>>43059440I'm not going to let /ss/ die until my gift arrives!
>>43059568I'm not going to let /ss/ die until your gift arrives!
We going to have /ss/ thread up till summer at this paceMy santa has finally sent the gift, but gotta wait few weeks since it is coming all the way from the blessed US of AHopefully the thread is still around for me to post it
I'm sad that my card with really neat handmade addition never arrived and probably is lost forever to swirling tartarus of international mail.
>>43059832Not all hope is lost Anon, I received a card that was posted mid December last week!But, yeah, if you can, send tracking number too with your cards.
>>43059903They didn't even offer one when I sent it out. (From nordics to america.)I should press them next year whether they have an option.
I just got my card from santa last night!
Giddyup Greasy last call for asking about your merch/plush situation. Gonna jump in on my ideas tomorrow.
>>43060027Happy horsemas!the consequences of your actions will catch up to you..
>>43059956Registered mail will tend to have (very basic) tracking. If you only send a couple cards it may be worth it (since it's also like three times more expensive).
>>43059793I'm happy to hear that Anon!
>>43059440It's not fucking March?
>>43060582Give it like four days
>>43060731Six. Big difference
>>43060753>Six...Seven?
>>43060771EIGHT! EIGHT!!!!!
>>43060775NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN
>>43060975you fool you are going to summon the white one
>>43060027I just got mine friday! Havnt had time to go actually open it yet though. Tonight I will!
Starting to lose hope Buzzard Beater will ever post his gift
>>43061608mail him an angry letter
i wonder what the next santa will be like without pony claus
I must rush to work, but just a quick note.I have been said that it's not possible now to send anything from France to the US.I might be able to send paper card, but even this it may not be possible.I'm looking for alternatives.Any other Frogs in the thread ?Did you have the same problem, or is it my post office playing me fool?
>>43062484Mine just worked but maybe the US just fucked everything up? Besides that FedEx, UPS and such will work.
>>43062484I'm sorry that my country is being retarded right now and it's probably only going to get worse
>>43062484bro just let me help you outIf not the SBA then you can send me the cards and I can throw them in a mailbox without intentionally looking at the addresses, you can even buy and print the stamps yourself so I really have to do barely anything if you don't want me to.
>>43063324Idk about you but I could stare at the address for 5 minutes and by the time I've made it to the mailbox and back in the house you could point a gun at me and I wouldn't be able to give you the guy's name
>>43061126Only thing worse is the purple one
>>43064300ARYANNE NEGA????
>>43064414Worse.
>>43064461nightmare moon?
>>43064461Nyx?
>>43064724I am going to kill you now
>>43059832me too, I posted my cards in November and not a single one was posted here. I have confirmation that one arrived because I was in contact with the person through discord, but the other 4 I sent are sadly lost to the ether.
>>43065098I just got a card this month so there's some tomfoolery going on
I think my santa fucked upHe declared the gift $500 in valueThe EU customs are going to rape my ass for thisI have no idea how to cheat this, send help
>>43065395Oh god not again, we had something like that a couple years backIn theory you could refuse it and hope it gets sent back for resending, but I don''t think that's a risk worth taking. Post with your ID/contact Kiwi if latecomer to try and get your santa's attention, if they can't help you I'd be willing to help you out.
>>43065559This is still my original santa, he just took a little bit extra for the gift to be sent. He also doesn't come into the threadI do have a contact on him, but he isn't very much responsive. I will have to wait for it to arrive into my country and see what I can do with that. I'd prefer not to turn it away because I have been waiting for it for a while now
>>43061608You have his address,>rapehim
>>43065573>He also doesn't come into the threadpic relatedIf he won't help you out with the charge and it's too much for you then post again once it comes in and I'll pitch in.>>43062484I did send you an email a few days ago by the way, I realise now that with how often I've seen derpymail not trust itself there's a chance you may not have gotten it or I may not have gotten any answer you may have sent.>>43064031Plus there's a chance I've been cardees with several of these people in the past and have their addresses anyways.
just got this in the mail today. thank you!
10 Gallon Hat, this is your Santa! The thing I ordered for your gift finally came in today, though it was a bit to late for me to make the post office in time. It's all boxed up and ready for you, but I'll have to send it out tomorrow morning. Enjoy this Lyra image as compensation
>>43064300>>43064724>>43064736>PurpleYou guys really can't figure this out?
>>43067253we are retar
>>43066777Happy horsemas!
>>43067697me too thanks
I just sent out a rescue box and a resent a card to one of my cardees (this time with tracking), as the first card has probably been lost to international mail.
Bump from workStill gotta psot the mass mailer gift/letter.>>43066942Huzzah! Do be sure to include a return address, I may wish to send something in return, though it may be inexpensive as my current situation dictates frugality. I take it youre a Derpy lover?
>>43059793>>43065395>>43065573>>43066078Is this still Analog Candle we're talking about? This is ridiculous, mailing out your international gift in late Feb is already not great.... and to screw over the recipient like that on the customs form? I hope the gift you receive is absolutely grand. It had better be to make up for all this.
>>43068788Yeah that's himI have to wait for the package to reach my country to do a proper customs declaration, a lot of times they don't check what is actually written on the label so I might be able to cheat it.Who knows, maybe the gift will be worth it. I am trying not to spoil what's inside even though I had a glance at the customs declaration already
>>43067697>Surprise, motherfuckers
>>43068932NOWE KILLED HIMI WATCHED HIM BURN
>>43068710I love Derpy with everything I've got and then some, heart and soul. I could wax on for hours about her, but I have important news to share! You've got a package nearly 2 feet cubed headed your way, arrival date March 4th! Been busy today but I just got the email with the tracking number over to Kiwi to send your way. Hope it brings with it lots of cheer!
>>43069137Are you sure?
>>43069513>cookie kiln anon gets a custom plush of cookie kiln for /ss/ 2026>lifesize, beautifully made, great ass, cute snout>but her belly is a bit weirdly large, no?>a few anons point it out, and he discovers the zipped pocket between her flanks>he reaches inside the mare, and deep in her belly, he feels something>to his horror, he pulls it out, to reveal>cookie kiln, giving birth to peanut by his own hands>many luls are had>he burns peanut, but it's too late to save poor cookie
>>43069513Haven't you heard? Cookie kiln and Piping hot burned peanut and then licked each other's marebitshttps://ponerpics.org/images/7131825
>>43069946wait theres porn of her? I'm gonna need a minute lads...
