Grim Needs to Take a Nap

*screms into the void like a creature.* Sup. Welcome to the blog. I like scribbling fandom and OC stuff, and do comms as well.

bringing this over from twitter bc this person literally gets it. watching su for the first time i was literally shocked by how wonderfully toxic the yuri was there. thank you women 🙏

[boiledegghole]

THANK YOU WOMEN. god bles

Hyperbonkers Toxically Yuri basically drives the entire show. Pearl/Rose is 60% of Steven's Issues; the first big event episode climaxes with a paean to the power of nontoxic yuri but then ends with other characters EXTREMELY MISSING THE POINT to the point they emit nightmares; there's a whole arc about Pearl repeatedly tricking her friends into a threesome; the movie is the vengeance of a dumped manic pixie clowngirl; and the Diamonds (WD in particular) definitely have some kind of oneesama shit going on.

Pearl/Rose is enough toxic yuri (I will create a new identity for you! I will compel you to keep our secret forever! I will fuck around on you but don't worry I'll always come back to you until haha I kill myself and leave you the baby to raise!!!!!!!!!) for six shows. But it's not a show about emotionally healthy people doing healthy things! Steven repeatedly tries to kill himself!

[bigscaryd]

I also want to point out the het stuff is similarly deranged. Lars/Sophie is "what if the chubby girl fixated on the bad boy who impliedly fucks her on the sly (!!!!!) but is embarrassed to be seen with her and got so frustrated she made a big-deal punk band about it (so she's completely over him when he gets a glow up to UNDEAD CAPTAIN HARLOCK(!!!))" Greg breaks up a 5000 year toxic Yuri situationship by being the scrungliest hair metal guy in history. Steven gets a somewhat-requited crush and Pearl immediately projects her "what if I was a knight and I was willing to put my life on the line for you and it was kind of sexual" deal on to them so hard she creates a child soldier. Then Steven, to prove he's NOT his mom, tries to die for her without letting her die with him and she's so mad about not being allowed to die with him they break up for a bit.

Frankly the sheer density of characters eager to die for each other is somewhat alarming.

all of this of course forgetting the one "Stable" relationship is two small lesbians who are so attached at the hip they literally fused into one person, and have their own princess/knight dynamic [wow the diamonds sure love that one, wonder what thats about] and any time they have a MINOR disagreement about a major problem they usually cope by literally exploding apart, doing a shit ton of property damage, and then tearfully fusing right back together again, which is gorgeously juxtaposed by the fact that they can literally see the branching timelines of the future and so can TELL that there is literally no reality where this doesnt happen if they're fucking paying attention. which they usually arent. because they're too busy focusing on keeping steven alive

Tbh I think fandom generally needs to get better at sitting with the uncomfortable fact that a story/fanwork/meme/whatever can hurt one person and help another

[sensicalabsurdities]

This is why I think “tag warning” culture is kinder and more constructive than cancel culture / “no problematic content” culture. One size does not fit all, but if we learn to be more aware of the fact that the same thing can be emotionally validating or cathartic to one person and upsetting to another, and pick up a general mindset of thinking before we post, “what might people need a heads up for in this content?”, we grow more compassionate, more thoughtful, and more understanding of the differences in people’s experiences.

If you're thinking about moving on from Spotify, I can't recommend enough getting into modern MP3 players (more properly called digital audio players, or DAPs, since they play more filetypes than just MP3) and building your own music library.

There's been a massive amount of innovation in the lower end of DAPs, and you can get a lot for under $100. Here are the main ones I recommend:

Snowsky Echo Mini - This is the most affordable one, at only $65 CAD (I think it's even less in the US) and the one that I ended up buying. Designed to look like a cassette player. The main drawback is that the interface is slightly unintuitive and it doesn't have a touch screen, but I've been delighted with mine.

Hiby R1 - This goes for $85 USD, and is the most widely recommended of the bunch for its good UI and wide range of utilities. Has a touchscreen and buttons.

Tempotec V1 - Similar to the Hiby R1, although the specific features are slightly different. Also has a touchscreen and buttons.

Innioasis R1 (honourable mention) - Designed to look nearly identical to an iPod Classic, including a fully functional clickwheel The sound quality on this is notably worse than the other DAPs I listed above, and the Bluetooth is widely reported to be unreliable, but I have to include it for people who desperately want an iPod again (and don't want to shell out $300+ for a modernized Classic) and because it has an extremely active modding scene.

You will need to buy a microSD card to upgrade the storage of most of these, although these days you can get 250GB for under $20.
