Steven are you high

[ask-steven-d-universe]

Rise and shine, Mr. Universe. Rise and shine.

Not that I wish to imply you have been sleeping on the job. No one is more deserving of a rest. And all the effort in the world would have gone to waste until...well, let's just say your hour has come again.

The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.

So, wake up, Mr. Universe. Wake up and smell the a s h e s.

... I... Umm...

I feel like this is a reference to something, but I dunno what... ^^;

Love, Steven~! ☆

I must know do you still have a hatred for water

su search history community. i know this conclusion has taken years, but i hope it helps you all find peace in your hearts. it was a hard battle to get here. many were lost, we lost sight of the original cause more than a few times. i’m aware you each have loved ones that were taken by the wars, and i can only attempt to feel your pain. still though, we persevered. we survived. in these trenches, we became family. and so, my fellow soldiers in arms, my brothers and sisters on this earth, it is my most honourable pleasure to announce to you -

water.

Hi Steven! I'm Daisy and I'm new here and I have a few questions, if you don't mind? 1. what is your favorite food/snacks? 2. your mama takes you to a lot of places, where do you enjoy going the most? 3. I love all of your outfits! what is your favorite outfit to wear? ✨

Oh my God my first ask! Holy mackerel! Um first of all hi miss Daisy! It's a pleasure to meet you!

My sister Odessa has taken over the blog for the season but I'm more than happy to answer you my friend!

1. Favorite food/snack? I love anything chocolate! I particularly like zingers! You know those little cakes that are kinda like twinkies but have frosting on the top? Oh yes I love those ^.^

2. Favorite place with mum? I love when she takes me to the mall for a day out! We usually stop in at work (we work at Build-a- Bear ^.^) to check out new outfits and stuff!

3. Awwwww I'm sure you've seen mostly my sisters outfits. Mine personally, believe it or not, is actually my elf costume! I know I'm a werewolf, and Halloween is my thing, but the elf costume just gives me the warm fuzzies!

Thank you so much for your questions! Feel free to ask me, Odessa, or Albrecht anything ^.^

🎃Happy Halloween! 🎃

I wish I could do more this year, but I've been unexpectedly busy for the past couple of weeks. Nevertheless, I wanted to do our traditional Halloween cosplay illustration!

As usual, bonus points to those who know what series this is from. ;)

"When is the hiatus gonna be over?"

At this point, it'll be over when it's over. Sorry guys! I thought I could get back to things quickly, but I'm kinda getting a lot of stuff thrown at me that I can't just put aside in favor of the comic.

If you want to see early Steven Bomb comics, there are a few already available on my Patreon!

Aside from that, I plan to maybe get back into the swing of things in late November or maybe early December.

Thanks for understanding!

Which adaptation of Sherlock Holmes is the most queer?

*not including House M.D. because it's not really an adaptation, or any overtly queer pastiches like My Dearest Holmes or The Adventure of the Furtive Festivity because that's not really a fair contest

[beartitled]

“At least it's not ferociously attacking God quite as directly as Steven Universe did…”

Not that I’m surprised by this statement, but can you elaborate on this? Kinda intrigued by your thoughts on Steven Universe.

Okie dokie, you’re not the only one who has asked me about this, so I suppose I’ll poke the hornet’s nest. 😅 I haven’t talked about this before because I assumed that everyone who wanted to hear my kinds of opinions on stories wasn’t watching or interested in Steven Universe.

It’s like asking vegetarian if they enjoyed a turkey dinner. The turkey dinner was so obviously not made for vegetarians to enjoy, so why would the vegetarian even bother analyzing the turkey?

But I think if some people are asking me why I think Steven Universe is anti-God (of the Bible) its because maybe they don’t know what the turkey is. Not completely. (Maybe not you, because like you said, you’re not surprised by my comment.) So I’ll explain my thoughts on Steven Universe.

If you’re just following me because you liked some stuff I posted, but didn’t realize that I’m a Bible-believing Christian and don’t want to hear about it, unfollow me now. Because I’m going to talk about some hot button issues here and the trolls will come out.

Steven Universe is really well-done. The jokes are funny, the writing is believable, the characters have great chemistry, great design, the concept is fascinating, the slow build-up and reveal of the plot elements is great. But when you watch the throne room scene in the last episode of Season 5 “Change Your Mind,” it’s alarmingly clear how much the whole show is not just settling for defending and championing the LGBTQ+ worldview—it goes all the way to attacking what Christians believe, on the other side.

Anything that’s pro-LGBTQ+ is doing that by default, but this show goes out of its way to do that.

