Anyone knows what this asshole is trying to do? He’s straight up trying to destroy the US from the inside out and trying to get access into the US treasury’s payment system. Pressuring the previous FAA director to resign after the FAA found that spacex was not prioritising safety enough, then now with all the guardrails removed or fired suddenly a Blackhawk slams into a plane and kills everyone on board? And now he’s saying he wants to work with Boeing to produce the new air force one, what can go wrong? Two companies famous for their products malfunctioning in fatal ways. And he’s getting his smelly hands into every government trying to influence them or their alt right population like the AFD. Anyone someone should look into him but they won’t, he’ll personally make sure of that.

I am NOT looking forward to that Sunkissed talk today.

Already heard him explain it to Pangi and was not impressed. His plan was to "give Zam a taste of (her) medicine by helping the enemy team" or something like that (he implied, like Zam had done with the Bacon wardens , and the Jumper hearts etc..). And it was a way to show her how its "bad" to play all sides... which.. urgh....

Zams whole thing is about Balance: He helped Bacon because, realistically Bacon was doing something for the server (by making it active again) and was gonna get banned by natural causes. So Zam decided she wanted to be a helping hand in making everything more fun, and make Bacon last just long enough for everyone to be satisfied in the arc. Bacon was alone in his effort, a clear underdog. When He found the materials chest, Bacon was only on 2. He needed the help or he could have easily gotten banned

(ik he said he would have probably gotten the materials himself, but like technically he could've died obtaining them, while afking a farm. Or something. Ending the arc randomly, casually. In an even less satisfying way, as Bacon put his banning as the "stop spawning wardens" condition)

Without Zams help, things would've played out differently. And its not like she wasn't out for Bacon's blood, she wanted to ban him almost more than anyone. She Just wanted to give more time for him to achieve his true goal of understanding Subz.

Again to Zam it's all about Balance and helping the server itself function, so when a low-hearts player has a cool idea, even tho they're your enemy, if they're in dire need: you help them, because nobody else will. It gives people a chance to log on the server, and do stuff, and be active enough to have those ideas and put them into fruition (and make the server intresting. A way to make things HAPPEN). It's such a noble and important cause for a content-oriented-server. That recently seems to be more pvp-oriented (or that's how the chunpire's ideals would seem to make it).

And I would like to say that there is NOTHING wrong with not understanding Zam's goals and her view on the server. Nobody is expected to, and realistically, it is more interesting for people to oppose her.

But what is odd, is having a player, seemingly piece together Zam was helping Bacon. Confront her about it, and sit there and pretend to have a complete understanding of it, and promise to always be by her side. Just to go ahead and do something behind her back, and then claim to be doing it for Zam's sake ????????? The only way you could see these situations as similar, is by viewing what Zam did with Bacon and Jumper, as "Betrayal" yourself, which would again prove that Derap did NOT understand Zam.

It's not a crime to betray, it's more annoying how Derap doesn’t see it as such, and thinks he's somehow in the right, and is gonna try and make Zam feel bad for it, by "apologising" for all the wrong things. But, again, he has already kinda revealed his true thoughts in part. "I didn't like that you gave Jumper hearts". which, again, makes Derap's way of thinking closer to Mapicc's than Zam. Then, why did he lie back then?

If he TRULY understood Zam, he could easily see how giving Bacon hearts and giving Chungpire are not that comparable. If the goal is Balance, helping a team which is already significantly stronger than yours, and has goals that are fundamentally opposite to them, is not really,,, the move, per say... Atlas was the underdog. The chumpire would have probably won every fight and confrontation even without the extra information.

It's almost like Derap pretended to understand her just to be by her side, while not listening or respecting her enough to ACTUALLY understand her motives. Which is something that has been happening her season between sunkissed. Derapchu pushing this relationship, repeating the same phrases of "I care about you most" "ill always be by your side" Sweet stuff, said in a vacuum. But when you listen to the way he talks to other people, you see that mask fall.

Will never forget him telling Zam over and over again how "nobody respected you for how much care you put into rebuilding spawn!". But when Bacon was the one rebuilding it, Derap would get in the call and ask the same damn questions Zam was always so tired of other people asking. "Why are you doing this Bacon? What's the point?" And even started saying stuff like "why even rebuild spawn the way it was before? Why not make new builds?". The same type of questions Zam has been asked time and time again. The same questions that someone who actually understands her Knows not to ask. Because in a way, that is exactly the kind of disrespect Zam was shown by other players. The behaviour Derap was condemning in front of Zam, but practicing on another Spawn-repairer.

And then he lied to Zam about Bacon choosing to not repair Zam's builds? and trying to claim he was completely alone in the warden efforts. Says it was a miscommunication error, but it was really convenient how it was used to push this idea of "it's just us two against the world" sentiment that he had been trying to convince Zam of all season huh....