>>43065395>>43068788I did not label it $500? I labeled it $155?? Was this too much?
>>43069653anon that's terrifying can you please introduce your keyboard to a woodchipper and maybe also your fingers>>43069946jej they don't even have maid cookie from this year (last year?)
>>43070269ah I see what I did wrong on the form, I labelled the quantity of the $10 item to 10 rather than 1, thus the total comes out to $245 for the package. idk why it's >$500, but i'll see if I can clear this up at the post office tomorrow. ALSO CHECK YOUR EMAIL
We need a "Santee didn't check their Email" bingo square for next time
>>43070269>>43070297>If a gift is declared under €45 (included) no fees are applied>If a gift is declared above €45 but under €150 (included), a VAT will be calculated from the declared value of the package>if a gift is declared above €150, both VAT and customs fees will be calculated from the declared value of the packageSo>declared value €207>VAT is 21% which comes to €43,5>Customs fees are 21% which comes to additional €43,5My hope is that I can declare the stickers as $1 a piece which comes to $10 and would keep the price of the package under €150 so I'd have to pay only one portion of itBut maybe I will be able to cheat it somehow or argue with the customs enough they will let it pass
>>43069653You give me an awful AWFUL idea
>>43070269I hope this is just lighting conditions but wtf I can barely read this, use any kind of pen not a pencil.Also use realistic values, you bought it and are passing it on so it definitely isn't full value anymore ^:).And ideally do the customs declaration digitally if you can, speeds up the process.
>>43069946>>43070276Oh my this was definitely not what I expected to see
>>43070467MOOOODS KILL HIM before he can defile my precious dragonmare>>43070950she got tha milk for tha cookies
>>43071362
>>43071301Imagine. Milkable dragonpony plush with ezbake oven vagina for cookie making.
Diamondback Tak the Yak, I hope you enjoy your gift. I put a lot of footwork in trying to find a place that would break 20s into singles since nowhere has them anymore.
Hello yes am alive. Cease the Cursed Peanut Posting or I might not be. Things have been quiet without him...too quiet now I think about it.
>>43071706Where group picture?
>>43071684>Milkable dragonpony plushOkay maybe you're onto something here...(But the womb oven just sounds like a fire hazard)
>>43071695Yak Stripper?I'm okay with thisHas diamond encrusted reigns she strips off unf~
>>430692992x2x2'??? ANON WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SENDING ME
>>43071706we missed you, Kiwi, look at what you make us do when you leave
>>43072320
>>43072294>anon opens the box to see a beach ball hastily painted to look like a rotund pony
>>43072479>rape
>>43072669how is anon going to explain it to his mother when she walks in on him desperately fucking a beachball
Holy shit Pony Claus dropped off a letter today. Thanks Pony Claus!
Pudding Pie your gift should be at your door steps within a week, keep an eye out! If you want you can drop your email here and I'll pass the tracking number to you.
>>43073012Where is the post!!!!
>>43074420What's in the box twily?
>>43074789300 pounds of pony ass
>>43075051fuck imagine how good a 300 pound silicone cast of pony ass would be to plap
>>43075051She managed to fit anon filly's mom in that little box?
>>43075509milf anon mare is underrated
>>43075762if anon mare gets pregnant does it drag another human soul to equestria
>>43076032Yes. Anon's womb is actually the easiest way to Equestria, but you have to live with the fact that a random Anon is now your horse mom.
Are we doing Horsemas next year.....
>>43076444I hope so :(
>>43076444I will continue to run card assignments until I can no longer or until it’s decided (you) all want a new organizer.I’m sorry for being so silent but 2025 was extremely rough and I only had the energy to do assignments and that was it before things got worse. Even closed the P.O. Box so I couldn’t accept anything from anyone. Just popping in to say things will still run, at least on the card side, as long as I am able
>>43076913Blessings be with thou, for thy endeavors are true of heart and pure of soul. Stay true, and thou shall forever be deserving of support and gratitude! <3
>>43076913sorry it was a rough year. do you think the lack of card deliveries was just global mail shenanigans or bad faith actors signing up this year?
>>43077281>do you think the lack of card deliveries was just global mail shenanigans or bad faith actors signing up this year?>Send 200$ gift >Get 3 crusty stickersI'm fucking done.
>>43077281I saw two of my cardees post around the start of January admitting they never sent their cards, but were totally going to get around to it soon. I don't think it's necessarily bad faith actors so much as regular lazy/unmotivated Anons who realized there's no real consequence in the card exchange.
>>43077301well your fault for sending a gift in the card exchange>>43077303it hasn't been this bad ever before though, like sure one or two cards go missing but for so many people to straight up get nothing is depressing and curious
Yeah, I can't even send the back up cards, nothing can travel from France to this country.>>43063324I thought I replied to you mail?Oh well I'm running like a headless chicken now, so I have to find a solution, but I don't have much time.I will ponder your nice offer, but would bz more comfortable if my cardees agree with it first.And that's only for back up cards.I didn't received all the SBA, and half of them are too beat up to be sent again, I have to remake the boxes.And it's fucking march already, REEeeee!>>43077281Probably a mix of both, but mostly postal services. It was particularly bad this year.
>>43077195Thank (you) fren>>43077281Both, but I know from outside the event there were a lot of mail mishaps during the holiday season reported by other friends and family. I’m not sure what the excuse is from the postal service but OOF.
>>43077404CardSlut is alive again, so you could just reach out to them about it, to make sure everything stays on the up and up.>>43063324That goes for you, too
>>43076913i just hope you are okay my derg enjoying friend <3
>>43072320Okay that's it I'm jumping off the deck of the Yorktown >>43076444Yes there will be a horsemas this year>>43076913Thank goodness, happy to see you around friend.
>>43078098I cant believe kiwi is dead again
Hey guys, I know I'm a bit late but can I still sign up for the secret santa? I didn't thought of a good card idea until now
Giddyup Greasy, your gift is nearly complete! Hoping to ship sometime in the next few days here.
>>43076913Oh, glad to see you are back.Sorry to hear you had a rough time, I wish you things are all right now.May I send you a mail?>>43077458Yeah, I just saw this, thx.
