bylers when over 350k people don’t have the exact same thoughts and opinions as them

#byler #stranger things #byler tumblr #i know some of us have been singled out or humiliated by others on here insisting we’re delusional for our theories #and so you compensate by doubling down and telling everyone else their theories are actually headcanons and yours aren’t #or maybe you are someone on the other end who is fed up with bylers reaching and are sick of group think having a place here #some advice: just let the show be whatever YOU want it to be #if you think everything you analyzed is right and everyone else is wrong #congrats #you are as pathetic as the rest of the fans who think the exact opposite and also think they're right and you're wrong #we are one of over 350k ppl with differing opinions and thoughts and experiences guiding us to coming to the conclusions we do #i don't mind ppl giving different perspectives to things even if it goes against my analysis (just don't be an asshole about it) #i have changed my mind about certain aspects of the show bc of this and i have changed other peoples' minds as well #without all of us being able to say what we think we would not have near the evidence we do now #but what comes with over 350k people in one space also comes with some semblance majority that feels a certain way about certain things #it's never going to be perfectly even across the board #what is believed and what is agreed upon will always be shifting as different people say their peace and as the show itself progresses #and hell even if you're the 3% that feels a certain way about something and think the other 97% are setting themselves up for disappointmen #bask in your perceived glory WHEN that time comes #but in the mean time... me personally? #i think it would be quite embarrassing if i devoted my time on here to telling everyone else their theories are wrong and mine are right #only to end up being the one that was wrong #let ppl set themselves up for disappointment #save the celebration for when you actually secure that win #for now #id rather be on here discussing my theories/reading others' theories that aren't rooted in tearing everyone else's down to feel superior #all of this is to say it is never worth making ppl feel like shit over a fucking tv show… I’ll never get that #and this is coming from someone who has no (current) plans to say i told you so (not even to that redditor that has a 2 year timer) #bc until s5 comes out... #crazy together

thinking about The Neck Showing Scene more than I should

Shin was already about to leave when Keiji mentioned he’s never seen Shin’s collar. This one thing Keiji said managed to piss Shin off so badly that he turned around, went “you know what, screw you in particular” and improvised an offer that ended up seriously damaging Keiji’s relationship with Sara. Which took him like 5 seconds to come up with. And then it turned out that Keiji’s initial accusation wasn’t even correct. He took like 4 consecutive Ls, all of which he brought upon himself. It’s a rare example of Shin’s plans not backfiring on him horribly, and I really love it because not only does it demonstrate how good he is at making siht up on the spot, it also shows how well he knows Keiji’s weaknesses specifically.

#fully understandable that he'd be pissed at Keiji for making that accusation #by now this is the second time he's been falsely accused of something by Keiji. plus Shin knows for sure Keiji is hiding something #so of course at some point he gets fed up and goes 'oh you think YOU have leverage over me?? ok ex-detective 9.5%' #and this 'screw you in particular' energy persists through their entire rivalry #also I mean come on. we've never seen Gin's collar either and no one's out there thinking he's the mastermind #oh right. #yttd #your turn to die #kimi ga shine #shin tsukimi #keiji shinogi #keisou #keishin #gay asfjlk to know your rival so well you can come up with a way to use their weaknesses to your advantage in less than 10 seconds

genuinely these panels are going to make me ugly cry

#i'm not back for real yet i think i want to stay away longer. i'm just here to put more things in the queue and answer messages #i really enjoyed trimax vol 4 idk something about it was less miserable than 1-3 #might have been the first volume that i wasn't grimacing the entire time i read it. or maybe i'm just desensitized now. #unironically this prayer is soooo beautiful to me. give us this day our daily bread. not bread for the week not bread for a year #just enough for today. #lately when i've been praying it just looks like #please for the love of god please please please please please PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPL #things are not looking good for the community house.. lots bureaucracy with the city. and the church that funded us is falling apart #i don't know what i'm going to do if we get shut down it's the one thing in my life that's worth anything #all those kids... where are they going to go. who is going to help them. where is the neighborhood going to get their food. #in two days it will be the anniversary of [REDACTED] and i am so so so scared #just sat in my room today and fruitlessly scrolled thru jobs im not qualified for & tried not to think about thinking about killing myself #i don't WANT to kill myself i don't want to think about it i hate thinking about killing myself i will never ever kill myself or even try #but there is a demon or perhaps a ghost or evil wizard that tells me there's an easy way everything can go away. and it's A STUPID. BITCH. #please do not reply to this post i know you all mean well but i just don't think i can handle it. #talking about it i mean. and hearing people say nice but empty things. #i just wish i had someone to sit next to me. #personal #i don't want to go to church tomorrow :( it all feels so fake and i do not ever feel fed.

