very interesting how everyone and their mothers bash steven universe for redeeming villains who tried to commit mass genocide, killed and harmed thousands of innocent civilians, physically and psychologically abused their family member; but they sympathize with and coddle catra, who did much of the same things.

(while i like steven universe and i do think that people hate on it a lot more than it deserves, i can admit that the show had its fair share of problematic elements. i'm not going to defend it to hell and back like some people do with spop)

#rose/pink diamond too!#the show literally states that she was an abuse victim #and ofc that doesnt excuse her actions but why not apply the same logic to catra?#at least the show itself acknowledges that pink was a deeply flawed individual who would be morally grey at best #while spop acts like their catgirl is the best example of a redemption arc done right #spop critical #spop #spop salt #spop criticism #spop discourse #she ra #spop fandumb #anti spop #anti stans #anti catra #anticatra #not to mention the diamonds may have been “redeemed” from a narrative standpoint but they were not forgiven #especially not by steven #he is clearly uncomfortable around them and even contemplates shattering white #i still think that the diamonds arc could have been handled better #but the creators at least had the courtesy to remind us that the diamonds were tyrannical monsters once #if spop were the writers for su i bet they'd find some way to make all of this steven's fault lmfao

#alexander the making of a god #alexander the great #hephaestion #perioddramaedit #perioddramagif #alexander x hephaestion #buck braithwaite #will stevens #mine #a lot could be said about how they portrayed their relationship and especially hephaestion's character but well. at least they were gay!#they were constantly headbutting which is really sweet i love a good headbutt of love #1k

“Haven’t You Noticed (I’m a Star)” from Steven Universe works so ridiculously well for Leo

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt headcanons #rottmnt leo #rise leo #listen it’s morning now and I haven’t slept so bear with me for the sudden unwarranted lyric analysis haha #a lotttt of the lyrics work so well for him #not even just the overall theme the words just work great #first lyric is literally ‘I can’t help it if I make a scene’ which is one to one with ‘Leo’s makin a scene’ from the rottmnt opening like-#‘I’m turning heads and I’m stopping traffic’ -> Leo has not made it a secret that he values his looks a LOT #-not just his looks but also his ability to get people’s attention #‘when I pose they scream when I joke they laugh’ -> I feel like this speaks for itself #-posing and joking for the crowd and himself #‘I’ve got them dazzled like a stage magician’ -> works both with Leo’s canonical love of magicians and his aptitude with tricks in general #‘well everybody needs a friend and I’ve got you and you and you’ -> I just think it’d be cute to imagine his friends here just as his bros #‘I got you and you and you’ = ‘my brainy guy my smashing guy and eats peanut butter with his fingers guy’#‘haven’t you noticed that I’m a star?’ -> Leo loves attention and especially loves when his feats and efforts are acknowledged #+ he loves glam rock and sci-fi and being a champ and - listen he has a LOT of star symbolism with him #‘haven’t you noticed I made it this far’ - Leo is well aware of how dangerous situations get and thinks himself only a part of a whole #-so hey it’s notable that he’s survived this long yeah?#‘now everyone can see me burning’ -> self-sacrificing with his family bearing witness + all his star and flame symbolism in general #+ how attention naturally goes to him - including bad attention where his mistakes are highlighted and burn bright #also even the limo lyric-#obviously this boy has never and will never own a limo but one of his main secondary colors IS pink so even that #okay that one is just a joke but he would #(on that note though I think the other colors the boys gravitate to outside THEIR color are fun to notice)#I don’t actually know too much about Steven universe beyond the songs and some eps but I like the music #and this just came to my tired mind so here you go anyone who’s interested #may draw something with these lyrics dunno yet #it’s a good song in any case even though it’s super short

"Why am I still doing this?"

"Don't you get it?"

"This is all just a show... and we're playing parts~"

#junie art post #utmv #ink sans #swap sans #dream sans #yea that lyric is from the undertale musical... it was fitting #anyways #you know how back then star sanses were 'fight evil (bad sanses) do good!!' i mean... it still is. but back then it was more...innocent?#*looks at the steven universe star sanses cover i saved on my phone*#ultimately tho...how much do u think ink plays along with that as nothing more than a script given to him #because really. ink is more of a stagehand than a stage performer #and for ink that job comes with knowledge that makes it hard to perform #like you guys ever think more about how ink struggles to view the people around him as “real” (like him) and not characters?#i think about it a lot.#especially. in his 'star sanses' era #to me theres always this nonchalance(?) he treats other sanses 'backstory' and maybe the character themself if he interacts with them #because he cant really treat them as 'real' people #you get what i mean???#THAT DOESNT MEAN HE STAYS LIKE THIS FOREVER. HE CAN GET DEVELOPMENT. LOOK AT ZEPHYRTOP RP. PRIME EXAMPLE.#you see i imagine star sanses as like this cute tv show like madoka magica. starts off cute. ends with you in a crisis #dream is easily the protag in my eyes. comes out with no clue how long its been and explores with fresh eyes. meets swap. meets ink #then they fight evil! cool multiverse exploration! undertale shenanigans!!!!#dream and swap go thru their character arcs #and ink stays suspiciously stagnant #until we get THIS reveal and theres that implication that hes been also behind the scenes nudging things along to 'improve the story'#'anything for the entertainment of the Creators!'#ISNT THAT MESSED UP?? ISNT THAT G R E A T #utmv fanart #ink!tale #underswap

i yet again do NOT understand why people think that what happened to steven in future came out of nowhere. the main show beats it into the ground how fucked up all this stuff has him! just cause he ends the main show in a good place doesnt mean that everything was solved! he solved the gem stuff but not himself, that was the whole point!

like. those people show that they didnt even pay attention to the show AND they dont understand trauma. like. shut the fuck up !!!!

#my post #su #liveblogging #how do you fucking miss the whole EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN THE MAIN SHOW #no child or teenager should go through that!! no one should tbf but especially them #like ok fine. other shows do this stuff all the time and theres no consequences. but su was never the show to do that lol #i know im bringing up discourse from years ago but the thing is is that people STILL hold these opinions!#like. bro athena p on youtube has THE MOST JANK su opinions. she doesnt like pearl or future ? hello?#like ok whatever you dont have to like something but then she starts going into *why* and its like. bro stop talking no #yet again its just like people that say that cassandras betrayal came out of nowhere. NO IT DIDNT FUCK OFF #im so mad dude its so easy to understand this stuff for me #also trauma can absolutely wait to manifest or show its ugly head #he showed concerning behaviors in the main show but. aughhhh whateverrr whatever whatever whatever #its also that he was finally in a good calm place in future and when youre in a calm place your trauma brain goes THIS ISNT RIGHT #it gets so used to the stressful situations you were in that itll still think things are wrong even when nothing is #because it cant risk bringing its guard down in case stuff happens all over again #or some shit like that. fuck #and steven? babey hes been in stressful situations for a long time #ew why does this post have notes lol i thought itd get like 5 notes. im not opening the notes thing lmaoo fuck that

I don't want to reblog it because there are so many bad takes on it but there's a post in my for you quoting a tweet that says 'I'm an ally, but gay people make a lot of really bad webcomics. Not my business but you should figure this out internally probably'

counterpoint: bad webcomics are the backbone of society, let people cook.

#let people be bad at things!!!#I thought we had this settled already #especially marginalised creators haven't we seen enough shitty steven universe takes to have learned this lesson #AND webcomics are one of the last low barrier to entry art hobbies #grr.#I don't have a tag for this #guerrilla takesblogging
