YES
No but my dad actually did this at McDonalds in the 70s!
So here’s a true story: my father, sometime in the 70s was looking for his first job. He went to the local McDonalds and told the staff, [manager’s name] said I was supposed to start today. They took his word for it and started training him and by the time the manager saw him and asked who he was, people just said “oh that’s the new guy.”
Somehow this actually worked. My dad worked there for a couple of years as a cook. He even won an award plaque which he had on the wall until the day he died.
Thank you to the Steven Universe community for saying such positive things about this scene, we thought you might like to see the pencil test. These are the shots from “Change Your Mind” that I animated and that Kendra @bcakesbaxter tied down. Thank you Rebecca for letting us be a part of your beautiful show. Thanks to our Drew @poseidonsbitch for scanning it all.
My favorite part of the episode is White Diamond calling Steven childish because he has been acting emotional and fragile for the entire story’s arch. This portrays a really mindset that “adults” often displays: that adulthood is about being flawless and emotionless and feeling superior to everyone, that opening up emotionally is a flaw, like those parents always telling their children “don’t cry, you’re not a baby”, “why are you always so sensitive?”, “you’re not supposed to act like this”.
When White Diamond tells Steven he needs the Crystal Gems because they are inferior to him, she is actually talking about herself, her court, the Diamonds, Pink Diamond. She needs those who she considers “inferior” and “weak” so she can continue abusing them to assert her fake supremacy and perfection above everyone else. This is often how toxic adulthood works in our society.
