i saw this tweet and found it interesting for two reasons. one is that some people base how good cartoon network would be to toh by how it treated su, and despite the fact that su’s treatment by the network was considered poor at the time, now its thought to be exceptionally good in comparison to modern shows.
two is how exactly su got impacted by a limited budget. a common criticism is how characters like connie, peridot, and lapis are left out of missions. but balancing a lot of characters is not only hard but also costly (extra animation, extra voices—it’s been revealed that the show is limited to a set number of characters per episode otherwise they’re over budget). animation mistakes are not uncommon since retakes cost extra. the entire reason the original show got cut short was due to loss of funding!

the songs from hazbin are like 10x better than most popular musicals from the last 50 years there i said it. they're catchy, they're well written, they're musically interesting, and they deliver some powerful messages that don't need context of the show to hit the mark
anyway i've been listening to loser baby and poison on repeat for like a fucking week now i can't get enough

Just finished my first two days at my new school. Overall, it’s gone great. I haven’t had to stop fights, haven’t gotten cussed out, no one’s broken my stuff or someone else’s stuff, I didn’t have a mental breakdown during plan, and have only got one semi passive aggressive convo with a teacher

In one of my first jobs ever, I volunteered to help the office manager and intern coordinator with a Halloween charity event (I was, like, 16). On Halloween, I helped set up a haunted house. Admission was free, but there was a recommended donation at the door for a hyper-local children's cancer charity.
My manager walks over as I'm helping another volunteer put up a fake wall. The other volunteer stops and asks my manager, "Are you wearing my jacket?" "It's cold out, and your jack was right next to the door." And they go back and forth a little about my manager wearing this other man's clothes. "Last week you stole my T-shirt. When will this end?"
After my manager walks away, this man looks over at me and with a heavy sigh says, "Never marry a girl who wears the same size as you. If you do, you'll never have clean clothes again."
Every time I remember that, it makes me laugh just a little. I thought it was a funny piece of advice, especially given that I have a younger sibling quite close in age to me.
