i saw this tweet and found it interesting for two reasons. one is that some people base how good cartoon network would be to toh by how it treated su, and despite the fact that su’s treatment by the network was considered poor at the time, now its thought to be exceptionally good in comparison to modern shows.
two is how exactly su got impacted by a limited budget. a common criticism is how characters like connie, peridot, and lapis are left out of missions. but balancing a lot of characters is not only hard but also costly (extra animation, extra voices—it’s been revealed that the show is limited to a set number of characters per episode otherwise they’re over budget). animation mistakes are not uncommon since retakes cost extra. the entire reason the original show got cut short was due to loss of funding!
#i don’t know if pay rates differ per networks#but a.ivi and s.urrashu have said that they needed to work outside of su in order to make sufficient funds#it only makes me wonder what other ways su suffered from a lower budget#that we as the audience never got to see#in the vein of the too-little characters complaint#another part of that is that low-stakes episodes should’ve been abt the main cast instead of the townies#like last one out of beach city and too short to ride vs restaurant wars and kiki’s pizza delivery service#i definitely see that especially since that isn’t budget related#nor would it seem to be network related (even if cn had an ‘episodic episodes’ quota it could still be abt the gems#(another side note: /would/ cn even have a requirement that the show make episodes that can be watched standalone?#this is a question for the people who were around when su was airing#what episodes often got rerun?#was it the townie eps or the lore eps?#for example i heard that su once did a ‘peridot event’ where they just reran peridot episodes#which had eps that skip around in the show#did they even care about airing the story so that it made sense anyways?#id get it if the low stakes townie episodes were the ones getting rerun))#but i have such a boring view on that which is i think it’s simply because the creators like townie eps#like in interviews r.ebecca s.ugar has said she’s the type to be really invested in background characters#answers in interviews have been crafted in ways to hide what’s really going on though tbf#prime example of this is rebecca and ian saying the wedding being interrupted was meant to follow the common trope#when later in the art book they said that it was bc cn rejected the ep bc it ‘wasn’t interesting enough’#both could simultaneously be true! it’s a psychology thing though where people make up nice-sounding explanations behind what they create#in retrospect because they want it to be thought out in such a nice way they believe in it#the bigger problem is that not matter how many episodes there are of them#it can be hard for ppl to be invested in the townies the same way they are invested in the main cast#i’m sure that a million writers have made surefire advice on how to get an audience to care about characters#but off the top of my head i think it’s because 1. most don’t have strong motivations to get truly invested in#(exception is ronaldo but people find him too annoying to care about him)#okay i had more points and explanations but i hit the tag limit and idk if anyone is actually reading this so bye

it's currently like 5 am but all i'm saying is that there needed to be an eah webisode where raven got to beat up headmaster grimm with a baseball bat for the whole episode.
i don't even want any magic bs going on yk, just at least 5 minutes of raven beating the shit out of him with a baseball bat that maddie probably pulled out of her hat.
she went through a lot of shit okay; girl deserved to at least have SOMETHING. and personally speaking, i think it's something we all would enjoy so it's a win-win for everyone here.

