Also I'm only at chapter 20 or smth but god I hope Denis and Desmond can at least stay friends. Denis' story is actually so sad and I hope Desmond can find it in him to separate Denis from Charlon- even in the physical sense. Convince him he has been being taken advantage of and he can find another job elsewhere. Forget what you owe him, you've done enough.

i regularly forget that you and ponett are not the same person because youre both awesome creative trans women with deceptively similar names
I never foresaw it being a misconception until last year, haha. I got so many asks thanking me for my work on SLARPG and I went ???? Until I realized how closely Bobby Schroeder's handle was to mine

more yandere age up Schroeder content please or maybe just normal Schroeder!
-🍮pudding anon!
Oh, my god! Someone actually likes him too???? YESSSSSSS
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🎹 Schroeder wasn't good with his words, no matter how hard he tried- Though, he had never really tried, because he had never loved anything other than his piano. But now he was feeling emotions he had never felt before. It was exhausting. How was he supposed to confront the heart head on?
🎹 He knew how to write music, many pieces indeed, but writing a confession was just too hard for him. He was frustrated with his lack of creativity and emotion. He scrunched up the piece of paper he had previously been writing on and threw it away with the others.
🎹 He watched as you wrote on your paper, hoping to quickly get your homework done before the teacher asked for it, since you had forgotten about it last night. He sighed, leaning on his hand, everything else disappearing into the background
🎹 Lucy was becoming more of an annoyance for him. Ever since he realized his feelings for you, it seemed Lucy's love confessions got more annoying and bothersome. Maybe it was becomes Schroeder found it annoying that it was so easy for Lucy to confess her love, even after all the rejection, but it was so hard for him to even speak to you- Hell, he couldn't even write a letter/note
🎹 It's not like you were mean, per say. You were more of a loner, like him. You weren't always surrounded by people, so he could just approach you, but when he got close, his throat seemed to close up and his mouth became dry and his hands sweaty and his hearts starts to beat faster- Gosh! Why can't he just be normal
🎹 All that changes though, when a teacher puts you both together for an assignment. He was a little embarrassed when you were confused when hearing his name, not knowing his name, but when you saw his face, you recognized him
🎹 He's flustered when you approach him and make plans. Though, he becomes thrilled when realizing you were finally going to hang out- Granted it was for school, but still!
🎹 "You play the piano right?"
🎹 You know he plays the piano? Of course you knew that- Everyone knows... But, why would you ask about that? Were you curious about his other love? God, he would tell you all about it.
🎹 "I've always wanted to learn, but I don't know if I could ever do it. It seems complicated."
🎹 "I can teach you!" It comes out before he could stop himself and you were also taken aback. But you quickly lighten up and are thrilled at his offer.
🎹 "Oh, Schroeder, I would love that!"
🎹 Great... Now he's going to be alone with you and close to you on a small chair. He really just set himself up for embarrassment... But, maybe when showing you his talent, he'll be at peace and not so nervous

ranking dog sees god name changes based on how willing i am to believe them
peppermint patty -> tricia york: absolutely. absolutely i buy that she would go by a slightly different nickname for patricia when she’s older
marcie -> marcy: totally reasonable for her just just change the spelling
pigpen -> matt: i have no trouble believing that matt is his real name and pigpen was a childhood nickname
linus -> van: apparently van comes from linus’ last name so this is acceptable
charlie brown -> cb: fine
lucy -> van’s sister: …. :( give my girl her name back
sally -> cb’s sister: see above
schroeder -> beethoven: ??? i mean it makes sense cause he likes beethoven but feels unnecessary.

had a revelation that Rich Evans is like a grown up Charlie Brown. Everyone refers to him by his first and last name and he is tormented by life at every turn. Which makes Mike his Lucy (tormentor yet somehow his biggest cheerleader) and Jay can be Schroeder or something idk I didn’t think this out all the way through.
Oh yeah? Jay's Schroeder? For any particular reason perhaps?

