* insert gif of Will biking away from Mike's house and parting ways with Dustin right before he falls off his bike and then is quite possibly soon after attacked in s1 ... next to a gif of Eddie biking away from the pursuit of the demobats and Dustin not being able to save Eddie and grieving his death*

Do you wanna be normal? The thing is, nobody normal ever accomplished anything meaningful in this world.

Will Byers is probably autistic (psych analysis)

So I guess before I get started, I just have to mention that everyone should keep an open mind. Imagine all of the autistic rep you’ve ever seen- okay? Now, throw it out the window XD. Because almost all of it is inaccurate, and offensive. Okay, so I’ll be citing scientific articles as well as giving my own insight as an autistic person- who is studying to be in the medical field. Every autistic person has different experiences, but i’m just giving my input as an autistic person (who has average/above average intelligence- like Will) to paint a better understanding of ASD, and to explain why I head-cannon him as such.

Byler this, mileven that. you know what I really want from season five?

I want the Duffers to explain exactly HOW THE FUCK will disappeared.

Because it's been haunting me for years and it still doesn't make sense.

Murray sensing the gay drama unfolding near him is always so funny

Did somebody say that they saw Dustin wearing shoes from the 1990s in a leaked photo?

I'm not incredibly invested in believing we'll reach the 1990s within the Stranger Things timeline, however...

If they happen to reach September of 1995 even in an epilogue scene, I need Holly to be into Sailor Moon. Because I know she would be.

Our blonde, pigtailed Holly Wheeler would adore a reincarnated warrior princess from outer space (that in later seasons protects Earth from aliens and evil doctors that have been creating creepy monsters in labs.)

Once again I’ve become overly conscious over the fact that I’m really just a brain with tendrils controlling a meat mecha😔

I appreciate you so much @0aurelion-sol0 ! Your encouragement means a lot to me. I hope I won't make you wait 25 years. 🥲

I've finally started organizing all of my observations and theories about Stranger Things from over the years, and what I believe is truly going on behind the curtain (as Murray would say.)

It's going to be a while before I complete this theory masterpost, but I'd like to share an introductory post today which summarizes the overall structure of my masterpost and its contents so far.

...

I would like to lead with a list of claims that I believe I can very reasonably make about Stranger Things, and demonstrate to be true through canonical evidence and citing specific details and scenes in the show:

the show often focuses on the psychological and mental capacity of the human mind, and the human mind in general, both in casual ways ("mind-blowing!") and formal ways (ex. Mr. Clarke's lecture on Phineas Gage in season 2)

the show features consistent references to trauma and traumatic events, characters attempting to navigate living with their trauma, "shared trauma," as well as characters being seen by doctors who claim they will help characters work through and heal from their trauma

the concept of a greater collective consciousness is repeated throughout the series in different contexts

I suspect I'll add to this list of reasonable claims.

...

The following are topics that will each have their own dedicated section (or separate post, I haven't decided on the best approach yet.) I might reorder these based on how best they flow into one another as I go.

...

Topics:

themes of trauma and memories

Doctor Owens

Will and El

"Caught between two slides" - Will, El, and Mike

Kali and El

Hopper

Billy Hargrove

Will and Max parallels

Will and Eddie parallels

Henry Creel

The lab and Doctor Brenner

The Numbers

"Nancy Drew"

Robin and Steve

Lonnie

themes of "time travel" and the concept of exploring memories from the past

parallels between Murray and Mike (I get so much laughter on this one, but I'm serious)

Miscellaneous other relevant details (I'm sure somebody is going to say "but what about Terry Ives" and I can anticipate a number of other common critiques of my theories at this point since I've been talking about them for a while, so I'll try to get ahead of those common questions this time.)

Conclusion

*This list of topics will surely expand and shift as I go.
