The Republic of Luna Equestria is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, cynical population of 714m are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich.

As if we have 'Plans'. Our honorably dishonorable sneaky loud battleninja strat coupled with an inability to plan ahead or stick to a plan might seem like a dumb idea but it kinda works out sometimes. Even if Nusku is directly watching us at all times there's no way he can predict what we'll do or where we'll be.

A "Lets raise an army and march on the Capital" plan actually means "Sneak into the capital and assassinate the leadership" which on implementation will become "Call in an Ormstrike, or maybe attempt a dance battle".

i’m down with yelling EL HA... while yeeting whatever we have at hand towards... his hand. It does double duty of showing our piety piety while maybe getting a mighty word bonus from the watchers.

Anything we can do to show that we’re team El and hes not will go a long way in this situation.

Yeah, what actually won!?

Taking out the brazier:
"VAYAHI.. orrrr not?? :smug:"

In case of taking out Anaki's hand:
"Under no circumstances do we have to hand it to him."

Or

*Rushes up to captive woman, pointing a finger under her nose*
"Unhand her, Bald Fireguy!"
*Rushes to the brazier, pointing a finger into the flames*
"Unhand her, Bald Fireguy!"
*Rushes to Anaki and severs his hand/arm*
"Unhand her, Bald Fireguy!"

Perfectly logical poster who uses the tools available to him to come to solid conclusions

So as like a general Snulsmas annoucement....

I just want to say nearly everyone has shipped. And the few people that haven't because of unforseen circumstances etc have done a great job keeping me updated and providing progress reports. So just...thank you all so much for having your poo poo together and not make me chase you. You have no idea how much easier this makes everything for me and I really appreciate it.

And if you're one of the few folks that hasn't gotten shipping info yet, you should have at least gotten an update from me since Monday. If you don't see one, or have any questions, feel free to get in touch.

Merry Snulsmas, and Happy Asherannukah!

I am a one who has dishonored his fathers by failing to ship on time, but the actual shipment draws ever nearer.

In the meantime please accept this progress shot revealing the inner surface of my gift



As you can see, despite the immense amount of bleach I used, the results have been suboptimal. Also there's a barely noticeable giant crack that has formed because the bleach made it more brittle than expected, please be assured it is non-structural.

The hosed up part is I bleach tested first on some other pieces and it worked fine, this one got weird from it somehow. Maybe I used too much and should have done a couple small treatments. Maybe I should have done a peroxide / uv type deal.

The final reintegration and seal should fix it. If it gets worse or busts in half I will be happy to send a replacement without defects, but it will take a while.

Honestly, I just love Mel Blanc's over-the-top voicing of the villain more than anything.

It's technically a parody of a then-popular YA book series from circa 1900-1920s similar to the Hardy Boys novels, but the short remains noteworthy more for having the first use of motion blurring in a cartoon than anything.