>>43078479
>>43070269Alright, good newsThanks to such bad writing I was able to cheat the customs by adding decimal point and declaring it as tenth of a value, evading everything>>43070901If he did it that way I would be screwed. Glad he actually fucked up the writingIf everything goes well, I'll have my present at Friday
>>43079763What a wild rollercoaster
>>43078936>nearly complete >march 3what the buck are you doing, just contact each other by pisscord, email, telegram, matrix, etc
>>43079970?it's grinch rescue you fuckin retard i was told to post in the thread so here we are. kiwi has the mf's contact info and i intend to send him the tracking on the package as per the rules. however, again AS PER THE RULES, i'm posting in the thread for now.>discord>telegramoh, you're an offboarder and probably furry. carry on
>>43079956can't wait to see what it actually is
>>43080334can't wait to see more of cookie's teats
>>43080656they cant keep getting away with this
Bump from the warlock
>>43072294Well, closer to like 20' I think. Still needed to fit whatever this gift is kinda sideways to make sure the gift fit in the box though. Seems like the package is still on it's way safely. I did put some padding in there to keep the gift safe but I kinda wish I'd invested in packing peanuts or something too. Should just be the one main gift, which you'll see as you open the box, as well as the thing I bought you online, plus a letter and a couple other little things. I'll be out of the house starting tomorrow, and won't be back til Monday, so I likely won't be around the respond immediately when you post it, but I hope it puts a smile on your face. Happy Horsemas Ten Gallon Hat!
>>43081321On the other hoof, milk goes well with cookies
ALRIGHT ANONSAfter months of waiting, at one point even thinking I got grinched, I have finally received my gift. Lets go for Christmas in March!Lets start with the box decoration. I immediately seen the post office worker cringe when he was handing me that box, and even from the distance I could see why. Memes in my language? I was laughing my ass off the whole way home before I got to inspect it thoroughly. Fucking love the autism on the box and I love how every year someone manages to pull more hilarious decoration
>>43082289What is in the box, you might ask? A cool as fuck Applebottle. Would be waste if I poured anything but Applejack in that. Hope someone brings a bottle for /ehm/. Or it will have to wait for the cider season!
>>43082292Oh boy, I do wonder what is this. I mean I already do know, but hot damn that is something I haven't even thought of in a million years!
>>43082294But anyways, lets look for the smaller things first.Ah yes, aa horsefucker license - as if I needed one! Being unlicences horsefucker is way more fun anyways, right?Bunch of stickers, MF25 thingies which I sadly missed, two patches which are super neat, Luna lighter, another bit, and a little filly button with my daily schedule. Seems accurate!There is a book about Colorado which will be shown on another pic along with few more stickers
>>43082296I swear I am not even phone posting and the IMAGES KEEP FUCKING FLIPPINGFuck you hiroAnyways! This is what the thingie looks unwrapped. Holy shit! Look at this, this is so fucking awesomeI wonder what animal is the hide from, and mainly my concern is how to preserve it and put in display both, because this shit needs to be shown to everyone. This is absolute sick and now I understand why it took a while to finish! Fucking amazing work
>>43082299>forgot to attach a picWhy yes, I am a retard
>>43082300>>43082299Oh hey dubs on posts twice in a rowAnyways lets see this up close because hot damn this is epic
>>43082302
>>43082304Anyways, everything togeterThank you Analog Candle for all this insane manuscript, like hot damn this is fucking epic!I always love and enjoy the little things, have a large cork board where I put the stickers, pins and what not.It was well worth the wait! Hope to see you at MF or if you make it here for CZQ!
>>43078936Good stuff ignore the haters
>>43082307I'm glad to see you finally got your gift, Anon!
>>43082307>>43082304>>43082302>>43082300Did that nigga spend his time making his own paper to do calligraphy on? I admire the dedication to the craft.
>>43082574Isn't it a leather? Or what the fuck is the inner side of a hide called
>>43082608Fuck if I know. But whatever it is, it's fuckin' great. I'm happy for Blueberry Bounce.
>>43069946Whaaaaat? Tis a lie! Where did you find this picture?! delete this at once!! The special romantic moment that Cookie and I shared after burning Peanut is between the three of us!
>>43082289 >>43082292 >>43082304 >>43082307 Holy moly! What a wild ride but I am SO happy to see this! What an incredible and unique gift, Analog Candle put a whole lot of creativity and work into it and I can see why it took him so long! This is a great assortment, especially the hide, and I am glad to know Anon delivered in the end. I am very happy for you Blueberry Bounce!Analog Candle, I am sorry to have called you a grinch a few threads ago. I will not lie, it was disheartening to believe that the person I had made a gift for had grinched, but that was before we knew the full extent of the situation. While it is still true that this confusion could have been avoided by sending a small preview gift in December- I can see why you chose to send everything together as I imagine international shipping got pretty expensive.Hope you have a great 2026 Blueberry Bounce and Analog Candle!
>>43077404I did not get a reply email from you. Have Card Slut pass it on to Loving Light or I can give you a gmail address (or just send them over, you have my postal address).I understand you wanting to get permission from your cardees but I also doubt you're going to get that in a timely manner at this point.>>43079763>decimal pointlel, those aren't supposed to be in those fields so you got extra lucky. Good to see you work it out, though.
So what we're realizing is we should start this in September because of postal services?
Oh shit, Ten Gallon Hat, your gift is at your doorstep!!!!
>>43082966kekWouldn't that be fun?3 joly months, and still some tardees anyway because of postal service.That being said, this year, I will very likely send a quick and simple card as soon as I have the contacts, so I can work peacefully on the real deal.
>>43083499Wait what?? Oh shit im out of town right now! Oh god, I hope nobody opens the box without me!
>dragging this out of season shill thread up and down the catalog Cringe
Meanwhile, in Ten Gallon Hat's Bedroom>>43083940>>43083499
>>43083988The box is already open! the filly was snooping!>>43082133well that was the idea but then the green guys had to get weird about it
>>43084034Who gave Lil Fil a knife??
>>43084258im telling luna what your filly is dreaming about
>>43084278Would it not be more pertinent to inform her mother?
>>43084304Hey wait a second here...
>>43084333Prepare thy fillybits nonny
>>43084318I may have made a mistake with my suggestion to inform her mother..
Does this look like the face of mercy?
