The Way Stranger Things Just Ripped Argyle Away From Us Is So Cruel. It's Not A Complete Friend Group

It's been a pleasure clowning with you guys the past 4 weeks. I have one more theory to post and then I'm done. It's nice to know that even if we don't see Billy again, there's a tag full of people to commiserate with. And that Billy will live on in mulleted splendor in fanfic and fanart. No matter what the antis or the Duffers say, we know the truth about Billy and about all of the folks like Billy who are doing their best to recover from childhoods full of abuse, rejection, and abandonment.

Keep your heads up, guys. I hope the Friday release gives you everything you're hoping for. But if it doesn't, the tag is here for you.

I know I’m about to sound like a petty bitch here but I kind of can’t wait for someone’s fav to be killed off. I’ve had to listen to the majority of the ST fandom saying awful things about my favorite character saying he deserved to die in such a violent horrific way. Saying the abuse he endured didn’t matter at all. So like sucks to be you now. 🤷‍♀️

Is it weird that I haven’t really been a fan of Stranger Things proper in years? Like, I consider myself:

1. Abused Rat Bastard Public Defender

2. Hapless Romantic for the Chaos and Complexity of Harringrove, Mungrove, Argilly, and Other Trash Rat Pairings

3. Fascinated Theorist of the Woefully Under-Explored Hargrove-Mayfield Family

…

9999999. Actual Fan of the Show

I feel like an old-timey prospector trying to divine gold nuggets from dirt. Because there are some truly interesting, worthwhile elements scattered around the place that I’ve seen other writers spin into incredible stories.

But overall… whatever the show has ultimately become doesn’t really do it for me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I made a uquiz for Billy bitches only!

Which Billy are you???

This is my first uquiz so don't expect anything good

being showcased to relatives and family friends as a perfect child but everything that is being said about you is false and you know that either the person describing you is lying or has fabricated a fake image of you but no matter which you are strongly aware that you have failed to be the person your family desires you to be

basically billy nation depending on what happens on friday

Time for something that might be a hot take to some people.

Max attacking Billy with the baseball bat is not the badass move we’re meant to see it as in the narrative. Rather, it shows that she is caught in the same cycle of abuse as Billy. Billy overreacted, but he’s under threat of violence if he doesn’t bring Max home, and he finds her in an undeniably shady situation. He’s already down after Max injects him with the tranquilizer, but Max repeats the same tactics that we saw Neil use on Billy.

“Isn’t that right? ISN’T THAT RIGHT?” “Yes, sir.” “I’m sorry, I couldn’t hear you.” “Yes. Sir.”

“SAY YOU UNDERSTAND! Say it. SAY IT!!” “I understand.” “What?” “I understand.”

Warning: flashing lights/bright colors/Sonic Prime spoilers
