happy new year

i did not care for the stranger things finale

[opinionsaremagic]

my friend and i were just talking about the Cheat Commandos and i thought up some new Homestar Runner headcanons

The brothers strong watched the Cheat Commandos show growing up

That's why they buy Cheat Commandos Os cereal and have the action figures

Homestar also watched the Cheat Commandos show growing up. Nowadays he and Strong Bad play with their action figures/rewatch their favorite episodes from time to time

Strong Bad thought that Cheats were so cool that he wanted his own pet Cheat

And he eventually got one after meeting Homestar (as seen in sbemail 100)

I also think that after Strong Bad took The Cheat home he wanted to name him some awesome name like Shredder or Bonez

But Strong Mad couldn't remember any of those names and he just kept calling him The Cheat, so it just stuck

It's the equivalent of naming your pet dog "The Dog" or your cat "The Cat"

that's it... buy all our playsets and toys

to me american history reads like warrior cats

Revolutionary war + Washington presidency: The Prophecies Begin

george washington = firestar. everyone glazes them

the revolutionary war and the first few years afterward were iconic, the epitome of american history... the first arc is the epitome of warrior cats.

Also when you take the time to dissect the first arc, it's MESSY. So is the politics of Jefferson and Hamilton during this time

Jeffersonian era and onward: New Prophecy.

Some familiar faces from last arc. Expanding west in US History = Traveling books in Warrior Cats.

Andrew jackson sucked. So did Brambleclaw

Civil War era: the Power of Three

Everyone has a lot of different opinions on the things that happened during the Civil War (eg, some states say it was about states rights). Lots of people have lots of opinions on Power of Three (eg, should Hollyleaf have been the third cat)

Post-Civil War: the first half of Omen of the Stars.

Not a lot of super relevant stuff happens

I couldn't tell you the plot of the first two books or what happened in America at this time

WWII: The second half of Omen of the Stars

Simply because of The Great Battle

And just... the vibes alone.

The Cold War: A Vision of Shadows

Soviet Union were the USA's opps. The Kin was the clans' opps.

Again, I couldn't tell you most of what happens from either of these

During the Cold War era, a lot of pop culture stuff was happening, like Elvis and the Beatles

2017-2018 was when AVOS released and also when a lot of culturally relevant Warriors MAPS released

Aaaand that brings us to The Broken Code, the modern era.

The outdatedness of some US laws are catching up to us. The outdatedness of the Warrior code caught up to the cats

Also, Orange Man reminds me of the Impostor.

The future lies within A Starless Clan and the Elders' Quest, both of which I've not read yet

so yeah if anyone would like to add to this idea please do

after watching episode 6 of the amazing digital circus that stupid jax x pomni song with the marriage thumbnail won't leave my mind

i've... never... actually... seen... scott... pilgrim...

but this poster is cool as fuck, and i wanted to draw some rainbow dash. this took like. an hour and a half. inspired by ⬇️

I rewatched the "Shadow Play" episodes of MLP today and OH MY GOODNESS. I cannot STAND Starswirl the Bearded. Why does he think he's the shit,, he's a washed up old man who can't handle that Twilight is more successful than him. She literally became a PRINCESS by FIXING one of HIS screwed-up spells. I get that he was worried about the Pony of Shadows, but all of the other Pillars were really nice to the Mane 6 despite the looming threat (ESPECIALLY mage meadowbrook, she's such a sweetheart) so Starswirl doesn't really have an excuse aside from "not being good at friendship", which is bullshit because you can be solitary without being an asshole. Twi deserves so much better, and I was SO happy when her friends stood up for her (Rainbow especially is never afraid to call people out and that's reason number 123 that she's my favorite)

Also, let's not forget that by immediately assuming Stygian was evil and casting him out of his Pillar group, he put the lives of not only himself, but THE OTHER PILLARS in danger; then later, in LITERAL limbo. And whenever Starlight brought up Stygian, he was SO mean about it?? Dude... you used to know him. You're shit-talking the guy who brought your hero group together. At least the other pillars acknowledged the good he did before he turned to revenge.

