Just fyi, I don’t use this blog much if at all anymore, but even so, if you ship Bughead, stan Betty, say racist shit about Tabitha/Erinn, send hate to actors/their girlfriends, are friends with the Z*mpie Cabal of Crazy, are friends with the equally crazy corner that hates Cole Sprouse, or in general have shitty hot takes about this garbage show, get off my goddamn lawn.

AHHHH I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS! IT LOOKS PERFECT!

#reblogging this here because it’s peripheral to RD #also Kathryn was my fancast for Sabrina after reading the comics way before the show was announced #so I absolutely love this #her and cole both have the perfect level of camp energy for this #I can’t wait

Everyone Can See It + She Is Not My Girlfriend = a classic

#these two are as smooth as a dirt road #I love them your honor #TABITHA LOOKS SO CUTE IN HER 1950s OUTFITS #also Cole Sprouse is one of like 2 people who can actually rock a turtleneck without looking like Steve Jobs #I appreciate that about him

And while I’m here for my annual “angry that Riverdale continues to get air time” rant, I would ALSO like someone to explain to me why the writer’s room thought it would be a good idea to take the same white girl character who *checks notes* tried to boil a black man ALIVE in the first season for his *flips through notes* ah yes… sexualization of white/white passing women…. and put her in the center of a storyline revolving around…. oh right… THE VIOLENT AND BRUTAL MURDER OF A BLACK MAN WHO WAS ACCUSED OF SEXUALLY HARASSING A WHITE WOMAN.

Like… ffs.

Still so crazy that Britta Lundin wrote and published a YA novel about bullying Jensen Ackles and Eric Kripke into making Destiel canon

#and then Riverdale said “let’s give that person a job!’’#it explains so much

#lmao this stupid goddamn show

lol @ the Riverdale/B*ghead fandom thinking they’re experts on racism and interracial and same-sex relationships in the 1950s and being wrong about most of it. I beg all of you, crack open an ACTUAL history book. If you need a list, lemme know, I gotcha, because you all are tragically embarrassing with your “Jabitha couldn’t happen in the 1950s!” hot takes.

#Riverdale #I don’t even go here anymore #how do I still see so much stupid from this fandom?#I have every tag known to man blocked and STILL #but seriously believing interracial marriages weren’t a thing in the 1950s?#my brothers and sisters in christ I beg you use google for once in your lives #the Riverdale writers are showing you all up with their research skills and that’s saying something

I saw a still? A screen grab? On my main, and so I’m here once again, but only to say that Cheronica should’ve been Cheryl’s queer ship from the beginning. Madelaine and Vanessa have the romantic chemistry of wet cheesecloth, and Choni has been hella toxic from the start. Cheronica is just better on so many levels, and the (I assume queerbaity) kiss that the two of them share this season has made me mad all over again that it never really happened.

#stupid Riverdale making stupid choices #Toni has effectively been useless for 4??? seasons now???#Cheronica would’ve been so much better and saved them on salary so maybe they could’ve spent money on kjs awful hair #or like filming outside again #alas

I just saw an article about Riverdale finally ending, and something in the article was SO funny to me because… okay, so I’ve been having a LOT of bizzaro dreams lately (and for context, most of them have been even more bizarre than the time I had a dream about being friends with Kim Kardashian and sitting with her as support on an episode of Maury where the lie detector test determined that Kanye was cheating on her… so yeah). This one was pretty tame all told, but still weird.

So literally last night, I had a dream that Cole Sprouse started working at my job. I work in higher ed in financial aid, so nothing even remotely resembling an industry or department anyway that Cole Sprouse would be in. Anyway, he and I were just hanging out in our office, talking about how he left Riverdale and he couldn’t wait to get out of there because the set environment was just so toxic. And I was like “Did you ever see the scene in Entourage where Jeremy Piven’s character Ari Gold just goes ham with a paintball gun and fires everyone after he takes over his old agency? Because I bet that’s how you felt leaving” and Cole was like “No, I’ve never seen Entourage at all” so I was like “Oh, I’ll send you the link so you can watch the scene because it’s hilarious.” So I go back to my own office (this is like, a water cooler conversation so far) and I send him the link to a YouTube video of that part of the show. And we end up (later in dream time, like a fast forward almost) talking in the office as we’re leaving for the day and he was like “oh I watched the video and yeah, that’s exactly what it was like.”

And then I wake up and I’m going about my day, and I see this TV Insider article on my main blog dash and I read it and see this???

And I’m just like ….😂😂😂

All I have to say is I wish this weirdo intuition thing was actually useful like for lotto numbers or something, instead of always being tied in with Riverdale.

#about me #weird coincidences are weird

oh, please do share your thoughts on the episode!

I probably will. I need to get them all together first. I’ll probably do a rewatch and break it down as I watch it.

