RANDOM BLACK KLOK MEMBER: Wait a minute, you were the voice of Facebones this whole time? We seriously cracked Falconback before we figured out who the voice was?

Rewatching gravity falls
How THE FUCK was Stan painted as the bad guy
FORD WAS AN ENTITLED LITTLE BABY
Yes what Stan did was rash
But maybe that wouldn't have happened
IF STAN'S PARENTS DIDN'T RAISE A LITTLE NARCISSIST
So Ford gets him KICKED OUT
I will forever be on Stan's side
And it makes me mad that Dipper just automatically assumed Stan was a dangerous criminal trying to kill everyone
I think a lot of Ford haters would also be Stan haters if we had a book full of his most private and vulnerable thoughts too.
You telling me that if Stan kept a journal he wouldn't have a moment where he thought about his brother for too long, got angry, and wrote some shit about how Ford is just some stuck up academic living easy off his grant money and doesn't care about his family? That after reuniting with Ford after 30 years, he wouldn't furiously write passages about his ungrateful brother gallivanting around the universe having fun adventures, growing out his sideburns, and not showering while he was working tirelessly to bring him home? That at the beginning of summer, before he really got to know his niece and nephew, he wouldn't make some snap judgements about Dipper being kind of a wuss, and express frustration at having to keep these snot nosed kids busy so they don't go snooping around and ruin everything? "Stan wouldn't do that! He loves those kids-" Yeah, he does, but he's also curmudgeonly and closed off and wouldn't know them yet. He'd be have first impressions (like everyone does) and write down those PRIVATE thoughts and frustrations in a PRIVATE journal.
"I just don't like Ford because he's an asshole-" SO IS STAN. STAN IS A MASSIVE ASSHOLE. Most of the time his assholery gets played off for laughs, and he either gets his comeuppance or learns a lesson by the end of the episode. Plus we have the whole series to get to know his better qualities and be endeared to him. Ford has much fewer episodes to work with, he's beefing with a character we already like, he only gets to learn his lesson at the end of the series, and we have a book full of his private thoughts that he doesn't say to anyone's face.
Ford is at a huge disadvantage here. I've noticed a trend in the fandom of Ford's flaws being amplified and exaggerated while Stan's get smoothed over. Neither of them are nice people. They've both done some fucked up shit. If you can look past that in Stan to see his good qualities and how far he's willing to go for the people he cares about, you should be able to do that for Ford too.
sometimes a family isn’t blood-related.
sometimes it’s five band members who have become each other’s brothers. and sometimes one of the brothers is also the mother, and one brother is the father, and two of the brothers are still brothers, but the remaining brother is a sister.
and sometimes one of the brother-brothers tries to become the father to his other brother-brother, but that just makes the mother-brother and the sister-brother jealous until the father-brother snaps them out of it.
and sometimes all these brothers need an additional father, who is also their manager, so the brothers are his sons but also his bread and butter, but then he becomes the head priest of their church, so his bread and butter sons then become his spiritual saviors.
There was no particular idea here, I just found a picture on Pinterest that was interesting in terms of lighting, and I wanted to practice.
Well, the boy looks so that you want to feel sorry for him. We can imagine that something is really bothering him.

hiiiiiiiiiii !!! ^^🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷 i saw this and got inspired to make my own like swap au thingy. :))
Cedric and little Wormwood
how it feels to log on to tumblr and read a shallow ford analysis post with at least 4 counts of victim blaming
Yup, that's Ford's niece.
Really leaning into the cartoonishness.
MY FIRST POST/drawing HAIII uncle and niece on the way to a metal concert ;)
sketches.
I saw a post about how Bill "isn't ACTUALLY the villain" of Gravity Falls, given his ✨tragic backstory✨. Y'all know you can be sad and evil at the same time, right? You know Bill maybe feeling kinda bad for his actions does not make him the VICTIM of his own actions, right?
He gleefully drew little doodles of 12-year-olds in puddles of blood and you people are like "but his parents are dead." YEAH. HE KILLED THEM.
year later redraw !!! of this!!!
man.
Yes, I returned to the fandom with various sketches.
