Welcome to your local trash can

We’re in panic. Our coin went from 18 to 21.50 a dollar (and will probably reach 22.50), our products and services will be more expensive by the morning. No one will want to invest here. We’re humiliated, we were called rapists and apparently you agree. We’re threatened to be separated by a wall… Do you have idea how many millions of families will be separated? How many children will see their parents being deported? The violence migrants will receive? Old and young, we have our heads down, we don’t know what to expect. But thanks for making it clear, one more time, how hated we are for most of you.

im so fucking sorry

It’s so much scarier and more important when you know someone in this situation.
I can’t describe any better than my brother did:

“Please pray for Phoebe Callaway and support her family in any way you can. Phoebe was one of my students when I was an instructor for martial arts. She is one of the most cheerful and unassuming little girls you’ll ever meet and she really is a sweet as she looks in these photos. Phoebe has been fighting a battle with a rare auto immune disorder, but after a long and financially crushing time at Children Hospital in DC, her family is bringing her home under hospice care. There’s a link to her gofundme page with her story below. Please share this through any method you can and again, pray for Phoebe and her family.”

Please help her. Any amount helps, a dollar, 5 dollars, skipping coffee or lunch to give something or anything just, please help her. Anything you can spare, anything at all would be a huge help.
She’s the cutest sweetest little girl you’d ever meet. Smart and funny, but kind and focused, loves her dog and just, please, the thought of losing her is heartbreaking.

If you can’t donate that’s ok, everyone has different situations, but if you could share this any way you can, that increases the chances of it reaching someone who can donate. I hate it when things are about money and attention, but not when it comes to saving a little girl’s life.

Thank you everyone who can help, I do hope we can do this together.

I’m going to admit right now that I never thought I would make this theory, let alone endorse it, but after a period of uncomfortable denial I’ve realized that I cannot in good conscience keep this to myself. I think one of Connie’s distant ancestors might have been a gem-human hybrid. The words taste bitter coming out of my mouth, but I wouldn’t say them without evidence

From the beginning, we were told that there has never in the history of anything and everything been another half-gem like Steven, and that his very existence is unprecedented, and yet…

Rose: Steven, we can’t both exist. I’m going to become half of you.

How the fuck did Rose know this? There’s never been a half-human hybrid before. Hell, no gem has ever given birth before! How the could she have possibly known that he wouldn’t just be a pure human, or that he would wouldn’t just have his own gem, or that she would become a part of him rather than simply being trapped in his gemstone? This has happened before, and Rose hid that from her own team!

That brings us to another issue: Fusion

Greg: Wait, you guys are Gems. You gotta help me out here, I need to be able to fuse with Rose.

Garnet: First you need a gem at the core of your being. Then you need a body that can turn into light.

One of the problems that’s bugged me the most behind the scenes is the fact that Steven was able to fuse with Connie. How Steven’s body works has been a mystery for some time. He seems to be a mix of flesh and light since he’s able to shapeshift and fuse all the same, but if Connie was human, she should just be made of meat and bones and keratin. Her being able to fuse with anyone, even Steven, should be completely impossible by the logic of the show!

And while we’re talking about things that should be impossible, let’s talk about her being able to lift Rose’s Sword

This is a weapon made for a woman twice her size with super strength, and yet Connie wields it effortlessly in battle. Wields – not bench-presses – wields, with skill and grace. I can guarantee you that you are not going to find a 12-year-old human girl out there who can fight with a greatsword in one hand. Believe me, I’ve run experiments.

And you know what? We shouldn’t even be shocked. This was foreshadowed a while ago. Listen to this:

Connie: Okay… *pulls out Unfamiliar Familiar*

Steven: *opens eyes* *gasp* BOOOOKS! Whoa, cool cover!

Connie: It’s my favorite series! It’s about this girl named Lisa and she’s a witch! - I mean, she doesn’t know she’s a witch at first. Anyways she goes on this quest to find her father after he’s kidnapped by the mysterious one-eyed man.

And who does Connie dress up as in Open Book? 

She dressed up as Lisa, the girl who didn’t know about her magical powers!

Side Note: I wonder if that mysterious one-eyed man who kidnaps her father is foreshadowing for something

Okay, back to Connie. I think it’s safe to say there Connie having a distant gem relative isn’t as far-fetched as it sounded. If said ancestor was male like Steven is their quarter-human offspring probably wouldn’t have a gem, but since Steven canonically has gem DNA there would still be some left over traits.

The real question now is who? Contrary to the image above, I don’t think Connie is a descendant of Blue Diamond since she is still presumably alive. How would that even work anyway? Sexing up a 25-foot-tall woman is not something a human is capable of, no matter what JK Rowling might tell you. That said there is quite a bit of evidence that Connie’s gem ancestor was of the blue court. Both she and her mother resemble blue court gems

And the blue court itself had a definitively Indo-Persian aesthetic

There’s also the blue court’s ever-present connection with water, whereas Connie spent her very first episode trapped on the ocean floor

Plus there’s the fact that Connie is almost always seen in a blue or teal outfit

At this point, I’d hazard a guess guess that Connie’s gem ancestor was a Turquoise

Ok i dont usually support this kind of theory but…the evidence to it….its just….i cant help but like see that being a thing….

Cool

why would you look so much into that