[ … ]     ❀     you’re  not  from  around  here,  are  you?  i  figured  because  you  totally  just  missed  elena  de  luca  walking  by.  don’t  tell  me  you  don’t  know  who  they  are?  they  kind  of  look  like  olivia  cooke  and  i  could  be  wrong  but  i  think  that  they  might  be  twenty  seven  years  old  right  now.  they’ve  been  living  in  palmview  for  the  last  seventeen  years.  and  i  don’t�� know  if  anyone  has  ever  told  them  this  before  but  they  kind  of  remind  me  of  lorelai  gilmore  from  gilmore  girls.  if  you  stick  around  the  town  long  enough  you  might  catch  them  in  action  working  at  pearl's  seafood  bistro  as  a  waitress.  you  see  this  town  isn’t  really  that  big  of  a  place,  some  folks  like  to  call  them  the  lothario  of  palmview!  they  took  a  liking  to  the  name  too  after  a  while,  go  figure.  oh  crap,  they  must  have  heard  me  yapping.  they’re  coming  this  way.  i  got  to  warn  you  though,  rumor  has  it  they  can  pretty  impulsive  at  times.  i  wouldn’t  take  it  too  seriously  though,  from  the  times  i’ve  spoken  to  them  they  seemed  pretty  insouciant  to  me.  we  see  each  other  all  the  time  since  they  live  in  that  2  bedroom  apartment  beside  me  over  in  coral  cove.  i  better  leave  you  to  it.  it  was  nice  meeting  you!

✗     𝖡𝖨𝖮𝖦𝖱𝖠𝖯𝖧𝖸
born  two  minutes  before  their  younger  twin  brother,  they  made  sure  that  everyone  knew  that  they  were  the  first  one  to  enter  the  world,  especially  her  parents  when  they  didn't  pay  attention  to  her  right  away  after  whining.
growing  up  in  new  york  wasn't  for  the  light-hearted,  and  it  definitely  didn't  help  with  the  mending  of  the  eldest  de  luca's  mindset;  having  two  lawyer  parents  and  consistent  gifts  provided  whenever  wanted.  at  the  age  of  ten,  the  family  uprooted  themselves  to  move  to  palmview,  a  change  of  scenery  that  elena  hated  the  moment  their  eyes  landed  on  it.
with  mom  taking  an  early  retirement  to  be  a  stay  at  home  mom  with  twin's  at  the  age  of  ten  and  younger  child,  their  father  became  the  main  breadwinner  of  the  family  and  arguements  soon  began  to  take  hold  of  the  de  luca's  family  dinner  nights.  it  didn't  help  that  elena's  spoiled  nature  constantly  added  into  the  arguments,  screaming  at  the  top  of  her  lungs  for  any  ounce  of  attention,  which  was  usually  given  by  siblings  than  parents.
high  school  was  easy  for  elena,  solely  because  of  the  carefree  attitude  that  they  had  and  their  looks.  additionally,  it  was  never  a  downfall  that  the  de  luca  household  was  always  the  place  to  be  for  parties  +  how  easily  swayed  elena  was.  experimenting  with  drugs  and  finding  calmness  in  a  sip  of  alcohol  at  the  young  age  of  fifteen.
being  sex  positive  was  not  always  a  good  thing;  the  labels  of  slut  and  whore  came  from  many  of  the  girls  around  her,  but  it  rarely  affected  elena.  just  because  they  enjoyed  something  pleasurable  without  the  confinements  of  a  relationship  didn't  make  her  a  bad  person.  
at  the  age  of  nineteen,  their  parents  no  longer  wanted  to  provide  an  allowance  to  the  eldest  de  luca,  after  endless  spending  on  things  that  were  dramatically  unneeded.  this  caused  elena  to  begin  working  and  saving  up  for  the  spending  that  she  was  prone  to  doing  when  bored  and  stuck  inside  the  apartment  her  parents  bought  for  her.
college  was  not  something  that  they  could  handle,  entering  the  scene  at  the  age  over  twenty  one  and  dropping  out  two  years  later  with  only  a  couple  semesters  left  towards  graduating.  intelligent,  but  unmotivated,  they  couldn't  handle  the  constant  need  that  came  with  schooling.  using  the  time  to  explore  more  with  their  sexuality  and  spending  more  time  at  house  parties  than  doing  assignments.
now,  twenty  seven,  elena  believes  that  she's  unable  to  settle  down.  easily  bored  and  someone  that  needs  attention  constantly  in  a  relationship;  they  have  managed  to  find  a  routine  that  speaks  to  them.  working  at  a  high-class  restaurant  (rarely  sober,  of  course  they're  going  to  sneak  a  glass  of  wine  during  their  shift)  and  able  to  use  the  mass  amount  of  tips  provided  at  the  end  of  the  night  to  supply  them  with  the  luxury  that  they  believe  that  deserve.