You have to understand: God created and designed us. Deeper than that; He created and designed romantic relationships, and invented marriage. He didn’t just create love—He is love. So when humans come along and do what we’ve always done since the fall, and say, “I’d rather define what Your thing is and how it works for myself, God,” it’s not only an incredible slap in the face, it’s an attack on God’s actual identity—and it’s destructive for us and the people around us. Like a fish insisting it can breathe oxygen.

But Steven Universe goes beyond that. It knows that the Christian worldview is it’s biggest opposition. It digs right down to the heart of the worldview-battle. LGBTQ+ worldview says, “I should get to love what I want and be who I am, because I’m me. Love is love. (By which I mean, any action or relationship I choose to call love is love, because I’m the one calling it that.)”

Biblical worldview says “No, wait, you shouldn’t base your decisions on you alone; what you want changes day to day, and you’re broken, so you can’t ever be satisfied based on what you want—the Bible says God made you for something, and you rejected that, and it broke you. You’re not how you’re meant to be: even what you want and what you think love is is twisted up and can hurt you and others. But if you submit to God He’ll help you, He’ll fix what’s broken and give you new life by making you how you were supposed to be: He’ll live in you and through you.”

Are we beginning to get the picture?

See, the whole thing with the opposing views between LGBTQ+ and Christian people is as old as time. It’s not a new debate. It’s Satan and Eve in the garden. She says, “This is not how God said things should be,” and Satan says, “Are you sure that’s what He said? He knows if you do this thing, you’ll be like Him. You’ll be god: you’ll get to decide ‘how things should be’ for yourself.”

He lied and said that disobedience would satisfy her. That she knew what her own heart needed better than the God that made it did. That the very act of being imperfect would make her godlike.

And then Steven Universe comes along and says “if every pork chop were perfect, we wouldn’t have hotdogs.”

And has a cast of created being characters who’s imperfections (Garnet’s forbidden “love,” Pearl’s obsession, Amethyst’s insecurity) are supposedly “the best thing about them; what makes them who they are.”

And has a main character who used to be a part of the god-like creator relationship, but used her power to come down to earth and completely change who she is into a fully different person.

And has a godlike Creator character who claims she “doesn’t need” her created beings (just like the God of the Bible) but they all have a little part of their creator in them so she has to repress their imperfections; she holds them all to a standard that’s impossible to reach called “perfection” and punishes them when they don’t meet it even though it hurts them to try; she expects them all to do what they were created by her for; she fixes them when they can’t meet her standard by shining her light through them and making them extensions of their Creator.

And has a main character who argues, fights back, tries to stop her, and is answered with lines that sound surprisingly like what LGBTQ+ people hear when Christians argue with them: “you’re only making things worse; you’re just deceiving yourself; even while you resist it your actual light can’t help shining through,” etc.

White Diamond just wants everything to be perfect. Like her. She just wants her created beings to “be themselves.” But what she means is, be how she created them to be.

And she’s the bad guy. She’s playing God in this show, and Rebecca Sugar is saying, “If God is telling us that can only be happy by being perfect, as He is perfect, and doing what He created us to do, then He’s wrong. Our imperfections are what make us special—unique—individuals—free—and there is nobody who has the right to take that freedom away from us, not even out creator!”

And you know what?

If God were like White Diamond, like Rebecca Sugar believes Him to be, Steven Universe would be right.

But He is NOT.

God is not a dictator who forces us to conform to a standard of perfection and then smashes us when we don’t meet it. He is a King who made us perfect to begin with, and we rejected him, because He allowed us to do that. He knew that true love was love that had to be chosen, and He wanted us to love Him by choice, so he gave us the option. But Rebecca Sugar doesn’t understand—there was never “Choose God or Choose Yourself.” There was only, “Choose God or Choose Nothing.” There was nothing except God. Then He created everything. There is no version of reality where you have something better than God, or even slightly less good but different, to pick. You’re not jumping from one ship into a smaller one, but at least it’s yours—you’re jumping from one ship into a void, and then complaining that there’s no other ship. That’s humans. That’s not God. / White Diamond didn’t make her creations perfect (Amethyst) and she didn’t make them for love. She made them for power. That’s not the God of the Bible.

Even when we did choose to try and love ourselves instead of God, and therefore warped our ability to perfectly love at all, He didn’t smash us. True, everything fell and was cursed, which is exactly what He warned us would happen if we chose it, but it was a natural consequence of breaking ourselves. And then He didn’t leave us that way. He didn’t give up on us. And He certainly didn’t just zap us, snap His fingers, quick-fix it and turn us all into robots who are extensions of Him, who say they love Him but only because it’s His voice puppeting us to say it.

