#hellcheer are Not Real BUT their actors are which means they are still deserving of ✨basic human decency✨

I'm late to the party, what's going on in hellcheer land?? I knew grace is dating a johnny depp fan but has more happened? (Feel free to just ignore this if you don't wanna answer btw, i know you might not wanna invite drama onto your blog!!)

I am going to risk answering this but only because I have no idea.

I am honest to God probably the worst person to ask about this because I am so extremely Out Of The Loop when it comes to the goings on of celebrities because, to be quite frank, I don't care. What famous people do in their personal lives doesn't affect me and my opinions on things are rarely anything more than "oh cool" or "ew". The most involved I get is following some on Instagram but even then it's only a select few.

I think a lot/the majority of whatever is going on is/was happening on twitter and i don't have twitter so i've only ever seen whatever's trickled onto here (which even then is very very little because, again, it doesn't affect me and also I think I've just tailored my blog to my tastes so that stuff doesn't typically cross my feed beyond the occasional reblog from a mutual or that one anonymous ask I got one time)

That being said, fiction ≠ reality and characters ≠ the individuals who portray them. I am in hellcheer land, as you put it (which I like that btw, I'm going to keep using it lol), for Hellcheer The Characters. I will acknowledge that there is "drama" that is either starting or continuing to infiltrate hellcheer land even though it has no place to do so. Hellcheer is fictional and fandom is supposed to be a fun community experience and by allowing your feelings about Certain Matters to significantly affect the fandom and other people you are making it an unfun community experience and that's kind of mid tbh :( If there's going to be drama (which there inevitably will be) it needs to, imo, not be brought into hellcheer land because, again, hellcheer is fictional and characters are not real people and real people are not characters

celtics just won their game and as a bonus boston booed william and kate bc apparently the city still has boston tea party energy, so: 🔥🔥🔥🔥! would love some stranger things hot takes

fun fact -- my cousin used to assistant coach for the celtics! i take this victory as a personal one (and i'm happy for you, part of a roster of Hot Jock Friends i have!!!)

here are a few! i can definitely get into much more textual stuff, but my brain is mush right now and i am gonna keep it fun. lemme know if there's specifics you want and if

i am team Nancy Doesn't Need A Man. fuck the love triangle! let her shoot some monsters in the face, move to boston, and go radio silent for a few years.

speaking of nancy, she didn't kill barb. she was a horny teenager who no longer wished to be a virgin, which is not a crime. barb did not deserve to die by any means, but she also could have gone home. steve had a car!

i am in a silent minority who does not think barb had a crush on nancy, because i don't find that narratively interesting. i find it far more interesting that she is a straight girl who is tall and bigger and jealous of her very thin, very pretty friend and is growing apart from her, and she would like to have a guy as hot as steve pay attention to her.

to expand on that point, the narrative that reads as a queer girl to me much more is ms max mayfield! i was a difficult, tomboyish girl with long blunt cut hair who dated the first boy who treated me like a human being long term. i am now super queer and hella trans. i know i'm not alone in thinking this! lucas, to me, is probably the first and last boy she dates.

hellcheer, to me, is gay and lesbian solidarity. i can see the conclusion that the shippers came to, but i'm doing different math, apparently. (crediting my beautiful sparkly for that phrasing).

top-vers gay eddie and bottom-vers bi steve is where my heart lives with these two. they're switchy but have preferences! love a sub top eddie and dom bottom steve too.

i am here for will being evil in season 5. i want him to kill everyone who has ever hurt him. noah's the best of the young actors, give him something to do.

stoncy >> stonathan/jancy >> stancy. that's it, that's the ranking.

i'm not sure if any of these are actually hot takes, so mayhaps this will be one: as happy as i am that jopper finally happened, it would have been interesting if hopper had been killed off for real at the end of season 3.
