I'm unfamiliar. Could you provide more context as to what the purpose of that thread was and why it was eventually locked? Poster at the time shared experience having been raped and shared certain aspects of the case. Others offered support or talked about their own experiences, social stigmas, rap...

Library of Friendship Part II: Going to Tartaros in a Handbasket Ponyville, Equestria “Oh! Nice to meet you,” Sunburst smiled awkwardly and used his telekinesis to adjust his glasses. “Sorry, I uh, I’ve never actually seen humans before. Wow, you’re very, tall.” Amanda, charmed, burst into a huge s...

Monarchs with some power can be useful, as long as it's understood that they serve the people, not the other way around. Misuse or even too much use of the powers they have should be met with their legal removal by the people. In short, the role of a president in a parliamentary system. If you want...

Hot Tub Party, Crystal Spa Crystal Empire, Equestria "Obviously I can't know if I would have preferred that life, but the fact that I can't know, that I can't make that choice, that's hard to deal with sometimes." Sandy listened closely, and at that statement, raised both eyebrows, and no...

Hot Tub Party, Crystal Spa Crystal Empire, Equestria Willow winced at her injuries, sympathetically. "I'm very sorry... that must have been terrifying." "The cat-and-mouse beforehand was much worse," replied Amanda, in a matter of fact voice. "Cat-and-cat, really, whoever g...

Does it matter? If somebody dives into a river to save a drowning person because they believe it will get them their five minutes of fame, they still have taken on a great risk to save a life. That seems good by itself. It's a good action, yes. But I don't know if the person is good if they're only...

Given an incentive, people will do good. If they need an incentive, are they really good? Does it matter? If somebody dives into a river to save a drowning person because they believe it will get them their five minutes of fame, they still have taken on a great risk to save a life. That seems good ...

The poll needs more categories, since there's a big gap between "sometimes" and "always".

[x] People are good most of the time, but can be led into evil.

Yes, there are people capable of being good all the time, and more people capable of being good a lot of the time. That civilized society continues to function should be proof enough; crime, rioting and unrest are exceptions, not the rule.

I'm not sure what's at the other end of the link, but there's no reason to post it twice. Since the first post of their history is missing, I'm guessing it was tossed in the evidence locker.

Hot Tub Party, Crystal Spa Crystal Empire, Equestria "I arrived because of a silly little chipmunk and didn't have the power to get back home, but can't you go back any time?" "It may not be safe to go home." Amanda shook her head sadly. "Sandy has, or had, enemies. When we...

If that much water was released all once, near or at the coast of Japan, it would pose more risk to Japanese (coastal) fisheries. The assumption that it would become quickly diluted in the whole ocean is not at all sound. I didn't say quickly diluted, I said diluted long before it reached the US. C...

Japan’s government has reportedly decided to release more than 1m tonnes of contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant into the sea, setting it on a collision course with local fishermen who say the move will destroy their industry. Media reports said work to release the wate...

It's a little more complicated than that, Farn. But still an interesting tale.

Hot Tub Party, Crystal Spa Crystal Empire, Equestria Amanda listened patiently to Willow's spiel, occasionally frowning, but giving little other reaction. "Then there's no need for me to commit to anything now. Cadance gave us an open invitation, so I can take my time. I can even interview the...

"Egypt authorities", eh? Well, now we know what Arch has been up to lately.

Hmmm I see. Wouldn’t have any spitballing of MoEs and how pollsters and/or aggregates got those figures lying around would you? Better: here's a long list of current polls . If you click on any of the polls linked in the first column, it'll take you to all the polls for that state. For example, Flo...
