as an accountant it's always exciting when a reconciliation finds somewhere that the bank fucked up, mostly because it's not my job to call the bank and tell them they fucked up

Posting my Ultimate Byler Evidence/Analysis List here directly because it probably makes it more convenient and I should have done this a while ago. XD

There is so much proof for Byler being endgame in S5 of Stranger Things. They are so cute together, and so much in the show has been building up to their relationship. I just wanted to share some of my favourite Byler analyses, because they are so cool, detailed, and in-depth. I love reading about all the hints, symbolism, and subtext for Byler, it's amazing how much thought must have been put into all these things. Why go through all the effort of adding these details if they aren't actually going anywhere with them? Mike is so queercoded, and they are truly in love with each other.

🫥 Just gonna leave some good Byler analyses here 🤐

Most of the links go to written Tumblr posts, and a couple of them are Reddit posts. So it's a lot of reading. If you prefer watching videos over reading, I highlighted my Byler YouTube playlist in green so it's easy to find.

And apologies for any of the links that aren't working, I know some of the posts have been deleted now sadly, but there's no way I'm re-numbering all these so I'm just leaving them in. My fellow Bylers, please stop deleting your amazing posts. ;-;

[cultofcipher]

Genuinely confused towards people taking the dating/love parts of The Book of Bill 100% seriously as if Bill's telling the truth there (he's not) and tagging him as aroace???

Several times throughout the book we see his exes names scratched out, he denies dating a howling void only for it later to be confirmed that yes, he totally was. Bloody Mary is his ex. This guy HAS dated people seriously in the past. I say seriously because from the tone he uses towards Bloody Mary ghosting him (pun intended) and how he calls love "pointless" that he's been the one getting dumped and is now VERY BITTER ABOUT IT (cause he's the epitome of pettiness).

Bill is at the very least not aromantic. And he doesn't really comment towards being asexual or having an aversion to that either.

BUT YOU KNOW WHO HAS BEEN LITERALLY IMPLIED TO BE AROACE IN THE BOOK????

FORD!!!!!!!! FORD IS RIGHT THERE AND YET PEOPLE ARE SOMEHOW SKIPPING OVER HIM TO INCORRECTLY LABEL BILL AS THE ONE WHO'S AROACE

I honestly can't wrap my head around it. Like guys is it a favoritism thing towards Bill or what cause if you want ace representation then I'm sorry but the odds aren't in the triangle's favor meanwhile Ford is giving the most ace coding out of probably every character in Gravity Falls.

crazy how the sanshee plush is one of the few actual direct confirmations on what a non-act 2 Natsuki’s home life is like because of how cagey she is on literally everything. Like this isn’t anything surprising or something you wouldn’t be able to extrapolate from the games but unlike everything else we know about her the implications are right there on the tin.

They literally did the character bio trope where where all the likes are normal but the dislikes are about their very specific trauma it’s just so funny they did that on the plushie card

[shakingparadigm]

The kiss is very controversial but if there's one thing about it that I'm most grateful for, it's that I can send that shit over and over again to my friend who insisted that Ivan and Till had a brotherly relationship

[charlotteoccasionally]

reasons why kyman is canon (TRIGGER WARNING: KY//MAN, JOKING!!)

1. kyle continuously choosing to get in arguments with cartman instead of just ignoring him (which they have proof works) bc he gets his kicks outta being righteous

2. cartman saving kyle at the end of smug alert despite saying he hates him

3. kyle coming to help cartman at the end of jewpacabra

4. “my little monster” in its a jersey thing

5. cartman showing no denial/response when ppl think he and kyle are a couple in tonsil trouble

6. cartman making everyone think kyman is canon in cartman finds love (when he coulda EASILY found a different way to stop kyle and nicole from getting together)

7. cartman’s canon yaoi obsession (tfbw character relations graph)

8. kyle saving cartman in manbearbig

9. imaginationland trilogy.

