Miscellaneous Morning News and Discussion


Long ago, back on /co/ and /b/, One of the biggest reasons the show gained support was because people really agreed very much with Lauren Faust's message in it: that television for little girls didn't have to be terrible. I remember myself going "Heck, I'll support the show just for that message: that sort of social change is worthwhile". Sadly that is but a footnote today. Both the bronies and Hasbro have distorted that original idea into other, completely different things. And yet, I still feel that the brony phenomenon has brought people together in a way that can cause change, even if it has lost its original goal. As people who considered themselves bronies graduate and find jobs, and disperse into the rest of society, What do you think will happen? Will it be a smooth transition? Will we manage to improve the world around us? Tell us what you think in the comments!

There's also some Miscellaneous notifications after the break.



Also you've likely already heard this on EqD, but Enterplay and Hot Topic have a new promotional item. It will hit the shelves of Hot Topic around 3/20/13 according to this Facebook post!
Thanks to Jordan Olling for letting us know!


Also over on DHN they've got more pictures of those plushies from Europe. As Robotbob said, "Spike... WANT!"