Yes, I know he comes to respect Twilight and Stygian by the end of the episode. But he still annoys me in all his other appearances. Friendship University especially pissed me off, surely someone as wise as he claims to be can see that he's being manipulated by con artists? You don't have to be good at friendship to know that.

anti starswirl the bearded club!! i'm afraid i hate him more than the villains 😭

guys look i made tiffany truffula from my "rewatching ever after high because my ex ruined it for me" series on a knockoff doll creator app, i wish there were different body types on that site so she could be shorter, and also so her two different color eyes could be an option? anyway rip ever after high i miss you already

[opinionsaremagic]

strong mad makes me happy in trying times

[opinionsaremagic]

one thing about me is that i HATE jeff x annie on community because annie is the disaster burnt out gifted kid representation i need and putting her with a grown ass man is evil

[opinionsaremagic]

rewatching ever after high because my evil ex ruined it for me

Part Seventeen: Final Destiny-tion

Guys

This is the final (official) installment of Rewatching Ever After High Because My Evil Ex Ruined It For Me

I might do one more Bonus Jonas where I hold a funeral for EAH on the day it leaves netflix... but this is the last episode where I sink my teeth into video content

this won't be the end of me talking about ever after high though!! now that my memory has been restored of what actually happens i can officially join the eah fandom on tumblr, to which i might contribute some memes and whatnot

And maybe I'll do a spinoff of this series where I yap about the BOOKS that EAH has to offer! Because it turns out I'm missing a LOT of stuff from the books

Anyway, with no further ado... the final webisodes that Ever After High released on YouTube.

Color coded references: Disney, MLP, Descendants comparison, My Awful Lorax Daughter OC Tiffany Truffula, Evil Ex, This Seems a Little Gay

"Meeshell Comes Out of Her Shell"

- I don't mind the new intro when it's extended. Not this.

- maddie magician!! yesssss

- new character alert... the little mermaid daughter!! wait is this the last new character alert ever...?

- I thought Meeshell was an odd name but then I realized it was a pun on Michelle

- what in the H2O just add water?

- in meeshell's defense i would not want a sentient flower either

- "its my hat. she doesn't like my hat" no maddie you're literally perfect

- Meeshell and fluttershy would get along so well

- yessssss!! she's more confident when she's in her element!!

- Her singing the old theme song in the talent show is making me emotional 🥹

- The silence after maddie dropped some tiny tea bags in the water was so funny

- oh meeshell you needed more time in this show i shouldn't have had to meet you so late

"No Business Like Snow Business"

- Winter Palace is back!! Apple and Maddie are visiting!!

- OOOOH I WAS RIGHT!! I TOTALLY CALLED IT THAT ASHLYNN AND CRYSTAL KNEW EACH OTHER IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

- they got some epic winter outfits so they too could join the doll line

- HOLY CRAP ITS JUST LIKE THE CLOUDSDALE WEATHER FACTORY

- I think she's saying something but I can't hear her over the machinery

- ohhhh this takes place BEFORE Epic Winter because Jackie and Northwind aren't punished

- They really seem to hate their job though

- maddie having an i love lucy chocolate moment

- apple is a great diplomat

- i wonder what a hot chocolate slushy would taste like

"A Big Bad Secret"

- Dude.

- This is the last EAH webisode on my list to watch.

- I hope I didn't miss any because then I'd have to watch them after this and it would take away from the whole finale vibe I have going here

- oh no it's cerise's sister... who's going to eat her....

- maddie raven and apple just got BLOWN away

- ramona seems to not have a good relationship with her wolf father... unlike cerise

- volleyball!!

- WAIT WAIT WHAT?? RAMONA GOT SENT TO REFORM SCHOOL?! WHAT HAPPENED?! SOMEONE TELL ME THE LORE

- blondie is WAY too chill about this

- Sparrow what the FUCK are you doing

- IS HE MAKING OUT WITH THAT PIECE OF PAPER

- BABY GOATS!! omg this is the last time i'll see them during this watch

- OOOOOOOH

- FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

- dang it mr wolf i wanted to see the beef

- Okay so THE WHOLE FAMILY is protecting the secret marriage of Little Red and the Wolf. Which I still think is weird af and it's totally justified that everyone would not like it

- Holy crap this means nobody knows they're sisters

- so we're settling the beef with a track meet? no... tell me how ramona got expelled

- WAIT!! WHO WON?!

