God has made it so that Princess Bubblegum will one day die. That her kingdom will be without leadership, that her people will suffer as a result. He built a world where death and pain are essential and inherent to existence. To be a good ruler, the Princess must defy God's intent. She must work as if the cruelty and indifference of God can be subverted by the acts of man (or radioactively mutated candy). That we can be better than our creator. That rather than succumb to the endless void, we can make a flame that burns forever. And if a few atom-bombs and psychic candy-sphinxs result along that path, so be it. No such sins compare in wickedness to submission and surrender to the cosmic tyrant.

That third eye on a stalk, though. Did you ever see "From Beyond" (1986) with Barbara Crampton. Boy, was she cute.

I love that this show can freely explore the weirdness of religion and the ramifications of tampering with life itself just by not calling god "god".

Also, fuck almighty that part with the bee and flower gave me chills.

Sweetness corrupts.

Absolute sweetness corrupts absolutely.

If the more recent episodes are any evidence, she is descending into Lovecraftian-style insanity.

I thought it was telling that her DNA produced an absolute monster, whereas Finn's DNA produced a hero that saved the world from eternal damnation. Is there some foreshadowing there? Who knows!

This is the creepiest cartoon of its generation. Not since MTV had the Maxx have I been so oddly creeped out by an animated series.
