No offence, but if you think Stranger Things should've ended with Mike joining Jane and them escaping together to Iceland without ever their friends, then I hope you trip into a pile of mud during a rainstorm.

Happy Late Birthday, Jane Ives ššŖ»
Your death should have been more respected, people should have felt bad for you because you died right after winning over what was haunting you your whole life, you should have lived for yourself and yourself first before your found family & friends.
Iām sorry people only gave a fuck about a boy, all they about was a bunch of
āHe really loved her so much šæā
āShe should have gotten married to him šā
āHe got the worst ending šā
āI believe she survived and reunited with him ššā
āHe lost his girl āļøā
Instead of how awful, misogynistic, and unfair is YOUR ending for YOU not HIM
āFriends? No, thanks BESTFRIENDS š¤Ŗš¤Ŗš¤Ŗššā comments are genuinely funny and ridiculous (like how El is to Mike) like how they treat Mike and Willās friendship the same as how we treat El and Mikeās fuckasss toxic relationship.
Itās true that Mike called Will his friend and best friend but at least he didnāt call him ridiculous or a superhero who needs to charge his battery, itās genuinely like hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby memes.
I wonder how their standards are going irl.
Remember how Mike at the start of Season four Mike brought El spring flowers
and in the end of season four we see El holding a whitered spring flower?
That could have been a symbol for a coming Mileven breakup
Because despite Mike telling her he loved her once, El still might feel like he doesn't understand her enough, doesn't love her enough to say it when she is not dying
Their relationship whitening over the course of season five just like the spring flower
And season 4 was about El's independence arc. That season implied that El's lab arc and Mileven are over. Season 4 was supposed to prepare us for Byler. But idk what happened in the writing room
bylerlumax you will always be famous
āIf you hate on Mileven for being ātoxicā, then you should hate on Lumax too.ā
I personally love both Lumax and Elmax but not so invested in them
Lucas didnāt pressure Max to find or help with his friends or relatives.
Lucas saw Max for herself, not as a superhero.
Even if they break up multiple times, Lucas yearns for Max and gets her back easily everytime.
Lumax didnāt need a verbal confirmation for their love.
Lucas didnāt prioritise his bestfriend over Max.
Lucas didnāt call Max āridiculousā or invalidate her for having a breakdown.
Lucas stayed by Maxās side in the hospital repeating the same song for 18 months.
Lucas did more than waiting on a walkie talkie or making a theory about Maxās life (instead of making a move).
Lucas didnāt remind Max of her abuser.
Lucasā touch was able to get Max to the real world.
Lucas stayed with Max despite the risk of her racist abusive brother knowing about their company.
Lumaxās relationship definitely had flaws but these two were able to be beyond middle school sweethearts.
Byler and Stonathan are almost the same thing. You canāt hate on one of them for being āmisogynisticā if you love the other.
You think that Bylers are automatically misogynistic if they love the ship, because you see them as El (the girl in the love triangle/angle) haters who want to remove her from the picture and want her boyfriend (Mike) to cheat on her with her brother (Will) or whatever.
But you love Stonathan, a ship that involves 2 boys who one of them is/was canonically dating a girl. Does that mean you hate Nancy (the girl in the love triangle/angle) and want to remove her from the picture by making her boyfriend (Johnathan) cheat on her with her ex.boyfriend (Steve)?
āBut Jancy wasnāt endgame and they broke upā So is Mileven wasnāt endgame but death separated them (if they didnāt break up pre-S5).
āYou canāt cheat on a person who you donāt date anymore.ā You also canāt cheat on a person who is either dead or miles away from you.
āStonathan is a fanon ship that no one expects it to happen, but Bylers wanted their endgame.ā Then youāre shaming a group of shippers if they took their queer ship seriously unlike lots of shippers with their ships.
This is how the show treats their female characters btw:
Jane: raised in a lab, kissed a boy before she knew her name, dated before knowing what she was allowed to like things, her bond with her best friend is nuked despite her literally restarting her heart, dies to "end the cycle" and in her FINAL moments she's not allowed to be anything else than Mikes girlfriend, her montage only consists of her and Mike but of course no one cares about that cause "aww mileven montage"š... Symbolises "the magic of childhood" but didn't even have a childhood. Her two possible endings were literally death or marriage.
Max: remember when she got out of Vecnas mind by thinking of her happy memories with Lucas and her friends? Sike she just needed Lucas and for the rest of the season, she's just his girlfriend and that's all we know about her future too, so much for "there's more to life than stupid boys". Has an arc about grieving Billy, but her best friend? Nah.
Nancy: for 4/5 seasons, she's treated like a prize to be won between two boys, could've abandoned that in season 2, but NO, that needed to be bought back. Spends all of season 4 developing her and Robins friendship (after 3 seasons of not giving her any friends) just to abandon it in season 5 because female friendships doesn't matter.
Robin: through mutiple seasons, she's potrayed as hating tight clothes and frills, just to make her wear that in the epilogue. Part of the only queer relationship who are broken up by the epilogue because "not all high school couples last".
Joyce: treated like she's crazy for most seasons. In season 5 she's reduced to being Wills mother while having about 1 interactions with Jonathan the entire season. All we know about her future is being Hoppers wife.
