What a fucking moron.

Counter-point: Yellow Diamond is voiced by Patti LuPone. That’s gotta count for something.

I wish I had noticed this, but someone else out in Facebook land pointed this out: With Sadie now a rock singer and Lars a pink space rebel, the two of them have become a gender swapped recapitulation of Rose and Greg. Nice one, Crewniverse.

You don’t seem like you make things very merry at all.

Hard cut to Uncle Andy screaming “WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE TOOK MY FREAKING BARN INTO SPACE?!!”

You always hear it in country music. Your woman leaves, she takes your dog, you get eaten by a radish.

Whoever animated the depressed face Peridot makes when she’s dragged out of the tub deserves a goddamn raise.

And then you feel twice as guilty when you realize how good you’ve felt not talking to them for a year.

Lapis better spend her time in space getting her act together and learning to apologize, because if she comes back expecting everyone to keep treating her with kid gloves after she bailed like that then, frankly, she…

“Back to the Kindergarten” almost killed me, because I was going through a break-up when I saw it on top of getting through a period of extended unemployment (it was coming up on a year at that point). When Peridot had her big rant about things never getting better, I had to stop the episode to cry for a bit. I just…

Lapis is that friend that you totally recognize their issues being legitimate, but you don’t have the energy, then you feel guilty that you haven’t reached out earlier, then the guilt keeps you away, then you wonder if they’ll be pissed when you finally do talk to them after so long, then that keeps you away longer,…

Oh he’s still a jerk - but he has one of the best lines in all of Steven Universe in this episode so it’s hard to stay mad. Mostly you walked away charmed by how pathetic he is.

Eh, it works.

A radish with a fist on its tongue. I’d like to see the seed catalog that came out of.

and then getting eaten by the giant radish thing

The past few episodes have been great but even then, having kinda jumped ahead, were only sauce for the goose.

Peridot slumped over listening to country music was one of my favorite, most identifiable, Peridot moments ever. Oh sad little slice of pie, have I been there.

Why does Shelby Rabara not have a trophy cabinet of awards yet for her VA work?

I think a big part of the problem with late-era Eminem releases is the disconnect between what made him famous in hip-hop circles and what made him famous in pop circles.

Full points to Grace Rolek for her voice work in “Dewey Wins”. She captured that mixture of resentment and relief very well in her parting dialog to Steven. I’m happy to see the show giving the conflict between Steven and Connie room to breathe, as their relationship is easily one of the best written in any show I’ve…

I got a pretty good laugh out of Greg casually mentioning how he’s still a millionaire. The man sure does know how to save.
