You....you mean I actually have to prep for my finals now

#ao3 #oh just kill me atp #granted my only final today is on western culture in the classical age #but still

AND ANOTHER THING. I hate the fact they made Will sympathize with Henry/Vecna. Will's character arc is so clearly an allegory for childhood sexual assault and I'm sick of the whole forgiving your abuser thing. It is such a harmful and weird narrative to push, especially for Will.

#although maybe I'm giving the duffers too much credit #they probably don't know the difference between an analogy and an allegory #will byers you deserved so much better #stranger things #will byers

I know deep in my bones...this is all Ronald Reagan's fault

#queer character? sidelined #female characters? annihilated #POC characters? nerfed #for a show about outcasts it sure seems like the outcasts are the ones that get screwed over #stranger things #kali stranger things #eleven hopper #will byers #nancy wheeler #robin buckley #mike wheeler

Oh there's people that liked that I am appalled two times, I'm not even talking about Byler, basically EVERY storyline was fucked up and badly written, the battle was over in 2 minutes and the dialogue was horrible what the hell are you people smoking

#they added a whole new dimension and monsters for what?#the big bad they've been alluding to for seasons was taken out by a little fire and the magic of friendship

No, no I think it's great that they reduced the personalities and screen time of literally all the female characters. Yes let's kill the young POC girl who has suffered abuse her whole life. EXCEPT we need to leave all the white men alive and their characters will be flushed out with happy endings. Hmmm? Oh is that the canon lesbians? Let's only show one of them in the epilogue. And our female protagonist who has only ever wanted to be loved will end up completely alone.

#god no wonder your wife divorced you #they'll hide their bigotry behind a curtain of empowerment #but its not #stranger things #eleven hopper #kali stranger things #robin buckley

What I think a lot of people don't understand when they say Byler isn't queerbait is that, while some subtext is in the show, most of it comes from marketing. The Duffer brothers and Netflix milked Byler for all it was worth because they were making a profit. That's what queerbait is about, not the queer people themselves, but the profit to be made by exploiting their identities.

#the pushing of the colors blue and yellow directly parallel the blue and red of the Klance era #hi yes queer college student here #i know what i'm talking about #stranger things #byler #will byers #mike wheeler

Okay so we bring back the brown girl just to make the audience hate her more and then we kill her. We prove her right that she will never find happiness and the only way to end the cycle of abuse is die. Awesome, awesome.

Call me Hamilton cause I'm about to rewrite this fuckass season like I'm runnin out of time

#the potential this season had just to be squandered by 2 men #best believe there WILL be a possession arc and an actual final battle #stranger things #byler

Why does it feel like they used to chat gpt to write the script? The scenes are just so static, it reeks of AI. I've seen more natural scenes written by a 13 year old on wattpad

#wtf were the duffer brothers doing?#like did we seriously get klanced in 2025 #i would've settled for a Korasami ending yknow #stranger things #byler

#FR LIKE WHAT WAS THE REVEAL OF A WHOLE OTHER DIMENSION AND MINDFLAYER IF IT WENT DOWN WITH SOME FIRE IN LIKE 5 MINUTES??

The fact that Will didn't even get an epilogue boyfriend- he got an implied epilogue boyfriend
