>>43154769I guess she likes sad books now.
>>43152345>I know quite a few people here can write but I also understand the reluctance.The casual green reader seems to be an even more endangered species than writefags are these days, and the lack of readers always wears down the best of them. I've been friends with writefags before. Even the ones that got way, way more (You)s than I ever did, or ever will, all ended up quitting. They just felt like the audience for greens was dead--and this was back in 2018, too. I really miss them.It's worse than ever for writefags now (and most contentfags in general, but mainly writefags.) And I don't think it's going to get any better in the future. I do write for myself, cause I never would have gotten anything done otherwise, but why spend hours, or even any time at all, writing something if nobody is gonna read it? I've started asking myself that a lot more than I used to.
>>43154148Curious. My only guess is it may be some kinda neural cross-activation between friendship and incest. Does this feeling of strangeness vanish as you move to more and more distant relatives? Do you also find it strange to think of family members as enemies?
>>43154731It's not his drawing.
>>43154851I'm a newfag, literally arrived in 2026. I write greens (and draw) because if I don't get a release from my feelings, I will combust from yearning for ponies.I used to roam other boards and write greens and literature for them, but I either lost interest or other worse things. Once I watch through MLP I will likely leave. But for now, I write.

>>43154962>She dealt with the disturbing realization that sex, species and background are arbitrary parts of one's identity. She never chose to be male in her first life, either, and admitting that sent her spiraling.>In her experience? Neither existence is inherently good or bad, but mortal minds get so attached to the one body they're given.>The horror as she slowly stopped caring. Stopped trying to spite her own vulva with bizarre fantasies that never even got her off. Stopped screaming at the mirror. Realized nobody cared about her identity as much as she did. Stopped trying to act like A Guy or A Girl and just be herself, guns, carpentry, bisexual fantasies she wasn't quite ready to accept and all.>Cleaned up her act, fixed stuff around the orphanage (more than a few things she'd been the one to break), hung out with the weirdos in the background, backslid a few times when particularly sentimental past memories resurfaced, got a reputation for being the kind of crazy who's too dumb or weird or obsessed to even think of being evil- and that's why the mayor had her fixing that fucking bookshelf, when Nightmare Moon returned, ended up a main character despite her best efforts.>Made six Actual Fucking Friends- not business partners or drinking buddies, actual friends she can tell (almost) anything to.>They're not perfect, in fact they're kind of assholes a lot of the time, but so is she so whatever.>If they weren't assholes, they might've just walked away when Trixie challenged them, and then Trixie wouldn't need her.>Show knowledge? Nah, just... Just a nudge in a better direction. A little understanding.>And now you're here. Underground, in Ponyville's fucking First Time Factorio nightmare of a water and power system, about to be exploded if you're lucky enough to not be crushed low and slow.>Maybe it would've been better if you just let it play out the same, huh?>Yeah. Here. Remember- the place that's also the thing that's about to kill you? Shit for brains.>Rattling. Thunder all around. Old klaxons coming back on, new ones getting even louder.>If there were a soundtrack for your life, this would be the part with the slow motion tragic choir while the camera moves just fast enough to linger over every bit of carnage.Comment too long.

>>43154966>And outside this room, did the other spa survivors get out yet? Is Pinkie gonna die down here with you? She's been quiet and... normal, for lack of a better word, since the shark incident.>Beyond the tunnels- They said the town could blow up. Probably an exaggeration, but by how much? Even if it's just the water/power plant, that'll be disastrous for the town for months. How many will die before water shipments start arriving? How many are dying right now under rubble? How long will the hospital last on generators?>Hell, how many daysweeksmonthsyears will Equestria last if one or two of the elements is just... fucking gone? Can a group of bearers even be reconstituted or is this a once-in-a-generation, destined-defenders type deal?>The weight of responsibility hangs like a lead noose. Idiot.

Not a lead noose, not at all.>There has to be a way out, but how?>Time starts to speed up again. The world shakes.

