isn't strange that will knew how to use this type of gun but jonathan didn't? we know their father taught them. or jonathan was hesitating to answer because he has a trauma from when lonnie forced him to kill a bunny? i have another theory, it's probably not true because their father is an asshole and i doubt he cared that much. but we also know that lonnie suspected that will is gay and called him slurs, so maybe he only taught will so he can protect himself in case of a hate crime? i don't really believe in this, but like it's a possibility. either way it's sad.
There are Russian citizens who understand that Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is wrong, and they are showing up & showing out.

For all the tankies and misguided “leftists” who somehow think that backing Putin is the way to show how “pure” their “communism” is—THIS is how you do it. THIS is how you rise up. These Russian protesters aren’t talking shit, while hiding behind a keyboard, in the safety of a country that’s safely not being invaded. These Russian citizens are openly protesting Putin’s war and their own government. They are putting it all on the line and literally risking everything to protest Putin’s imperialism. They are showing solidarity with the people of Ukraine.
Bravo. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 Bravo. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
every day i wake up and when will was attacked by a monster he got a gun to shoot it, and when mike dustin and lucas were facing a monster they said hm you know what we should do we just get a slingshot and yeet some tiny rocks at it. this is a good plan. this will work.
Big hug: season two edit
Just wanted to point out that the Byers family can now afford the expensive syrup
canon btw. if you even care
THE WONDER TWINS ARE IN THE SAME HOUSE
ugh my little heart
It always got me how, right from the beginning, Will is depicted as doing exactly the right thing. The thing that you would usually be yelling at the screen for the characters to do when they're being stupid:
He's honest, he abandons his bike and runs, he locks the door and puts the chain on, he immediately yells for his mom and Jonathan, he phones 911, and when all else fails, at the age of fucking twelve, he grabs a gun to defend himself. And despite all that, he never stood a chance. We're supposed to root for him. It makes it that much more satisfying when he's saved in the end.
Similarly, in s4 Will is shown to do everything right to help his sister and his best friend. He supports El at school, he argues with her about being honest with her boyfriend, he fights to see her when she gets arrested, spends an entire season looking for her while acting as their relationship counsellor, and when all else fails, he gives his love confession that he'd been holding in for years as hers, because he cares more about seeing them happy than himself. Will resigns himself to suffering in silence for the sake of the people he loves, he thinks he never stood a chance because he feels like he's alone, he feels like a mistake and WE ARE MEANT TO ROOT FOR HIM.
All in all, I think this is just another beautiful way they've set up byler endgame. That mirrored catharsis of Will doing the right thing, only to go through so much undeserved pain, before he can finally live and get what he deserves, will be so very worth it and will make for a great main character arc :')
guys, what if will’s already BEEN vecna’d
the nightmares…
the visions…
it all seems awfully familiar, doesn’t it?
I had a screenshot on my laptop of this dialogue from a fic, don't remember which one tho.