10. kyle crying after finding out cartman was innocent after breaking his electronics

11. kyle’s response during his fight with cartman after getting with heidi (“cartman, YOU weren’t happy” instead of just saying how badly he treated her)

12. kyman hand holding in multiple episodes

13. cartman saying he loves kyle and tryna kiss him(?) in le petite tourette

14. kyle’s jealousy of heiman (ppl say it’s kyle jealous of cartman for dating heidi but we never saw any evidence that kyle liked her until AFTER they started dating)

15. the way kyle always chooses cartman as his stand in BFF when stan is outta the picture instead of anyone else/their dynamicness as a duo (crack baby athletic association, you’re getting old, ass burgers, prehistoric ice man, etc.)

16. cartman and kyle’s softening relationship as the seasons go on (compare “passion of the jew” kyman to an episode like “help my teenager hates me”)

17. the deleted “cartman + kyle” writing on the wall of the boy’s bathroom in stick of truth

18. kyman is just an inherently funny ship that if it actually becomes canon would kinda sum up the attitude of the show (m&t just don’t gaf)

This is the question we all need answered..

Does Jonny bite?

Do you want the canonical answer or the answer we all know in our hearts to be true? While there are instances in canon of other things (octokittens) biting Jonny, there is no evidence of his biting someone (at least, not while they're still alive-- he does eat people). In fact, the crew claims that they, collectively, don't bite, even if "other forms of assault are fair game." Of course, they may be lying, as they do about most things.

However, I think we all know instinctively that that man is a biter.

Wei Wuxian is 35ish. Fight me

And its not like wwx has to be mentally younger/ less mature than his peers for his situation to still be incredibly tragic. It's just less a "man out of time" brand of tragedy and more the kind of tragedy that comes from being away from your hometown for awhile (in wwx's case, away because he was in metaphysical jail) and then you come back and everything's changed and your favorite store closed and your childhood best friend has a baby you had no idea about

[stoshasaurus]

i see a lot of people write Osiris as having tattoos, but does he actually have tattoos, or is that just a universally accepted headcanon?

[not-the-coffee-machine4]

Me: *tries to see what the Queen fans on TikTok have to say*

*Jim hate*

*”facts” that may or not be actually true*

*”Freddie Mercury was bisexual-“*

*Using Barbara Valentin as evidence*

*thinking things that happened in the movie actually happened irl*

*general misinformation about everyone and everything*

Me: aaaaand back to Tumblr I go

The Truth About Hosegate and Lover's Lake

(An analysis by scrunchietown)

I found this like a year or two ago on here, but when I was making my Ultimate Byler Evidence/Analysis List, I was unable to find it again and realized it had been deleted. Luckily I took screenshots and had reposted them on Reddit so I could link to it in my list because I think it's really good. Anyway, now that I've reposted my evidence list on Tumblr, I figured I should post this too. I'm not sure why the original post was removed, so I apologize to scrunchietown if they removed it intentionally for some reason, but I think it's a really important thing to talk about so I want to share it here.

So anyway, here it is. :P

Because of the 10 image max, I will have to post this in multiple parts.

Here's Part 2.

[taashed]

okay i peeked at the achievement list for taash spoilers! Taash's endgame pronouns are revealed in the quest achievement, but i'm hiding my thoughts under the cut for extra protection from spoilers

TAASH THEY/THEM CONFIRMED!?

I also think that my earlier prediction was right, that Taash's primary purpose in the story will be to explore their qunari heritage and what the fire breathing thing means for them and their relationship with what it means to be qunari. I don't anticipate that their entire quest will just be a gender journey, but that gender will be supplementary to their larger "finding themself" arc. it's also possible that taash will identify as nonbinary from the start (though i think that's less likely given the pre-release material we've seen), or use she/they

as a note of caution: i think it's important to remember that not everyone will see this spoiler and that taash will likely use she/her pronouns during the early game, so please don't assume ill-intent or "well actually" people who are avoiding spoilers and operating on what was revealed in the podcast and bioware's tweets. also, nonbinary people can be lesbians so if you see people (read: me) saying things like "lesbian sex" or having lesbian headcanons for taash and you shit on them for that you can get fucked. nonbinary people can also use terms like wife and girlfriend so if you shit on people for that until/unless there's confirmation that taash doesn't like it you can double get fucked + learn queer history. thank you hugs and kisses

AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH IT'S CONNECTED I FUCKING KNEW IT THE DOODLER IS PART OF THE PANTHEON LET'S GOOOOOOO
