Bullfrog

Why can SHE spend an extravagant amount of money on clothing and accessories while people starve? And why can SHE shut down major commuter transit hubs to build a fake plastic castle in a fake wedding venue? But when I, Marie Antoinette,

Anthy’s scandilacious secret being that she not only was the victim of rape by Akio but also was not drugged or asleep during the assault. This awareness and remnant of “agency” in her victimization makes her a threat to Akio and also turns her from being a princess (perfect victim) to a witch (whore). This fall from grace making her an acceptable target of violence, making her victimhood secondary to her impurity. How dare this witch do away with the prince. Doesn’t she know we need him? Stab her.

we don't credit rebecca sugar enough for making the episode with the first gay wedding in a kids show extremely plot relevant so it could not be skipped or cut.

#rebecca sugar has gone on record saying that they knew from the beginning they wanted ruby and sapphire and they put every inch of planning#in to make sure that the studio could not take them out. sugar has said they’d compromised on hundreds of things they’d wanted for steven#so that they had the bargaining power specifically to keep ruby and sapphire’s relationship#and a number of ‘filler’ episodes were created just to establish counter-arguments that might come up when they pitched the wedding episode#the one that comes to mind is the episode about steven and connie getting lost in rose’s room steven’s central conflict about liking their#fave book series’ romantic ending was later weaponised when producer’s were like ‘oh but steven’s a boy he won’t be too interested in them#getting married’ sugar was able to be like ‘no. in this episode it’s established he loves romance and specifically weddings. and in these#episodes it’s shown how much steven cares about ruby and sapphire and their relationship and happiness. you cannot convince me this is not#good and necessary plot development#and they wrapped it up in the season finale and the big climactic point of the diamonds finally coming to attack earth to make the#episode integral to the series no skipping it without confusion. and had ruby wear a wedding dress because international censors took#advantage of her design to give her a masculine va#and sugar made certain that everybody knew This was a queer love story that an entire town supported and admired and that any child watchin#it at home would know they are not alone and that that support is waiting for them out there somewhere#sugar sacrificed the wider story they wanted to tell for that and it was a horrible decision to be given but they made the right choice

These weren’t even the biggest sacrifices. CN basically gave her an ultimatum and canceled the show for it. She knew this would likely happen and that’s why season 5 is paced so fast. She could have had 2 more seasons but that wouldn’t be worth it without ruby and sapphire

starting the countdown until gaylors start saying that Adam Sandler officiating Taylor's wedding (sorry if this is how you found out) is actually proof that it's a sham because it's a reference to I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007), in which Sandler and Kevin James play heterosexual men who enter a mutually beneficial fake gay marriage, a dynamic that Taylor is inverting as a queer woman pretending to be straight while cleverly flagging the obvious farce to those with the eyes to see

this is worst than finding out from a castiel meme