Continuation postponed until tomorrowReal post of the full gift from the lovely Butter Rum Bubbles to also come tomorrow.>>43083499Suffice it to say, I am stunned, awestruck and humbled by such a gift, I want to hold her close every night but am so afraid I'll get her dirty before our wedding dayButter Rum Bubbles, I can't ever promise you something that would make you smile as you did for you for me, but I am just so damn touched by this amazing gift, you are a beautiful soul, and I swear to take good care of her. I'm sorry I made her a filly fiddler in these posts though. Hope the baneposting and 1 gorrillion hours in Paint 3D even slight makes up for itMay your friend of a friend find their way to Equestria, or whatever paradise they sought in their life. I love you. I'll show you a good time at Mare Fair.
>>43084357>I'm sorry I made her a filly fiddler in these posts thoughIt doesn't count when it's anon, she deserves it and secretly enjoys it...You'll sleep good tonight with a new mare to cuddle, she's beautiful! Give her a boop for me :)
>>43084347>it was Anon's bid for escape that actually sealed her fate, in the end>Lyra had been about to try being more gentle with the seduction, or even give up entirely, but as she held Anon's hind hooves, she had a direct view underneath her tail>and despite what anon was saying, her fillyhood was winking back at her and dripping wet>that was all the confirmation Lyra really needed, as she grinned wider, and used her newfound size to drag the filly back towards the center of the bed, and underneath her too>Anon squeaked in protest, and yet, her hind legs were already spread when Lyra's new, drooling flare pressed snug against her fillyhood>"w-wait", she cried, followed by a pleasured "Ooohh CelestiaaaaaAahhh~..." as Lyra began to smoothly bury her cock inside of the filly"Oh, buck....">Lyra doesn't waste any time, thrusting all the way until her flare smooshes against the end of Anon's tunnel, before pulling back out to begin fucking her in earnest>Filling the room with the sound of wet, hurried plapping as she fucked the green filly senseless>Anon's protests disappear completely after a minute, replaced with only moans as she weakly pushes back against her mom's throbbing cock>Lyra can feel herself flaring, she's just not used to how tight Nonny is now!"S-Sooo tiiight...~">Lyra's widening flare, dragged back and forth through Anon's clenching fillyhood, sends the poor mare into a loud, messy orgasm as she coats her mom's balls with some of her juices>Lyra barely manages to keep thrusting through Nonny's orgasm, but the tightness is too much, and she rams her cock as deep as it could go, gasping as she feels something give way against her flare>Lyra's flare pops into Anon's womb, swelling further and wedging itself firmly against the green filly's soft inner walls>Her balls press snug against Anon's flanks, her sheath pinned snug to Anon's fillyhood>She realizes, with an aroused shudder, that even at this size, she's still managed to bury her full length inside of Anon>And unlike anon's teasing from before, this time she's helplessly cumming all over her cock...>Lyra manages to grind into Anon for a few moments, but the orgasm finally takes her, and her balls clench as she feels the cum rushing up her length>Both Lyra and Anon cry out as the first warm blast of cum floods the filly's womb, with enough force that it would be audible if not for their moans>Lyra humps against Anon as she rides out the orgasm, draining her balls into the orgasming filly as Anon helplessly cries out her name>Over, and over, "Lyyrraaaa~! M-Mommy....~!">Lyra leans down over Anon somewhat as the orgasm starts to wind down, and she hugs the filly close, panting hot breaths onto her neck as the blasts of cum grow weaker and come to a stop>Anon's is over too, her pussy isn't trying to milk her any longer, either, but Anon isn't able to speak yet>Lyra just giggles softly, and gives one of Anon's ears a gentle nibble"Love you, Nonny..."

>>43084333Post worthy of digits, finally.
>>43084333Huh, I don't remember shipping her with any additional 'accessories'...>>43084357But I'm very happy to see that she made it to you safely! I remember what an amazing day it was the first time I got a bigger Derpy plush, and how that feeling was even stronger when I got a life size plush, and I'm so glad to help someone else experience that same feeling. Once you start snuggling her at night you'll never want to go back. Would recommend investing in folex and a steam cleaner, especially if you wanna get a lifesize someday, that way you can easily clean her. I didn’t realize Lyra felt that way about fillies though... I can't believe I left her around my own Anonfillys all day...
>>43073467Frack Shack, I'm genuinely tearing up, seeing this in person and reading your message. Three and a half months, your entire holiday, working on her every single day through disaster after disaster... I can see every struggle in those wip photos, and then that final result. She's absolutely stunning. I'm so sorry you have to say goodbye to her so quickly after all that time together. Thank you for trusting me to take care of her, I promise I will!This means more to me than I could ever properly say. Thank you for not giving up. Thank you for delivering this beautiful wonderful gift. She's perfect.
Giddyup Greasy your package has been shipped! Sent the tracking info to Kiwi. Happy Horsemas!
>>43084333>>43084347>>43084401Well this went places I didn't expect, wew.
>>43084401Dear god, its getting sweaty in /ss/ this yearDoes this count for any of the bingo spaces?
>>43084843Damn, she is gorgeous indeed!Astonishing work!
>>43085131sweaty and messy...
>>43084843She arrived safe and sound! Very happy! Enjoy!!!She looks very awesome rotated slightly anti-clockwise, as seen in pic #38.Did you figure out the password like it's second nature or had to read the hint?Also I forgot to mention in the txt but do NOT use alcohol or any other cleaning agents to clean her! The paint and the varnish are acrylic and acrylic based respectively, so you should be able to wash her with water if needed. Run her gently under the tap and gently clean with a makeup brush, and don't scrub. An air blower should be enough for most situations.Those tissues under the wing can be removed just in case if you didn't realise.
>>43084843>I'm genuinely tearing upHoly fuck you are such a reddit faggot
>>43085866this is /mlp/ faggotwe embrace our emotions up in this bitch
>>43085873Positive emotions are for faggots and retards
>>43085881
>>43085895Shut up nigger
>>43085866>>43085881>>43085899
>>43084843With the lighting of this photo, I really thought this was a 3D model projected onto a real photoOnly seeing whats tucked under her wings did I realize that she's... I think a clay/ceramic sculpture(?) painted rather exquisitely.Anons of this board are so fantastic, man, it's unreal.
Whew, what a long day at work. Anyway, here's the pics of the full gift from your very own Butter Rum Bubbles (what a cute name)>>43084725Folex and a steam cleaner, got it. I definitely want to take her to Florida with me but worried about getting her dirty nevermind probably having to buy her her own plane seat... couldn't bear the thought of stuffing her in a luggage and having her smushed and tossed around like *cargo*Idk how so many anons manage to get their life sizes across states besides driving them (which sounds like such a fun roadtrip for the lil poners.)