Let's Read Peanuts (Yes, all of it) – August 1953
There are lots of great strips I just don't have room to comment on. I strongly encourage everybody to read the full month at the official GoComics page. Today's month starts HERE.
Aug 2, 1953
Tumblr media
Flawless misdirection. No notes.
Aug 5, 1953
Tumblr media
I have absolutely no idea what Schroeder could mean by this. Maybe it's a bit of pianist lingo? But if that's the case it didn't come up when I googled it.
Aug 7, 1953
Tumblr media
Ghosts are real in the Peanuts universe and they are allowed to have bank accounts.
Aug 16, 1953
Tumblr media
And now we've stopped using thought balloons and are just having the dog talk now. Weird.
I have no idea why Schulz was so all over the place with this particular detail of the strip. I'm fairly certain thought balloons were a well-established thing by this point so there wasn't really a need to reinvent the wheel here.
Aug 18, 1953
Tumblr media
And that's Schroeder's last appearance. Kind of a bummer but he had a good run.
Aug 28, 1953
Tumblr media
OK you've done this punchline at least ten times now. PLEASE MOVE ON.
Aug 31, 1953
Tumblr media
They are becoming friends. :3
Thoughts:
One of the things I find incredibly fascinating about Peanuts is that it exists in this weird gray area somewhere between an autobiography and a purely fictional story. All of the characters and events are definitely fictional, yet the strip is so jam-packed full of details pulled directly from Schulz's life that reading Peanuts gives you quite a surprising amount of insight into the person who made it.
Schulz REALLY liked to put his personal life into the strip. Like, to an unhealthy degree. Sometimes this was in overt ways he told people about, sometimes it was in sneaky ways he though people wouldn't notice. If he needed a character name he'd borrow one from a childhood friend. If the kids needed a team sponsor he'd throw his Dad's barbershop on a shirt. If he was getting caught having an affair he'd write about Snoopy having to stop seeing the hot girl dog he was thirsty for (you think I'm joking, but I'm not).
The result was something that is just as much about Schulz himself as it was about sad children getting football injuries. And that's pretty neat, right? You just don't get that kind of authentic personal expression from a billion dollar media franchise very often.

