sry for being another annoying anon. i just wanted to say that, at least for me, my initial problem(?) with the don't vote thing was less so with me being a biden dick rider and more so with the fact that america already has a voting problem (i'm pretty sure only like 65% voted in the 2020 election) so i wasn't sure if it would have the desired effect a lot of ppl wanted. i assume that its meant to be viewed as part of the protests for palestine and other types of boycotts right?
idk please delete this if there's nothing new to talk about here
So the "vote uncommitted" campaign specifically is something that the Palestinian community emphasizes. Idk if you know much about Palestinian community population numbers in different places, but a lot of the key/important states have large Palestinian or Arab populations. Michigan, a swing state, is blue because of the cities like Dearborn and Detroit. So we are asking especially people who we know would have gone out and voted, to take this stance.
For some people it's a moral ideology, that we cannot imagine living in a world where Biden willfully gets elected despite his genocidal actions. Like, to us, it kinda just feels like a spit to the face for him to get elected by people who claim to support Palestine but still vote for him in the end.
But also, honestly, I really don't think Biden will win either way. He definitely already lost Michigan. Chicago is like Palestine central. New Jersey has a Little Palestine there.... there's just a lot that im pretty sure no one will vote for him, even before all this happened.
So yeah, there's a few things going on.

thinking about horror film au marauders.. (tw. lotta gore)
lily the nerdy, bossy character that comes out with a giant axe and brutally beats up the killer/s to the shock of every other character
peter is either the bargaining character that tries to bargain and give the killer/s what they want just as he's about to die. or the character secretly on the killer's side that's revealed at the end
definitely giving wolfstar the making out whilst a killer is in their house/car/woods
mary, dorcas, remus, and lily all turning to each other wondering which of them is gonna die first, when they realise they're basically in a horror film cause of the black character dying first trope (i watched the blackening yesterday and the tagline "we can't all die first" gave me this hc. very good film. highly recommend)
sirius is the resident horror film expert that tells them what the killer usually does next (im imagining someone dying and everyone is just screaming over the dying body and sirius is also screaming but then adds in "this is exactly like that scene in wrong turn!"
the screamers are probably mary, remus, and james. not a definite though. i can see it being other people.
marlene gets the most jump scare scenes and emmeline gets the most hearing creaking and footsteps
james is the best at fighting but absolutely hates blood. feel like there needs to be a scene where he's like punching a masked killer and is doing SO WELL. and he gets the killer on the ground and is about to pull the mask off when the killer pulls out a knife and stabs at his hands and chest and shit. and he just screams and backs away staring at his blood until he faints.
as marlene dies, she clutches dorcas' hand and whispers "the lesbians never get a happy ending. apart from fear street... why couldn’t this be like fear street?"
the final girl HAS to be mary. ofc.

honestly its so disheartening to regularly see shit like kinning or shifting or whatever theyre calling that get so shit on by most people, or to have the meaning change to something more tame and palatable for most people. i believe in that shit in a spiritual/religious kind of way. but unfortunately other people like me can be real fucking annoying about it in an easy to make fun of way so i probably shouldnt express that shit unless i want to be made fun of as well.
like even if they're being cringe about it and even if theyre not doing it for spiritual reasons like me maybe dont? make fun of them? for being cringe? and going "stupid idiot doesn't know its not real"?? yeah i dont think these people should be insisting this is scientific when its very much not but also like hey leave us alone maybe