my summerslam predictions
this is very much a yap fest so if u dont wanna see a bunch of paragraphs of me yapping and me very much going insane then dont click the read more, but if u want to see me yap then go ahead 😋😋
bailey vs nia jax
winner ? i think nia jax 
why ? for one, im not rlly excited for this match and just from knowing jax i think she might win regardless.
shes just an icon anyway! i love bailey and ive loved how much shes grown and became an amazing superstar but i just hsve this gut feeling nias gonna win. i dont rlly think tiffany will cash in bc she needs to flaunt her mitb purse for a bit!!!
p.s: bailey's championship run is kind of boring ngl?? like ofc shes cool n all but we've already seen all the layers to bailey being champion and i need a new one and ineed it now
logan (fuckass) paul vs la knight
 winner ? la knight. no take backs
why? I FUCKING HATE LOGAN PAUL PLEASE LA KNIGHT WIN PLEADEMPLALSPELSLSKWPWLWL 
but in all seriousness, logan paul is barely here?? istg he shows up, yaps, and then leaves for like ten decades until someone provokes him again. hes barely defending it and hes not here enough to even do so. la knight DSERVES this belt! when i tell u hes been freaking phenomenal in the main roster and judt to think hes never had a belt is wild?? he needs to win point blank periodt 
p.s: i just know logans gonna try smthn anf fuck it up and thsts gonna cause him the match and what will i b doing? pointing and laughing
p.s.s: i will be sending a very nice and long letter if la knight doesnt win
sami jey- i mean zayn 😁 vs bron breakker
winner ? bron breakker
why? for this match im just going to wing it honestly bc there are SO many possibilities for this but im moreso on bron's side.
sami is known for being extremely strong in ring and surprising everyone around him when he kicks a big guy's ass, yes, but then again bron fucking breakker?? HELLO?? have we seen him??? remember that one time he left someone SHAKING and they had to go to the hospital? remember when he DESTROYED ricochet? the amount of spears he did to people? plus hes been a freaking powerhouse in many ways and i think he deserves this title as well
liv morgan vs rhea ripley
winner ? liv morgan 
why? bc i trust my gut and even tho it sucks to say, the liv revenge tour is not yet over.
liv morgan has been doing an fan fucking tastic job at being a chamption its insane and while ofc we all love our mami, i dont think wwe is just gonna grant her the belt right when she steps into wwe ?? thatd be so boring honestly bc i want to see MORE of this feud and how rhea will gradually win back everything from liv in a span of time. she cant just win everything back just from one ppv !!! so yeah i think liv will win, and i WANT her to win only because i want this rivalry to last a little longer bc if rhea wins, theyll basically just b going their separate ways. 
p.s: i just KNOW during the match, dom is going to cost rhea the win. question is tho will it be on purpose or accident? i REALLY want dom to turn and be with liv regardless of him calling her a bitch and saying he hates her bc i know if rhea didnt come back during raw, he wouldve definitely kissed liv and wouldhe got wirh her. itll also give rhea more to fight for–the title, and her man–and itll fire the feud even more
damien priest vs gunther
winner ? gunther...
why ? at first, i wanted to say damien was going to win but honestly i have a feeling papa trips is gonna cook and make gunther win instead
gunther deserves a title imo (u can tell the three am brain was hitting here bc i forgot gunther was champion already) and i feel like damien would be kinda clouded by the insults gunther was throwing around that its gonna throw him off in some way causing gunther to win
maybe some shenanigans might go down which coukd cost damien the match as well like if JD and finn will come out and make damien lose and then thatll cause damien to possibly go face and break from the judgement day bc he doesnt want help!!
gunther might walk in to bash in berlin as champion (or maybe im wrong abt this prediction and he'll actually win it at bash at berlin but idk lol)
cody rhodes vs solo sikoa (bloodline rules)
winner? mmmmm cody?????
why? im so stumped for this match and i dont wanna say i dont care abt it but its not my top priority 🤕
i want roman to come back during this match and fuck everything up since he technically is still apart of the bloodline and then he'll put solo back in his place which will make cody remain but then again idkkkk so, im winging this one and will just watch.
cm punk vs drew mcintyre 😨😨😨😨😨 (with sethie reffing!)
winner? i dont know in the best way possible
why? this is just going to be a yap session but here r all my thoughts
im moreso siding with drew on this (GASP CM PUNK FAN WANTING DREW TO WIN?) bc punk HAS cost drew so many matches atp that itd make drew look so damn weak for him to lose and then hed just be complaining again the next day?? like it would be so freaking boring??? 
if cm punk DOES win i feel like itd be because OF something like some sort of distraction perhaps? bc as seth said, they have to follow ALL of his rules n stuff so maybe drew gets distracted by seth and then punk will pin and seth HAS to grant him the win (like how shawn michaels had to grant bret the win during that one match when he guest reffed) 
i know this is setting the bar high but i want aj lee IF WWE LOVES ME! like aj slaps drew, telling him she'll never be his family n shit and then larry comes out and bite his ankles 😁😁 THIS IS SETTING THE BAR RLLY HIGH BUT IT WOULD BE QUITE FUNNY