Race For Your Life, Charlie Brown (who is running this camp?!), part 1
Tumblr media
[All images are owned by Paramount and Peanuts Worldwide. Please don’t sue me or send me to this camp]
[All video clips are courtesy of Rotten Tomatoes]
With summer starting, parents need to figure out what to do with their kids since school is no longer an option. Popular options are…
Take time off of work to take family vacations (see the Nation Lampoon’s Vacation franchise for examples of how this could go horribly wrong)
If the kids are old enough, make them get summer jobs
If they’re too young to be employed, but old enough to be trusted alone, let them stay home
If parents want to see their kids, but don’t trust them to stay home, they could send them to a day camp and pick them up after work
Then there’s the subject of this review from the mid-70s: If the parents want the summer off from their kids, they could ship them off to summer camp.
We will assume that most of you are familiar with Peanuts (or at least the Charlie Brown holiday specials) At the very least I reviewed one based on a movie about burlesque dancing), but just in case…
Peanuts was a daily comic strip created by Charles Shultz in 1950 and ran until shortly before his death in 2000. Schultz always hated the title (he originally named it Li’l Folks, but that name was already copyrighted so the publisher came up with the name that endured), which is why none of the animated shows, specials, and movies didn’t use the title until after Schultz’s death (every single one before had the main character’s name in the title) While the core cast hasn’t changed much over the years, minor characters have come and gone. The characters important to this review are…
Tumblr media
Charlie Brown is the epitome of the downtrodden. He is laughed at by those he thinks of as friends, gets no respect from most (including his dog), and almost never comes out on top. For whatever reason, he is always (with one notable exception) referred to by his full name, rather than just his first.
Tumblr media
Charlie Brown’s little sister Sally has all the red flags of a Karen-in-Training. She constantly complains about how Life Isn’t Fair to get her way (she once whined her way into getting a grade raised)
Tumblr media
Lucy van Pelt is best described as the sociopath of the group. She absolutely has to be the center of attention and delights in tormenting Charlie Brown (especially with Charlie Brown kicking a football, constantly pulling it away at the last second so Charlie Brown lands flat on his back (she once did so during a football game in which Charlie Brown’s kick meant the difference between winning and losing. Three guesses who got blamed for the loss))
Lucy’s little brother Linus is likely the wisest of the gang. He has a dependency on his baby blanket, carrying it everywhere. He is also the target of Sally’s crush, much to his chagrin (she often refers to Linus as her “Sweet Baboo”)
Tumblr media
Schroeder is a musical prodigy who worships the works of Beethoven. He carries around a pint-sized grand piano that he can play virtually anything on from memory. Lucy had decided that he is the man she’ll marry, no matter what he says (I say she’ll wind up settling for Charlie Brown)
Tumblr media
Snoopy is Charlie Brown’s pet beagle. He walks like a human, acts like a human, and does everything humans do except talk (because THAT was where Schultz drew the line)
Snoopy’s best friend is Woodstock (yes, he was named after what you think he was named after) Woodstock can barely fly straight, but is eternally cheerful.
Tumblr media
Franklin is…look, there’s no easy way to put this. He’s the token black kid. He was added to the comic strip in response to Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination. Unfortunately, he’s generally not treated well in animation. If he’s not being outright ignored, he’s being stereotypically black (such as break dancing) or segregated (in A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, for example, he was the only kid on his side of the table while all of the white kids were on the other side)
Tumblr media
Peppermint Patty is a tomboy and…well, she’s pretty much a Force of Nature. She pretty much gets everyone to do what she wants by not letting anyone get a word in edgewise. Fortunately, she’s (mostly) well-meaning, if a bit dense at times (she’s the only member of the gang who doesn’t realize Snoopy’s a dog) I’m not sure if she has a crush on Charlie Brown (or as she calls him, “Chuck”) or if she enjoys watching his squirm (interestingly, he doesn’t object despite clearly being uncomfortable about it)
Marcy is Peppermint Patty’s best friend and chief foil. Marcy is very soft-spoken, but is the first one to call Peppermint Patty on her strong-arm BS. For whatever reason, she refers to Peppermint Patty as “sir” (a large portion of the fans have a head canon that they’re in a relationship)
Now that we have the cast, on with the show! If you would like to watch the movie, it’s available behind your favorite paywall.
We open (in the credits) with the gang on a bus on their way to camp, with Snoopy not far behind on his “hawg” (that he’s never had before or since) I’m VERY curious what’s up with the landscape around the suburb they live in, they go through forest as the credits roll, then it immediately turns into desert.
As the credits end, the bus passes by a gas station with a pair of kids hanging out by the pump for some reason. Sally waves at them, but the girl blows a razzberry at her.
Tumblr media
Sally gets her wish as the bus gets a blowout immediately after. The driver (that we don’t see; one thing about Peanuts is you never actually SEE the adults...and if you hear them, they say “MWAH WAH WAH WAH”) fixes the flat while Sally marches right up to the girl and…
Tumblr media
…immediately backs down and slinks back onto the bus.
Later, the bus stops at another gas station to refuel (they couldn’t do so while fixing the flat?), so the gang takes the opportunity to stretch their legs. Charlie Brown gets distracted talking to Snoopy and…

