  1. okay I know I keep posting plans but here are final plans:

     

    dec 26: watching new su ep that airs the 24th
    jan 1: watching new su ep that airs the 31st
    jan 7: watching new su ep that airs that day
    jan 17: drunk art stream hopefully unless I don't get the day off
    jan 21: watching hour long su special that airs that day

     

    (art stream that was supposed to be last week got cancelled because apparently my whole family was off work and my sister came home and nobody gave me any warning until the day before???)

    date uncertain but sometime next week I will likely have another drunk art stream followed by a group video call & jackbox games please respond with days that you are free if interested. gonna get my work schedule tomorrow sometime most likely

     

    got my work schedule this will either happen wednesday, thursday or friday next week depending on what day most people say they're free

  3. date uncertain but sometime next week I will likely have another drunk art stream followed by a group video call & jackbox games please respond with days that you are free if interested. gonna get my work schedule tomorrow sometime most likely

     

    as for new SU episodes, we'll likely do a group watch for the first one that airs on Dec 24th on Dec 26th bc people will be busy with christmas. the group watch for the one that airs on the 31st may or may not be moved to the 1st depending on how many of us are losers without plans that night

  4. episode titles and dates are out

     

    dec 17th is legs from here to homeworld which has been out on the app for months

     

    dec 24th familiar

     

    dec 31st together alone

     

    jan 7th escapism

     

    jan 21st battle of heart and mind

     

    idk wtf they're thinking premiering new episodes on christmas eve and new years eve but oh well I probably won't be busy

  5. Dec 17 new episodes of steven universe airing weekly anybody who watches is welcome to come join a fun watch together thing with me and whoever else I can gather

     

    most recent episode is legs from here to homeworld if you need to catch up before then. the one airing on the 17th might actually be legs from here to homeworld instead of a proper new episode since that ep was only released on the app and hasn't aired on tv yet, so the watch togethers might start a week later idk yet

     

    more details to come closer to