Erica: stereotypical black woman. Could've been fine if they involved her in the plot, but in season 5 she's solely used to be funny. We don't know anything about her ending because she's "tough and noone cares about her".
Kali: brings her back after almost four seasons. She was already a hated character and they made her even more hated by creating that stupid suicide pact. Offscreen, she's been abused so badly she feels as death is her only way out, and instead of proving her wrong, they actually kill her off and claim "her story was always supposed to end here". Doesn't help that she's a poc...
Vickie: literally just a side character and love interest. Could've made the only queer couple last for at least some representation, but no "not all high school couples last" (unless you're straight). And this just breaks my heart considering how much their story meant to Amybeth...
one of my favorite byler arguments is is telling them to imagine Lucas and Dustin as Mike and Will
like imagine Lucas going like: we're friends Dustin. WE ARE FRIENDS
mike wheeler: the queer coded character who never got to love out loud.
he canāt even write it. nor say it.
#byler
He also avoided it. Who cornplates the show will notice the āI like youā card that El had from him
Can we agree not to forgive the Duffers even if they confirmed Byler or Rovickie?
Or if conformity or love wins gate happened.
Letās not praise directors or creators for a marketing trick or a plot twist that caused months of queer tears and disappointment.
Being humiliated by the GA is very enough to not forget what happened because of their writing choices (even though they got humiliated themselves with Milevenās ending)
Rating some Whippa ships i found in the fandom:-
(Note: self and oc ships not included)
1- Qhippa (Quinn x Whippa)
Art by @watercat72 on tumblr
6-7/10
I kinda see it but not my cup of tea. I think police and law people would dislike the duo because of how they got away from what they did.
2- Whiplee (Whippa x Koilee)
Art by @koriloveswhippa on tumblr
11/10
MY FAVORITE ONE. I think their chemistry is cute and I wanna get rid of my writersā block to do something for them.
3- Whipjoy (Whippa x Joy) (both alter egos included)
Both Arts by @muddaisy on tumblr
7.5/10
The ship kinda ate ngl. But I prefer the canon joymoe (sorry).
4- Whippa x Janana (not sure if itās a ship but Iāll include it anyways)
Art by @cluelessthecoolest on tumblr
5.5/10
I donāt see it.
5- Whippa x (Mitch, Hacky Zak, and Gremmie)
Post by @alaskacoolkid1 on tumblr
3.5/10 with Zak and Gremmie
4/10 with Mitch
I donāt believe in straight Whippa. But some bonus point for Mitch because I think the ship dynamic would be funny.
6- (Whippa x Prudence)
Edit by @reecesplotdevice on tumblr
6.5/10
The ship might be cute opposite attracts but I like cooper x prudence more.
7- Doan x Whippa
Photo by @chloe_butterberrys on instagram
2/10
No
Doan is a real person and again I donāt see Whippa with a man.
8- Whippa x Gabitha
8.5/10
Interesting a bit too much.
Itās just my opinion.
If there are any more Whippa ships, tell me about it/them.
And Mousse x Whippa sibcest shippers, GET THE FUCK OFF.
People who choose Mileven are more than people who choose Byler.
But Mileven fans who are invested and creative about their ship are MUCH less than Byler fans who are.
General Audience, basic media consumers, and people who donāt understand how fandoms works; choose the canon, hetero, easier, basic, popular option without actually caring about the depth of it.
Thatās why you see Milevens repeating the āwe have the canon šā when you point out how little their fan-media is.
These people just act superior to the āfanon crackā ships because their ship is ācanonā, but itās basic and passionless to just consume what the official media gives you.
While lots of yāall praise S1 & 2 Mileven, I still canāt take them seriously. Especially when they barely united and that was the era where El knew the LEAST about the world and the most era where sheās NOT ready for romance.
Mike cared about El the most in this era because he was a better character then.
Finn and Millie (especially Millie) were just cute kids and THATāS IT.
You donāt have to love Jane/El for #their hypocrite asses.
You can love El/Jane as a Byler and everything, Love her as a character and whatever.
But DONT try to prove to Milevens and El stans that you love her. Because no matter what you do for her character, their pov is always the same āyouāre a Byler, then youāre a misogynistic El hater and you want her boyfriend to cheat on her.ā
Even itās not true, you support womenās rights and your Byler scenarios have Mileven as a broken-up couple or one of them is not present in the otherās life. Cheating Byler is majorly about Will cheating on Carlton NOT Mike cheating on El.
However, arguments about it always go the same, like if you were arguing with a wall not a human being behind a screen.
Theyāll show you tweets and all these things even if we all know that Milevens are the ones who are bigots who hate Will and make disgusting jokes about him more than any Byler who just has the courage to criticise Jane without being called misogynistic.
So, leave them with their projections & victim plays, and donāt force yourself to love a character just to try making a part of her fans validate you.
Both Mike & Jane love the idea of being loved and normal btw.
Thatās why theyāre dating even if they have the chance of be too close platonically as theyāre through the same thing.
When you are police informants and siblings who were criminals but now run a seedy nightclub full of criminals.
