This blog is mostly a reblog dump (with occasional analysis posts) but here’s a guide to navigate this blog featuring my current fandom activity levels (so you know what content will mostly be featured) and tag guides (in case you wanna explore and dig out posts from specific fandoms).

Current Active Fandoms

Stranger Things/Byler (primary special interest right now that’s still going strong despite the mess that ST5 was. I have a organised tag guide for it down below. Press keep reading to have a look).

MDZS (Expect a lot of reblogs from here - tags frequently used #mdzs, #mdzs meta, #wangxian, and #wei wuxian).

(also reblogging stuff from other mxtx novels but not to the same extent as mdzs: #mxtx, #tgcf, #svsss)

Miraculous (my longest fandom and this blog started bc of this fandom. as well as reblogging, this is the fandom I do post for quite a bit, hence expect content from this fandom whenever new episodes are out. most of ml content is tagged under #ml spoilers (as I post/reblog when new episodes are out). sometimes I tag the episode name (the tag formal is usually “ml episode name” or “episode name spoilers). you can check out the general tag “#miraculous” and individual character tags like #marinette dupain cheng (it’s usually the character’s full name) and ship tags as well (ladynoir and adrienette are the main ones I use)).

Genshin Impact (mostly reblog posts whenever there’s new archon quests or story quests that are interesting. everything comes under #genshin impact or #genshin version number spoilers (e.g. genshin 5.6 spoilers). I do have a specific tag for #venti as I am a big venti fan so there’s a lot of posts under that one).

Knights of Guinevere (using #knights of guinevere and #kog spoilers for this show!)

(I have only recently watched the amazing digital circus - I will be following along for the remaining episodes and all content will be tagged as #tadc)

Bridgerton (I am currently watching the new season).

Past Active Fandoms 1 (that I was really active in)

The Owl House (I was very active when the show was airing - a lot of my posts are tagged #toh spoilers as I reblogged as soon as I watched the episodes. there’s also the general tag #the owl house for more recent reblogs, there’s character tags (#luz noceda) again character tags can be found with the hashtag and full name of character. and ship tags (#lumity, #raeda, #huntlow).

Arcane (#arcane, #arcane spoilers (again most commonly used tag), #piltover’s finest, #jinx, again other characters will be a separate tag - it will be full name if they have a full name. the other ship tags are for timebomb and jayvik - they are not tagged in this post due to auto saving issues)

Amphibia (oh it’s been years but look into #amphibia, #amphibia spoilers. character tags are full names if they have a full name like #marcy wu. also ship tags are ship names (marcanne, sashannarcy)

apparently #barbie 2023 is a commonly used tag I didn’t realised I reblogged for this movie that much!

Past Active Fandoms 2 (was active a moderate amount)

Nimona

Agatha All Along

Adventure Time (a lot of these posts are bubbline. but since I was on here when f&c was airing here’s the fionna and cake tag).

The Last of Us (this is referring to the tv series and oh god I still have to finish s2!)

not really sure if this movie has a fandom but god do I love #do revenge.

Epic The Musical (it’s great! anyone who hasn’t had a listen should!)

Wicked (Watch this tag come alive once Part 2 comes out and when I get to see the live show again because god I want to!)

That's a wrap for the tag guides for the fandoms/media I have been fairly active in. Please press keep reading to view the byler tag guide below.

Byler (CURRENTLY BEING EDITED)

This fandom has the most organised tags as my hyperfixation is bad and this is my most reblogged fandom hence the entirely separate section because the list is long. Byler posting goes back to the 2022-23 period hence some of these tags are that old and during the hiatus I have tagged most byler posts with the general tags. Due to the waves of emotions ST5 put me through and the amount of changes the fandom has gone through with that disastrous ending, a new series of tags have emerged.

General tags

#byler

#stranger things

#will byers and #mike wheeler

spoilers have been marked under #st5 spoilers if you want to avoid those.

other ship tags: #lumax , #elmax, #rockie, #jancy and #jopper

other character tags (most used ones): #robin buckley, #el hopper, #jonathan byers, #max mayfield, #lucas sinclair, #dustin henderson (they’re not linked because I keep crossing the link limit).

#st5 promo

Specific Tags 1 (that have been used a lot )

#byler is endgame

#reasons why

#mike wheeler i know what you are

#milkvan is bones (yes this tag was created during the era when we used to censor mlvn’s ship name to all sorts of words)

#parallels (this tag features content from other fandoms too but it is mostly byler. there’s also the more specific but less frequently used #byler parallels tag).

