@insane-faller
i read the Book of Bill recently. i have many thoughts, but one that stuck with me most was the ancient prison of monotonously obscene theatrics that Bill Cipher frantically erects around himself to shelter his fragile ego from the truth of his pitiful existence. it’s something i relate to on a spiritual level, so i drew this in self-expression
not sure how much it helped TBH
Hey, fellow Fallers.
So, I have a complicated relationship with Gravity Falls nowadays. Gravity Falls was my best friend for a good near-decade. I researched the show in great depth (both its canon lore and real-life history), had multiple daily rituals and routines (checking updates on the fandom, keeping journals documenting things GF-related, etc.), did multiple creative projects (like building a doll’s house of the twin’s attic or compiling every publicised event where Alex Hirsch spoke about the show, for example) My contributions to the fandom, whether they be artistic, written, conversational, or shrine-al, are scattered across thousands of posts on at least a dozen platforms over the last 11 years.
I’m not sure why I spent every waking second of so many years thinking about how I could come up with new ways to express my appreciation for the show, or even where the sheer amount of passion my appreciation came from. I think it might’ve been a raw admiration of the show’s interactive nature and courage to address heavier topics, but it could also just be my tendency to be distressingly obsessive.
But for a while now, my life’s took an interesting (?) turn, and for the last four-ish years, whenever I think of Gravity Falls I am reminded of how disconnected I feel today from the person I was when I discovered this show. This show, that I spent so long loving, appreciating, endlessly thinking about, has slowly become second to the numerous clusterfucks I’ve found myself in these past however-many years. So I’ve distanced myself from the fandom for the last two or three years, trying to forget the disappointment I feel when I’m reminded of this show, and in essence, what I used to be.
But when I realised that 15th February, 2026 would mark an ENTIRE DECADE since the show ended, I knew I had to acknowledge it.
I might not be the same person I was then, but I still remember kneeling by the TV, crying at the jumbled, raw mixture of emotions the finale of this show was able to convey. I had spent years before then coming to love the show, its secrets, its whimsy, its ability to make me feel these almost-primal emotions. So I think I owe it to the show and myself, both who I am now and was then, to make another contribution in memory of the show. Not as grand as a $3,000 shrine-room, but I hope you’ll all still appreciate it.
I love you and still miss you, my weird old friend.
So if you don’t know me (which, I don’t blame you, I’ve been silent in this fandom for the last four years because of #life), I used to have a room dedicated to Gravity Falls (v.1 and v.2 here), but before that I had a closet shrine. I had to move temporarily last year and pack up all my stuff (the GF room was also long dismantled by then because of, again, #life), but I’m moving back which means Organisation Time!
I found remains of said closet shrine while doing so and I thought you guys might like to see. These are all from late 2015 to early 2016, while the Weirdmageddon arc was airing. It also doubled as a place to archive my stalking research on Alex Hirsch and his family. No idea why I was so interested. I even think I still remember who most of the people in these pictures are. Ah, some things never change.
I’m just a triangle trying to save you.
From the delusions society gave you.
Gravity’s a lie, and so is the sky.
Trust in the all-seeing, all-knowing eye!
How... interesting. I would much rather ignore this for now.
Bill Cipher is dead, do not change that into false information for me.
This triggered a feeling in me I forgot existed. Thanks, Anon. Neil, stay away from my ear worms.
Hey fellow Fallers, just woke up from my five year nap. Heard about The Book of Bill and decided to come back here after half a decade and post my attempt at a collection of all editions + signed copies. Just need a signed copy of the original red version… it’s so close I can almost taste it nnnhnhn
yeah that sounds about right
1. He gets what he gets.
2. I LOVE THE WAY YOU DREW THE HOLY AXOLOTL, OH MY GOODNESS HE’S BEAUTIFUL
(3. he got an appearance in the box set, too! forced to live the rest of his life in the Pines’ summer, how ironic)
I never knew Alex Hirsch was such a big Simpsons fan!
