quirky fourth wall breaking character but theyre just fucking. wrong about the medium theyre in. they keep making references to cinematic techniques and directorial styles and the other fourth wall breaking character is like "dumbass we're in a fucking comic book" and they are in a video game.

Well currently they’re in a tumblr post but I see your point

i feel like part of the reason you don't see fun fluffy (not in the cute romance sense) silly slice of life style fanfics as much anymore is because peoples standards have gotten way way higher when it comes to fanworks in a way that kind of sucks. People want to read good fanfics and look at good fanart (who doesn't), but there's hardly any room for truly Playing Toys anymore because people get extremely pissy if something isn't in-character enough, which then makes writers of all kinds insecure about their writing, and insecure about posting it, because when they do make something 'bad' it's no longer just a person having fun and writing a fanfic that's not your thing, it becomes a personal affront on The Character You Love So Much. How Could They Do This? Are They Stupid? Can They Even Read? Do They Have Media Literacy? And like. I get it. I'm guilty of feeling the same way sometimes, I think most people are. But we can't have nice things when we're constantly mean to people. Even if indirectly. Everything has to be legitimate and in-character and there's very little wiggle room for being silly and unserious because then it would come off 'innaccurately' and obviously make the author a bumbling idiot with no sense. There's more to it than this for sure but I think the immense pressure of "they would not fucking say that" really weighs people down creatively

we would NOT get the creepypasta mansion nowadays yknow what I'm saying

I absolutely blame Facebook for this shift. Words cannot describe how freaking WEIRD it was in the mid-00s when there was suddenly this popular website where you were required to use your real, brickspace name and encouraged to post photos of yourself. Every single bit of Standard Internet Safety prior to then said that you should never ever ever do either of those.

This stupid exchange between friends has become a cultural icon.

going forward, red words are considered odd numbers, unless the words were already even numbers, like five. blue words are scared of odd numbers and so will only appear in the same sentence with them if there are green words there too. green words are considered even and five. if you trap a blue word in a sentence with red words but no green words, death will result, and will be considered odd. odd numbers are divisible by purple words unless they (purple or red) are prime or it is raining. death has resulted. a prime number can eat the corpses of most red words and some others but they will be absolutely poisoned and die if they eat an even number, like five. this is how the stock market works.

LMAO GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE

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"?

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.

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.

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....

Hey! Mario was just wondering. Could you'a put a vending machine here? In the middle of this crowded intersection?
