I KNOW RIGHT

something like this - the whole going backwards to tell the story thing - is actually a super awesome way to build up character/character development

i was actually thinking yesterday about how this is such a clever way for Griffin to handle things? bc by the time we get back to the present, it really WILL feel like THB have been friends/colleges to all these people. it’s not just ‘oh and now you remember y’all used to be friends!’ but leaving it at that, which would feel a lot more disingenuous. 

The Stolen Century arc isn’t just a good way to make the story make more sense, but it’ll help the characters feel more complete and have their actions make more sense! 

Like aw man I feel like I’m not explaining it right. We as the viewer were kind of in the place of Magnus, Taako, and Merle in that we didn’t know what the greater plot would be. We discover things as they do. At the moment they start remembering everything, Griffin takes us back through time so we can ALL kind of ‘remember’ all this forgotten information.

so by the time we get back to the present, it really will feel like we (and THB) just remembered all this important context for where they are, these people they used to know, what’s happening, etc. 

that’s super satisfying to me!! it just strikes me as an amazing, thoughtful choice that aids both the narrative, the characters and their development, and the experience for us as an audience

Guys, I keep seeing that post going around about putting uncooked spaghetti noodles in your tablet pen to work as replacement nibs, and I know OP means well and stuff, but PLEASE DON’T DO THAT.

Pasta, no matter how smooth it is, is still a product of dry flour, and rubbing it down on a surface creates micro-sized grit that will scratch up your screen faster than any tablet nib, and they wear down even faster, so it won’t even be worth it. Also, it’s so brittle, if it breaks inside the pen, it will be difficult to clean it out.

Tablet nibs are a pain to replace and buy, but buying a 10 pack of them for $7-8 on Amazon is going to be a better choice than having to pay a heftier sum to repair a scratched up tablet surface/screen.

Spread this post if you can, because I’d really hate to see someone accidentally damage their tablets this way.

what does “men who adhere to strict gender binary” even mean tho

NO ONE adheres to the gender binary! NO ONE FITS THEIR GENDER ROLE PERFECTLY! THAT’S THE POINT! AARRRGGH! 

NOOOOO OOOOONE…. ADHERES TO THE GENDER BINARY LIKE GASTON!

when I try to hear this in my head my mental voice is incapable of pronouncing it fast enough to fit the timing of the line

“noooo oooone… adjksjfksfjslenry like Gaston!”

and when I try to fit it to one of the longer such lines, my mental voice becomes too confused about conflicting scansion to continue

no one’s droll like gaston
no one’s swole like gaston
no one fits his assigned gender role like gaston

I’m especially fond of the paaaatriaaarchy
My what a guy that gastooon

Decided to throw my hat in the ring and give my take on Taako and Lupe Taaco in what I think their sylizations of their red robe plus red jacket combos might look like

This new ep!!! WOW!!

Hey remember that scene from It Could’ve Been Great where there was this ominous flouting sphere and Steven was like “wtf is that” and Garnet was like “that’s not what we came for” and then they focused the camera on it for a few seconds with creepy music and then never fucking addressed it again

this orb represents every single loose plot thread the writers have created and never returned to

I feel like a healthy chunk of the criticisms of Steven Universe’s plot endures are a love for the show mixed with impatience manifested as anger.

In episode 6-SIX-we learn that Garnet has three eyes, one red, one blue, and one purple. The next episode we’re introduce to a two gemed, two eyed fusion named Opal and the concept of fusion.

It’s not until episode 49 that this massive, two gem alien named Garnet is revealed to be a fusion. Did the writers forget for 43 episodes to tell us that Garnet is a fusion and then decided haphazardly to tell us during Jail Break. No, of course not. That’s why we saw Ruby and Sapphire’s silhouette in Fusion Cuisine. That’s why we saw Garnet activate a red and blue gem at the Crystal temple. That helps it not feel like the writers pulled this out of thin air. It’s what makes it feel earned.

Steven Universe is a lightly serialized show. Every single season of Steven Universe has been littered with character driven, individualized episodes, many that could be ordered differently during the given season. Those episodes are about the characters and are crucial to audience investment. Who cares how exciting it is to watch Alexandrite fight Malachite if we aren’t told the danger of this fusion or the weight Malachite has on her component gems (Chilie Tid). Occasionally we get glimpses of we’re the plot is headed before we get plot centric episodes.

Don’t asked this show to sprint to the finish line. Steven Universe has always been a slow boil. I don’t know why fractions of this fandom are pretending like this is brand new or some uniquely bad story telling. I think Cartoon Network understands that serialization builds audiences but when it’s too heavy it stops people from watching because they don’t understand what’s going on. It’d be nice if the fandom did too.

the whole show is a slow burn