i started reading this fucking out of character thick of it fanfic like a week ago bc even tho i could tell from first glance it was going to be ooc i was just curious and it sounded kind of funny slash tragic. (how are you tagging grief child death domestic violence attempted suicide on a ttoi fic hello?) and i dooo like complaining And for the most part if it weren't supposed to be about those guys it would just be pretty good so im not Regretting it? but i didn't realise how many stories were in the series and im probably 150k words in. and not much more than halfway through

#and it doesnt even have sex scenes. fml #me.txt #iam also so fed up with writing that seems to romanticise women prioritising men andtheir emotions over their own personal safety/ wellbeing #like im not saying you cant Depict that but maybe lets unpack that. and not treat it as if it's just that woman's inherent personality #rather than a something shes been Taught to do #though while we're on the subject actually i dont think the way nicola is written is in character either #like i focus on malcolm bc its more egregious but nicola is not.. shes not putting her kids before herself like that. #i know losing one of them might make a difference but its not even presented like it's bc of that. its just oh im writing a woman well her #priority must be her kids! well no she is a bad mum and doesnt really like her kids so #but that didnt stand out to me so much until i started rewatching s3. #i was more like ah yes. famously anti-racist feminist ally malcom tucker who easily goes not just hours but months at a time without saying #anything homophobic and uses the occasional ableist turn of phrase in his mind but usually keeps it to himself. #i mean i can definitely understand not wanting to comr up with and write realistic malcolm tucker dialogue. i wouldnt want to. #but well the whole thing is a bit he wouldnt fucking say or do any of that #but again. i could see that clearly from the description and walked in eyes open #its good tho its given me a lot to think about at work.

lore drop

#that poll just now reminded me of my Toxic Homoerotic Codependent Female Friendship in high school #there was something obsessive going on between us because 1) i wasn't even in her friend group 2) everything she said or did was annoying #there was some stockholm syndrome situation going on. also a very succession tomgreg dynamic #you know how you invite a friend somewhere and they're like 'we're on our way' and you're like who's 'we' #and it's because they're a package deal with their partner apparently. yeah that was us but platonically. if you could even call it that #anyway her sense of humour was like that of a mean girl ie backhanded compliments and jokes at other people's expenses #always saying something that would subtly put others down. i got fed up with that at the beginning of our final year #and called her out on everything that Wasn't Good. which ultimately culminated in the Divorce #well there's more to it too but i could be here the whole day #i was so obsessed with her i misstook it for romantic feelings too and confessed to her in the middle of an argument LMAO #and then proceeded to ignore all her follow up questions. but in hindsight it clearly wasn't romantic anyway #except about a year after the Divorce she retrospectively confessed to me AND THEN REFUSED TO ELABORATE WHEN. as revenge i guess #actually the downfall started when we went to another city for an event and on the last day before the train back we were supposed to go #explore the city in what was essentially a (platonic) date except she ditched me for Some Guy she just met and claimed she had to go back #home early for a family situation and that he was giving her a ride because the train would arrive too late #that wasn't the only time she would just. abandon me like that. but it was the final straw for me #anyway. defining high school experience 👍 #the only good thing to come out of it was that she thoroughly insulted a classmate of ours that i stood up for and so i gained a new friend #who is still my best friend to this day

#okay #so #like #the willy wonka glasgow thing #and the unknown #the villain spat out by the ai generated ''script'' #the evil chocolate maker who lives in the walls and is a nebulous sort of ''him'' #am i the only person who feels a little like uncomfy about it #because like #it hits on a lot of antisemitic tropes #and roald dahl said some incredibly antisemitic stuff and his antisemitism is present in some of his novels #i doubt that the AI generated that villain from dahls books #unless they used an AI solely fed dahls works #(i mean like the oompa loompas in the book were uh well lets just say the guy was pretty fucking racist toward black people) #but its an uncomfortable correlation all the same #and like #i dont think im qualified nor feel equipped to discuss it #but maybe it says something that these tropes are present enough in whatever it was the AI was trained on #but i havent read the script nor do i know generative language models well enough to draw any meaningful inferences there #idk dude #im just #a little uncomfy about it

tbh i miss when this fandom was just really fucking weird

#delete later if my brain decides this was a bad post lmao #but look listen i dont mean weird in like the Problematic Way i mean fucking weird in the sheer amount of AUs way #YEAH ppl look back on it and cringe and for good reason and YEAH there was a lot of wildly out of character takes running rampant BUT. #man it was so . goddamn fun ok #i could very well be wearing the Nostalgia Glasses but it is rlly strange seeing how much we've mellowed out since then #i rarely see characters kissing the evil versions of themselves anymore it breaka my heart #(granted that could be thriving in other places i wouldn't know lol i only use tumblr for fandom shit) #it just makes me think like. if we didnt get so crazy with the AUs i never would have made atbb #and therefore also would most likely not have the ocs and personal story i'm working on for myself #and also maybe i would have improved at a slower rate with my drawing & writing. hell maybe i wouldn't have fed those interests much at all #im rambling at this point its just. i am in a sentimental mood for cringe rn dont look at me <3

