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

imagine 18 percent of your country's population displaced by military violence. that'd be over 12 million people in the UK or 65 million people in the US. that's what's happened in Lebanon at the hands of the Israeli invaders, who want to permanently steal their land. this is why Hezbollah exists and why actions to disrupt Israel's economy and arms shipments remain vital. Israel won't stop untill it's stopped, not in Palestine, not in Lebanon, not in Syria, not in Iran

romantic exclusivity is so stupid. like "now you're dating me you're not allowed to have fun with anyone else" fuck off.

i think the body takes its most erotic form when it betrays and destroys itself to the point that it calls into question the accuracy of defining it as "yours" and i have no psychological problems or complicated relationships with personhood also

saw a post arguing that trans*ndrophobia should exist as a term even though other types of men do not get their own unique terms (ie, black men do not get a counterpart term to misogynoir, etc), and that the reason for this is because "discrimination against transmascs is more complex and nuanced than against cis male minorities" and that's gotta be one of the whitest, most birthday boy ass sentences ever conceived.

Andrew Tate fanclub meeting in the comments.

Wizard girl glamouring her clothes so that anyone who isn't sapphic sees a modest outfit instead whatever incredibly slutty clothes she has on (or just her fully nude body).