>>43084843This is how I canon her to look like IRL now. This is incredible. What a thing to witness. I'm mega jelly.
Also the letter from Butter Rum Bubbles, if y'all would care to read that.I had no idea Lyra ran for mayor in the comics, so I can't wait to read that issue. I wonder what promises she will run on. What do you think?
>>43085881>>43085866YOU ARE A NIIIIIGGGEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR>>43085873WHAT HE SAID
Would it be disingenuous if I posted a plush I received in the current day without the process of when I originally opened it up?
Epilogue>>43084347
>>43084357heheh postPONEd
>>43086175Incredible. Got dressed up and everything. Kek.
>>43086178Oh this is just how dress at work at Alicornolics Anonymous, where we circlejerk about how Princess Twilight was the right move all along
>>43086185There is double the amount of semen than the last photo. Lyra gets busy.
>>43086186goddamnit, I didn't think any anon would nitpick that but you're right. I love me some excessive mare-cum.
>>43086190I choose to believe that Lyra and Anon went for a round two as he turns his back like that one Barnyard mailman gif
>>43086196unf but also kek
>>43084843Fantastic>>43086185>Alicornolics Anonymous, where we circlejerk about how Princess Twilight was the right move all alongholy based, how do I get in?
>>43086798Head to your local church, bow your head, and mutter seven Hail Mare-ys
>>43046624 aw, yay!>>43051939 aw, dammitI've been pretty busy the last few weeks so my apologies for the delayed reply. I truly am cursed.In all seriousness though, thank you for your attempt; I hope that your situation improves soon.
>>43087342Incredibly depressing to hear that a fellow marelover is struggling. I wish you a hasty recovery and I bless you, some day, with enough riches and vast wealth to buy all of us a personal lifesize of our ponyfu, if your heart desires.
It's over isn't it,Isn't it,Isnt it over?
>>43087839idk, are all the grinch rescues done with yet?
>>43088502I have a rescue box that I sent on its way and e-mailed my santee the tracking. Last update was one week ago, that it is being transported to the USA.Though if it arrives after this thread dies, I guess posts about it could also move to like /merch/ or similar.
>>43088566nice! glad to see the website isn't dead, I guessalso for a lid update, I am now at 1/4 intact and I can never take this fucking thing to work ever again because that's where they've all been broken!at least this one doesn't hamper functionality, but holy shit, there's just something inherently unlucky about a place with cluttered furniture and hard floors, I guess. fuck that place man, people keep stealing shit out of my trailer while I'm there too.bottle guy if you're reading this and shaking your head and thinking I am a dumbass you are probably right
>>43087839idkI still don't have any news from my santa.
>>43086185kekI need to buy a green morphsuit too.These photos were really nice, I enjoyed it!
HOLY HOLIDAY HYPE IVE BEEN GRACED
Sowbelly Shampoo, thank you so so much! This gift is perfect, it actually hits on all the things that bring me joy! I love comics, and here’s a comic of my favorite characters all meeting! I love trading cards, and here’s are some FLUTTERSHY ones including Kayou LSR Fluttershy which I have not yet been able to pull! Also, a Fluttershy Gundam kit?! The hype is real, I love putting these things together. And if this wasn’t already enough, a 4DE FLUTTERSHY WOWIE this is the one Fluttershy plush I don’t own! You really nailed this one, and I love you for it /) Happy Horsemas in March you amazing mare lover.
>>43089307>>43089301FUCK YEAH! I'm so happy to hear that! Glad I could bring you some holiday cheer. Happy Horsemas!!! /)
>>43089301Sweet wrapping paper, the cute unicorns even have socks, lewd!>>43089307And nice gifts too
>>43088502dare I hope for a doublegrinch rescue? Lel
>>43089307Can you post better photos of the comic?
>>43089938are you saying your grinch rescue grinched you?
>>43090140You should see their likes and requests for why
>>43090140Yes; first one feigned interest and then never posted again. Rescuer cancelled because finances>>43090271there were plenty of vanilla options on my list
>>43089979Oh for sure, I’ll do that when I get home today. It’s a fun one
>>43090271what was it
bump
the birds are returning...the temperatures climbing...the snow long melted...my power weakens, /ss/. before long i will once again be a ghost among you...
>>43092635You are going in the orange juice.
>>43092732what the fuck don't you dare
>>43092635My Cookie Kiln plush will always be with me, in my bed
>>43093337where's mine :(
>>43088650>also for a lid update, I am now at 1/4 intactFor fuck's sake cookie. I'll send one more set to you, assuming you're still at the same address. Please don't fucking break anymore.
>>43093786Next year ;)
>>43094213only if you're sure, I just needed something for a thread bump and my sad joke of a life decided to grant me one.I think part of the problem is that one of the first few drops dented the bottom, so it won't sit exactly flat anymore?(or it's because I'm retarded, which is the far more likely issue here)Moon would be so disappointed....
>>43094228no matter what I will be back, I just hope there still is an /ss/ next year
>>43094279I'm sure there will be, don't worry.You will be able to post your magnificent OC in cute image once again.You only have to wait 7 months.
>>43094279If there is I'll join again, if there isn't I'll be sending something to the return address on the box I got in this secret santa. After validating that that address is still correct of course.
>>43094248Cookie Kiln the dragonpony;>hot as fuck>huge teats>will bake you infinite free cookies>also comes with infinite milk>huge fucking nerd>Derpy-level clumsiness>dragon tail for stability in bed>weird long dragon tongueand I'm NOT supposed to want to breed an lineage of foals into her? you done fucked it cookie, and your OC is prime waifu bait. the moment someone draws a daki design of her, I'm sending that shit off to the aliexpress chinks and getting one printed for my bed ASAP. Now where's the group photo so I can circle all of the other mares I desire carnally?
>>43094799if we all just repeat what we did for 2025 what do the grinched people do
>>43095070we all know you'll circle everyone in that pic, anon
>>43095275But there's stallions in there... you're not suggesting Anonymous could be... GAY?
>>43095268I'm sure someone will take the torch.Heck, even if I'm derpy as hay, I would organise it if no one do it.Would it be the same?No it would be way simpler.But still, it would be.