I just got Shinon for the first time in this file. 🤣

#DCB RD Run #the story behind this is that I played PoR for a friend on stream but the Wii stopped working #it's not dead but it has a hardware problem that I have yet to determine. however I had a backup Wii #so I tried that. unfortunately it ALSO decided to have a problem and wouldn't risk discs anymore #this meant I couldn't play RD on console and had to use an emulator instead #meaning I couldn't carry the data over from my latest PoR file if I had to use an emulator to play RD for said friend #so I decided I'd do a bit of a cheat run where I just flew through PoR on an emulator #levelling people up quicker and just going through it chapter by chapter to retain the supports I had #this was the US version on emulator... and the cheats randomly stopped working correctly around chapter ten #at this point I was very fed up and I knew the EU version on emulator did keep my cheats and everything was fine there #so I decided after all the technical trouble that I was going to aggressively promote every. single. unit. in PoR. with infinite BEXP #and I was going to get them ALL to level 20 so they would ALL get stat bonuses carried over #I was originally just leaving the natural stats - what ppl got from the natural level ups is what I'd carry over #after all that I was like I deserve this it's been hell working this out. but then I had an additional idea #I decided that since I found a code for infinite usage of items that I'd bump up anyone who was #a point or two off from a stat cap for all stats like that so I did that. but THEEEEN I thought of ANOTHER thing #I was like... you know WHAT. after all this? I deserve one more thing #I stat capped ALL of Shinon and Oscar's stats knowing full well they are my absolute best MONSTERS in RD /anyway/ #I used other cheats to get through the game very very very speedily to hurry to just get the cheat file done with #but toward the end I finally snapped and handed out stat boosters to those two until they were demons LOL #and uhhh... yeah Shinon took it pretty fucking well!!!

WAIT did i ever share pictures of the turtles we had at my last job

this was when they were still babies 🥹

#my co-worker and i were talking about pets and i remembered them ahhh #my friend was walking around a lake one day and found them abandoned in a closed container and surrounded by seagulls #she couldn’t keep them at her place though #they let us keep them at work bc we were all basically threatening to quit at the time and we were a tiny company #i mean we still all quit in the end but they were adopted by someone eventually #anyway we worked with magmax and qiagen kits at the time so we named the turtles max and qia #i also wanted to name it qia bc of kaeya hehehehe #i remember coming in on the weekends to make sure they were fed and their tank was cleaned #ahhh good times #i hope they’re doing well 🥹

#unprecedented emotions in this body o mine. like. this may b surprising given the amount of bitching i do on this website #but let me assure u irl i am exceptionally patient. but right now. there is a limit and that is where we now stand #and again this is prob my fault but ive come to the conclusion that fuck these custom chambers. fuck the amount of work that went into them #fuck all of this. im not fucking using them. i will sit here with this one fucking bryophite chamber if it takes me all goddam day bc at #least i fucking trust the values. that means ill have to split up measurements by 2 days but fuck u im right abt this #the solution is: u cant fucking do 98 samples at once. that it. im sorry. fuck u #and i would probably have come to this conclusion earlier if i had thr time to test but doing it all rught now with no fucking room for #grace makes it very fucking clear. so idk. im not fucking using the chambers. and im not looking forward to explaining this to my boss #bc shes so excited abt this project that i have been dreading since its conception. i started with the 3 chambers and it was somehow #even more awful than i would have imagined. fuck that. 2 or 3 fucking weeks of this #and im not even getting paid for all the extra work i do bc i don't get overtime. im not even technically allowed to work weekends or over #40hrs a week. im just doinf this bc im already so miserable why thr fuck not. #hhhhh im being such a brat abt this for real. ugh but i dont wanna meet with my boss #bc this feels like the time where i have to explain that like. listen. u know that thing im really good at and have spent fucking hour and #hours and hours and hours of time doing? well its catastrophically destructive to my brain and thats whats landed us here #where im so fucking fed up that i wanna quit. clean cut and never work with this stuff ever again #and if i have to use the 3 chambers i might die. i might just evaporate away into a million pieces bc i dont wanna deal with this #but i dont wanna explain that bc then shell feel bad and this isnt her fault. i have an issue thats out of my control and im letting it #devour me whole so like 🤷‍♂️ its my fault bleh #whatever. itll be fine. ive got a coherent argument as to why this is too much. and i kno im fucking right so there it is #i feel like that helps me make decisions: heres what has to happen. heres whats preventing that from happening #and there it is. it either u can fix it or u cant. thats it. u deal with the things in ur control #lol at least im not alone to stew in my anger. im working with 2 other ppl today. so i mean i say that im fucking furious bc im visual fine #lol bc im a patient and level headed person irl im just really whiney online bc i have no outlet. so itll b fine. decision made now we just #deal with it. ugh but how tf am i gonna distract myself from how miserable this is all day? thats the real question #brain gets Interrupted ever 5 min bleh agony #unrelated

