Are true riverdale fans of the opinion it is a very good and nearly flawless show or does being a true riverdale fan mean being able to mock writing choices

it's long-running serial television plotted a season/half at a time so definitely not even "nearly" flawless.

BUT. i'm not doing combat with the writing team. i'm not actively reading against the text the way i have to in order to enjoy something like supernatural or the 90s robin comics or the fucking sopranos, which are patriarchal christiancore copworld rapeworld white supremacist horrorshows that hate their minority audiences, with like 2 good creatives involved and martyring themselves to fight the good fight on sparse rare installments if you try to approach them sincerely.

riverdale writing staff are like a favorite smart problematic tumblr mutual to me. I don't always like what's on their blog or who they're referencing. but we're in the same community and i'm interested and inspired and i trust their agenda overall, even when i see shit i wouldn't have fucking posted. but bc i'm not being condescended to or actively spited i'm not gonna condescend to or spite them, you know?

i expect rvd to age like twin peaks (another very uneven, highly referential serial juggling a couple of intensely cool metanarratives on top of its core story). and twin peaks fandom mocks twin peaks all the time. twin peaks includes some CLUNKY shit. it's kitsch. it's camp. it has a second season that is largely ASS. james is there. and on top of that it also includes some genuinely offputting-to-me stuff that just bothers me to sit through, even though i feel like i understand and respect what they're going for with it. i just don't want to watch someone sweep the fucking bar for minutes and minutes as entertainment. OK!!?

...so yeah. mock riverdale but in the right spirit. is that an answer? do i sound like i'm chugging the flavoraid koolaid fresh-aid? probably.

I feel like Kryptos is an office nerd but not in a cowardly, dorky kind of way. In the 'sure he knows how to do his job well, but he would also be the winner of his dimension's equivalent of the Belko Experiment' way. Does this make any sense?

This took me four hours and cost me a finger blister. Enjoy.

Well, I woke up very emotional this morning.

Thank you to those who shared that post, genuinely, it means a lot to me. And an extra thank you to those that donated, I'm honestly flabbergasted. While giving just to do it is definitely appreciated, please message me and let me know if you would like anything in return. I want to thank you for your generosity.

Otherwise, yeah. Just hoping you all are having a good day today.

Bc my phone wasn't working i couldn't listen to music on the drive to work. I ended up just LOUDLY yapping to myself about how god damned batshit legosi's family is for the full ride

not shipping The Main Fandom Ship for a character is always. something

[missjamiekaye]

you ever just read a fic of a character you relate to and it really gets into their head or another character is describing them and it's like A LITTLE TOO ON POINT AND YOU'RE LIKE NOPE NOPE NOPE YES YES BUT NO

I have truly been spoiled by the ease of accessibility of scans for manga and u.s. comics because when I try to look for scans for let's say a belgian comic it is not as convenient to find the pages from over the years all neatly arranged on a dedicated site

ray is the type of guy to dote on me to the moon and back when I get sick - to the point where he risks getting himself sick as well because he'll insist on staying with me and taking care of me and that almost always ends up with him snuggled up to me and kissing me all over lol

[something-about-sunflowers]

This is a really dumb and unimportant thing but I live to complain so I'm gonna:

The Revenge does not have a crows nest. It does not. It drives me CRAZY when I read in fic 'he/they was/were in the crows nest' because it does not have one. And because I know it's a dumb thing to be annoyed about.

What it DOES have are TOPS, which are little platforms on the masts that sit at different levels (with different names depending on which one). Stede and Ed were on the main-topmast the morning after the lighthouse fuckery.
