You're obsessed with the rotting bloated corpse. It's like your Jungkook. Embarassing!

[quasi-normalcy]

So...how much of the bad discourse surrounding Steven Universe is just because people were really hoping that the Gems would beat up Andy DeMayo in "Gem Harvest"?

[quasi-normalcy]

I was astonished to learn that there was controversy around this episode, because I felt like it was just kind of a normal children's cartoon about getting along with difficult relatives; and then I looked it up and learned that it had the extremely inauspicious timing of airing right after Trump's 2016 victory, and, yeah, okay, I can understand why a children's fantasy about reconciling with your obnoxious conservative relatives and getting them to accept your alternate family structure would play rather poorly at the time.

[quasi-normalcy]

I think that Rebecca Sugar probably assumed, like most of the world that wasn't my specific flavour of extremely online in 2016, that Clinton would crush Trump and that this episode would maybe help to smooth over divisions; but of course what ended up happening is that an episode about how you should be empathetic towards your bigoted relatives ended up airing just as your bigoted relatives were going around victoriously hate-criming people in the street.

[quasi-normalcy]

Watching it now, though, it ends up feeling wistful more than anything. Like, yeah, sure, it doesn't work like that, and we all know that now...But wouldn't it be nice if it did? It feels like a pleasant dream.

Steven Universe is fundamentally a power fantasy—but the fantasy is being able to get through to people and heal things. The power is love instead of strength.

"Like, yeah, sure, it doesn't work like that, and we all know that now...But wouldn't it be nice if it did?" Yeah....

really crazy to show up at your not really step brother’s wedding after being estranged due to being in prison and him also impregnating your wife, give him permission to get married to that guy whose face you smashed in decades earlier because he’s crazy and needs that apparently, and then not only kill him but also hump all over him and get jizz on his wedding kilt. and then just fucking die right there

grace wakes up out of his coma and immediately puts on a skirt and starts exclusively going by his very feminine last name. he said if i’m stranded alone in space i’m gonna have some fun with gender.

[puppetstuffing]

[tamamowand]

QUITE the statement to be nuking transfems at the current accelerated pace right at the start of pride month like this, isn't it

[tlirsgender]

The way tboy mras use "bioessentialist" to mean "criticizing men whatsoever" is crazy. Like when nobody said this was biologically determined. In fact You are doing some Man Shit right now. Assuming you aren't included in this sentiment & implicitly calling (usually trans!) women terfs for Basic Feminist Takes is telling on yourself more than them

[tlirsgender]

Don't you know ? Bioessentialism is when you criticize men for the way they choose to behave at a societal level, and Not using your ~afab~ status to talk over and down to Actual Women, duhhhhhh!
