Thinking about workin boys and how Hidgens' story is not recognised as being queer and is instead criticised for being about men, but at the same time Hidgens refuses to relate to women and sees the genderswap as an insult to his story. The way a gay man's story can't be told because it's seen as patriarchal but the same gay man can't see that it's still a queer story when the characters are all women.

Shakes the Starkid Fandom by the sholders. BILL is Paul's best friend. Not Ted. Paul babysat ALICE for BILL. He offers to get BILL a caramel frappe from Beanies. He's comfortable with BILL. BILL is his friend. BILL. BILL WOODWARD. WILLIAM WOODWARD WHO IS PLAYED BY ACTOR COREY DORRIS. HE IS PAUL'S BFF.

off topic to the absolutely amazing and brilliant new game changer ep, but i just have to say how much i loved hearing jiavani and demi be referred to as she/him and he/they, respectively, so naturally by sam and the cast. i don't think we'll see mainstream media refer to, let alone cast, genderqueer and gnc people with such normalacy.

obviously they have been referred to correctly on other shows but the constant uses of pronouns in the "count the rice" song just made it really prominent. idk im just so happy

catherine might be the first game changer player who understood the assignment, immediately failed the assignment, figured out the assignment better, told everyone else the assignment, and then failed multiple times cause she truly cannot describe pictures (or name songs). player of all time. i love seeing someone who clearly gets and loves game changer and is just plain bad at games. representation for all of us.

There has to be a gnarly case of classic fandom misogyny behind people deciding that Ted's whole "people who are alive and people who are fucking dead" speech was about Pete, who's only a background character in this show, and Ted never even mentions, rather than Charlotte, who is pretty much the only person that Ted is shown to genuinely deeply care about and her corpse is literally right in front of him in that scene.

The woman he was in love with but couldn't have anything beyond a workplace affair with was just shot in front of his eyes because he left her alone with her already infected husband that she couldn't let go of but sure, he was thinking about his brother that we haven't seen him interact with in the entire hatchetverse other than their cameo in black friday and the start of abstinence camp where he makes him get out of his car and walk to the camp because he got scared to go back there. Sure.

been thinking abt hatchetfield lore in the context of ttrpg/dnd and i cannot get oath of devotion paladin general macnamara out of my head

Have you considered the desperate lengths Ted would go for even mild affection? Hey Melissa, Hatchetfeild ape man, Time bastard. He’s willing to warp himself and abandon who he is if that means he’s being even mildly loved

This fandom has such weird takes sometimes because they’ll literally see Ted plead for Charlotte to leave her husband so that they can be together only for Charlotte to get infected and be shot in front of him in the next scene that then leads to Ted giving a extremely impassioned monologue about how everyone is dead and then the fandom will be like “WELL THIS IS CLEARLY ABOUT THIS GUYS BROTHER WHO HE NEVER INTERACTS WITH IN THIS AND ONLY SHARES ONE SCENE WITH IN THE WHOLE CANON OF HATCHETFIELD”

[half-infected-emma]

i am seriously so sick of this. i do not think ted really thought about pete being dead by this point. before “join us and die”, the biggest thing on his mind is his fight with charlotte, and then he sees her infected and learns that means she’s dead. OBVIOUSLY he’s gonna be devastated by that. i like spankoffski bros fanon okay enough (i’ve contributed to it a little, not much but i get it), but the subtext of that scene is him grieving charlotte. he’s upset about charlotte being dead.

Hey, Meowlissa!

[ashtxeman]

if paul matthews had a flavour it would be cardboard.

[half-infected-emma]

pokey isn’t as obsessed with paul as tinky is with ted (which i also think we exaggerate), but i don’t think this fandom is ready for that conversation