- THIS IS NOT FAIR

- THEY NEVER EVEN TOLD US WHO WON

- THIS SHOW IS A MASTER AT RAGEBAIT BECAUSE WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT JUST ENDS?!

- NO POST CREDITS SCENE OR ANYTHING

- ...the end. no more ever after high.

- well gamers this series has been a joy to do

- i think it's safe to say i've reclaimed my enjoyment of this show from the clutches of my evil ex-situationship

- may we all live happily ever after

[opinionsaremagic]

rewatching ever after high because my evil ex ruined it for me

Part Sixteen: Snowed In

Here we are. The last Netflix special, Epic Winter.

How time flies...

As always, the color coded references: Disney, MLP, Descendants comparison, My horrible OC Tiffany Truffula, Evil Ex, This Seems a Little Gay

"Snow Day"

- HEY

- NO NO NO YOU CANNOT JUST PLAY THE NEW INTRO AFTER GOING BACK TO THE OLD ONE

- okay but this one is extended and has some elements from the old one so it's SLIGHTLY better

- BROOKE IS BACK!!! and so are the baby goats

- Hold up this was DEFINITELY made during/after Frozen came out, so EAH definitely needed a Snow Queen's Daughter to compete with Elsa

- What a happy family 😊

- Do they absolutely have to have pixies? Couldn't they just have... penguins?

- This girl's color scheme is giving Starlight Glimmer

- So are these the Jack Frost siblings? Man they're really nipping at my nose

- They wanna be Sharpay and Ryan so bad

- That is... verifiably cheating. She just cheated at hockey and no one cares

- Oooooooooooo that ice rose is AWESOME i want one

- DRAGON GAMES RECAP!!

- So the Jack Frost kids can be OWLS, but Kitty and her mom can't be real cats?

- dude what no don't get divorced guys

- how does the glass from a mirror make someone so evil?!

- "not so far far away" and then she goes to shrek's swamp

- so now we get back to our FAVES, where raquelle faybelle is getting chewed out for being evil

- Which... Raquelle DID help save everyone at the end, so he shouldn't be THAT upset

- The school doesn't even look that bad though Faybelle will have no problem cleaning it

- Aaaaaand now we're back to Comphet Apple and Daring.

- Blondie is really focusing on the fact that Apple and Daring aren't compatible rather than talking about who Apple IS compatible with... his younger sister, Darling

- I still wish Apple and Raven could just love each other but that ship has sailed.

- BRIAR AND ASHLYN HI!! Why were they NOWHERE to be seen in Dragon Games??

- I SAW DEXTER AND CUPID IN THE BACKGROUND. DON'T PLAY WITH ME ABOUT DEXTER AND CUPID MATTEL.

- NOOOOO sparrow just opened his mouth again... I liked when he didn't talk during Dragon Games.

- And now Starlight Glimmer has made it snow just because

- Wait how do they even know her?! Did they go to elementary school together and then she transferred to another high school??

- wait a second... SUMMER?! WHY ARE THEY IN HIGH SCHOOL DURING THE SUMMER?! DO THEY NOT HAVE BREAKS?

- YEAAAAAH MELODYYYY

- Oh tiffany truffula would NOT approve of Hunter cutting up that tree

- HI RAVEN!! HI DARLING!!

- This is so awesome I love seeing all my faves in the snow

- "Check it out Crystal!!" while his literal girlfriend is RIGHT next to her

- HI CEDAR!! dexter has been replaced as the cameraman cuz he's hanging with cupid 🥰🥰🥰

- Oh man Blondie's flop era is AWFUL. Seriously. What caused this?

- princess and the peabody award? nice pun

- oh hey rosabella! haven't seen her in a while

- This is like avengers endgame but with Ever After High. Literally everyone is here. (I haven't actually seen any avengers movies I just know that Endgame is a HUGE crossover)

- "Snow white's prince charming was bold, heroic, and... selfless. darling is all those things and you're not"

- This is the callout we were waiting for

- baba yaga what are you doing... are you eating children like in your original fairytale...?