>>43095070I know I said I wasnt gonna respond to these but what the flip anon>>43095563I think Kiwi is running the rest of 25's event but idk if they are up to doing '26...
>>43088502>are all the grinch rescues done with yet?No sadly, fuck I'm not even finished with my latecomers and I fucking hate it.>Thought, ya know i had a coupe hickups with my main santa, and i've got a job that pays enough to do this so fuck it, why not do latecommers and sign up for grinch rescue.>Constant print failure eating up multiple entire spools of filament because AMS prints are genuinely wasteful like that.>even with staff discount filament is expensive due to how much this fucking printer eats filament.>bills sideline most of my funds leaving practically nothing to spend on my gifts and when i do have some dosh, it's just keept failing with verry minimal actual print sucess rate which is even more fucking infuriating.>Only till like a couple weeks back did things normalize again including the prints reliability.To my latecommer santee >Swizzle Stick And my grinch rescue >Sowbelly ShampooI'm so genuinely sorry for things taking as long as they are, my printer (kobra 3) and live in general fucked me over quite a bit in regards to my ability get your guys gifts out in time.It fucking sucks on both sides but, I've still got your deets so please don't lose hope.Things on my side are good now, and thankfully the gifts are making good progress.I can also send much bigger packages so ontop of the goodies i mentioned before in earlier threads, I'll also include a bunch of foodstuffs as a personal apology for the lateness.
IWTCICK
>>43096365well shit bad bump timing>>43096364there's some ponies here who have the experience with that kind of thing, wonder if they'd be able to help
>>43096385Kek, its ok anon.It's not that I'm out of my depth or anything, its just that my printer was fucking out due to poor software and just needed A BUNCH of config changes.And also, the cherry of living paycheck-to-paycheck for a while doesn't help either.Thankfully both problems are resolved so im back in action working on the gifts as we speek.Just wanted to post an update explaining what's going on in my end.
>>43090851I’ll get around to this soon, I’ve been incredibly busy but it’s worth
>>43096721you got this, mr buck
>gift should arrive tomorrowthe suspense is killing me
>>43096364>>43096721No worries! I have faith in you, my friend. Thank you for the update!
>>43097593Sweet!You will probably be the last gift of 2025.
>>43097593Is it there yet
>>43098435>>43099141Proportions are a bit off, but they are cuties nonetheless!
>>43099448It's out for delivery. Anytime now. I skipped work because I'm so excited.
I have received a package. What could be inside? It's all the way from Germany.
First we got some lovely chocolate
Oh wow! A nice plushie! Always wanted one of these!
Another box inside
Awesome!
>>43100221
Chrysalis and rainbow dash like to watchThank you rowdy for your amazing gifts!
>>43100221>>43100236These brought a smile to my face, and I needed to smile today. Thank you and your santa both
>>43100220>>43100221Custom ceramics? That's unusual, nice!
>>43100220So happy that you liked the gift and that she made it undamaged! Maybe I went a bit overboard with padding material but I didn't want to risk anything.>>43100222Heh, you found the note. Thought it be funny to add some "secret" note in case you took apart the packaging far enough.These three are now quite spread out, Autumn Blaze with me, Spitfire with my santee from the main event and now Maud with you. Still a funny coincidence, how the day I could not yet paint Spitfire, decided to just start another pony for a rescue in case that might work as a rescue, I picked Maud and this actually ended up working out.>>43100069Meanwhile there was me at work frequently checking if the tracking had updated.Now I just need the backup letter to one of my cardees to arrive too.
>>43100867>Heh, you found the note.Yeah I went through everything thoroughly to make sure I didn't miss anything. Thank you very much I love everything.
>>43092274>bum
>>43100867That was one lucky call!Say, where did you learn how to make ceramics?Also, to have that glaze, do you have your own oven?
>>43102903well, for ceramics you call it a kilni wonder how ceramic woona is doing, my own first ceramic poner got broken so she's the only finished one of mine left at the moment(mine come from molds though, it looks like rowdy's are true custom)
im very sad its all ogre.... well see you all in 6-7 months when its time again. at least i got enough happiness to make it another year. its hard living my life and being 40. i love you all. merry christmas/hearthswarming/new year/ and all the other holidays it took to get here.-Fin
>>43102903There's a place near me that offers courses for various creative activities (painting, ceramics, sewing, wood carving, basket weaving, etc) across all age groups. So that makes it pretty easy to try out stuff even with no equipment. I did buy myself a bunch of modeling tools though. I did a lot of stuff there from like ages 7 to 14 and still have many boxes of ceramics from back in the day laying around. Eventually I kinda lost interest and also had less time due to school. Until around 2024, when I decided to do some ceramics again.So no I don't have my own kiln and for the glazes I mostly relied on the colors they had there. Though I did get some of my own recently to substitute in some areas, where their color selection is somewhat lacking. Next up I'll probably just do a bunch of color tests, to see how they turn out and since mixing glazes can be quite a gamble Yellow + white for Autumn Blazes coat worked quite well, while red + brown for her horn, made transparent. After that I want to make a Luna for myself.Or I could do this (>>43103112) and use "normal" paint after the fact that doesn't need to be burned itself. (Also nice woona)>one lucky call!My logic was something like:>go with characters from my own list>skip Luna, because I'd need more time than one standard session and it would be better to do the modeling for her at home, plus the available glaze colors aren't ideal here>Maud next would work with the available colors and doesn't have as complex of a design
>>43088502Mine from 2024 hasn't been attended to yet :(
>>43104424Glazes are like magic sometimes, they'll go on one color and come out something completely different
>>43105817Cute nerd pone!(She smells sometimes, but is always nice)
>>43105844smells good...
burying my face in moondancer's sweaty neet flanks (it's hearths warming and she would have been alone but i will be giving her loving and gentle plaps all night)also why is my church's IP range blocked due to abuse? yall need jesus
>>43106262She is a neet anon, the smell is probably far from light and floral.More like pugnant and musky.Flies dropping dead pugnant and musky.
>>43106698>yall need jesusSays the Anon hornyposting from church
>>43107066can you blame him
>>43107066Jesus is watching (you clop). Joke on him, that's my fetish.
>>43096364I think you may be the last one to go mr buck
After a long, LONG time between my work and customs, my gift finally arrives and I'll be able to open it! Let's see what presents my santa has to me.
