I actually wanted a double crowning because I felt both did extremely well throughout the season and both deserved it as well. A double win just felt right for this season,I wish Anetra won season 15 of Drag Race. Don’t get me wrong, Sasha is extremely talented— but she is already an established performer. It felt too predictable to me…maybe that’s a dumb complaint, to be annoyed that you know who’s going to win, but I wish a young talented up-and-comer had their chance to shine.
The show isn't bad, but doesn't deserve the accolades that most fans think it does. The show went on hiatus way too much and then episode bombed them all on a specific day. It also wasn't sure what it wanted to be from what I remember. Several episodes it wanted to be some quirky slice of life on beach city, with strange intergalactic gem warriors, and then out of nowhere wanted to go full on serious and serialized. Which would be fine, but it kept flip-flopping.Controversial opinion, but Steven Universe is overrated. Granted, I haven't watched it in a while, but still. I tried to like this show. I really did. It was when it was still fairly popular, so I watched it, and I really just couldn't like it that much. I tried telling myself that I liked it more than I actually did despite knowing it was a lie. Why is it that I don't like it though? I don't think it's godawful, but I couldn't get into it. I don't really know why. Is it because there's lore? Probably not because I watched Ninjago and loved it a lot more (even today). Is it because it's too serialized? No, because Adventure Time is kind of like this, and I also loved it (also still today). There is this one episode about an arcade that I liked, but besides that, the only thing I can really give the show is that the theme song is catchy, but I've also never watched a show with a theme song I dislike. Clarence is way better in my opinion.
Coincidentally, this is one of the things talked about in the video I watched. The fact that, after a while, the show decides to try to take a serious approach and then randomly decides to take a more causal approach in the next episode.The show isn't bad, but doesn't deserve the accolades that most fans think it does.

So there would be all of these high-stake and dangerous plots happening that they would sweep off screen for episodes to focus on some random fry cook or conspiracy nerd, or the shaky relationship of two donut shop employees. And Steven had to be in the center point of it all. There isn't a single episode where any of the characters are allowed to grow or do things without Steven's intervention.
Sugar wasn't a very consistent writer. She actually hired people to write some of the episodes. And those episodes are the ones that are rated the highest. One of the writers did the episode where the diamonds (Yellow) was first introduced. And they left an impression as a dangerous, formidable, and scary villain. Sugar then rewrites the diamonds to humanize and make us feel bad for a global dictator. Which isn't really a good thing to try to do with a dictator who waged so many wars and killed so many people just to harvest worlds for their resources.
If anything, your reason may be because of consistency. Or it's lack of consistency.
The inconsistent writing makes sense. I thought about getting into it when it was popular but heard you had to sit through like 20+ eps before it got good. That turned me off cause ain't nobody got time for that lolThe show isn't bad, but doesn't deserve the accolades that most fans think it does.

Same! A lot of ASMR is just deeply uncomfortable to me—like even the most innocuous of ASMR stuff, like, just whispering into a mic, is the opposite of relaxing for me.Some ASMR makes my skin crawl, but not in a good way. I don't understand why someone whats to sit and listing to some person online licking their microphone for an hour...also gross.
Really Why, I know it's suppose to be relaxing..But Why.
The chewing ones are what bother me the most. The only ones I ever listen to are without talking or mouth noises, where people are typing, writing with pencil on onion-skin paper, crinkling through paperwork, etc. As someone who enjoys writing and occasionally drawing, it’s oddly satisfying to me lol.Same!

It's always better to be overdressed than underdressed!The idea of “overdressing” is mostly just silly. Yes there are situations where wearing certain things is inappropriate, wether it’s for safety reasons or for being at an event with a specific dress code but I genuinely just like suits and ties, and I want to wear them without being treated like I’m ”overdressing”. It’s not a flex, I just like them and genuinely feel more comfortable and focused in them.
People say those kinds of clothes were performative and I agree salespeople made it performative, but if you’re going to be wearing shorts and a polo at an office job because it’s “casual” then say someone in a suit is overdressing, I think that “casual” attitude is also a bit performative and more expectant than it lets on. If they want to wear it and they’re chill, let them.
Ironically I finally wore out my tie last week and, unexpectedly, felt like people took me more seriously/gave me more respect with that on. It’s pretty much the most basic tie I could have worn, too.
edit: It’s kind of invalidated by the expectation for a lot of women to wear makeup anyway. Like if they have to prepare for and perform like that for every event anyway, isn’t that overdressing too. At least it’s not every profession. Now obviously don’t like underdress or show a lot of skin, because work isn’t the place for that, but I just don’t see how business suits are particularly distracting.
