Singing and Flailing

"This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes."

people who have found a way to have fun in the corn maze but who I'm a little worried about:

person who we are going to put in the corn:

Do you remember what I said about Click’s class? About me being jealous and, like, obsessed? Yeah. It isn’t because I had a crush on you. It’s because she wouldn’t stop staring at you. Mrs. Click? Tammy Thompson. I wanted her to look at me. But… she couldn’t pull her eyes away from you and your stupid hair. And I didn’t understand, because you would get bagel crumbs all over the floor. And you asked dumb questions. And you were a douchebag. And… and you didn’t even like her. And I would go home… and just scream into my pillow.

What made them special was never that they were perfect in season 1. They weren’t. They were messy, immature, and both made mistakes. Their breakup made sense. That’s exactly why their story felt real.

But the thing is: even after everything, the feelings never truly disappeared.

Season 2 separated them. Season 3 barely gave them scenes together, yet even in those small moments, you could still feel that Steve would do absolutely anything for Nancy — he literally risked his life to save hers. And then season 4 happened — the season that reminded everyone just how much chemistry they still had. Steve admitting that he never stopped loving her changed everything for me.

I know Nancy and Jonathan cared about each other, but their relationship always felt more like a safe place built around shared trauma than a lasting love story. It made sense for that point in their lives, but deep down, Steve and Nancy always felt unfinished.

And honestly I don’t think Nancy ever truly stopped loving Steve either. I think she buried those feelings after Barb’s death because loving Steve became tied to guilt and pain. But season 4 made it so obvious that something between them was still there after all those years.

That’s why it hurts so much that season 5 never followed through on the buildup. The Duffer Brothers created something incredibly powerful between them again, only to abandon it completely. Steve and Nancy could have had such a beautiful full-circle story, two people who grew up, changed, made mistakes, and still found their way back to each other.

And no, Nancy ending up with Steve would not have made her “less independent” in my opinion. Choosing love does not erase a strong woman’s individuality. If anything, it would have been Nancy finally accepting what her heart had been trying to tell her all along.

They want total control over you. Not just trans people. Not just queer people. You. Everyone.

Trans people are just a scapegoat. They want total control over everyone's self expression. They want the right to mold you into their perfect little cog in their dehumanizing machine.