>>43108511First of all, we have this cute litlle pony called Twiggy. I love so much olyfactory plushies so this mare I'm going to appreciate it until the end.don't compress images, they left upside down, buck!
>>43108515Ooo, what do we have here? A horse riding on the whipping snow of Sacramento? I love it!And a pack of cards with the best pony, she must not be missing here.
>>43108518What a wonderful pins I'm seeing, they're just adorable. It's really hard to find Gilda or Zecora pins nowadays, and even rare with that quality. These two needs to be shown off in my backpack rn.
>>43108520But my favorite gift is definitely this. Santa, I really need to know who is the artist behind this beautiful piece of art, it was you? Because just look at it! I'll going to frame this painting, this zeeb brings tons of snowpity, simply beautiful.
>>43108525Oh wow that's nice
>>43108525Lastly, I'll wrap up with le card. I didn't expect catbird being so spicy, but I love it, and your words makes me so jolly. Next season this platinum VIP numget will crown my christmas tree.
>>43108534Holiday Howdy, I can't thank you enough for your dedication. Not only with these amazing presents, but also with solve custom problems. Even if it's 2026 you keep communicating with me about the shipping process. I want to say, have a incredible year with lots and lots of mares, and I hope to see you in the next /ss/ (if they continue) without any grinch around. You're really the best!Also, so sorry if I'm not very active here, work has been consuming me these months and I hate it. I have to find another program to compress photos without getting reversed. Anyway, see you all until november dweebs, this was a fun event as always.
>>43108550Btw, Snowy Charm, if one day your letter arrives, please show it here or /merch/!
>>43108525Sweet!Hand painting is dope!
>>43108525such a beautiful zeeb :0>>43108515and twiggle! one of the plushies I myself lack!
I'm just waiting on one last Grinch Rescue and a latecomer and we're clear on my end. Still can't believe there are still regular gifts still arriving too that's wild.
>>43094762Any luck?
>the time is>umm...>11:48, March 17thWell this is perfect time to finally get a card!And this is cute, i really like getting something this unusual and hearthwarming. Rowdy-dow Ruckus, thank you so-so much!>>43104424This deserves (You). Oh, and second letter is at the post office already, i'd be able to pick it later today.Oh, and don't forget to check your email during following days, in case you're okay with keeping in touch with someone who alse started to draw because of /ss/ after twelve years in fandom.
>>43108525Whoever made this, please, please tell me you do commissions. I really really want one of my own.
Stirrup Trouble, turns out I may be able to put together a grinch rescue gift for ya afterall!Bad news is it may be a few days late. Maybe a week or two, as Im just now assembling it and shipping is still a fuck. If this thread is no longer up by then.. idk. Maybe post it in a final final thread? Maybe in the discord? Apologies that your /ss/ went this way, its been a brutal event for many but to be the last must be awful. Regardless, your gift is being put together as we speak!
>>43109869This will be my final bump of the day.
>>43110675>>43110979>grinch rescues in the middle of march>not letting this thread diecan’t you two faggots just keep in touch by email? There’s no point to keep this thread alive if it’s only two anons keeping in touch with each other >but muh anonymouse you have each others address retard
>>43110979>>43111675>still using pisscord>perfectly forgetful of what they tried to pull (and will pull later) when they got major backlash for it.nevermind my condolences to you normalfags, you migrate NOW, not when they do it, don’t make that mistake.
>>43111675but then i wont see cookie kiln again for months...
>>43110979>tfw there is still hopemighty kind of you if it happens! At this point have mostly just trying to quietly cope and not bring down the thread with sadfeels, heh. Your empathy shall not go unappreciated. if the thread dies I'll make sure my love gets posted in some form or another.>>43111680I've been ready to ditch shitcord since 2019, had other things in place for years. /ss/ matrix when?
>>43110675>16 weeksI completely expected that one to just be lost. Now I wonder if these two arriving so close to one another was just a coincidence or if sending the second with tracking somehow "unclogged" the first one from international mail limbo. No problem, I have that address alongside a bunch of others inside Thunderbird, so I'd notice anything sent there too.Sorry for making you take trip to the post office on the second one, when sending it with tracking I didn't know I had to specify whether it should just be dropped of at the address or if it should be given out in person, that might have defaulted it to the latter.Also: I'M FREE>gift to my santee delivered>managed to get all my cardees a card>rescue gift got delivered>100% success on sendingStill gonna check the thread occasionally, but unless one of the other two cards still makes it. I'm gonna treat the Secret Santa 2025 as completed on my end.
>>43108550Happy belated Horsemas! I'm so glad you like the painting. Zecora is a pretty zeeb. Again, I profusely for the delay, but thankfully customs wasn't strong enough to defeat the power of holiday cheer and horse autism.
>>43111882Congrats!It's always great when everything went as planned and you are happy with what you did.
>>43111882And its here! Thank you, now i gotta figure out where to place 'em and how can i keep them opened.
>>43111675Bruh, this isn't even the grinch resque, this is literally card exchange, shit took 4 months to get here.
>>43111675Not our fault if postal services are ubershit this year...
>>43111665Another
>>43111694nyehehehe you'll probably give me a (you) or two between now and next time and you'll never even know
>>43114646you're five days early, twiggle, but... thank you. <3
>>43114646hehe a cutie
>>43110675>>43112983These pop up cards are really nice.I always forget they exist when I plan for my cards, I should leave me a note for this year.
>>43085834Hey Frack Shack, I know it's been a minute, life got crazy these past two weeks, but I'm still absolutely blown away by your gift, still feels unreal after everything that went on! I put her in a spot where I can see her every day, thank you again for everything you put into this!And yeah password was basically second nature at this point, twasn't a challenge at all lmao 0c0 Appreciate the cleaning tips too, want to make sure she stays looking exactly like this!
>>43115945That's such a beautiful rainbow
>>43117076Hehe, I like when they draw ponies like cats.The mischievously cute acting suits them right I think.
>>43115945Tjat statue is so great, really good job!
>>43119314Bother please stop bumping it's almost April
>>43119314>>43119327Dont stop, because i got another card! And, i guess, im not alone in getting those so late.
>>43119715Oh shit, the postal service really is slow!Happy very late horsemas, anon!
I wonder if I've been like the only one to opt-out of receiving from mass mailers.