1. Disco Girl Ford.
2. Fiddleford with the cool moustache.
3. Bill is going through a breakup. It's not going so well for him.
Y'ALL LOOK (FROM THE WEBSITE THAT FINALLY GOT FIXED)
FORD & MABEL BONDING LOVERS WE'RE WINNING
i'm so sad you ship billford.... im not gonna lecture you i just. sighs. i love your art so much this is really upsetting. :(((
We gonna have this conversation again?
At this point go take it up with Alex, cause it’s pretty much canon.
It’s REALLY hard to ignore all the language surrounding Bill’s relationship with Ford and how he pursues him, he follows the dating advice he gives in the book to a T
- Leaving dead rats/mice for Ford
- Ford is the only “partner” that Bill is openly vulnerable with and gives him some insight to his past and his experience (also referring to him as a partner)
- The “Love Cage” advice he gives, where he said go trap your date and sing them a song. And if you remember, Bill traps Ford in the Fearamid and sings to him “We’ll Meet Again”, which was a song written for WWII soldiers who were away from their lovers
“I’m Your Puppet” by James & Bobby Purify that Ford gets in his head, a love song, that also places Ford in his role in the relationship.
THE FLIRTING “you can call me anything but late to dinner”, “I think I’m starting to like you” and saying the same thing then saying “jinx”. GET A ROOM
Both got jealous when the other thinks they’re with someone else. Ford thinking Bill’s “inspiring another scientist” when he doesn’t see Bill for a few weeks, and Bill calling Fiddleford a “third wheel”.
Then when they break it off, Bill goes on a sad drunken rampage. Which you don’t do for someone who you don’t at least care about, especially not someone who’s just a friend
Bill gives Ford 3 days to turn the portal on and asks himself “What was I, a saint? And why did I do it- some misplaced sentimentality”
Even Mabel basically said Bill has a thing for Ford “you’re like a super needy ex” “go crush on someone else’s uncle”
They were definitely more than friends, from what I see it was mostly one-sided on Bill’s part.
Maybe Ford did feel something, it was definitely a relationship that made him feel good, more in tune with his brain and body, and gave him a big boost of confidence. He went to Bill for comfort when he was stressed and vented to him about stuff. Bill made Ford happy…while it was good anyway.
Was this a healthy relationship? FUCK NO!
Bill was mentally and physically abusive, manipulative, and possessive (LITERALLY). He spiked Ford’s drink after Ford said no to having one and got him fucked up. Bill took Ford’s body on a joyride and did horrible things to Ford that we see in the pictures and thing we DONT see in the video. All to make him comply and get the portal running. Calling Ford his PROPERTY.
But it’s a good story of overcoming an abusive relationship, which is great representation tbh, Ford is happier and has his family to love him now.
Normally Alex is great at leaving things up to interpretation, but I can’t ignore the intentional and not at all subtle way he depicted Bill and Ford’s relationship. There’s even seeds of it in the interview with Hana and TGFF
Go take it up with Hirsch, cause I’m just using what he gave me
he just loves music🥺
Okay I just gotta say, before I log off, I've been thinking about the fact that these "lost journal 3" pages exist in TBOB, and that Bill says they were ripped out by Ford. So we know that post-Weirdmageddon, Journal 3 was fully restored, including pages Ford ripped or burned out in the 80s (as well as any deterioration that happened since then), but the pages in TBOB still weren't in there.
What that means is that, post-Weirdmageddon, Ford must has ripped these pages out.
So I can imagine Dipper, super excited, running to Ford like "Grunkle Ford! Look! Your Journals! And they have so many new pages I've never seen before!" and then Ford going "haha that's so cool - WAIT," and then just grabbing the book and ripping out a bunch of pages, some with the embarrassing Polaroids, some with the darkest and scariest parts of his trauma, the way he fell for Bill and his lies, some of his personal memories with Fiddleford, etc. and then just handing it back to Dipper.
Dipper, pointing at the pages in the fireplace: uuuuh what were those
Ford:...... nothing.
It would explain why we, the readers, don't have access to those pages after he throws them in the Bottomless Pit at the end of J3.