No. He came to us, chose to give up His life at the exact point on the timeline when Romans, masters in the art of slow, humiliating, torturous death, would be the ones to carry out His crucifixion, and saved us Himself. Through the sacrifice of His own life. And even then, we still have a choice. We get to choose to accept that incredible self-sacrifice when we don’t deserve it, and be given new life and a relationship with the Creator who knows us and loves us better than we can love ourselves or receive love from others—OR we can just keep stubbornly insisting that our slavery to the opposite of what God wants is somehow freedom, and our twisted versions of love are genuine, and we’re not broken, and die like that. Die broken creatures who lived their whole lives stomping their feet and screaming “I’m not a creature, I’m a god!”

White Diamond sacrifices nothing, because Rebecca Sugar doesn’t know the God of the Bible. She just knows her idea of Him. She’s never actually gotten to know Him. If she had, she’d learn how silly and twisted her idea is.

Because you know what, yeah, if every pork chop were perfect, we wouldn’t have hot dogs. But people aren’t pork chops. And hot dogs have flavor (not better than pork chops) but they are awful for you.

Christians aren’t perfect cuts of meat with no individuality or flavor. Just because we all know and love the same God doesn’t mean we have no personalities. It just means we don’t think so freaking much about what we are, or who we get to be, or what we like and want. Jeez, what a self-centered, narcissistic, self-obsessed way to live. She plays Steven like he’s this wonder-child, innocent and full of heart, who encourages his friends to love and keep trying. But honestly?

This is very pretty animation but it’s not real. Steven looks happy hugging Steven but self-love doesn’t ultimately get you that.

That’s all based on the premise that what he’s encouraging them to do is actually good, and will make them happy, and will help them love better. And it just won’t. Not in real life. That’s not how any of this works. Self-love is just self-obsession. And that is a sure-fire way to hurt you, and everyone around you.

You’ll never be free by choosing to run to a worse master. You’ll never be satisfied with your crappy attempts at loving yourself, because you were made to be loved flawlessly and forever by someone who is Love Himself.

And choosing to identify with your imperfections doesn’t make you uniquely you. It just makes you exactly like every other human being marching in the same line since the Fall.

White Diamond’s not relational. She’s up high and distant. That’s not God. He made you to be in relationship with Him. He loves you, totally and perfectly, and He proved it by sacrificing for You.

So yeah. That’s the problem with Steven Universe. Come get me, SU fans.

Gems are getting recorrupted? Did the Diamonds have anything to do with it?

... The Diamonds... They have EVERYTHING to do with it!!

I was hoping I didn't have to relive this, but.. this question hit me really hard...

When I heard that The Diamonds were still colonizing planets, commanding entire armies, shattering gems that disobey them, show their enslaved gems propaganda to pin all this on me, AND gaslight everyone into thinking it was for the best of the Gempire! The Diamonds were doing all that behind my back, after I got them to take accountability for their actions! They clearly don't care about gems, they just care about "pleasing" me, because I'm just "Pink Diamond" to them! The Diamonds kept doing all this while holding up a facade!

Well, except Blue, she was the only one who, not only didn't participate in that stuff, but didn't even KNOW about all that until Yellow and White deliberately showed Blue! Unlike the other two, Blue was actively trying to better herself, and help heal the gems! When Blue found out, she did what she could in order to contact me alone.

... She... uhm... showed me everything... Blue wanted to warn me, and help me fight Yellow and White. On our first encounter with Yellow and White, White declared war against me, Blue, and all gems of Earth and Homeworld! That's when it started...

Yellow and White corrupted all the gems, but even worse. Not only are they bigger, more dangerous, and highly unstable, but, without Blue to join them, they weren't destroyed emotionally. Even when they were mentally destroyed, their feelings, their anguish, their sorrow, their pain, all remained...

Blue and I were immune, because we're diamonds. But still, all those gems, everyone, they were all horrifically corrupted right before my eyes, and I couldn't do anything to stop it! It was so horrifying, I had the absolute worst panic attack ever! My chest was in severe, crushing pain, my left arm was numb and painful, I couldn't breathe, I was breaking out in cold sweat, and I couldn't even move my legs! I almost passed out in a coma, but, I brute-forced my way through it!

Once I could get up, I knew a long journey was ahead of me. I first bubbled and healed the Crystal Gems. But healing them wasn't as easy as putting them in a tub of Diamond bathwater, it was... complicated...

Love, Steven~! ☆