Bumping this thread
Merry Springmas!
test
I guess staying awake for 48 hours will result in sleeping for another 24 hourskinda wildmy head hurts
>>43121970you will (probably, if I have time) become three dimensional before /ss/ 2026I will not elaborate and I will not be participating either
I'm very much out of the loop. How did grinch rescue go? Is everyone good now?
>>43123111I'm not technically a grinch, but I didn't have news from my santa since a month and a half
>>43123111one last rescue to square away from what ive heard
>>43123111Still taking 100 years to complete my assignment, please hold
>>43124031STOP PLEASE JUST LET IT DIE
Thank you Kiwi for being my rescue Santa this season! I loved all my gifts and it was a great surprise to receive everything right before Pone Voyage. The candy you included is not pictured since most of it was eaten during the trip. I love the pressed pennies and the postcards and appreciate the time and energy it must have taken to collect all of them! The stickers are very cute and some of them area already on my water bottle, so they are not included in the picture. The little filly lives on my night stand and I just discovered today that she glows in the dark. I absolutely love all my gifts so much!! Thank you again!
>>43124229I forgot to include my name!!
>>43124229So I'm guessing this was the last one we were waiting for.
>>43124459HOLD IT!>>43096364

>>43130083does she taste like ice cream? do you taste like cookie dough? clearly I need to test these theories with my tongue
>>43084249>>43084304what I wouldn't give to wake up one day and discover that my mare is twice the size she used to be
>>43130083God. You're fucking cute. I want to fuck you so badly.
>>43131438>>43131438Yeah kinda, her mane tastes like the relevant colour (Pink is strawberry etc), and if you use your tongue between her legs you'll find she's quite sweet tasting!
>>43132199She's very open (you can fuck her all you want)
>>43132287no dont encourage them
>>43132482awww why not?
>>43130083Cute, I'm melting!
>>43132287Ok, you've convinced me. We'll stay up all night fucking and not a minute less.
>>43133062You can use her ice creams for stamina, just remember to not get brain freeze! That would probably pause the fucking for a minute or two

Celestia be my witness, in a dozen days, I will embark in a 1200Km journey to try to post my freaking cards not from one, but from two different countries.I won't take no as an answer to spread joy.No need to keep the thread bumping for me, when the cards and SBA arrive, just post them in the merch thread.If I make a thread to post about my journey, I will put a link.And if some anons want to have a coffee, well, I never meet other anons, but, heck, why not, you have my mail.Sincerely yours,Fluffy Feathers (whom lost his mind three months ago)
>>43143092Just as a warning, when I sent something from Germany to the USA in late February, I got to find out that the USA had just increased the requirements for shipping, this lead to a post office worker having to copy all the information from the paper customs decleration into some online form. Took like 15 to 20 minutes to get all this sorted out.So if you've got several boxes to send, expect that it could take a while. Probably not as big of a deal compared to the whole trip, but be prepared for it or look into how you can do this online yourself.
>>43144150Oh, thanks for the tip, I will have a look at that.I still need to clean up some boxes, so I have time, but, yes, that's a good tip.I also send plain old cards in parallel, so I hope at leas one will reach it's destination.I'm not ready for the next step of buying a plane ticket to the US...
>>43143092>>43144150>>43144750I’m so disappointed as to how retarded shipping requirements are between the US and Canada>perfume is instantly declared a hazardous flammable material the moment it contains alcohol and requires hazmat paperwork, perfume is not part of the personal gift exemption(s) because ???, even if it is a small volume. >cannot ship hermetically/factory sealed packaged food because preserved beef falls under commercial shipping rules where you need to ship a entire pallet, then have a customs agent inspect it when it arrives at its destination address. You can only carry beef jerky in if you take a plane flight to the destination country and even then there’s limits. >Even if you comply with all the paperwork and rules, customs might just seize the package because they’re niggers. >quote of ~$250 USD for a package containing Snowpity soap, two perfume vials, a plush, and other merch, with up to 200% duty for the Canadian recipient, with potential for the package to be seized because ???. >can’t fly the package has to be ground based shipping. It makes me wonder why nobody has decided to either A: run their own shipping businessor B: not have these retarded rules which make personal shipping impossible I’m guessing the answer is bureaucracy and insurance Jews ruining everything.
>>43144808>food related BS.This is more or less agricultural protectionism which is reciprocal. The US has the same rules if you want to like, gift ramen from abroad.>No anon, it's commercial import if you send it over and the spice pack says meat flavor so it might contain African swine fever, so into the incinerator it goes.>own shipping businessIt's so annoying to deal with this that it dealing with the paperwork and getting certificates for free means you run out of money during the first month, or you get reamed by the glowies for smuggling.>retarded rules regarding "hazardous material"insurance jews, yeah...
>>43144808>>43144873Can't agree more with you...
>>43144808>>43144873And the impossibility to send chocolate some year but not others.It's a mess.
>>43144750If you're sending from Germany, please definitely use the online form, especially to the US. It'll reduce the chance of making mistakes that'll get it sent back, like fucking up the address (or having it be unreadable), not adding a country of origin for every good, etc.My offer to help you still stands.>>43144808>>43144873Throwing away spices for meat flavour is stupid, but otherwise stuff like beef/dairy/eggs has special rules to limit the spread of livestock diseases that are found on some continents but not others and the only way you get on top of that is a policy of no exceptions for stuff that isn't professionally checked and approved by someone you can sue to hell and back if they fuck up unfortunately.
Sad bump
>>43146219Don't be sad Anon, the cheer will come back in due time.
>>43061608I'm starting to think you might be right anon
A shipment has arrived, there are now three intact lids, three broken lids, and a somewhat bruised moon bottle, I will have to update later this year and by update I mean confirm that I didn't break any more otherwise that guy is going to rightfully come to my house and break the bottle itself over my head (deserved).However my otherworldly level of clumsy has thankfully not resulted in glass moony being in danger because I'd have to somehow knock over an entire piano for that to happen. I'm really glad we figured out the dome thing, it's much easier to dust off than trying to somehow get the feather duster not to get stuck on moon.
>>43146986What a sick water bottle!
>>43147483it's been through a lot since 2024
the fuck are these captchas man
Fuck it, secret santa all throughout the year
Let this shit die
>>43148748Not until I see my card being posted. I don't wanna believe the little gift I put into it is lost to the postal void forever.
>>43149061bump for the card
>>43149061what was it?
>>43149694Bump man
