Honestly I Think My Funniest Thought Is The Image Of Someone Sitting In The Theater For Spiderman No

We talk about how in Stranger Things each group is living a different story genre, right? The kids are in a constant mystery, monster, treasure hunting Goonies story. The teenagers are usually in a horror slasher film. The adults are dealing with governmental conspiracies, be it American or Russian.

But you know who code-switches like nobody’s business? Steve Harrington. That’s what makes him such a wonderful character.

In s1 he goes from Romantic Triangle Comedy to Slasher Film Monster Hunting in a single scene and fully dives into it. S2 sees him joining the Spielberg genre gang with the kids, taking the “reluctant teenager tagalong” role on stride, not once complaining or missing a beat. And then! And then!! He goes full Russian conspiracy in s3, as his group figures the mystery out, infiltrates their base, undergoes torture, etc. Steve keeps up with each genre like a chameleon.

Maybe it’s because his stakes in this are oddly external. They are a choice he makes.

Unlike Nancy and Jonathan, he is not directly related to anyone in the kid or adult group… but he was briefly related to Nancy through their relationship. Enter slasher film.

Unlike the Party, he hasn’t been life-long friends with anyone involved… but he gets adopted into the group, much like Max, in s2 and becomes one of them. Enter spielberg film.

Unlike the Adults, he isn’t the legal guardian of any of the kids or teenagers involved… but he becomes the designated adult figure they all turn to. Enter conspiracy film.

Other characters have joined certain genres as they are added to the series: Max (Spielberg), Robin (conspiracy), Murray (conspiracy), Erica (Spielberg), Eddie (Slasher). And you could argue that as the seasons and groups morph, they each dip into other genres. Nancy and Jonathan did conspiracy quite a bit, Hopper has had his fair deal of monster hunting, the Cali gang is going through conspiracy right now, the Hawkins kids are dealing with a slasher… but no one does so as seamlessly or consistently as Steve Harrington does.

Anyway, I am obsessed with how Steve, despite his apparent lack of obvious stakes on the main Upside Down plot, by virtue of caring for people and choosing to help, has become such a central piece to the Stranger Things narrative, touching so many threads and fitting into almost every corner of the plot. Just because he is, to his core, a nice dude.

andrew garfield's peter saving MJ from falling in no way home is the most iconic moment in spider man, nay, the ENTIRE mcu history

charles_leclerc How I masterminded my way into catching my girlfriend by surprise with the fact that I actually am a Swiftie:

1. Adore how passionate she becomes when talking about her favorite artist

2. Let her rant about album theories, which "Taylor's version" we get next, and finally listen properly when she explains the folklore love triangle

3. Learn Taylor Swift's entire discography, from debut until now

4. Pester the whole grid in helping me get The Eras front row tour tickets

5. Surprise her with the concert tickets and just watch her have the time of her life (surprised that I know the lyrics to the songs)

6. Just when she thinks the night ends at the concert, take her to a magnificent dinner and propose using a "Paper Rings" reference.

isahernaez Oh my god the big surprise is finally here! Congratulations, you two 🥂

notes: this took some time to make lol ANYWAYYYY thank you so much for reading and lmk what u guys think! 🤍 tumblr is giving me a hard time right now apparently the formatting is weird in ios devices 🥹 like the bold texts are all off n shit and it wont let me fix it 😭

“Did you tell JJ?” (insp.)

don’t

the last time i sat here, a friend of mine promised that they wouldn’t let me go. the last time i sat here, i was reassured that whatever would happen, id have them by my side. the last time i sat here, they held my hand and told me that i wouldn’t lose them. the last time i sat here, they said they wouldn’t give up on me.

and i think that is what hurts the most.

not only did you go back on everything you said that day, you also gave up on me.

so next time, don’t sit there and don’t let them make promises to you because life has its own way of going about

and during those times, the people who promised they’d stay are nowhere to be found.

squid game is such a good way to show how even a "fair game" can screw with people's lives and degrade their worth due to lack of FAIR and equal opportunities.. like the rules were absolutely fair. They were allowed to leave if a majority agrees, everyone was treated equally and all special preference was destroyed.

But if we're all debt ridden, and our chances of survival in the game are higher than in a society where capitalism broadens income inequality, thus trapping the lower classes in debt they possibly cannot repay, would we quit the game? If I have a better chance to repay my debt in here, having witnessed the death of 455 people before winning the final prize, than to scramble around in a world that will never give me an equal chance to repay all the debt I had to take, shouldn't I be taking that chance?

It's easy to sit on a throne of privilege and talk about how we should have valued human lives over the prize money. A lot of contestants did that too.. until they walked out and realised that they couldn't afford being a good human anymore. Their debts took it all away, and now? They can either get the tiniest chance surviving at the end, or they can die trying.

The game, as we saw in the show, had been going on for years. Not because it was well hidden, but because there were always gonna be people with low income, and with debt on their hands, and a society that won't let them earn well enough to pay it back. You can always take more loans to pay off your loans, of course. There's the "gangsters", banks with high interest rates. But fair opportunities? You can only get fair opportunities in a situation where your probability of earning is equal to everyone else.. and that's what the contest gave all these people: a chance.

A chance to be equal. That's something society can't give, but certain rich people gave this away at the possible cost of death.. and people had no chance but to take it.

Squid game isn't about the game at all. It's about how society and capitalism can destroy what it means to be human, and how some people will never be able to afford it at all.
