    Hey MiracleDinner, I have good news. It looks like a seventh season of Gumball IS coming out, but we will have to wait a while. It's coming somewhere between late 2025, and early 2026. Probably the former, but we'll see. So, yeah. It'll probably come out sometime towards the end of this year or at the beginning of next year.

    Oh yeah, one other good thing-apparently the show isn't as "hated" as I thought. Opinions of it are divided. A lot of people like it, and there's also a lot of criticism of it. But I don't think it's a bad show, and I'm glad not EVERYONE hates it and it actually has a lot of fans.

    Cooked up this miraculous sandwich for dinner yesterday

    @Chowder The sandwich fillings are vegan mayonnaise (Hellman's), Vegan cheese (Violife), Sliced Tomatoes, and Vegan "chicken" slices (Quorn), plus a light seasoning of salt and pepper.

    Looks good! What is the dark spot on the bread slice?

    @?Block If you are referring to the first image, that's the shadow of my phone from me taking the photo (sorry I am bad at photography lol)

    If you are referring to the second image, that's just parts of the bread being a darkened because I cooked the sandwich by frying it in plant butter.

    Well I've started watching my Adventure Time DVDs and I'm very much having fun and loving the nostalgia so far! Tonight I watched the first 4 episodes of season 1; Slumber Party Panic, Trouble in Lumpy Space, Prisoners of Love, and Tree Trunks I think they were all great!
    Princess Zatanna
    It's Adventure Time! I just found a brand new DVD box set for all seasons of Adventure Time for a really good price! This is going to take me a while to watch through all the episodes (~280 x ~10 minutes = 2800 minutes = almost 48 hours, or very approximately the equivalent of around 5 seasons of MLP:FiM, but it's going to be super fun and extremely nostalgic! Plus, now I can finally get to watch the show in order which means it will make way more sense than when I watched random episodes on TV here and there as a kid, since AT is a continuity focused show unlike something like Teen Titans Go. I'm excited for this adventure a lot!

    Also I just found out that this DVD collection DOES include the "Stakes" mini series, which I hadn't previously thought was the case. That's great as it was one of my favourite and most nostalgic parts of the show from when I watched it on Halloween 2016!

    I tasted coconut milk for the first time today, and to be honest, I'm really not a fan. Out of all the plant milks I've tried so far, this one's my least favourite.

    @Knuckles The Echidna I disliked the taste of coconut milk enough that I don't think I'd use it for ANYTHING, not just straight up drinking - and its taste is quite strong so I'd imagine I would get that taste if I had it in cereal.

    I like oat milk as well but also feel that oat is a bit overhyped, like I think it's good, but it seems to be WAY more popular than the others right now based on my anecdotal experience, when in my opinion it's not my favourite - my favourite is soya milk - and there are some other plant milks that are great as well and don't deserved to be so overshadowed by oat milk.

    Anyway, and perhaps more imporantly, PLEASE Knuckles take care to ensure that the oat milk you are buying is certified gluten-free, because most products containing oats are by default not gluten-free due to a risk of cross-contamination with gluten in harvesting, processing, etc. This is one of if not the biggest reasons that oat milk is not my favourite plant milk and it's an issue I wish people would recognise more than they do, I've even known some gluten-free friends who have gotten ill by drinking oat milk because they didn't realise it had gluten in it. Even if you aren't feeling unwell it's always worth making sure that your oat milk is certified gluten-free.

    @Princess Zatanna Oh it totally is; my mom made sure of it and it says "Gluten Free" on the carton.

    By the way I just started a really humorous private conversation with you about something funny.

    Hey Princess Zatanna want to see something hilarious? The YouTube channel "GameOverContinue" made a compilation of all the funny "Game Over" screens for Totally Spies on Game Boy Advance. Do you want me to send you them? You'll likely laugh if you like that sort of thing, but then again if you don't like seeing your favorite characters getting defeated even in a game you might not want to watch and that's ok.

    Rest in peace to Gene Hackman and his wife and his dog. I always liked Gene's performance as Lex Luthor in Superman (1978) and its sequel, and I loved how they referenced him by name in Teen Titans Go to the Movies. I'm glad Gene got to live to a good age of 95 at least.

