the thing about riverdale is i'm not a gatekeeper im just a bitch so i need to know if you're going to take me seriously when i say words like cycle and genre and gay gene juxtaposing the serial killer gene and THE AUDIENCE KEVIN THE AUDIENCE and comic books being both a sacred and cared for symbol of nostalgia but nostalgia is a monster story that'll kill this whole town and "Many examples of Camp are things which, from a 'serious' point of view, are either bad art or kitsch" and "You got attacked by a friggin bear? Damn. No wonder why you're all messed up" and Riverdale's queer sensibilities have never been on better display than in it's Finale where there are Gay Characters, characters that are queer, and characters who arguably live as an ode to the unlabeled and undefined AND one time they ended an episode by cutting out archie's heart in a parallel universe which made me clap really hard.

I’m losing my fucking mind there’s a whole god damn online database full of illustrations for illuminated manuscripts, you don’t need a subscription or anything. And it has a search function so you can enter key words for whatever you want to see. Right now I’m looking for fucked up illustrations of the apocalypse in Revelations, like so;

If you click the images on the website they come out super high def too. They also have a couple bestiaries, as well as some illustrations of the Divine Comedy. This is my new best friend I’m so fucking excited

we should never have taken sea monsters off of maps. just because we know what's there now doesn't mean they couldn't have stayed as geographical mascots or something.

Broke: vampires are vulnerable to the trappings of Christianity only, particularly Catholicism, no matter how dubiously applied. (See: Van Helsing's Communion wafer grouting).
Woke: vampires are vulnerable to sincere faith of all kinds, and atheist vampire-hunters need to believe very strongly in the Power of Friendship or their love of Star Trek to get by.
Bespoke: vampires are vulnerable to the faith that they followed when they were alive, and hunters tracking down an ancient vampire are obliged to learn about Neo-Babylonian theology or Middle Palaeolithic bear cults.

kevin saying he couldn’t remember what it was like before veronica moved to riverdale (she moved there in the first episode) -> betty not remembering any of her or her friends’ lives after high school until narrator jughead told her about them (she couldn’t remember because it hadn’t happened on the show yet. do you understand.)

i unironically love riverdales dialogue. why is it that when succession does unrealistic shakespeare-esque dialogue its treated as an actual stylistic choice but when riverdale does it it must be some wacky writing quirk that cant be taken seriously and is only attributable to poor writing ability. other than the fact that one is riverdale and the other is succession i mean. i love intentionally unrealistic dialogue. the writers knew that nobody uses the word demimonde or alliteration ("mobsters and molls," "belly up to the bar with the big boys") in real life-- anyone who is familiar with the word "demimonde" also knows that its an archaic term from 19th century france-- but using it in veronicas monologue added to the effect of creating a 50s mafia movie/old-school dynastic drama atmosphere inherent to the lodges. im not even here to defend the artistic value of riverdale i just get really passionate about defending "unrealistic" dialogue because it can be such an interesting stylistic choice and the point of fiction isnt to create a world identical to reality

favorite Riverdale posts of all time
So I’ve been collecting screenshots of funny Riverdale posts since s5 (cuz I’m a dumbass and I didn’t understand how tumblr works and I’m easily embarrassed) so I could look back at them and giggle on a bad day. I’ve got like 114 or something. In honor of the finale I’m sharing 20 of my favorites. Thank you @elmoskingdom @morrigan-disapproves @doctorcurdlejr @jushiro-ukitake @bleaksnails @garbagequeer @hatewife @mothmanchronicler @zenon-karr @fizzlehead @philcollinsenjoyer and many others for making me laugh on many a rainy day. Thank you for making this incredible, beautiful, once in a lifetime shitshow even more fun.

Hi. My name is doctorcurdlejr and you may recognize me from the Riverdale posts you stomp and spit on like a street rat when they fall upon your dash. I want to take this time to talk about a very important problem that's impacting tens, if not twenties, of people around the globe: The Series Finale of Riverdale (2017-2023, may it find peace in gay death).
For the next few days, a number of LGBTQ+ persons, ones you may even know, will be mourning the loss of their gayass television series. It is with this in mind that I ask you to withhold your deep seated, dreadful, mean spirited, and ugly hearts to show compassion to the fans you stumble across. It is more than acceptable to shrug your shoulders and move on from what you don't understand. I give this warning not only thinking of my fellow fans, but of YOU, random tumblr blogger. These people are liable to whip around and maul you like an attack dog if you choose to insult the show while they observe this truly unfortunate period of mourning.
So, I beg of you, follow the ethos of an 8 year old child and THINK before you curse the name of Riverdale within the next week.
