#Steven Dana

[locuas642]

I never watched James Somerton. but I do remember when there was an increasing criticism ("criticism") of Animated shows like Steven Universe of She-Ra being "female-led queer shows" showing that queer women had an "easier" time getting heard of than Queer men.

And at the time I wasnt sure how much I personally could add to that discussion or how much was my place. but now that I feel I have better words to explain my feelings I can say I always thought it was bull.

Queer women do not have an "easier" time getting heard or getting their shows produced. Steven Universe got cancelled for homophobic reasons, and She-Ra had to be extremely careful with how they made Catradora Canon.

Those shows were also teared apart by "fans" who tried their hardest to make the most bad-faith arguments for these shows.

And yes, it is important to mention, ND Stevenson goes by He/Him while Rebecca Sugar is Non-binary, and that comes with their own set of discrimination, including getting misgendered. At the time, before they were out and everyone acted on the belief they were Cis, the argument was that as queer women, they had an "advantage" compared to other queer men, and also Dana Terrace (who is Cis as far as I know) also received this criticism. Most important, they would be shit takes regardless of that

and it's such bullshit, not just because of how unhelpful it is. How it tries to tear down important works and reduce them as a competition. But because of the deeply misogynistic root on it all: that these shows could only get made for "diversity points." That the only reason they got these shows made wasn't because of the blood sweat and tears of queer people working in an industry that is hostile to them. a negation and erasure of their effort.

Okay I've been thinking about Owl House a lot lately and...Guys I'm just so damn angry. Because I rewatched the first episode of the finale and realized something. That first episode is a season finale—That whole episode is one season's worth of content crammed into a single episode. That's at LEAST 12 episodes in 60 minutes—five minutes for each damn episode. But remember the first season of toh was nineteen, the second was twenty-one. If we assume the team would have continued with around that many episodes the average is around twenty. Twenty fucking episodes is sixty minutes—THREE MINUTES AN EPISODE.

This then led me to thinking about my other cancelled show with LGBTQ+ representation—Steven Universe. It's basically the same shit, except somehow fucking worst. The diamond arc should have been it's own fucking season, curing the corrupted gems and them having to get reintroduced to gem/human society should have been a damn season too! The two year time skip makes sense when you really think about it—that's the least amount of time it would have taken to get all that shit done in universe! A year to get the gems readjusted, a year to dismantle the diamond empire—plus episodes filling in gaps/unanswered questions. No wonder Rebecca fought so damn hard for SU Future and the movie! It was a desperate attempt to give herself and the fans some kind of closure! And don't forget! Steven universe seasons were LONG—the median amount of episodes was twenty-four.

This shit wasn't bad writing, it was rushed writing. Desperate attempts to cram what should have been at LEAST two seasons into a few short episodes. Can you imagine this? Sitting with your coworkers and trying to figure out how to make at least forty episodes only 3–6? What can be kept and what has to be left to the imagination? Think of what we fucking lost at those tables—Spinel could have been teased and had a better build up, we could have gotten a Wittebane Brothers flashback, we could have explored the characters in both shows trauma. I'm not just mad—I'm livid and not even for us. For Dana Terrace, for Rebecca Sugar. To have something you created thrown away without a care. I'd be in fucking tears.

Fuck Disney, fuck Warner Brothers.

My biggest mistake was trying to protect you by changing this beautiful, good witch into something she wasn't.

You are different. That's what so exciting. You don't have to be like Rose Quartz. You can be someone even better. You can be, you.

Self-acceptance. It makes you fucking powerful.

Ok but imagine if ND Stevenson, Rebecca Sugar, and Dana Terrace all worked together on a cartoon

[zuzusexytiems]

animators I used to look up to—dana terrace, rebecca sugar, alex hirsch, and more—all silent about palestine.

idk. I can't even look at the owl house stuff the same way anymore. why are ppl in these fandoms just ok with this?

they used to be so loud about social issues, would do live streams to raise money for causes and charities, even went against their actual employer, disney, to lift up voices of marginalized groups.

now they're quiet af. all they do is post doodles. sugar has never once addressed any of this and has even managed to drop an album in the middle it all—as if she didnt have steven universe fans in palestine who are dying.

all three of these animators have used their platforms to speak up several times before, all this tells me is now, they're CHOOSING not to.

disappointment isn't a strong enough word.

“Oh so you like that cartoon that uses fantastical elements to represent the real-time physical, emotional, and psychological effects of repressed trauma?”

anyways I’m watching the owl house again and I had a thought

How many devices do you own? Watch the owl house on all of them! Disney “accidentally” leaked the entirety of for the future, the next episode of the owl house in an effort to lower the views of the show on the official day of release. Everyone’s sick of Disney but one way to combat it is giving a show that Disney has repeatedly put down views! It doesn’t matter if actually pay attention or not turn it on as background noise! Have a project you’ve been waiting to finish or a book you wanna read? Put the show on, turn the volume all the way down, and do it! Dana and the team deserve so much more than this and their hard work deserves to be appreciated! If you want to take it a step further, search up the show on google, search it up on Disney, YouTube any form of social media you can think of! If Disney wants to play, we’ll play.