What kind of bus driver doesn’t take a head count before leaving?!
Fortunately, Snoopy has room on his hawg and gives Charlie Brown a ride. Unfortunately, Snoopy decides to take a “short cut” through some of the roughest patches in the desert, making Charlie Brown close to getting sick by the time they arrive (behind the bus, so what was the point of all of that?)
Tumblr media
…and suddenly we’re in the middle of the woods again.
While staggering around and desperately trying not to vomit, Charlie Brown accidentally bumps into three older kids (bullies) who immediately take a disliking to him.
Tumblr media
Fortunately, the PA (with a kid at the mic. Are there no adults that are more qualified?) announces registration has begun so Charlie Brown can excuse himself before the bullies can feed him to their cat. Unfortunately, they run into him again when they cut the line and Sally tries to sic Charlie Brown on them.
Tumblr media
(Yeah, like that would work)
Tumblr media
Fortunately, Linus is there to Save The Day.
Later, as everyone fills out their registration forms (shouldn’t they have done that BEFORE they crossed a desert to come here?) Sally bitches about it, so Peppermint Patty waxes philosophical about the need to leave your comfort zone.
Tumblr media
(…and people wonder why the fandom thinks Peppermint Patty and Marcie are a couple)
After filling out their forms, the gang heads for their tents (the boys in one, the girls in the other…
Tumblr media
…and Snoopy in his own)
In the girls’ tent, Peppermint Patty suggests that they run things in a democratic fashion, including voting for a leader. Of course, Peppermint Patty has the election won, since we all know Marcie will vote for her.
Tumblr media
So with everyone voting for themselves, Peppermint Patty decides she should cast the deciding vote…for herself (wait, there are more than four beds. Don’t the other girls in the tent get a say?)
That evening…
youtube
Nothing like roughing it, eh Snoopy?
The next morning…
Tumblr media
PA kid has the campers out for morning calisthenics, followed by breakfast and morning activities (no, I’m not doing a montage. It’s as boring as it sounds) Then lunch happens.
Tumblr media
Maybe Sally should complain to the manager.
After lunch…
Tumblr media
The bullies are at it again.
Tumblr media
…but they forgot about Linus.
PA Kid then announces that the Camp Games (pitting all of the tents against one another) will begin. Naturally…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
…the bullies cheat. Where are the adults who are supposed to be keeping things fair?
WHO IS RUNNING THIS CAMP?!
As the gang sulks about losing to a bunch of cheaters, PA Kid announces the Main Event of the summer.
Tumblr media
The other tents know they don’t stand a chance, meaning there are only four competitors: the boys (sporting a raft held afloat by four inner tubes), the girls (in an inflatable life raft), Snoopy and Woodstock (in a single inner tube) and the bullies, who are competing in this monstrosity…
Tumblr media
…complete with radar, sonar, and an outboard motor. You know, if they can afford this contraption, why are they slumming it at Camp Remote?
The teams spend all afternoon inflating their rafts…
Tumblr media
…only for the bullies to use that air to inflate theirs overnight. (I guess the electric air pump was a bit more than they could afford)
The next morning, the teams must once again inflate their rafts before the race begins and they all set out (if a bit winded)
youtube
[At this point, I would like to point out that the bullies act like every cartoon villain in every race ever: They have the means to get far ahead of the competition, and would likely win the race by several miles, but they need to take the time to cheat and “prove” their superiority]
That evening, the bullies manage to pry their raft out from under the dock and sneak past the other teams as they sleep until they come to…
Tumblr media
They then flip the sign so it points in the opposite direction.
Wait, they scheduled an unsupervised race involving kids at a time when there’s blasting happening?!
WHO THE HELL IS RUNNING THIS CAMP?!
Later in the evening, it starts snowing (Hang on. It’s SNOWING in the middle of summer in a forest next to a fucking desert?!) The next morning Woodstock has some fun at Snoopy’s expense.
Tumblr media
With that bit of levity out of the way the race continues, and they come to the bullies’ trap.
youtube
Despite being nearly pulverized by falling rocks, the channel proved to be a short cut as the gang emerges ahead of the bullies (no doubt sleeping in, knowing they no longer have any competition)
As the bullies rush to catch up…
Tumblr media
…a massive storm hits, threatening to sink all of the rafts! (Wait, no one bothered to check the weather report before the race?)
In fact, Snoopy’s tube capsizes, sending both he an Woodstock into the river! Snoopy manages to swim back to his tube, but Woodstock is lost in the water!
WILL Woodstock survive? (I’m sure he’ll be fine. I mean, he was in specials and the comic strip that were published after this)
WHO will win the race?
WHO THE FUCK IS RUNNING THIS CAMP?!?!?!
These questions and more will be answered in the exciting conclusion!