I'm glad he got to be a part of his favorite cartoon of all time :*)
[ID: A tweet by Alex Hirsch that reads: "From age 8-18 I didn't miss a single Simpsons premiere. I read the guide until the pages fell out, memorized every line, knew the writer of each ep & could tell you the season by the size of the characters pupils. I'm in total disbelief that tonight I just did a cameo on the show." Attached is a still from The Simpsons showing a table of various aspects of Loki, including Bill Cipher, who is shouting something to someone offscreen. End ID]
so proud of him!
A Happy 22nd Birthday to Dipper & Mabel!
You can’t really take a selfie with a redwood and expect to capture the scale of the tree, but, it’s the thought that counts! You can show the scale of the trees by including people in the picture, but the people wind up being very small. (Thus, a provided detail as well as the full piece!) I would make a joke about the Pines and pines, but, redwoods are conifers but are *not* actually pines (they’re in the cypress family).
I’ve had redwoods on my mind lately, and of course, they feature prominently in Gravity Falls. My idea here, though, is that they’re in northern California, hiking around on the trail of some cryptid or ghost or anomaly. (Actually I know what I meant them to be on the trail of; perhaps I’ll get around to a sequel showing that someday.)
How long do you think it took Ford to get the phone in selfie mode? (he might be one of the smartest people in the world, but he did spend thirty years away from any remotely human technology) Beautiful drawing, by the way!
Happy Birthday Mystery Twins!!! I made a special birthday cake this summer. It was very fun and happy to planning this. (my family ate this at 1week.)
WOAHHHH. I had to stop for a minute just to admire this, oh my goodness. Everyone, STOP SCROLLING RIGHT NOW AND LOOK AT THIS BEAUTY. This is the most beautiful thing I’ve seen all month!
Happy Birthday to Mabel and Dipper!
Happy Birthday Mystery Twins !!!
AHH, look at how happy they all are!! Such a lovely scene, please take me here and never let me go back
It’s Dipper and Mabel’s 22nd birthday! 22, a double of 2, or “double” in number form, which is also double digits. I think these two need more cake for such an occasion!
note - also posted on @/Insane_Faller, my Twitter account. please don’t repost
It’s Alex and Ariel Hirsch’s 36th birthday today!!
(copied from my Twitter because there’s nothing more I want to say here)
Hi, fellow Fallers.
I'd like to sincerely apologize for not having done anything in celebration of the Stan twins' birthday and 9th anniversary. I'm not doing too well right now, probably won't be for a while. I know there's no excuse for having completely abandoned any acknowledgement of these beautiful characters, show, and their history, but I thought I might try and explain myself. I feel so guilty, and I am so sorry for not having done anything more than wishing the Stans a happy birthday and the show a happy anniversary. Hope the rest of you had more fun than I did today, stay weird!
So, apparently the clip of Dipper singing Disco Girl from the vinyl soundtrack was found through a Fortnite ARG of some sorts? Did anyone else have that on their 2021 bingo card? Here’s a more in depth explanation of what the discovery looked like by the person who found it.
Thoughts on this??
*STARTS CRYING* *SHAKING* *THROWING SHIT AND FLAILING WILDLY* *KICKING MY LIL LEGGIES*
I FEEL EVERY SINGLE EMOTION YOU DO RIGHT NOW, THERE ARE GENUINE TEARS WELLING IN MY EYES. The little strains in his voice?? As he sings to his heart’s content? And then the STUTTERING OVER HIS WORDS AND TINY WHISPERS WHEN STAN COMES IN - SPEAKING OF WHICH, “welp, you’re a child wearing a towel, so I’ll leave” !!!!
I JUST... I NEVER KNEW THIS COMBINATION OF 70′S POP MUSIC PARODY, AWKWARD DIPPER PINES, AND SNARKY GRUNKLE STAN WAS SOMETHING THAT COULD BRIGHTEN MY LIFE UP SO MUCH. THIS IS A GIFT AND WE SHOULD BE ON THE FLOOR BOWING DOWN TO THE GODS THAT HAVE GIVEN IT TO US RIGHT NOW.
Hey do you wanna see the picture that has me ONE mischief away from getting banned on The Discord server
I don’t know whether to yell at you or praise you and your existence
