Reblog If You Love Garlic Bread, I'm Trying To Prove A Point To My Father.

Yellowjackets truly has everything. it’s a love story. it’s a tragedy. it’s a 90s high school sitcom. it’s a survivalist show. it’s a supernatural drama. it’s an investigative mystery. it’s a story about the complex dynamics of female relationships. it’s a story about the horrors of being a teen girl. it’s a study of the lasting effects of ptsd. there’s cults. there’s biblical imagery and greek mythos references. there’s milfs. there’s murder. there’s horror. there’s comedy. there’s cannibalism as a metaphor for desire. it’s literally got everything.

alicent just hits different no one else in HotD is doing it like her. no one else is embodying the tragic figure like her. like 'what have i done? but what was expected of me?' 'all i wanted was for someone to say they were sorry for what happened to me.' 'our hearts were never one. i see that now.' like cool girlie I'm gonna start stigmata-ing in your name my nail beds are bleeding suddenly. follow the trail of blood to my unresting place we're forming a church in her name

No because they seriously ruined Mike’s character 🥲

You know what I’m really confused about? Why? Why did they do all of this with Mike’s character? Why the eyewitness parallel? Why is the first song on his Spotify playlist smalltown boy? Why did he look like that at the end of season 3 after el kissed him? Why was he awkward around Will for no reason, he doesn’t know that will likes him anyway. Why did they leave all these little hints, more than just this actually, only for him to end up straight and in love with El? Did they intend to make him gay and chicken out, or was it a strange coincidence. I don’t know. All I know is that my heart is fucking broken after seeing him in these last two episodes. If he’s not gay, then I don’t have sympathy for him because that means he really just is an asshole, and that fucking sucks.

i love you female characters who make selfish choices they know will be bad for everyone. i love you female characters who think they're making the right choice but make things worse. i love you female characters who are making the right choice but noone else understands it.

But I’m still in love with Max and Robin and Nancy and El and Steve still gives me bad comphet 🥲

Hannigram:

i don’t understand how literally everyone isn’t insane about byler like what do you mean. they’re everything. they compliment each other. they’re compatible in every possible way. they’re meant to be. how are you not foaming at the mouth over it. how is your brain not rotting at the mere thought of them. i just ,

"Milkdud is endgame!!" bestie they are literally a lesbian and a gay dude 🙄

OMG THIS IS FUCKING GENIUS OMG MY JAW IS DROPPED RIGHT NOW. Dude I got chills reading this.

I don't know... is there something weird going on with the specific memories that were mentioned to the mindflayer/Vecna during Will's possession... ?

Like... Vecna's done something to those memories, those dates... like he's stolen them, or hidden them from the minds of Will and the others who were present at the time. Because they had power over him last time.

March 22nd. Will's birthday. It's just... gone.

Drawing the rainbow spaceship? Building Castle Byers? Maybe they're gone too.

And what about "Do you remember the first day we met?"

Mike saying "I feel like my life started the day we found you in the woods" to El because the memory of meeting Will on the swingset, asking him to be his friend... it's gone.

alicent criticism often strikes me as having the same vibes as the people watching a horror movie and going "i would have never done that, the characters died because they made stupid choices, i would have easily survived". alicent had her life stolen from her when she was a teenager forced to marry an old man and have his children. it's something so horrible that i feel like a large amount of people (and some characters, like rhaenyra) simply can't fit it into their worldview that something like that can just happen to you and instead go "well if that was me then it wouldn't have fundamentally destroyed me as a person. in her situation i would've turned out fine and my poison wouldn't be dripping through. i would easily be a good mother". i saw some people found it a stupid writing choice that rhaenyra thought alicent could stop the war because it is "obvious" that alicent has no control over what is going on, but i think that failure to see the real horror of alicent's situation is what destroyed their friendship and drove them apart. from the beginning rhaenyra thought alicent was choosing to marry her father. in return alicent failed to see the way rhaenyra was being targeted for grooming by daemon. i think they both engaged in victim blaming because "my friend is acting hurtful towards me, so i'm mad" is actually easier to deal with emotionally than "my friend had her entire life and personhood stolen from her and so have i"