No one is ever going to believe me when I say this but I swear on literally everything I have to my name that @cobrakaiforlife and I have physical notes from a long ago (like 2018-2019 long ago) planned Riverdale fic that we never wrote but discussed to absolute death that picks up after season 2, where Jughead getting attacked by the Ghoulies triggers his lycanthropy and instead of going all Jughead:The Hunger on the town, he learns to control it and turns the Serpents into a gang of werewolves. In this fic, the Ghoulies are actually hot-rodding vampire muscle for Penny Peabody, who is a power hungry witch, and her and Hiram are working together to find the Holy Grail, which they believe is located under the site of Hiram’s prison (the prison was just a front for them to dig a really big hole). During the storyline, it would’ve been revealed that Penny had stolen the Spear of Longinus from where it was being housed in nearby Miskatonic University, and THAT was what was in the crate Jughead and Archie delivered to Greendale — not drugs. A bunch of other stuff happens in the story, including the resurrection of Edward Spellman, but ultimately the planned ending was with Sabrina, Jughead, and a very old Vampire Queen in Greendale working together to save the world from Edward and Penny, who were trying to rip a hole into the Elder world (like where the Old Gods™️ of Lovecraftian lore live).

That’s a very long way of me saying that the Spear of Longinus/Holy Grail storyline happening 4 seasons later in Riverdale is FUCKING HILARIOUS to me.

#I don’t even fucking know man #also as a historian I have thoughts about tonight’s episode that… I might post about but probably won’t #I have to sort out my oh dear Satan WHY?! feelings #from my happiness that Erinn Westbrook got a huge episode and knocked it put of the park #so like… yeah

Me: Riverdale is a terrible disaster of a show and hasn’t actually been good since it tried to make the Southside Serpents the Archieverse version of Sons of Anarchy, I think it’s finally time to stop watching…

Riverdale: Here’s an entire episode about Civil Rights in America through the lens of a Black woman’s experience (!!!!!!). Also the Tate family were (probably?) involved with the Black Panthers.

Me, someone who got her history degree and wrote her honors thesis on representation (and lack thereof) of Black women in post-war media: Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit this is awesome, please don’t let them fuck this up, please don’t let them fuck this up, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY AND UNHOLY, DO NOT LET THEM FUCK THIS UP.

#I have very little context for what’s going on in the show beyond what I’ve seen on Erinn Westbrooks Instagram #(because Cole Sprouse only posts RD related stuff on his Instagram sparingly and I respect the hell out of him for that)#but I can’t not watch this episode #I am so excited and so apprehensive at the same time #because RAS handles important social issues like mental health classism racism and sexism #with all the grace of a economically privileged mediocre man #who despite being a man of color and a member of the LGBTQ communities #does not shy away from making it obvious that he’s racist and a self-hating homophobe #so I guess we’ll see #but Erinn Westbrook is gonna kill this #I am so excited!!!#don’t fuck it up RAS

Lol, I appreciate the heads up anon but I don’t care anymore. The show is terrible, has been since season 2, and I’ve finally given up the ghost on caring about it/just moved back to my main/busy with grad school applications/don’t really use tumblr anymore… but bored people gonna bored. To clarify however, no, @thugheadjones and I are not the same person. Thanks for the concern, though. 💜

For real? Yikes lol. I'm sorry that psycho stalker involved you. Hope you're doing well!

She used to screenshot my stuff, because I had her blocked on my main but didn’t realize I had to block her here too. But I have a nice little anon who comes and informs me whenever she brings me up (thanks, whoever you are!). Poking around, it’s usually to say she agrees with my Jabitha takes and my feelings about Betty being a dick, but at some point she became convinced you and I are the same person 😂 it is what it is though. This fandom is full of flakes and nuts, and there are reasons I have 400 people blocked. I’m good though! I hope you’re doing well too 💜

#rd fandom anons

Have you seen what Cole had to say about jabitha vs bughead? The bughead fans are having a meltdown. They think poor Cole was forced to say that stuff, like he's never hesitated to shade the show.

I don’t really keep up with press for the show, although I did see he put up a bunch of fun BTS photos. What did he say?

And honestly, they’ll be having a meltdown until they get their way, or until the show ends. Even after the show ends, if Bughead doesn’t get back together, they will be writing 3000 word essays about how “the beats were all theirs,” for Satan only knows how long.

Honestly, I maintain my earlier position: block them. Every single one spouting nonsense about how it’s B/J foreverrrrrrr or dragging the writers for having the audacity to tell the story they want, or shitting all Erinn or Cole… just block them and move on. They don’t have anything better to do because they’re getting next to no content, and Lili is promoting Barchie and Cole is, I’m assuming, promoting Jabitha. Let them stay pressed.