>>43154987>Your dad- your human dad, you never had a pony dad- liked to call anger a guard dog. Chain it up and it's useless, let it free and it invites trouble.>But feed it, love it, train it, make it respect you? The embers of that will get you through anything, even if it kills you.>God. He was so fucking corny, but Equestria likes corny shit like that.>It's a place where silly old people making clumsy metaphors can be the coolest fuckers in the room. Where the government actually kind of gives a shit in a selfless and honor-bound way. Where a purple, chubby little nerd can stun an ancient warlock with her friendship doctrine long enough to cast Power Word: Fren. Where a borderline charlatan hobo can warm the hindquarters of a national hero with some line from- yeah she stole that from Hinny of the Hills!>The idea that right now, all that could end? Not just you, or Trixie, but that right now could be the start of a chain of events that destroys such a strange and precious little corner of the cosmos?>Failure is not an option. Anything less than 100% survival is unacceptable. Nobody gets left behind, not this time!>Tear yourself out of her grasp, caress her face. No, do it right, take her face in both hooves. Gaze into her eyes as the world falls apart. Get lost in those eyes, so lost that death itself would never find you.>It could be the last time, but not for lack of trying.>Kiss her. Snap out of it, get to that bellows and PUSH->Imminent danger. Threat approaching: above and behind!>You react to the rattling in the ceiling before you hear it- oh yes, the sound reached your ears, but you didn't *hear* it until well after the crisis. Fight or flight can be like that.>A blue mare is thrown in a direction that you hope against all hope is safer than here. >Scalding steam and shrapnel meant for her comes for you.

>>43154997>*IMAGINATION TIME!*>The ship of you is listing in hostile waters.>The rearmost of four masts is cracked, a sail slashed.>Little green fillies in littler sailor outfits run to and fro in a panic. Most are screaming about the damaged mast, a few are worried about the impacts to the bridge, some are even considering scuttling the ship and jumping off.>Heavy footsteps. A frothy-mouthed chimpanzee in a frock coat and tricorne hat walks onto the bridge. The filly in the lookout post screams- why bother with warnings if we're just going to sail right into the threat!?>He is flanked by a green mare with scarred legs and bad makeup, and the nicest, sweetest pitbull that ever had a piece of that mare in his teeth.>The sailors look at their captain. The cacophany of random reports go silent, but the majority are still screaming about that mast. So busy screaming that they don't notice the support ship coming to brace the mast.>What to do about that?>Ponies like songs, don't they? Well->An imperceptible nod to the pitbull. His tail begins wagging. No- thumping a rhythm.>A battle hymn of spite against the slow, crushing advance of the ocean.>A chorus strikes up.

Aaaand->Nothing. IT WON'T BUDGE.>Doesn't help that you can't put much weight on that back leg- fuck what now?>Well>Dead if you don't. Is gritting your teeth and forcing it really such a bad idea in that light?>Well, dunno, let's seeEEEOW yeah that's bad. Dumbass. Now press on anyway, before it's too late to ever act again.>You find yourself singing, for some reason. The pump moves a little- coincidence? Maybe.>Blue light. Trixie's doing... something helpful. Must be- you don't know what, you don't need to.>The pump's moving! A full pump has been... pumped!>Sing a little louder. Feel a little less.

>What is Flutterrape?Flutterrape is a collection of stories about ponies trying and failing to have sex with Anon, the only human in Equestria. While the title implies that it is Fluttershy trying to rape Anon, others may follow in her stead and attempt their own versions of rape. There are different versions of Flutterrape, but most are light-hearted comedies about the ponies failing in their attempts to get into Anon’s pants. Just because your story has Anon in it, doesn't mean it fits in this thread. Check other threads (AiE, RGRE etc) about story content before posting.>It's been 12 years, how is this thread still alive?A perverse mixture of necromancy and spite.>How do I start writing?Use your imagination, you nitwit.

>>43152933No but the standard library is very web-centric. You can extremely easily spin up a web server from the standard library, there's tons of HTTP utils and IIRC even built-in HTML templating again all in the stl, and goroutines are basically perfectly designed for making writing a multi-threaded web server as easy as possible.From a developer standpoint it's basically as easy if not easier than a nodejs+express server, but as a native language. In this context being garbage collected is irrelevant compared to the benefits of not running a humongous javascript runtime.