((Then the Flame fights happened, and Derap called her "insane" and "crazy" for basically throwing herself at the enemy time and time again, and said that She was "stupid" for not asking for his help. yet on Evbo-day when Mane, Flame and Clown were chasing her. Derap made some sly comment of dismissal when asked if he wanted to help Zam at all. (something like responding "probably somewhere getting killed by flame idk" when asked where Zam was... or he said something about there being no point. i don't remember exaclty and i'm not bothered enough to go check, sorry). But then seemed so proud of her after. convienent))

And let's not forget the whole “forgetting to tell her he had been using exploited items (prot-4 armour) for months” ordeal. Something Zam has been deeply against for YEARS. saying "no more secrets" but being caught in another lie again and again, and saying "he forgot" to tell her that one small detail... but it happened like 3 times in a row. I already said it somewhere, but to me, that day is when Sunkissed should've ended as a teamup.

But back to the betrayal itself. From the way he put it, i got that, he didn’t agree with the way Zam thinks (despite telling her the whole season he did), and instead of communicating that, he was gonna go behind his back, to give the enemy team information, to “show her a lesson” on why playing all sides is bad. (again proving that He didn’t listen to or understand Zam at all, only pretended to).

It’s just so wild to me, because this is definitely targeted, he’s gonna say this was for “Zam’s greater good”, but you cannot tell me that this doesn’t come from bitterness. He didn’t like Zam giving hearts to Jumper at all. Then says “we need teammates Zam, sort things out with Mapicc”. But when the teammate who helps is ManePear, Derap isn’t happy (which.. Okay,, fair enough ig,, but how come Zam HAS to settle his differences with Mapicc, but he can’t with Mane?). When talking to Pangi Derap says “I would never work with Mapicc!” when that is exactly what he was trying to push Atlas into doing. Also, to add, he DID work with Mapicc When he GAVE HIM PANGI’S COORDS in secret, again when his goal was to teach “Pangi a lesson”, lying again.

And if we REALLY wanna compare this with the giving bacon hearts situation, there is ONE clear difference between those two situations. When Zam was confronted by Derap on whether or not she did it, Zam confessed everything. He was honest with Derapchu, explained his reasoning and everything, because he felt bad lying to him. But we know damn well Derapchu doesn’t feel bad lying to Zam, that’s all he’s been doing this season. When they were face to face, in that base, Zam asked again and again if Derapchu was betraying, and Derapchu goes “Are you crazy???? Are you insane? I would never work WITH MAPICC” now we know he was clearly latching onto a technicality, he wanted to work with Minute (who works with Mapicc, and told him everything), but he never misses a chance to make Zam feel lesser than for his paranoia, and talks down to her. Because he thinks he knows what’s best for her. During the Bacon confrontantion Derapchu insisted that he wasn't mad at Zam for the hearts themelves, but more of the fact that she didn't tell the team, which, when looking back, is pretty ironic. Because Zam in the end conefssed everything to him when confronted, Derap didn't.

Then when Zam tries to kill him anyway. Derapchu, after running away,  has THE NERVE to message her “i forgive you” before logging out. A slap to the face. (im genuinely going to rip my hair out thinking back to that).

Derap says to Zam. “I forgive you” beucase, at that point, Zam didn't have enough proof of the betrayal yet to be 100% sure (the killing attempt was a test after all), so he wanted her to doubt herself, and make her think she was somehow at fault (because someone who needs to be forgiven has to have done something wrong,, right?) By sending that message Derap was targeting the fondness Zam had for him at one point. And trying to manipulate his way back into the team. During all of this Derap is betraying, but doesn't think he is. Insane stuff.

Then Woogie comes in after shouting “what the fuck did you do” making Zam feel guilty for everything, as if she was the one at fault, which lead to her throwing herself into the void (the guilt tripping worked). And then, later, she gets the proof straight from Mapicc’s mouth, and Here comes Derap saying “I’m sorry I lied to you” in messages. Only sorry when caught.

Genuinly so frustrating, but intresting... Derap pretends to understand Zam to her face, to keep her by his side, but his actions are fueled by bitterness of his misunderstanding of her. he is the one who put himself in the situation of "always being by Zam's side" when he doesn't even make an effort to properly understand her, and only repeats sweet nothings to gain her affection and trust.

