this is just a pet peeve but WHY does every video about nature being harsh or violent has someone commenting "life isn't a Disney movie" like they are clever

Nobody thinks Disney movies are documentaries

Do these people forget things like lions killing each other, Nala almost eating Pumba, Wolves always being vícious in Disney movies? Even ignoring the first point, Disney has never portrayed nature as perfectly safe or ALL animals as kind???

we don't give greg enough credit for not missing a beat from an insanely sick solo while his gf and her gf turned into a big sapphic

Okay, yeah, he gets credit for that

(also really funny that CN tried to use this to censor the scene and didn't work at all, still gay)

this isn't a question, she would

why do you think Pearl got so much hate from the fandom back in the day?

I think it's partially just normal storytelling stuff (we hadn't had the whole story, so a lot of people misunderstood what was being presented and assumed Pearl was just some snape-like creep)

And imo partially a bit of... homophobia. Obviously.

Plus, in a deeper sense.... I think one downside of the mental health discussions becoming more mainstream is that people are less predisposed to characters that embody the duty and sacrifice aspects of love. Which Pearl really does. They are quick to throw everything that isn't 'self care/protecting your peace' as bad or obssessive.

And to be fair, Pearl does go to an extreme that IS too much sometimes and the show points that. But it also points that her loyalty and love for Rose is the only reason the rebellion that allowed Earth to keep going even happened. Pearl learns to also care for herself, but her ability to be devoted to others IS why she's such a pillar of support for Steven!

I hate that cleaning up storyboards takes so long because I keep second guessing if my idea is even worth spending that time on.

the first time Pearl ever asked Garnet to unfuse was because they needed Ruby's fire powers

Rose had discovered ice and well...she thought licking it was a good idea

12 MINUTES AGO???????

What do you MEAN that show is still kicking????????

palezma

Season 10.

I wish It had ended

I wish we were free

i dont normally hate on shows but Teen Titans GO needs to die.

plus, Ame was treated like the feral kid she was before Steven, so for her it must have been the biggest shock out of them to have to be responsible for someone else

We talk a lot about Greg and Pearl's grief regarding Rose since they were in love with her, but I think little is said about how much it must have been hard for Amethyst.

Not only she lost the closest thing she had to an adoptive mother, she died having her own baby. I wonder if Amethyst ever wondered if she was not enough for Rose. Why she needed a 'real' kid..

(ofc Rose would never have seen it that way herself, she thought Amethyst was perfect)

Curse @pearlhoardingdragon for now every Joshua Radin song feels like pearlrose to me
