it’s called stranger things because the writing choices just get stranger with each passing episode

Each passing episode or each passing second?

I hate to even talk about season 5 in this much detail because I honestly want to eject it from my memory, but did anyone notice that when Jonathan and Nancy were stuck in that room, calling for help, that Nancy called for Steve, yet Jonathan called for Dustin? Regardless of who you ship together, you have to admit that Jonathan was behaving irresponsibly. This moment has been used by us Stancies as evidence of their bond, but if you actually look at Jonathan's behaviour, you'll find yourself disliking him more and more. I'd go as far as to say I hate him. We saw what Will experienced (apparently the Duffers didn't because they gave us hardly any information in season 5 whatsoever) and as his brother, Jonathan was there. Don't make the mistake of thinking I mean this in an emotional or supportive context- there is an obvious bond between the two. I don't view this as as a result of anything Jonathan has done in the show. It is completely normal to be close with your siblings, especially when that same sibling was present throughout all of your major trauma. However, when it comes to Jonathan's actions, what he controls and decides on doing, they are consistently childish and immature. He left Will alone on Halloween despite knowing what he had gone through, all to attend a party that he wasn't necessarily comfortable in. He left his brother, a child, to chase a girl- a girl he barely had any contact with during said party apart from taking her home. Whether Jonathan was a minor or not, he is the older, more mature one in the relationship and should be a lot more caring. The scene in season 5 once again proves that he hasn't faced any significant character development. Rather than prioritise Nancy and their safety in general, he calls for the child in the situation. A literal child. He would rather keep his overinflated ego in tact than admit that he needs help. He would rather put a child at risk than look weak next to another man. I find it odd - and genuinely concerning- that no one relates this to the fact that he saw what his brother went through. What his friends went through. What CHILDREN were forced to face, and yet this is seemingly irrelevant to him? If you think that this man is at all a hero in any context, you need to seek serious help. I find that members of the ST fandom tend to settle for the bare minimum, particularly when it comes to this creature, and I can't stand it. Even if you aren't a stancy, his behaviour is disgusting for someone that is supposed to be a supportive figure. If you cannot separate your feelings about a ship to acknowledge that- once again, seek serious help. note: This isn't at all hate towards Charlie. He is amazing at what he does, and it's a shame he has been forced to portray someone so bland and unlikeable.

I'm tired of the talk about Nancy and Steve becoming like Karen & Ted when it's explicitly stated in the show that that would have been Nancy & Jonathan's fate...

Reblogging this old post from a while ago because I've been doing that recently and I also am still angry ✌️

god jonathan really will only go to nancy when he feels like it and not for innocent reasons as to make her happy. he will literally let her deal with her own misery until she comes to him and even then it’s a toss up if he actually will help her

And even with how little he even sees her anyway, when he does, he just can't STAND that she's in pink. He doesn't miss her or feel happy to see her, he just hates she's in pink! Manchild of the year award

Vincenzo's preferred role in life is to be Cha-young's accessory first and comedy support second, it is my favorite thing

The Duffers said: No

Steve such a grace-filled character played by such a grace-filled actor. He took everything and made it work. But he did in fact deserve better. They didn’t resolve the love confession in season 4. They didn’t give him any real closure.