Okay as far as fans go right now it seems obvious who’s fans are the most agro about buying their team’s jerseys has got to be Boston because of the preorderable name jerseys go the fleet is the only team with both already sold out!
Frankel’s sold out yesterday like way early in the day and Knight’s sold out last night some time
Like not to flex but all the other teams have at least 1 still available.
Toronto’s still got Spooner, Ottawa has both Jenner and Clark, Montreal still has Ambrose, Minnesota still has both Heise and Zumwinkle, and New Yorks still got Carpenter and Schroeder available at the time of this post.
I’m just super proud of us for being so enthusiastic to rep the Fleet! I love the our fans! This season is going to be so so good!

I just saw your Archie Tails lore dump and I'm sorry. I need to know more about the Echidnas. I know very little about them other than the fact there are a lot of them and that knuckles has a half brother?
Are any of them actually interesting or worth talking about?
ehhhh. there are a few echidnas i might be able to talk about, but the vast majority of the echidna lore i either have no idea how to explain or completely forgot.
this is partially because the echidna characters tend to be a bit boring, but mostly because there are... so many. in the games, knuckles is the last of his kind and most of the echidna history is limited to the ancient knuckles clan. archie sonic is NOTHING like that - there are more echidnas in the story than ANY other species i'm pretty sure.
for context, this is what knuckles’ family tree looks like:
Tumblr media
i only remember who six of the echidnas on this tree are, and one of them is knuckles. like who tf is moon-watcher please message me if anyone knows
i DO know who knuckles' half brother is though. his name is kneecaps, (full name knecapeon mace), and he's my favorite echidna in the whole series.
Tumblr media
i'm not the best source for a lot of echidna lore, but there’s a good recap of the archie knuckles series here on the Thanks, Ken Penders blog by Bobby Schroeder! she goes over some of the crazier echidna moments and does an excellent job at highlighting how wack most of the series is.
i do enjoy bits and pieces of the echidna lore, so i think the characters i might be able to talk about are:
julie-su (knuckles' girlfriend)
lara-su (knuckles' future daughter)
locke (knuckles' shitty dad)
lien-da (evil girlboss)
and dr. finitevus, who has one of the best designs in all of sonic:
Tumblr media
he gets some cool stuff to do because he isn't written by ken penders LMAO
but yeah, i'll be honest and admit i don't know a whole lot about most of the echidnas. i will absolutely complain about locke tho he SUCKS
