How to Save Your Own Life, Erica Jong

[acipphic]

I am Imtithal from northern Gaza. I live in very difficult conditions because of the war and I struggle to provide basic necessities. I was displaced with my children 17 times in search of a safe place. There is no safe place. We suffer from a shortage of water, food, medicine and milk. Because of the famine war that we have been going through for 10 months, I need your support so that we can survive. Even if the support is simple, it helps my family a lot. Please donate and participate.

please donate to the gofundme in their bio and spread awareness of this person’s situation!!

i was chatting with @lovemike0 and we noticed something interesting regarding melvin’s dynamic! i don’t know if this has been posted before, but i thought it was something to take note of.

in these three scenes, it showcases an unfinished conversation and lack of proper communication. the themes are similar (love), mike cannot explain or articulate himself around this subject, and el is the one who is always confused/left in the dark.

they remain unresolved, or interrupted, until s4’s scene in which mike spews his infamous monologue.

it’s interesting to compare this to byler, where mike does not have trouble articulating himself nearly as much.

i wonder if this will continue to parallel into s5? or, perhaps, the resolution mike chose nips him in the back. either way, i think this is a cool piece of evidence to back up the trait of “uncommunicative” that we attach to milkman.

Thinking about how I had to argue that Will was gay for multiple years like what was that all about

[emblazons]

Ok I'm making yet another gifset as requested by the people and was forced to rewatch the ending of ST4 and...guys lmao.

the fact that they show WillElMike

then El walking off in front of INSANELY clear pairings

Then her picking up the dead versions of the flowers Mike gave her when they reunited at the airport at the start of the season

Show determined Solo El in front of the pairs again

....only to DIRECT CUT to Byler Alone

then to Jancy getting closer in a protective way

AND THEN to Jopper PLAINLY holding hands

...only to put solo determined El in front of three couples again

And end with Mike and Will dead center of the now handholding Jancy and Jopper (+ far off solo El) for the final shot?

The Duffers could have slapped me clear across the face and it would have been more subtle than this. This is as plain cut an exegesis toward the (full) development of mlvn ending + romantic byler as you could hope for. Perfect fingerprints-on-the-gun, skin-under-the-murderer's-nails level evidence. How were people even arguing the meaning of this? Knowing how the rest of the season went?!

Show don't tell, 'a picture is worth 1000 words" and people STILL claimed naiveté girI no wonder America is falling into nonsense again people are media illiterate af

Finn made a new Stranger Things playlist today, STurn - it has some very interesting lyrics

- Angst in my Pants (🥴😳)

… Ahem… alrighty then!

- Don’t Ask Me to Explain, by Montreal

This reads as if it’s from El’s POV… reminder that on her ST2 Netflix playlist, one of the last songs was Jolene…

@greenfiend you may be interested in the blatant sexual references in this play, given your excellent theory that byler will have sex at lover’s lake (x, x)

This, from Promises I’ve Made, makes me nervous for El - recall Millie’s supposed shock at El’s ending. Promises are a m*leven motif, so it’s fair to assign this to that relationship, but otoh the lyrics are very gay so…

Most excitingly, the last song on STurn is Just What I Needed, the last song on Will’s Castle Byers Classics!

As for preceding songs, Breakdown’s lyrics are incredibly gay - and while Block Rockin’ Beats’ lyrics are sparse, The Rebel Kind is all about being yourself and has lyrics tying in to Mike in Hellfire.

"They won't split up the MAIN couple of the show >:(((" and the main couple of the show in question is a girl whose arc has actively included her becoming progressively more self-reliant and less dependent on her boyfriend across ALL seasons + a boy who has been staring wistfully at his best friend's lips and reaching for his hand since they were like 12

how more obvious can they be before they "straight" up make them kiss lmao

[bylerworld]

it always gets me how will's plotline introduction in season 4 is that "he's been acting weird" and that "there's someone he likes" but then we cut to will and he's acting normal and the only one acting weird is mike and we start off strong with whatever the fuck this was
