Ok so I know everyone has already said that Isha is the perfect combo of Powder, Milo and Claggor (face, hair, goggles) but what I haven't seen anyone else mention is the fact that on top of all this, when Vi sees her, she is staring up at an enforcer with the same burning hatred Vi herself used to possess. In that moment Vi is seeing not just her old family, but her old self.

This is a PSA for (usually) American authors writing British characters, from a Brit.

The standard British tea is English Breakfast Tea, sold by brands like Yorkshire Tea, and PG tips, or Barry’s if you’re Irish. It is NOT Earl Grey. In fact, it’s quite unusual for someone to actually drink Earl Grey. The two teas are not interchangeable.

If someone offers you a cup of tea, they mean English breakfast - if they have something other than English breakfast, they will specify. Most British households will keep teabags of English breakfast tea and instant coffee as standard (even if they personally don’t like it, it’s usually polite to keep it to offer to guests).

Having worked in a coffee shop, in my experience, it is only middle class people (and usually white women) who order Earl Grey teas, whereas English breakfast is far more universal. A ‘builder’s tea’ - aka a strong cup of English breakfast with very little milk - is commonly associated with working class men, but can equally be enjoyed by everyone (like me). If someone orders a black tea, this will usually mean an English breakfast tea without milk, as opposed to the type of tea. Making a weak cup of tea which has not been allowed to brew for long enough or which has too much milk will result in being mocked, and offering a weak tea to guests is very rude.

Along a similar vein, we do not have cream/creamer in our coffees here. For both tea and coffee, the usual options are milk, sugar, or sweeteners. I live in London and yet I’ve never even seen coffee creamer in the fridge of Tesco.

Of course, I am sure that there are people who prefer Earl Grey and keep it stocked in their homes. Equally, I’m sure there’s someone who went to America and now orders coffee creamer from Amazon or something, but that is the 0.01% of the population. Not the majority.

Yes, this is a weird reader pet peeve of mine because it really takes away from the realism of the story. So small and yet so telling😂

Thank you for reading my rant! If you have any more questions, please ask. Now go forth and write accurate Brits!

I've seen a few people over my time on here say that Steve accepting Robin being a lesbian is out of character and I really don't think it is. In the 80s, especially a small town like Hawkins there would probably not be any out lgbt people hanging around. Definitely not at a high school so Steve's entire perspective is from media, what his friends and family think and just the general opinion of the time that gay = bad/wrong.

But here's the thing, Robin is Steve's best and only friend his age. She's someone he thinks he has romantic feelings for but really he just isn't used to female attention that doesn't imply romance. She's someone he has been hanging around with for weeks almost every day and knows pretty well. So, when she finally comes out to Steve and he says Oh...

It's because his entire perspective of lgbt or at least gays and lesbians has been completely shifted. Everything he's ever been told about being gay just isn't what he's experienced with Robin. When he's sitting their thinking, he's thinking of how being gay can't be wrong because Robin is awesome and the best friend he's ever had.

He cares a hell of a lot about Robin and she's pulled him through four days of world ending shit so him accepting her right there and then isn't out of character. Steve has seen multidimensional monsters, been interrogated and drugged by Russians and his only friend is sitting right there telling him that she actually likes girls.

His reaction to joke around and make Robin feel comfortable and at ease is the most in character thing Steve could do. You can tell Joe and Maya created that scene because it works so god damn well.

Some people need a personal experience to understand another group of people, or an attachment to someone from a group they may not understand so that they can, and that is 100% okay. Steve just needed someone to metaphorically slap him across the face and change his view of gay people.