Specific tags 2 (that have still been used a lot but to a lesser extent than the previous section/less relevant than the previous section)

#will byers is the heart

#mike loves will

#will loves mike

#protect will byers at all costs

#protect mike wheeler at all costs

#byler analysis

#byler theory

#byler crack

#queer themes in st

#musical symbolism

#when blue meets yellow in the west

#the cast ships byler

#mike’s monologue

#van scene

#will byers is gay

#mike wheeler is gay (old tag for ikwya) (albeit originally i used gay in this tag as an umbrella term rather than a specific label. this tag then was used alongside “bi mike wheeler” after the great wars of “is mike gay or bi” started. I do lean more towards gay mike as for me I believe that’s what narratively makes sense but I don’t think it’s that much of a big deal. whether he’s gay, bi or unlabelled, mike wheeler is not straight and loves will byers).

#heart eyes (like the parallels tag, there’s some other fandom stuff in there but it’s mostly byler).

#st marketing

#byler being soft launched

#jealous mike wheeler

#willel (definitely not a ship tag)

#tw st reddit

#milkvans being milkvans

Gate tags (although very old gates - I have not been following the hundreds of other gates developed in the past 2 years)

#scriptgate (there you go! the gate you’ve prolly been looking for! the tags “script crisis” and “byler script” were also used to refer to this incident. note: the byler script tag also has posts relating to the scripts the st twitter account started posting as a result to this incident).

#signgate

#birthdaygate

#flickergate

#mikhailgate (the tag “willhail” is also used to refer to this crack ship).

#playlistgate

Other (less used or less relevant)

#will byers the criminal mastermind

#elmike (again definitely not a ship tag)

#the byers family

#lighting

I’m just now finding out Anne Frank was bi??? OMG

[luanna801]

Yeah okay, those edits were made by her dad, a cishet person - and also her dad, a Holocaust survivor, who would have been brutally aware that when the diary was first published in freakin’ 1947, had he included anything which people could use to demonize his daughter or tar her as some kind of “pervert”, it would prevent the message he was trying to send about the horrors of the Holocaust and the heroism of his daughter from being properly understood and accepted the way he hoped.

That isn’t fair. It isn’t just. But it is reality. If Otto Frank had let this be included in the published version, there’s a large chance the homophobic backlash would have prevented the book from reaching the audience it did and spreading the message it needed to. It was NINETEEN. FORTY. SEVEN. The Holocaust had ended TWO YEARS AGO. The acceptance of LGBT identities was basically nonexistent. Otto Frank made a decision based on the time and place he was living in, about what the world at that time was and wasn’t ready to accept. 

Let me say this as bluntly as I can - I am a bisexual Jewish girl and I would have made the same decision Otto Frank did. Making sure Anne Frank was unambiguously seen as sympathic and heroic was more important. Making sure people weren’t sidetracked from the main issue of the Holocaust was more important. He shouldn’t have had to make that decision, without doubt. Anne Frank’s sexuality (however she would have identified in modern terms) shouldn’t be considered relevant to her status as a hero or a sympathetic victim. But in 1947, it undoubtedly would have been.

Otto Frank survived Auschwitz and lost his entire family (a wife and two teenage daughters) to the horrors of the Holocaust. He hoped that publishing his daughter’s diary would spread awareness and sympathy for the victims of the Holocaust. If he had to make sacrifices to do that - well frankly, so fucking be it. I don’t know who alive today has the right to judge him. 

[queenofthefaces]

Let’s also look at this thread from a queer Jewish person who brings up the fact that ANNE FRANK EDITED HER DIARY HERSELF

[rosebramblewolf]

i think its also important to note that like. hmm.

im bisexual and i had experiences like that, kissing other girls at sleepovers specifically, and it not only took me another half a decade to start identifying as bi, but all the girls i did that with grew up to be straight women.

having those kinds of feelings and experiences at that age may mean nothing about your sexual orientation.

[weemietime]

Im begging queer goyim to shut the fuck up about the holocaust lmao

[indecisiveavocado]

Yes maybe Frank was queer.

She was still killed for being Jewish. We do not know how she would have identified, because she was killed because she was a Jew. She was not your blorbo, she was not a fictional character, and it’s disgusting to talk about her possible queerness while erasing the aspect of her identity that got her killed, namely that she was Jewish, especially as antisemitic attacks against Jews are at a record high. You can’t talk about Anne Frank without talking about her Jewishness. And you should go read People Love Dead Jews right now.

[hermthejewishwyrm]

I think we should just take Anne frank away from goyim permanently.
