The understanding I have is that “our” Pearl was originally White Diamond’s, and was given to Pink as a gift to cheer her up (because of the pearl placement on her head, a la White Diamond. As someone else pointed out, that meant that Pink Pearl needed to be, uh, “reeducated”. So, White Pearl in current time is…

“Anymore”? That’s hilarious.

Tumblr is back in a form that makes Tumblr worthless?

But is it making a mistake?

Triple Xmas.

“DILF”? Surely we could have just gone with “SILF.”

How dare Bill Maher not give Jack Kirby co-credit for destroying society.

I’ve always loved this early appearance of Stan Lee on ‘To Tell the Truth’ where you can’t even recognize him until he speaks.

All this needs is the word “blockchain” crammed in there somewhere.

Politics Corner - Closing Arguments Edition. Despite what you see on TV, the top issue for American voters is health care, which is why GOP candidates are running so many ads about how they support people with pre-existing conditions. To show just how sincere they are, MO AG/GOP Senate candidate Josh Harley ran one of…

Know what I find offensive? Your functional illiteracy.

Guns are clearly much more like Erector Sets.

Todd’s cool

In fairness, PB and Marceline were both closing in on their 1000th birthdays before they settled down - Finn could be a bachelor well in to his 40s without seeming out of place.

and the lich got a good send off. The two episodes that deal with Sweet P and his lich-soul are goddamned amazing.

I used to read Pendleton Ward’s old Bueno The Bear comics. They were cute and stupid.

Watching Finn grow…

I remember when I was young, I absolutely hated what they did to Space Ghost (having watched the Re-runs of the original) then in my later teens and early 20s I re-watched some of it and was like, this is good.

I’m not a major fan of CN so I can’t say this definitively, but wouldn’t be at least somewhat accurate to say that Adventure Time really paved the way for what came next? Or was at the vanguard along with Regular Show?

Steven Universe flat out doesn’t exist without AT and Pen Ward catapulting Rebecca Sugar into the position to make it. It gave her two Emmy nominations before she’d even started making SU. I think it’s totally disingenuous to say it didn’t do anything groundbreaking just because Cartoon Network didn’t let them make PB…

Thanks for all the work you did reviewing and honoring this important series, Oliver. I’ve enjoyed talking about it with the other commenters here, using your impressions and thoughts as a jumping off point. You did work worthy of a show like this, and it was always clear how important the show was to you, even beyond…