    Yeah, it's really unfortunate that the three of them died so sudden and that Hollywood has lost a legend with Gene's passing. I do agree that reaching the age of 95 is quite the achievement though, and I hope that his legacy will continue to aspire future generations of actors, actresses, and other performers alike.

    Hi friends, just wanted to give some updates to how my 22nd birthday went and also wanted to thank everyone who wished me a Happy Birthday today. I'm honoured to have received so many good wishes and I appreciate you folks all so much. I know I've said it before, but this community means a lot to me, and I really enjoy my friendships with you.

    So updates about my birthday:
    • For breakfast I had orange juice, oat latte, oat chocolate milk, and a Lotus Biscoff Bagel.
    • I rewatched "Happy Birthday Zee" for the second time which was quite fun, it's not quite my favourite Zatanna episode in DCSHG but it is still pretty good and it definitely fits today! I also submitted the song in it to Marioboards Year of Music which I'm glad I got to do on my birthday!
    • I did have an exam in the morning unfortunately, but I got 100% and didn't have any work after that, so that's great!
    • I watched TTG&DCSHG: Mayhem in the Multiverse which is now my new favourite movie of all time, see my post for more details.
    • For lunch I had homemade pizza with vegan cheese (Violife again, like my Christmas Pizza) it was actually a fair bit of work since I didn't have time for it to rise and also made dough for only 1 pizza whereas I usually do 2, so it was a bit of trial and error but it was delicious - if very filling - in the end!
    • I got a little bit bored/lonely in the afternoon because my parents and siblings weren't at home until the evening, but I did keep myself busy writing my glowing review of Mayhem in the Multiverse!
    • For afternoon snack I had an oat chocolate milkshake which tasted very nice and was excellent value at only £1.50 at the Co-Op
    • I rewatched Pinkie Pride for the first time in probably 1-2 years with my mother, which was lots of fun. I forgot how much I love this episode and its songs.
    • I also kept up my 4 year running tradition of rewatching the MLP "Happy Birthday to You" short, this time I also tried the German dub which was good too.
    • For dinner I had a steak (soy-protein based, don't worry I haven't given up being vegan!) and chips with brocolli. The steak was really delicious if expensive, easily the best steak I've had since going vegan and possibly even before.
    • My cake was a vegan chocolate cake which was delicious, and we had gluten-free muffins too so that nobody was left out.
    • My presents were:
      • I am Nut Okay high-end artisanal vegan cheeses based on cashew nuts, which I haven't eaten yet but am super excited too.
      • The Lego Movie 2 DVD which I saw on my 18th birthday on rent and haven't rewatched since, so it's great I can now rewatch it whenever I want and will definitely do so this weekend.
      • New shoes
      • A DCSHG comic book, unfortunately it is G1 not G2 I guess my family didn't understand the difference and that it's only G2 I'm a fan of, but I'm still looking forward to reading it and I may still enjoy it a lot, as I still haven't actually tried G1 before.
      • A new speaker for my PC.
    • As I now only have 1 hour left before my birthday ends, I will go get myself a hot chocolate and read Ever After High books until after midnight, then I'll go to sleep. But don't worry, I've taken Friday and the weekend off too, so the celebration shall go on!

    Overall I'd say my 22nd birthday went amazingly and was my 2nd best birthday ever, but it doesn't quite beat my 18th on account of 1) having to sit a stressful exam even if it did go well in the end and 2) being bored/lonely in the afternoon before I got to spend time with family.

    Good night everyone, and thank you all once again for making my 22nd birthday a happier day!

