#personal #ok putting this in the tags cuz its just all over thw place but. few things abt my brother and stranger things #for starters im re/watching it with my brother this summer cause he LOVES it and doesnt rlly have access to online streaming #even though i think the show sucks shit now its. honestly sth i really appreciate because hes autistic and that show is HUGE to him #like he really really cares ab it #and this all isnt. like universal statements on what the show means to all autistic ppl i just Need to talk ab what it means to him #hes only seen s1 so far but its like. it makes me wanna CRY i didnt even think ab it until he started talking a lot ab it after he saw it #cause like. a story about a girl whos different and grew up closed off from others and feels separated from others and is bullied for it #but shes not a joke in the story shes POWERFUL and finds people who LOVE her. #so sth he does is he assigns people irl to characters in movies and shows he likes. so ever since seeing s1 hes said hes like el #and theres a person who puts a lot of effort into being gentle with him & making him feel loved and accepted & he says that person is mike #its like!!!! yeah being pessimistic ab the show onlineis easy #but idk how to explain how Huge it is to watch him grow up feeling set apart and crying because he feels like nobody wants to be his friend #and just to see him LOVE this show and LOVE watching el onscreen being celebrated for who she is as a person. like thats Huge for him #and its huge to SEE secondhand like jesus man #but yeah i just needed to put that somewhere. i love him very much #but yeag we're gonna start watching soon. this moderately shifts topical directions #but basically ive been thinking ab it a lot because the new season is out and i want to watch it w him before i leave #but im SO worried ab showing him s4 if this is bad im gonna feel SO bad ab showing it to him #and theres sth about what that says ab how the shows gone thats SO pathetic im yelling. #anyways. thats not a jab on my brother im just saying i hope the duffers DONT fuck this up cause goddamn #but yeag
