So like how does tumblr work?
I haven't been on this site for like years but the way posts can be made here have always been enjoyable to me. Like I can write so much stuff.
but i also do feel like im screaming into the void of the ever expanding internet, like an astronaut lost in space desperately fiddling with their comms system hoping a passing spaceship finds them before their oxygen supply runs out... maybe not that intense but like yeah.
am lonely.

tbh lately I've felt like something tied to the back of a truck and dragged along the highway but whatever

You know that one tweet where it's like "in college my roommate was like I'm gonna have so many girls and maybe some guys over here and if you don't like it, grow up" but then he brings one girl home the entire time they're at college together and they end up married?
That, but steddie.
Cause I always imagine Steve figuring out he's bisexual and being super chill about it, because generally he is quite a chill guy and he knows about Robin so he's experienced at loving a queer person and doesn't see why he can't do the same for himself and like, there's an active hell dimension right under us Robin, don't you think we have more important things to stress about than me wanting to kiss guys as well as girls?
So his initial reaction is basically "oh, I guess I'm bi then. Huh. Hey sweet, double the potential dating pool! Robin, get rid of the you suck board immediately cause I'm about to woo so many guys!"
But then he meets Eddie and all that shit goes down (and Eddie doesn't die cause obviously he doesn't, why would he? That's ridiculous). And Steve kisses one (1) boy one (1) time and thinks "actually, you know, I'm good, I think I'll just keep this one"

Hiiiii I was thinking about some of the drabbles from before and everyone has History and Some Issues, but I’m curious so,, what would the ROs younger selves think about who they grew up to be? Or what would the ROs tell their younger self?
anon i am obsessed with this question... in terms of meeting their younger selves:
adegoke: his child self would be confused and probably a bit scared. his teenage self would be a little disappointed. there is a lot that adegoke had to work through to get to where he is now.
arthur: i keep going back and forth on what young arthur would think of his older self, because i’m not sure that he would really know what to think. i don’t think he would be pleased. i think the closest emotion would probably be disgust, because what a sad little life.
atticus: i think young atticus would be so pumped at how he turned out and i think that would make present day atticus very sad indeed.
avery: would be angry before any other emotion, i think, because she wants more for herself and she must have done something wrong somewhere along the way to fall so short of what she is capable of. i think that she and present day avery could have a very long talk about that, but she would need to make all of the same mistakes for herself anyway.
charlie: i guess just bewildered? i think that of everyone, charlie might be the most surprised by where he ended up.
ellis: before the start of the show? i think young ellis would be pleased that they had achieved so many of the things that they weren’t sure they would be capable of doing, and perhaps a little sad that they hadn’t done some of the other things that they thought would come easily. as of episode 3? crushingly, excruciatingly heartbroken.
florrie: thrilled, delighted, absolutely jazzed! after always being told that growing up would mean giving up a lot of the things she finds fun, little florrie would be so thrilled to learn that isn’t true.
griffin: i’m not sure how much thought griffin has ever really given to the future or who he will be or where he’ll end up, so i’m not sure he’d have strong feelings either way? he’d be like oh okay and then go back to playing hahaha
imogen: really proud of herself. imogen has had to do a lot of hard things to get to where she is and i think young her would be grateful to know that she does have it in herself to do them, actually.
nyra: would be encouraged by some parts and disheartened by others, but in general i think it would be extremely emotionally charged. they’d have a big hug, there would definitely be tears.
rowan: teenage rowan would probably be like omg cringe hahaha - she had a real Not Like Other Girls phase and adult rowan kind of prides herself on being like other girls actually because girls are sick!
syd: would be fuckin psyched, i think? syd more than anyone has really exceeded their childhood expectations.
vinh: would just absolutely break down in tears of relief. they made it, they're doing it, they're okay. their life isn’t perfect, but it’s theirs and they are living it on their own terms. also they get to make art all the time, and isn’t that just the dream.

“one day im going to have to make like a three hour long video essay that's just called In Defense of Helluva Boss” Please do. I see more anti videos than I do with defense ones. Like the ones that say season 2 is terrible even though it’s barely completed and the ones that say Stolitz is a bad despite them barely having a relationship.
no literally i am sick of seeing more anti content than actual appreciation videos but the anti talking point i see most that drives me up the fucking walls is that it's "bAd RePrEsEnTaTiOn," as if that is all that queer people are allowed to have; just the vague nebulous concept of "Rep(TM)." the fact that if a straight character is a bad person then it's just that This Character is a bad person, but if a queer character is a bad person then This Is Bad Representation Of The Community And Is Homophobic. can we not just HAVE characters?? vehicles to tell a story??? tools to craft a compelling narrative??? this is part of why Helluva/Hazbin being adult shows is such a THING because i see this get shut down a lot under the guise of "uhh well just because it's an adult show doesn't mean that it can handle whatever topic it wants however it wants" and like. yeah buddy! that's true! and that's not what this is fucking about!! when people say "it's an adult show" what they mean is that it's made to be engaged with under the assumption that you would know better than to take information to shape your worldview and perception of other real life people from a fucking cartoon! the show doesn't NEED to tell you that Um Hey Guys Just So You Know This Isn't Actually Meant To Reflect How All Real Life Gay Relationships Are because you are an adult who should already be able to discern this.
"bad rep" doesn't mean "characters that are nuanced, morally gray, or just bad people." "bad rep" would be if helluva boss was a show that said "the REASON these characters are in toxic relationships / are bad people is BECAUSE they are queer, or at least directly correlated to that fact." which is. you know. very fucking different than "these characters are in toxic relationships / are bad people because they 1) live in a classist society that actively encourages them to be their worst selves and 2) are extremely traumatized."