- "LETS KIDNAP THE SNOW KING"

- PENGUIN!! See THIS is what I wanted instead of those GARISH pixies

- Dude are they implying that he's gonna kill her...? That's... horrifying.

- HOLD ON ITS PARENTS DAY

- THE BABY GOATS HAVE A DAD!! AWWWWWW

- Polar bears pulling the sleigh?? that's so badass.

- Daring's fucking snowman has me dead from laughing. It's so stupid that I find it so funny

- HE GAVE IT LITTLE ARMS NOOOOOO

- what the fuck... IS DARING GONNA BECOME A POLAR BEAR

- NOOOOO BABA YAGA

- The jack frost kids can be BEARS too?? KITTY STEP UP YOUR GAME

- HI GILES!! I LOVE YOU GILES

- Jack and the Beanstalk has glasses!! PLEASE SHOW ME ALL THE OTHER PARENTS

- ALRIGHT STARLIGHT GLIMMER!! LET'S GO!!

- The evil queen and Raven watching these people be even more dysfunctional than they are: 👀

- OH MY GOD THEY KILLED RAQUELLE... YOU BASTARDS

- DARING BROUGHT HIS STUPID SNOWMAN TO THE ASSEMBLY AHAHAHAAHAH

- at least blondie is out of her flop era

"A Wicked Winter"

- NOOOO HOPPER

- apple and the goats going mountain climbing 🥹

- The sharpay and ryan twins are devious for this

- TROGDOR!!! thank you raven 🥰

- FAIRY MOBFATHER... raquelle no don't get involved with the mafia

- THE DELIVERY GOOSE IS BACK!! this really is avengers endgame

- wait hold up... He's becoming a beast... rosabella is the daughter of beauty and the beast...

- FARRAH!!! HI FARRAH!!! she's the best plot device i could ask for

- This king has been cursed with twisting other people's words. Sounds like some narcissists I know

- What kind of Beast is Daring?? He's like a lion wolf bear thing. I guess what kind of animal the beast was is pretty vague too though

- "I'm still handsome just in a more furry way!" Daring don't say that you'll summon the Zootopia fans

- cerise just looking at him all confident because she too is part wolf

- "You're a beast. I'm gonna go make out with Darling now. Bye." - Apple, definitely

- oh my god raquelle hired the mafia and now she'd indebted to them

- Blondie being a lockpicker is BRILLIANT

- farrah is AMAZING for this. i love her so much

- OH I GET IT THIS IS LIKE FINDING ALL THE INFINITY STONES

- poppy using holly's hair to stay warm is so cute

- "apple please get back together with me" "no i'm still in love with your sister"

- I bet these amazing winter outfits raquelle made everyone are going to make for a GREAT doll line

- Daring pulling everyone is gonna be such great character development for him

- Blondie vlogging the whole time

- I really do ship Rosabella and Daring now

- YESSSSS RAQUELLE!!

- I think this might be my favorite special

"Ice Castle Quest"

- I am become desensitized to the new intro

- now starlight glimmer is learning to tie her own shoes. more character development!!

- maybe jackie frost and her brother should be like actually acting on their evil plan and not stalking the good guys if they want to be successful?

- crystal just has the same purple light blue color scheme and leadership insecurity as starlight, it's uncanny. Also, both are the new shoehorned-in main character!

- "Rescue us!!" *two seconds later* "i know the way!"

- They just revealed themselves for... no reason? But Raquelle is here for all the drama

- Guys I found out something reallt interesting just now. I thought Briar sounded a lot like Barbie, so I looked her up her voice actress's IMDB. Yep. Kate Higgins, voice of Briar Rose AND Barbie in Life in the Dreamhouse. And also Baba Yaga!

- But it gets BETTER! Because Kate Higgins ALSO voiced PRINCESS AURORA in Sofia the First and Ralph Breaks the Internet. AND AURORA IS TECHNICALLY BRIAR'S MOM!! that's so funny!!