    Hey Zatanna I don't know if I ever talked to you about this, but I was disappointed with "Lightyear" for one reason-they completely strayed from the original lore. Heck, bronies and pegasisters were beating up on MLP G5 for it "destroying" the lore and I honestly personally never cared much about that, but with "Lightyear", it disappointed me because since they set it in a completely different universe and didn't at all conform to the original story as talked about in Toy Story and Toy Story 2 and seen in the "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" series I grew up with, it just didn't feel like a Toy Story movie at all. With that, I was actually really disappointed the original lore was just thrown out the window, something that surprised even me (that I would be upset about that). Like, Buzz Lightyear decided to keep JUST his team as the one force defending the galaxy unlike in the original lore when he had a whole team of Space Rangers aboard the Star Command space station deployed all throughout the galaxy so it wasn't just him and his friends, and on top of that, Zurg wasn't Buzz Lightyear's evil father-he was just some villain that left his robotic suit and his robots and stuff floating in space aboard a sinister space station or a spaceship (I can't remember which), and the villain was a Space Ranger that turned bad instead and donned that armor. That-made no sense to me.

    Hi Miles, I've seen Lightyear before and while I moderately enjoyed it I definitely respect and understand your opinion. I personally saw it as a non-canon spinoff to Toy Story so I wasn't hugely bothered by the inconsistencies in the lore as I saw it more as its own thing. But if it had been closer to the Toy Story movies I likely would've enjoyed it a lot more, yes. I don't think Zurg was ever *actually* Buzz's dad though, I just took that as a reference to Star Wars. It's been a few years since I saw Lightyear so my memory of it is a little rusty tbh.

    @Zatanna If you have Disney+ you should definitely watch "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command". It's awesome. Believe me. Oh my God I grew up with that show! Love that show.

    Thanks for bringing this to my attention, and the Green Lantern one sounds especially interesting, but I'm not going to get my hopes up just yet since these may never be finished and released and even if they do there's a chance I might not like them even if they do involve two of my favourite heroines. I think I'll just have to "watch this space" - pun intended.
    Knuckles The Echidna
    You know Zatanna, Generation Five is ok and all, but the only thing I don't like about it is the fact that all of the characters except Twilight and Cadance and Spike (because the three of them are species that live thousands of years) are dead, including Rainbow Dash who was my favorite G4 pony besides Twilight and Applejack. 😢🪦

    Like seriously I wish Hasbro hadn't done that. It's so incredibly sad. I bet a lot of other fans are bummed out by that too. Luke Skywalker's reaction to Obi Wan Kenobi's death in A New Hope here is how I reacted personally to knowing most of the FIM characters were gone.



    I guess Rainbow Dash and Rarity and Pinkie Pie and Applejack and Fluttershy are all watching over Equestria from Heaven now. ☁️ :(

    @Zatanna You made a typo, I think you meant to say "G4" rather than "G5" and you also accidentally said "G6" instead of "G5" when G6 is the next gen after G5 that's coming up soon, but it's not like it matters. Yeah-death is unfortunately a part of life and it's painful but we always eventually get through it, although we will probably have a hole in our heart said lost persons would be the only ones who could fill it for the rest of our life. We'll move on and heal, but we'll still always miss those people. Nobody will ever be able to replace them.

    But yeah anyway current gen right now is Gen 5 (G5)-Gen 6 (G6) is the generation that's coming up I think in 2026, actually. It looks like G6 is going to be a reboot of G4 which is great because I always like to see more G4, as much as I like G5 (despite its flaws). As far as almost all the characters from FIM being dead as of G5, I really wish Hasbro had just made G5 a separate generation rather than a continuation (many centuries later) of G4. Oh well.

    Sorry yeah I muddled that up, will edit my post now.

    Anyway yeah, I really wish Hasbro had made G5 a separate generation from G4 rather than connected to it because then we wouldn't have lost so many of the FIM characters we liked.

    I saw these Peach and Luigi themed Pringles in my local supermarket (I live in the UK) which was cool to see, but for some reason they put lactose in them when the Salt and Vinegar (Peach) one would've been vegan if it weren't for that. So unfortunately, I can't have either of them. 🙁

    Well, tonight's the last night of my very long and very lovely winter holidays. It's been wonderful to have time to relax and spend time with family, and enjoying lots of things I'm passionate about, such as reading my Ever After High books. I'm optimistic that I'm going to have a great time this term, living life to its fullest is so important and I'm so happy that that's what I'm doing now.
