also this is such a random aside but when i think back on the fallout after season 8, i mostly remember the vitriol being aimed primarily at LM. while JDS was able to squeak by mostly unscathed. was there a genuine reason that people focused more of their ire towards LM? because i’m ngl over the last couple of years i’ve been thinking that if LM bore the brunt of the internet’s hatred over season 8, even though both she and JDS were both executive producers & most likely equally responsible for the show’s downturn, then LM might’ve been a victim of targeted misogyny

#like. why did we all primarily focus on ragging on the woman? if you get what i mean #i do remember jds posted like an apology on tumblr right? is that why people cooled off towards him?#i also think that part of the reason we all focused on LM is because she was a little more accessible to us --#we'd already been making jokes about jeremy and her basement for years by that point. so we were comfortable escalating the attention #when people talk about the showrunners of vld i've always felt that they focus more on LM than JDS #anyway just thinking out loud on a wednesday afternoon
