping now.
• Normal Man was an excellent and nostalgic episode which really hit close to home for me as I really related to Normal Man's character arc of seeking redemption for his past wrongs and reconciliation with his brother, despite having lost his powers. The scene where they climb the mountain and face its many challenges is pretty cool too.
• Elemental was a pretty interesting episode, dropping more lore about the elements and introducing a very mysterious and kinda fun kinda annoying character Patience St. Pim.
• Daddy-Daughter Card Wars was a cool episode featuring the return of the cool game Card Wars from season 4, and with a good moral about being respectful even when you don't win. I also enjoyed the focus on Jake's daughter Charlie.
• Preboot / Reboot was a brilliant two-parter with a captivating plot, if a little confusing.
• Two Swords and Do No Harm were also great episodes following on from Reboot, introducing an interesting (if confusing about how he came to exist) new character Fern. Finn trying to be a doctor was quite entertaining too.
• Wheels was a decent episode introducing Bronwyn, who I quite like, but it feels incredibly weird to think that Jake is already a grandfather and even weirder that Finn is already a great-uncle (who, interestingly, is confirmed to still be 16 in this episode meaning he hasn't had a birthday yet since the season 6 finale.)
• High Strangeness was a pretty interesting episode focusing on Tree Trunks and further exploring Princess Bubblegum's moral ambiguity as a character, but the whole having a family with aliens thing was a bit weird.
• Jelly Beans Have Power is a cool episode where Princess Bubblegum learns to use her new superpowers.

Happy half-birthday to me! I'm exactly 22 and a half today, meaning I'm exactly a quarter of the way to being 90!

Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you all know that unfortunately due to something I didn't foresee until this morning I won't be able to be there for the awards ceremony tomorrow night. I'm sorry I couldn't make it this year but I hope it goes well and I hope to make it next year!

Hi everyone! I just installed Debian Trixie on my PC for the very first time! It came out a few days ago.

The update process went very smoothly and I'm enjoying it so far without issues, however I wouldn't say there are any new features specifically that I've found useful - maybe that just says how great Debian 12 was already! I also love the new theme "Ceratopsian" by Elise Couper.

Here is my desktop after updating:

Hey everyone, I just finished season 7 of Adventure Time. Interestingly, this season is back to being 26 episodes long, like the first four seasons. I think this season was quite good overall.

- My favourite episodes were the 8-part Stakes mini-series because it was amazing to finally revisit a very nostalgic mini-series I really loved as a kid, and it totally holds up! If I had to choose a favourite part, I would say May I Come In (part 5/8) because Hierophant was my favourite villain.
- My least favourite episode was President Porpoise is Missing because I found it a little bit bizarre and not very interesting to me.
- Bonnie and Neddy was a fairly strong season premiere revealing Bubblegum and the Candy Kingdom's true origin story.
- Varmints was a totally brilliant episode and by far the best in season 7 outside of Stakes, like Sky Witch I loved having an episode focusing on the relationship between Princess Bubblegum and Marceline.
- Football was a surprisingly dark episode but I quite enjoyed it.
- The More You Moe, The Moe you know was a decent episode, interestingly this is the first two-parter where my DVD collection lists it as a single episode in the menu and it plays the two parts on one continuous video, so I was confused about why this episode was lasting so long. Another very interesting fact, albeit one I didn't discover until afterwards, was that the promo art for this episode reveals that the character Moe is a Jewish guy, since we see him lighting a Menora (the candle with seven branches).
- Blank Eyed Girl was a pretty creepy episode with a really weird ending but I kind of enjoyed it.
- Bad Jubies was a fairly nice episode in a very interesting different animation style.
- Scamps was a fairly fun episode showcasing how non-conventional learning techniques can be effective.
- Crossover was quite a convoluted episode but still very enjoyable.
- The Hall of Egress was a brilliant and extremely interesting episode, though confusing in parts, especially Bubblegum's voice saying "At the seashell's center lies the Cornucopia's smallest door." which I don't understand. I feel like this episode is probably meant to have some deep meaning and maybe I just don't get it yet.
- The Thin Yellow Line was a pretty fun episode in its own right, but underwhelming as a season finale. This is the first time since season 1 that the season finale felt like an ordinary episode and not an epic special with a cliffhanger ending that opens the door for interesting new things to happen in the next season. I would have preferred The Hall of Egress as the season finale since it was much more interesting.

That's all for my thoughts on season 7! Totally looking forward to season 8!
