Marty McFly truly is THE character of all time.

He's a short king. He's a time traveler. He's an expert skateboarder. He is one of the clumsiest people you've ever met. He's bisexual. He has exactly two friends. He has altered the course of history on more than one occasion. He is traumatized beyond belief. He is genuinely a kind person. He's been shot at by Libyan terrorists. He plays the guitar. His impulse control is nonexistent. He loves his girlfriend more than anyone or anything else in his life. He's a loser. He has so much rizz that it makes any actor who plays him 50% hotter. He's named after himself. His watch is broken. His best friend is a disgraced nuclear physicist who is at least four times his age. He exists in a perpetual state of confusion. He went back in time and fucked around just enough to fix and improve the lives of his entire family. His thoughts run at a mile a minute. He does not have a single thought behind those eyes. He saved himself from being erased from existence by playing the guitar. He accidentally pulled his own mom and dad. He is literally played by Michael J. Fox.

Ngl Robert Zemeckis really cooked with this one.

Dustin is just upset that he's had to watch the Never Ending Story 13 times in a row.

((Jake and Mila chirp and trill like bugs, but Steve can't make the same noise. Instead he hums along with them, mimicking their songs and calls, which delights both of his kids.))

I love Midsomer Murders. every episode contains a forbidden love, gruesome murders, silly moments between Barnaby's wife and the DC, and at least one local pub

if you ever want to talk about your thoughts on joyce .. Peeks over the corner of your blog. i love talking and hearing ppls thoughts on joyce sooo much even if they're different from my own!! and your analysis and stuff is always so well thought out

i hope u dont mind if i answer this publicly to take advantage of th request nd get my ideas out ther (also tyvm im happy u like my insane takes on these idiots, iv ben thinking abt them for almost 10 years)

i said a lot here so gnna 'read more' it

iv ben building trans charlie n my head fr, like i said, nearly 10 years. i used to view him as cis bcuz i always try to take as much frm th source material as i can wen i craft my HCs nd i had v personal (stupid) hangups insofar as him explicitly referring to his junk multiple times nd bottom surgery simply not being on my radar as a naive littl trans idiot deep in th sauce tht transmen oftn fall into w phallo being viewed so so poorly

evn still i leaned towards transmasc charlie nd always lovd moments tht let me imagine, for a moment, it being true, like his discomfort w taking off his shirt [hundred dollar baby, charlie kelly: king of the rats, the gang exploits the mortgage crisis, young charlie and mac deleted scenes, etc etc etc], or bonnie yelling abt ppl stealing her "charlie-girl" [the waitress is getting married] which i lovd to see as her accidentally misgendering him while drunk off her ass.

having grown out of my phallo issues (nd if ur reading this and u still view phallo super poorly, please do some research and grow too), ive in recent years fully subscribed to transmasc/nb charlie, and view his timeline something like this:

baby -> elementary: charlie refers to himself as a boy, doesnt "come out," simply has no idea he's afab. bonnie lets him dress however he wants and refers to him as asked. when charlie gets confused about his genitals, bonnie says his dick will grow in later lol, makes charlie wear a dress in public restrooms and tells him its just a game

middle: puberty hits and charlie gets confused and scared. bonnie puts him on blockers w.o explaining them ("my mom used to vaccinate me like every month" [the gang gets quarantined]) charlie goes on content and oblivious. STP acquired because hes "a late bloomer" and his dicks still not growing in?? weird. confides this in mac once, but he doesn't understand.

high: charlie finally registers that he's trans after forgetting theres a health class 1 day and not being able to skip it. throws him for a loop a bit but he becomes actively invested in his goals. he gets to start T and wants to have surgeries. "what guy hasnt done some extensive research on his own genitalia?" [mac is a serial killer]

college (aged): able to surgically transition (ty medicare) and continues on with life as we kno him now

joyce, imo, fits neatly into these views.

as a transmasc nb who came out young nd prefers to be seen as just A Guy by strangers, i grew up v vehemently against anything girly that might get me misgendered, but th more i began to 'pass,' th more @ home n my body i felt, th more and more comfortable i am w femininity, th more i wdnt mind putting on a dress, as long as th general public wd see me as "a man in women's clothes." n my mind, i prescribe something not exactly th same but v similar to charlie.

i see charlie "i dont really identify" kelly as afab and nb. i see joyce as a "character" he originally created to distance himself from the dysphoria of putting on a dress as a young trans boy, but that became part of him as the hard lines he drew in the sand as a child became blurry with age and self acceptance. charlie's comfort with himself allows joyce to evolve into a more solid persona, one he enjoys embodying and allowing to become a permanent facet of who he is. he's ok with being referred to as either. they're both him.

so maybe joyce comes out a bit more outside of the bathroom now.

10yo me thought The Scarlet Spider was the coolest a spider person could possibly ever get! I’ve been proven wrong many a time since (most of which in this film) but it was still so cool to see him in Across the Spider-Verse! 😁🕷️🕸���

joyceben joyceben joyceben....

say what you will about ben cafferty him engaging (however reluctantly) in his wife's weird doll hyperfixation is the highest form of love

her asking him which one is his favorite is so fucking autism i am never not asking everyone which of my characters they know nothing about is their favorite because people engaging in my hyperfix is my love language and its joyce's too

In 1942, a man had suddenly found himself aboard a ship on the Atlantic during World War II. He could only remember his name and where he was born. He did not remember anything else including how he got on the ship, but he was certain of one thing… that the ship was going to be hunted down and sunk by a U- Boat. He was in his own personal hell courtesy of… The Twilight Zone ("Judgment Night", The Twilight Zone, TV)
