Hi

This is Money Snake. She only appears every 312 years. 

This is why I'll never forgive Neil Druckmann.

Ever.

Hundreds of variations of this exact sentiment are floating around online and it will only get worse. I knew this was coming and it still feels like being punched in the stomach.

It hurts.

Because I'm real. Dozens and dozens of powerful women at my gym are real. When I travel, I'm fortunate to explore different gyms around the world. The strong ass women inside those walls are real.

We're lacking representation in media and this is one pill I just can't swallow without it cutting my throat to shreds.

I'm body shamed constantly.

One of the most insidious forms of body shaming I’ve ever seen, though? Watching Abby's body, a rare representation in media, be erased entirely because it made people uncomfortable. After her creators went to bat for her to the point it split the fanbase.

And then to be told none of it mattered.

I never say this. But I'm saying it now.

Fuck any person, any damn person, who contributes to making women who take up space, feel like they don't belong in this world unless they make themselves smaller.

Do fucking better.

Eddie and Chrissy according to Joe Quinn, Grace Van Dien and the Duffer Brothers (sources below)

[Were Eddie and Chrissy on the outskirts of falling in love?]  “Yeah, that’s the way I saw it.” - Joseph Quinn (x)

“It would be lovely if there was a world in which [they could] be a pretty uncouth couple at Hawkins High that I think might shake things up a little bit.” - Joseph Quinn (x)

“We always have those moments [of ‘What have we done?’].  We shot the quote-unquote drug-deal scene in the woods pretty late, actually, into shooting. We had already killed Chrissy when we shot that. The scene came alive in a beautiful way. So much of that was Joe and Grace.” - Duffer Brothers (x)

“She had to feel safe enough with him to go back to his trailer. And he’s a pretty intimidating guy when you first meet him, so I think it made sense for there to be some romantic intrigue there. And to also spark Mason’s character Jason’s suspicion. It felt like the right way to go there, I think.” - Joseph Quinn (x)

#Eddissy - Grace Van Dien (x)

“I think he’s completely haunted by his inability to do anything to save Chrissy and how powerless he was at that moment.” - Joseph Quinn (x)

“I think kind of…yes, I think he did [have a crush on Chrissy]. I think, playing with archetypes, especially in American high school, I don’t think you’d ever put those two together. But they get to know each other more in episode one and there’s kind of potential there, and then something horrible happens. I think the concert, for him, was more about avenging her as a person rather than anything romantic but I think there could have been the potential for a liaison of some kind.” - Joseph Quinn (x)

“I really loved the scene that I got to do with Grace Van Dien in the woods in episode one.” - Joseph Quinn (x)
