rewatching skam and skam france to remember that there's actual writers out there that don't hate gay people
Rb if you still love Mike Wheeler after s5
truly baffled at the difference in quality between vol 1 and 2-3. like what is going awwwnnnnnn
i am still not over this like, how do you go from sorcerer to this?????? granted the duffers didn't write sorcerer so there's our answer but STILL how do you fuck up this bad
everything the duffers say just makes everything worse, like they really don't know when to stfu
interesting that the same year stranger things premiered, both eyewitness came out and og skam was on it's 3rd season, both of which featured major gay storylines, both of which people still talk about 10 years later. and i mean for chrissake there's been 5000 remakes of skam in every country BECAUSE of the popularity of the 3rd season's gay storyline. and it took stranger things 10 years to say, yknow gays exist something something the 80s!!!!!
actually yall should go watch those, they say more in less time and more beautifully than the duffers could even conceive in their little heterosexual brains
i just think one of the worst things that could happen as a writer is if your audience leaves your work feeling absolutely nothing. like nothing about them has been changed, nothing has made them feel anything. like your work just happened and then it stopped happening

Gotcha so El was never meant to be an actual character with her own wants and dreams, those past 4 seasons were, what? Just fucking around for fun? No, she’s not a REAL character, and she’s not worthy of a genuine resolution, she’s an idea :) like Peter fucking pan or something idk
WHAT THE FUCK KIND OF SHOW IS THIS
honestly this could have worked if they hadn't been so determined to hinge most of her development the last 2 seasons on her relationship with hopper and mike
and the thing is, they really could have leaned into the personal tragedy of mike's character. that mike is unable to cope with his feelings unless he writes through them, all his friends move on and overcome their trauma but not him. he lost el, and he lost will, but he doesn't care as long as theyre happy. that's all that matters. but he's still stuck in his fantasies, they provide him comfort. like clearly that's what they, in their fumbling attempts, WANTED to say but they were so fucking scared of doing anything interesting or actually upsetting the status quo they sat there and pretended like mike was alright in the end too
Byler not being endgame is lowkey extremely painful from Mike's pov. He couldn't say ily to the supposed love of his life in her "final" moments, never finds out about the painting lie that literally saved his crumbling relationship, heteronormativity killed his longest, softest friendship, never finds out about will's feelings for him giving him powers, never gets to escape the cycle of conformity, never got to make his own choices, never got to break free from the narrative he was chained to. RIP mike wheeler, you could've been so much
all this "you need to find your vickie!" talk during the season just for vickie to not even be robin's vickie 😭
lowkey always knew noah's little hap-satisfied was him realising he had to manage ppl's expectations and not like, have ppl think he lied about a good ending for byler
they gave mike and hopper this beautiful scene about not letting guilt rule your life.
and then proceeded to let mike's guilt rule the rest of his young life.
who was this finale for???????
When people are complaining about Mike being unresponsive in s5 vol2 but this was literally him in every other season
He's always repressed his emotions and it's lowkey part of his character.
so mike really loses will every single season and in the end never really gets him back huh?????? i mean why else would you end with heroes lmaoooo
will byers i’m so sorry you deserved better. but also. also. mike wheeler i’m so sorry you deserved better. no they will never make me hate you, only the writers that fucked you over. i genuinely feel horrible for mike, because what the fuck. he’s depressed and stuck in the past, while he shares stories about how everyone else has found happiness and their own place in the world. once a favourite character always a favourite character, man, i don’t care, i love you mike wheeler, you did not deserve to have been dumbed down to a cardboard cutout and you also did not deserve that ending.
They can rip the closeted Mike Wheeler storyline from my cold dead hands I couldn’t actually fucking care less
THIS IS HIM SOBBING WHILE LOOKING AT WILLS FUCKING DND BOOK. HIS THUMB IS BRUSHING BOTH OF THEM TOGETHER.
Im not okay oh my god
