So I’ve heard from people of that time that She -Ra was the better of the two MOTU shows.
Is this true if so why ? Genuinely curious. More clever episodes better plot lines?
I even heard people go a to say in terms of 80’s shoes He-Man was...kinda the worst compared to Transformers or GI Joe.
Curious to know why that seems to be the consensus
Is this true if so why ? Genuinely curious. More clever episodes better plot lines?
I would say more clever episodes, and the plot line in "The Secret of the Sword"/the first 5 eps was vastly more interesting than anything MotU had done with Adam and Skeletor. As a relationship, I mean: Alan Oppenheimer's Skeletor is a delight to watch for himself. Compare 80s She-Ra episodes like "Friendship", "My Friend, My Enemy" or "Horde Prime Takes a Holiday".
Some people disagree, and He-Man has gotten more revivals.
Transformers and GI Joe... Sunbow Productions had different staff writers, and I would say Larry DiTillio, Joe Straczynski and Bob Forward were a more talented group. DiTillio and Forward are highly regarded in the Transformers fandom for Beast Wars a decade later, while Straczynski innovated American TV with his 5-year serialized space opera Babylon 5. As for the spec writers, they were sometimes the same people (Paul Dini, Christy Marx, etc). The big advantage Sunbow had was outsourcing the animation, letting them get more fluid and flashy results for similar cash. This is more noticeable for GI Joe than Transformers, which could be absolutely dreadful with animation errors because apparently no one knew how to animate robots consistently.
Shit, I'm going to have a reblog a whole post of someone else's for the best example of that.

what is Silco's favorite song in the FnF universe?
If he's in a bitter mood, and has slugged one too many shots of bourbon:
Masters of War
I just want you to know/I can see through your masks/You that never done nothin'/But build to destroy/You play with my world/Like it's your little toy
And, if he's in a wry mood, and mellow on good whiskey:
Have Some Madeira, M'Dear
She was young, she was pure, she was new, she was nice/She was fair, she was sweet seventeen.
(This is a very fancy Edwardian-style tune that's essentially as Problematic as Baby It's Cold Outside
Have I mentioned this man is absolutely The Worst?)

small update on me trying to fix the bob's burgers ao3 tags and contacting support but they seem to have fixed the spelling in rudy's last name in his friendship tag for @ltwharfy and while they didn't replace the bob belcher's mother tag with lily belcher, if you search up the character tag for lily belcher all the fanfics that were ever tagged with "bob belcher's mother" also come up :) We did a good thing for the bob's burgers ao3 tagging community

Tie-dyes accomplished! Took a bit longer than expected, but I also took the time to REALLY saturate all of the items. Like... the kit said for use on up to 50 items and I used it for 5 😂 but that's because if you only use the amounts that they recommend, it leaves a lot of disappointing white gapping in the designs and fades out wayyyy too quickly after a couple of washes. It's like the garlic of fiber projects, the recipe never calls for enough.
Anyway, looking forward to rinsing them all out on new year's day! Ending/starting the year with a new project feels like a good plan.

CHAPTER 6 - TEMPT OF FATE
August 17th, 1945 - 0730
Camp Toccoa, Georgia, United States
War Correspondent Esther Armstrong
It was a tempt of fate for the men to actually take the liberty of cordiality towards either Mercy or I, it seemed. Their stand was not looking or speaking to me; like they thought doing either would make me disappear for good. Lucky for them, I tried to ignore them that way as well. I had a job to do, one way or another, that was not about to be stopped because the men did not respect me as a person or as a correspondent trying to do her work where it was permitted. If it meant spearfishing with salty one-liners on the off chance they would actually see me as a human being then I would do unto them as they have done to me. Ma always liked the golden rule for a reason. Just hoping God will not be too angry in the proceedings.
- Esther Armstrong, from Stroke of Luck