- Unfortunately, Starlight and Crystal Winter do not share a voice actress. Sad. But Crystal's speech was inspiring.

- Blondie vlogging this whole time so everyone at home can tune in is awesome

- making an icicle ladder is brilliant!! but it makes me miss Raven's impromptu ideas.

- When I was a kid watching movies and some kind of sliding-from-a-slide or falling-from-a-high-point action happened, I would say aloud, "That would be awesome." and watching them go sledding just made me say it aloud again

- "oWwWwIe!! a SPLINTER in my pAaAwWw!"

- So the Cinderella people just dipped and now we don't get to meet them? BORING!! YAWNING!!

- i love rosabella and daring so much 😍 living proof that canon straight ships can interest me if done well

- has it ALREADY been three days in this universe?? i swear it's only been a few hours

- Thank you for saving us Farrah we'd be lost without you 🥰 (she's like the new brooke)

- BIG PUMPKIN

- YAY WE FOUND THE NEXT INFINITY STONE- I mean rose.

- "tenacious troupe" is a great name except it reminds me of jack black's band Tenacious D

- Crystal: I'm a big fan of your story!!

- Briar: Well I'm not, that's why I got rid of the stupid storybook of legends.

- Shit. we're so cooked. This is like when Horton hears a who had to find that clover in the field and he had to spend like 1000 days looking for it

- nooooooo briar don't do it

- UGHHHHHHHHHH THESE STUPID JACK FROST TWINS... I wish I was in this story as Tiffany Truffula so I could smack them

- narrators... I wouldn't say they would rule the whole world... I'm pretty sure they JUST rule over winter

- oh GREAT, now we're in a MUSIC video again. I'm really confused why we're doing this and also why Crystal is singing in all her friends' dreams

- But i LOVE me some rosabella and daring

- THEY KISSED AWWWWWW

- HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?! HOW DID SHE JUST WAKE UP!? SHE DIDN'T GET KISSED!

- oh great now there's hail... and a tornado

- WHAT IN THE WIZARD OF OZ

"Crystal Rose"

- at least the intro song is better than the music video we just saw

- i can't believe it's already the last netflix episode

- NOOOOOOOO THE POOR GOATS

- trogdor is saving their asses at the high school right now

- I'm still confused on how Crystal was able to wake up... also why are they acting like she's a nepo baby? EVERYONE is a nepo baby in this world.

- Yikes... these people suck at ruling. They're even worse than the Evil Queen probably

- i'm sure everyone would be okay with it if they knew faybelle was in debt... she redeemed herself after dragon games i thought?

- AAAAAAAAAA MY FAVORITE STRAIGHT PEOPLE

- thank you pixies

- ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN

- "I'M THE ONE YOU WANT!!" IT'S ME!! IT'S MEEEEEEEEEE SO IF YOU CARE TO FIND MEEEEEE LOOK TO THE WESTERN SKYYYYY-

- we need ever after high wizard of oz children now that the book is public domain

- PENGUINNNNN!! its so cute 🥰

- Everyone watching this confrontation/Crystal's character development monologue on Blondie's vlog 🥹

- when Rosabella and Daring get married I hope they invite Northwind to their wedding

- DAMN IT RAQUELLE

- it's really lucky that she got her wand back at just the right time

- YAY CRYSTAL!! I'm so proud of herrrr

- HAHAHAHA RAQUELLE STILL HAS THE CROSSED OUT PICTURES OF APPLE AND RAVEN

- Raven, Trogdor, Maddie and Apple watching this unfold: 😶

- poor raquelle i actually feel really bad for her

- DARING!! YESSSSSSSS!! I'M SO PROUD 🥰 AND HE'S TOTALLY GETTING WITH ROSABELLA

- and the snow queen and king are back to being a big happy family

- I miss the penguins but i'm glad everyone is saved

- YAYYYY crystal rules winter now!!

- The jack frost twins should totally hire the mob fairies to shovel the driveway for them hahaha

- awwwww that was so good

- i cannot believe that's the end of the netflix specials

- only. one. part. left. of this series.