Finally watched aew all in! So here will be all my thoughts for the card and results.
I'm upset that the young bucks won, I feel like acclaimed deserved the titles, or soon the young bucks should let go of them because they've had them way too much. And another tag team deserves to hold them and actually consistently defend them or something like that.
I don't mind that Claudio, yuta, and pac won the trios. I think it'll be good development for yuta plus I'm a Claudio lover so it's a happy day for me to say the least.
I don't care that Mercedes mone had won tbh, not really big on that match. Loved Mercedes entrance tho-
Toni storm and Mariah May put on a phenomenal show, and honestly Mariah did well I think she'll do good for the title. And I cannot wait to see what the timeless toni storm does next.
I am actually upset Christian cage won the casino match ANYONE else would have been more deserving. Luchasaurus, Nigel, Zack, Kyle, orange Cassidy, Adam page. literally anyone else when we have seen SO many short term runs of titles with Christian already. I love him but goddamn we needed someone new.
GO HOOK, YAY, YIPPEE 🎉. Ahem I love hook and he deserves that title so much, I bet Taz is proud of his son. And the fact taz came in?? EVEN BETTER. I'm just super happy he's the ftw champ again and looking good as ever.
Darby and Jack Perry, ngl I'm happy Jack won I hope they don't kill this story yet because the chemistry they have in ring is fucking amazing. They could do a lot with these two, also sting coming in??? Amazing shit was happy to see sting help Darby out and beat the evps asses.
MJF and Will ospreay, wowee I wonder what I'll say omg. anyways I love MJF, before ospreay he was the profile theme so I would have been thrilled with either yet I think they are going to do bigger things with MJF again and let ospreay have a title like that for the moment, I think they'll be using MJF a lot again soon y'know.
Lastly I believe Bryan Danielson and swerve Strickland, Bryan earned that win he will treat the title well and I wish him a good last year before retirement. Though also I wish swerve would keep his title longer I think this match could have been a great end to his career even if he had lost, it would have been bittersweet but also very sweet and such if he actually retired in aew all in.

Worst Quality gif, but banger match. I’ve already seen it years ago but I’m so glad someone uploaded it to YT to rewatch anytime. (Low quality, but…)
To clarify - It’s an Ultimate X match and Nick is currently climbing the X rope to grab that red X. (He does the climb first then Matt does, but Matt was like hella fast across that rope too. I’m starting to doubt his height fears just to politely bully him out of love.) ❤️
I won’t spoil the ending if you’ve never saw it before.
I know their TNA career wasn’t the best for them, but I’m glad they left behind these beautiful matches with the MCMG. 🖤

Read the Little Mushroom manhua up till Chapter 21 because of the gorgeous gorgeous absolutely scrumptious art style and nice plot + worldbuilding especially after one of my college courses had me falling down a speculative fiction rabbit hole –> it was not enough i need to devour the novel –> novelupdates has it posted but it ended up not having any actual chapters posted T^T –> maybe one more google search won't hurt –> finds properly translated, complete chapters, in an epub RAHHHHH

early 2000s cultural window of middle class bougie where one of your friends whose family was well off had a flat screen tv with 500 channels in 2005 and their fridge was chrome with french doors and they had a cellphone in the house
all things that have become very ubiquitous and affordable over the past two decades but for a period of time pay per view satellite on demand was putting on the ritz

Do you think we will ever see a crossover PPV event between AEW and WWE one day?
Maybe in survivor series style with several matches "wwe vs aew" or even like it was All In with a random series of matches involving wrestlerd from anywhere
Untill there was Vince on wwe, I would have said definitely no, but now with Triple H on top I think there are more chances, even if lately Tony Khan seemed a bit hard towards wwe and this makes me think that it won't happen soon, anyway I still hope for it, maybe we just need some years abd a bit of changes
What do you think about?
There are so many great talents on both rosters, it surely would be a wonderful show.