Ok i’m scheduling some art I’ve done in the past while I work on new things and I remembered that Queen Bee (from h/lluva b/ss) redesign I did a year ago when a lot of ppl were doing it and it’s probably time to post it before it gets too old…

man, I am NOT excited for all the harassment I’m gonna endure from the unhinged HB fans, but hopefully I’m too small of an artist to get noticed so maybe i’ll be fine

#rambling #my posts #helluva boss critical #tagging it as such so ya won’t be able to complain that I „didn’t properly tag the hate” or sth #I had also a wip of ALMOST FINISHED 2nd redesign where I was basically just making my own take on the Beelzebub #that I can use outside of H//B f/nart (like I can easily put it in my game project) #but for some reason I never sat down to properly finish it bc the lineart was killing me #bc you see I used to do this very annoying thing where instead of drawing lineart on a seperate layer #I was just erasing and „sculpting” the messy sketch layer until it looked good #Which maybe would look good in a different brush but nah it was the default smooth brush #I thought this method would be faster bc „well at least i’m not drawing the lines from scratch” #but when you have messy sketches the cleaning up process gets very tedious very fast #so at some point I was just fed up and had a break that turned too long and by that point my artstyle #changed too much and I didn’t want to touch my old work; bc I like to preserve my progress #(which means no messing with works and wips that are older than a month) #anyway i’m getting off topic #so uh; i guess if you like redesigns you’re in for a treat #if not then well i hope we can resolve this diplomatically #and to anyone asking if i’m actually a fan of the show - no i’m not; it was a guilty pleasure to a certain point until it was unbearable #I really hate both h///b and h/////h so don’t ask me any opinions on them bc i’m gonna be very mean 😭😭😭 #all i’m gonna say is my opinions aren’t groundbreaking or anything; i can’t really say what hasn’t already been said

is there a way to explain to my "no excuse for laziness" family how executive dysfunction works? how autism and ADHD works? how they're not quirks or funny but often quite painful and distressing? (genuine questions)

i'm going to start crying if i have to talk with mom about my future one more time

(more of the rant in the tags. sorry)

#and yeah for the record we do have autistic/ADHD people #my mom is the kind of person who watched some tiktoks and went 'i think i have ADHD lmao' #and my aunt is the kind of person who thinks there's no such thing as an inability and that 'we're all a little autistic' #🙄 give me a break #i told my mom that i refuse to work fast food or retail ever again #(my exception is a quiet place like a small bookstore. not indigo) #and she worked fast food for over a decade and is like 'well i'd go back if i had to' #that's nice mom but i'm not you by a LONG SHOT #like. sorry but i was in so much mental and physical pain working customer/food service #and you think that you know when you actually don't know and don't even want to try and understand #honestly even if things DONT go according to plan as of yesterday i'm still gonna set a goal for myself #to get out of the house by next summer #because honestly fuck this shit i'm so mad and i grow more and more mad with each passing day #like yeah you respect my sensory difficulties but do you respect me when i can't do much more than lie on the couch on my phone? #you respect the fact that i'm autistic and have ADHD but do you understand what that means for me as the person with those disorders? #and not what people online who know AuDHDers say? #do you understand that there are in fact things i am unable to do and things that i used to be able to do but no longer can? #i'm so fed up and frustrated. legit started looking at apartments and jobs yesterday #(context: aunt is going to try and move to the US to be closer to her partner next year and mom and i can't stay in the house ourselves) #(so mom asked what my plans are and i told her it really depended on the next few months) #(but honestly i don't want to get that job. i want to finish my associate's and leave. i'm done.) #(and i want to move out of this house filled with people who respect me but refuse to try and understand it from my perspective) #vent #actually autistic #actually adhd

[homunculus-argument]

Apparently there's an evolutionary theory that the reason why Africa has so much wild big-ass megafauna while the big-ass megafauna on all the other continents went extinct is because they evolved right beside humans, and knew us well enough to not get hunted into extinction.

So while everything from giant koalas to giant sloths barely had the time to think "what the fuck is that" before getting pierced by a spear and getting their bone marrow gently fed to babies and the toothless elderly, Africa had elephants who had all the time in the world to learn to tell apart human languages and teach the next generations of their herd which human sounds mean that this tribe won't hurt you, but humans who make this kind of sounds are a danger. And hippos learned to conclude "I think I'll fuck up this two-legged weird shit on sight."
