This is the guy who made the first genetically-engineered babies (a horrific ethics violation that landed him 3 years in prison) and his tweets are so unhinged that I genuinely can't tell if he's trying to be funny or is 100% serious

Did you read the Rise of Cadance idw comic? If you did, what do you think about Liebe and the whole dragon part of it? It raised some interesting questions...

it's really funny that even people who support luigi mangione have like fully bought into the propaganda being pushed that he's the one who did it when he hasn't been convicted of shit and is extremely likely just some guy the nypd and eric adams could reasonably pass off as the person who did it to save face. That huge fucking perp walk (that shouldn't have even been legal to do) was to plant the idea in the public's mind that yeah, obviously this guy did it, why would they be doing this if he wasnt, and you all fell for it without even thinking about it.

Not the when I say "the Chinese/Russians/[insert nationality]", I obviously mean their government, not the individual people people suffering a moral injury from being told "you (the US) are villains".

This is why I'm side-eyeing people from the US who are only NOW acting like their world is being shattered lmao the racism and superiority came out real quick

(I am NOT talking about you if you already lost faith in US institutions way before. I was also not asking anyone to leave or do anything impossible. Literally just asked them to look more into the US' imperialist history)

Things Starlight Glimmer had to learn the hard way after moving to Ponyville:

- It is not okay to use mind control spells on my friends.

- It is not good to bottle up my emotions.

- Trixie is a terrible influence.

- Dragons have tapeta lucida.
