y’know, for all the excessive minion shit you see everywhere, it could be worse - at least they made a whole bunch of different renders of the characters for companies to slap on packaging
remember how literally all of the frozen merchandise used that one render of anna and elsa standing back-to-back, with anna smiling at the camera and elsa giving the dreamworks face
I love this because you have Elizabeth who couldn’t even defend herself in the first one to becoming this master sword fighter and leader of ALL pirates. You watch Will who was just this angsty little brat head over heels for Elizabeth become this grown man who faced all his demons.
and then there’s Jack
“Elizabeth who couldn’t even defend herself”
Do you mean…
Elizabeth who improvised a weapon when pirates invaded her bedroom
Elizabeth who could have run for the exits but instead went straight for the swords
Elizabeth who demanded to speak with a pirate captain and then used the leverage she had to get him to agree to her demands
Elizabeth who CAME AT BARBOSSA WITH A GODDAMN KNIFE and then fucking STABBED HIM when she couldn’t get away
Elizabeth who was trapped on a tiny island with nothing but crates of rum and a man she couldn’t stand and who used those supplies to summon a rescue party for herself
Elizabeth who made a rope out of sheets and climbed down the back of a ship to save the day herself when no one would listen to her about how dangerous the pirates were
Elizabeth who snuck onto the Black Pearl, knocked two cursed pirates straight off their ship, and rescued Jack’s entire crew
Elizabeth who rowed straight back into danger without any backup instead of running away with everyone else
Elizabeth who came to Will’s rescue with a blunt object and a one-liner
Elizabeth who proceeded to team up with Will to take down all the remaining pirates in the cave
Elizabeth who – without being asked or told what was going on – faked unconsciousness to create a distraction for Will’s rescue of Jack
Elizabeth who stepped in front of a ring of muskets, successfully protecting Jack and Will from being shot or captured
Elizabeth may have learned some impressive sword tricks in the later movies, but she was a Badass from day one.
In lieu of Tuesday’s episode, many SU fans decided it would be fun to leave bad reviews on the Keystone Motel Co Inc page regarding frozen toilets, square pizza, a waterless pool, and mixed-up tv channels.
If you were one of the people to leave a review like this, delete it immediately. Crewniverse and Rebecca Sugar know what is going on and have told you to stop, and Steven Universe could end up being cancelled as a result.
If you left a 5-star rating to offset the bad joke reviews, delete it.
Here is how to delete a review from Google+

So to recap, just this month Texas has:
1) Denied birth certificates to children born to undocumented parents despite the 14th Amendment that guarantees citizenship to EVERYONE born in the United States.
2) “Accidentally” gave about 250 detained children held in detention center for immigrants an adult dose of a hepatitis A vaccine.
3) And now says “no wrong doing” and “no laws broken” in mass graves of immigrant bodies found in Texas. >>>

Sandra Bland died in police custody this past Monday. Visiting Texas from Chicago to interview for a college job at her alma mater of Prairie View A&M, she was pulled over for a routine traffic violation (failure to use her turn signal). Everything from that point forward screams racism and foul play, including her death in the Waller County jail Monday.
The Waller County Sheriff’s Office told the Chicago Tribune that Bland was arrested on Friday and charged with “assault on a public servant.”
It shows several police officers standing over Bland while she is on the ground, arguing with them about why they’re being so rough.
At one point, she can be heard saying, “You just slammed my head into the ground. Do you not even care about that?” She also thanks the man recording the incident for filming as she is led to a police cruiser.
Her friend, Malcolm Jackson, told ABC 7,
“After he (an officer) pulled her out of the car, forced her and tossed her to the ground, knee to the neck, and arrested her.”
What we see from a bystander video is her telling the officers she is in pain and cannot hear after her head was slammed on the ground by the male arresting officer.
We have now learned that Waller County Sheriff Glenn Smith, who made the first public comments about Bland’s in-custody death, was suspended for documented cases of racismwhen he was chief of police in Hempstead, Texas, in 2007. After serving his suspension, more complaints of racism came in, and Smith was actually fired as chief of police in Hempstead
Family and Friends close to Sandra, including most of twitter, is at an uproar, believing there was no way she committed suicide, and saying that foul play was at work.
“I do suspect foul play,” another friend, Cheryl Nanton, told the news station. “I believe that we are all 100 percent in belief that she did not do harm to herself.”
-you guys attack Matt Burnett–a STAFF member–over Alexandrite’s design when Fusion Cuisine aired, causing him to leave Tumblr. And it caused the Crewniverse page to remove their ask box
-you attack people who draw the Gems and other characters wrong, cosplay them wrong, and do anything wrong in your eyes
-you’ve attacked people to take down their Gemsonas after a new Gem is revealed. Do you KNOW how many people had to rename their Peridot gemsonas?
-you’ve attacked the Uncle Grandpa fandom because of the crossover, spreading hate like some entitled little shits who think this show is the best thing to happen to TV. FYI, it’s not. Plus, telling everyone to boycott the show because you all thought UC was becoming CN’s “mascot”, like that’s ever been a thing. In my 19 of watching that channel, since when has a show become a channel’s mascot.
-you’ve attack people for just drawing NSFW on tumblr. EVERY fandom does this. It’s a rule of the internet. Rule 34: if it exists, there’s porn of it. Steven universe is not an exception
-you’ve leaked episode before their air dates like it’s cute, that it’s okay to reveal a show’s story before shows. A lot of people I know don’t like spoilers. I like spoilers because it adds on to my fun, but DON’t and STOP doing that shit. No one likes it. STOP
-And now, you guys are bringing an actual motel’s ratings down OVER SOME FUCKING SHOW?! it’s not a joke guys. This isn’t funny. Someone’s business is going down the drain because your your actions. This bring SU a bad rep. This brings the Crewniverse a bad name. It’s not funny. And you people going over and giving them 5-star ratings isn’t going to fix things. It’s basically fraud, and you guys are going to get that damn motel in trouble, or even closed down for some fake shit like that.
I’m so sick of this. THINK FOR A MINUTE. DO ANY OF YOU THINK THAT WHAT I LISTED ABOVE IS OKAY? I’M FUCKING SICK OF SEEING THIS SHIT AND I’M ASHAMED TO CALL ME A FAN OF THE SHOW BECAUSE OF YOU HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS, OF PEOPLE DOING THIS. THIS SHOW IS NOT THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD. YOU ARE NOT AN ENTITLED FANDOM. STOP. THIS. NOW.
DAMN
Don’t forget the brony fiasco. And the headcanon policing.
And the whole, “THIS IS MAKING THE STRAIGHTS MAD!!” bullshit
What was wrong with Alexandrite’s design? She looked cool as hell
Also, visual representation of the people who complained about the Uncle Grandpa episode
the reputation of this bloody fandom has it so that I don’t even talk about this stuff in public.
I went to a wedding last Sunday after the Sardonyx reveal, and my cousin comes up to me and kind of quietly asks me right there in public “So did you see Sardonyx?” and I just instantly waved him down like “We don’t talk about business in public”, like we were fucking mafiosi or something.
And I’m someone who’s always been very open about the geeky things I enjoy. Everyone knows I play pokemon, everyone knows I read comic books, everyone knows I dig cartoons and animation in general. But this fandom, sweet fucking jesus, you lot are a legitimate embarrassment to the point I don’t talk about it outside extremely closed spaces.
And it honestly does feel like a mafia thing half the time. My mom overheard my cousin and I talking about it once and we both replied in unison “Don’t worry about it”
