Seeing people hate on Argyle as I gather every scrap of positive Argyle fan content into my arms and cry over them

It's honestly so funny tho bc like other than El, Argyle was undoubtedly THE most useful member of the Cali Team in season 4.

Who saved the group from being shot at and helped them successfully escape in his pizza van?

Argyle

Who pointed out that the secret message pen was "broken"?

Argyle

Who found the track marks in the desert that they were otherwise lost in?

Argyle

Who not only thought up the pizza freezer bath solution but was able to actually get it for them?

Stranger Things spoilers ahead but I need to talk about Jonathan Byers.

Jonathan, who took it upon himself to organize his baby brother’s funeral because his mother wasn’t doing it.

Jonathan, who dropped everything to *save* Will when he was presented with evidence that he wasn’t dead.

Jonathan, who could not physically bear to watch Will in pain even if it was necessary to free him from the mindflayer, and had to turn away so he didn’t have to see him suffer.

Jonathan, who never treated Will like he was annoying like Mike and Nancy or Lucas and Erica.

Jonathan, who truly *saw* how Will was acting around Mike and knew what it meant.

Jonathan, who admitted he had been distant and chose to be the one to reach across the distance and tell Will he would always love him no matter what.

Jonathan, who gave Will acceptance and reassurance without asking anything of him.

Jonathan, who realized in 1986 that his baby brother was queer and made sure he knew he was explicitly supported without outing him before he was ready.

Just. Jonathan Byers y’all.

Hey duffle bags, way to shat all over Dacre’s hard work on trying to humanize Billy whilst he couldn’t be on set to defend him.

It’s funny how some people go around bullying/ harassing Billy fans accusing them of “simping after the hot white bad boy” then proceed to turn a blind eye to all the 001/Henry stans in the fandom.

The hypocrisy is amazing.

Only good thing to come out of Vol 2 was my beautiful man Argyle making it out of this shitshow alive and unharmed.

Poor joseph quinn thirsting over joe keery the same way joe is/was thirsting over dacre montgomery.

some people just don’t like traumatised/abused characters who aren’t soft and sweet and mistake free

the character in question is, in their mind, only valid/worthy of redemption and happiness if they react to trauma in an way that’s deemed ‘appropriate’
