After a bit of googling, it looks like he was accused of giving her "a toxic mixture" of the drugs. He's also accused of withdrawing a large amount of money from her bank account in the time frame when she was estimated to be unconscious (according to articles that don't actually link to the suit, so take that as you…

No, they don't have any gemitalia.

Zag Toys landed the nose licensing before Funko Pop could get it.

I have no clue. I can't see how it would hurt though.

Ha, same Pearl and same problem although I notice your Pearl has the toe line of her shoe really smudged as well. I can't say much for Lapis since I can't see the defect (and yes, I also hate her hair! Why horns?) but I'd ask about Pearl and Amethyst. The smudge on your Amethyst in particular is really bad.

I've gotten Amethyst, Pearl, two Stevens, Lapis, two Roses and a Lion, and so far only the Pearl seems to have any defect (a pretty minor paint flaw in a join line on her chin). It sounds like you may have gotten a defective lot. It might be worth contacting Funko on their Facebook or some such and asking about a…

I love Brookfield Zoo, but I don't know if the two stories are entirely comparable. The boy who fell was unconscious while he was in the gorilla enclosure and Binti Jua was being trained at the time to carry a doll to the keepers. Chicory (the male gorilla) was also off-exhibit when the kid fell. The general feeling…

She'll come around. Connie's softening her up.

Yeah, I'm wondering. Lapis's flashback in Same Old World shows her being interrogated by reddish colored Gems, which would probably mean Pink Diamond's court. But Blue Diamond's court in The Answer was entirely blue and pink gems. Jasper's situation would imply that Pink Diamond's gems were redistributed to other…

I personally assume that the relationship between humans and Homeworld Gems can be compared to the relationship between a mouse and a car.

So if you're a Crystal Gem battle is chaos plus every time you defeat your enemy you have to stop and grab their Gem and hope someone doesn't punch you in the back.

Oh sure, but I think the show was very ambiguous about whether or not Rose made the right choice and it surprised me that Steven chose that way as well.

Sure, but that's a minute you're distracted in combat from the superior force you're fighting against. Is getting dog-piled not a concern? Do Gems fight in line battles? These are all honest questions.

That's great in a one-on-one fight but how that does that work in an actual battle? If you're poofing your enemy and they're immediately reforming and shattering your troops then how do you win?

I loved this episode but man, I think I might be a Bismuth supporter. Exactly how effective is poofing enemy soldiers? Pearl took quite a while to regenerate, but in the heat of battle Amethyst took maybe a minute to pop back out again ready to fight. How does anyone win a battle like that? There is bubbling, but…

It's rare that I regret reading a Wikipedia article that quickly. The AV Club blurb doesn't even do justice to how fucked up this case was.

A retro arcade opened in my neighborhood with the fun twist that all the games are free-to-play and you pay a cover to get in. Even with that, I've never managed to beat this game. It's too long, too hard and my player twos always get bored and wander off to the shooters. I'd like to finish it sometime though. I…

Jeff Smith, Kate Beaton, Scott C. and Randall Munroe
are all great writers and illustrators and I respect their work but
they've all self-published only their own works as far as I know, and several of them now use third-party publishers. C. Spike Trotman is a publisher who has published her own and others' works. …

Oh no, Bismuth is adorable!
