People keep tagging my Steven Universe posts with variations of "sorry about posting SU in 2022" and it makes me sad.

Steven Universe finished airing in March of 2020. As of this post, it is only December of 2022.

What a perfect commentary on how short-lived and discourse-pooisoned fandom is anymore.

Sigh.

I am genuinely alarmed at how fast Steven Universe has been buried. I was trying to find a list of all the comic collections yesterday so I could start collecting them, and several are OUT OF PRINT already, and have either tripled in price or are just impossible to find.

A cartoon that was created by a queer Jewish person, who was one of the major writers on Adventure Time, who pushed through the first queer wedding in a children's cartoon...you'd think that would go down in history as the significant milestone that it is.

But instead, two years later and everyone just wants to pretend it didn't happen for some reason.

What the fuck.

If any single part of Steven Universe becomes lost media in my lifetime, I am going to go on the fucking warpath against everyone who contributed to it.

Time and time again it is proven that queer media has to fight an uphill battle just to fucking exist.

my mom didn't believe in lying to children so when I first asked about santa claus as a small child she was like "oh santa claus is another name for a man named saint nicholas who lived a long time ago. he was a very kind and generous man and he loved giving people presents and he would do things like put presents in people's stockings when they were hung up to dry by the fire, so they would find them and be surprised. so now when we give presents at christmas it's fun to pretend saint nicholas or 'santa claus' brings them. and we hang up stockings by the fire and when we get up in the morning there are presents in them, just like if saint nicholas was still alive to bring them!"

so that thanksgiving one of my uncles said jovially "so mac, are you being good for santa claus?" and little (not quite three year old) mac looked up and raised an eyebrow and said witheringly "he's dead."

Goncharov Lore Thus Far, based on the top tumblr post results

  • Main cast are Goncharov himself, his wife Katya (née Michailov), and Andrey 
  • One side character is named Mario Ambrosini. He is described as a “sad boi” and is involved in gambling. 
  • Set in Naples and involving a drug ring/mafia. The plot seems to involve Russian organized crime attempting to get a foothold in Italy. 
  • There is a Boat Scene. Katya survives via resourcefulness. 
  • Andrey and Goncharov have a substantial amount of homoeroticism. Andrey also has an internet in Katya. This forms a true love triangle. 
  • At some point, Katya threatens to shoot Goncharov. This is framed as a Girlboss Moment. 
  • There is also a Beer Bottle Scene. 
  • Katya fakes her death. 
  • heavy clock symbolism. A pivotal scene occurs at a clock tower, there is a grandfather clock in the background of some sets, etc 
  • A supporting female character named Sofia makes an appearance, wearing a cocktail dress. Katya protects her at some point. They’re both in the Boat Scene. At one point they buy fruit together in a marketplace. This is lesbian shipping fuel. 
  • The villain, likely Mario, has a sidekick named Icepick Joe. Joe commits a final act of heroism before being left for dead— after being killed by an Icepick. Perhaps he turned against Mario and was killed in retaliation?
  • Goncharov, played by DeNiro, has a very distinctive manner of walking. 
  • Katya’s brother, Valery, makes an appearance.

from posts I’ve witnessed (only mentioning things I’ve seen >5 blogs post about) - there is an Anchovies scene, and fish symbolism also plays a heavy role. at some point Katya is seen near a fish bowl full of goldfish, and this is important to the Boat Scene as well. - Goncharov and Andrey have homoerotic tension, and this is used to further statements about the cycle of repression and violence

  • The story involves Goncharov losing himself in a downward spiral. It is a tragedy of unbecoming.
  • There’s a Bridge Scene. This is the one with the clocktower chiming in the background.
  • There’s a scene involving a tank of anchovies. 
  • Icepick Joe has a traumatic backstory 
  • Katya betrays Goncharov AND Sofia. She’s well-intentioned, but it all comes crashing down, ending in her losing them both— losing Sofia emotionally and inadvertently causing Goncharov’s death
  • There’s a shootout in Pompeii in which Mario destroys historically significant architecture. This is representative of the destructive nature of nationalism.

Just a reminder not to publically on big websites (especially not Twitter or tik tok) say where you’re torrenting stuff from cause that’s a GREAT way to get that specific avenue shut down

I know y’all think you’re being helpful giving other people “resources” but uh

Some of ya’ll are very bad at this and very confidently bad at this and for no reason so-

1. ZLibrary recently went down because someone made a popular tik tok about it

2. “But Reddit-“ most reliable sources of yor are gone now because of Reddit. Hate to break it to you but cops use Reddit. See how many of those links on subreddits actually still work and for those that do- how long.

3. Most reliable Reddit mods for topics like this will tell you not to be asking for this shit publicly because that’s how it gets busted. Remember the shop lifting guide masterpost? The only thing reliable about that now is that it is reliably known by every store manager on the continent.

Loose. Lips. Sink. Ships.

playing spot the newcomer is easy because they’re the mfs who censor everything

“unalive” “k!ll” you can be free here. loosen up

i dont know how to break this to you but saying the word kill will not influence that

I've got another wild surprise for you about how Tumblr works.