Last thing. At the end of the Pangi talk, Derap says that his goal is to "save everyone", to have everyone unbanned. and, again, nice goal. awesome, you unbanned a bunch of people. okay, but that "everyone" seems to be a little distorted. With the screenshot he posted on twitter, it seems he unbanned everyone EXCEPT Flame, Mane (and Evbo). Just like he didn't like Zam giving hearts to Jumper. hypocrite. It's more "Help everyone who hasn't been mean to me" which, isn't a bad goal, you can have that as a goal, but don't try to hide yourself behind a noble cause when you're as selfish as the rest of the server. nothing wrong with that again, you need to own up to it.

but this again prooves that he his and Zam's goal never truly aligned.

Queer Mike Wheeler

I swear some people don't understand how important it would be for Mike to be queer. I may be a little biased because I'm a big Byler shipper but there are so many hints that make him queercoded. He is more queercoded than Will, the CONFIRMED GAY CHARACTER. But people don't see it but that's also the point. Let me explain:

He has internalized homophobia and forces himself to be "normal" and live up to society's standards. He wants to be as normal as possible sexuality wise.

If he doesn't have internalized homophobia then it would mean that he became an asshole to his best friend, Will, and his presumed love interest/gf, El, for no reason.

If he doesn't have internalized homophobia/he isn't queer, it wouldn't make sense:

- that he couldn't hug his best friend who he hasn't seen in six months

- how both he and Will exaggerated the time that has passed since they have last seen each other. They DOUBLED the time, it's been six months but for them, it's been a year because they've missed each other

- that, despite Will thinking that he was being completely ignored at Rink O Mania, he described what Will was doing as if he's been observing him the entire time while he was supposed to have his attention on El

- when he and Will were arguing, Will said "what about us?" and he took it romantically, repeating the sentence "We're friends" twice, like he was trying to convince more himself than Will. Will meant the question friendship wise, but Mike taking it romantically might indicate that he has been questioning and thinking about their relationship that past "year"

- for him to have his eyes wide open when El kissed him in the last episode of s3 or for him to make that face after the kiss

- (still in the finale of s3) that he looked back at Byers's house for El because El didn't live there. He looked back for Will because he knows he'll miss him. You could also take this friendship wise but him being sadder for his best friend rather than his gf is very suspicious if you ask me 🤨🏳‍🌈

There are way more hints to prove he is queercoded but this isn't the point of this post, I simply went a bit off tracks.

I'm putting my whole trust on the Duffer Brothers for them to do the right thing because queer Mike Wheeler would show an experience for gay men in the 80s: suppressing themselves, trying to fit the "norm" and have a girlfriend. It would be very important for queer representation, not only in this show, but also in general because it's also "unexpected" because you wouldn't expect him to be queer because he hides his queerness in the safety of an hetero relationship.

I'm not saying mileven fans can't ship mileven, they can, but I'd like for them to understand the possibility of this, especially with that amount of queercoding, instead of saying "I won't watch the show if Byler happens".

Honestly, I think the Duffer Brothers are making it happen in s5, the last season, on purpose. What is Netflix gonna do? Cancel the show? Too late for that! It's already over!

If Mileven fans understand that queer Mike could happen and how great of an impact it would have, then I'm happy but for now I only saw two Mileven fans like that.

Anyways, heartmilheart out. Best believe I will make more posts about Stranger Things 😎 (I have some in mind already)

CRASH: From the top in a nutshell

[temporaltourguide]

i think im fixating on this series, ive pretty much non-stop been listening to the spotify playlists

[shadz420]

I LOVE THIS SM!!

Target from Crash. Can you tell he’s my favorite?

@shadz420 it’s not Red vs Blue, but it’s halo related, plus you’re the one who recommended to watch it.

[reo-bylerwagon]

no one should be crashing out over this

first of all: “bc of just the beginning of the show”

aka s1 and s2 m!leven before they started deconstructing their relationship

also did we really think finn would be able to just straight up say he ships byler in the same way noah can (his character is canonically in love with mike). and btw even noah had to ask permission if he could talk about wills feelings for mike, and cara had to take over and redirect it.

jumping to conclusions with things like this is never beneficial and it just causes unnecessary stress for everyone.

all i’m saying is think of all the proof we have. the confirmation we have. the canonical foreshadowing and similar elements.

like this. finn’s choice of words here is imo really well delivered. mike is a “natural outsider”

also in no way in this answer does finn imply the supposed “canon” establishment that mike fell in love with el at first sight. this is a contradiction, and whether it’s on purpose or not, it is something fresh in finn’s mind after just finishing filming as mike from almost a year. these are the kinds of things finn is thinking about when thinking about mike’s character and his relationships.

[red-ruth]

What I find so funny ab Marc is that he’s obviously a lying liar and he’ll say one thing to the media w a straight face, totally calm chill, unbothered but then as soon as he gets on the bike that all goes out the window and PR training could not touch him with a ten foot pole

[b00mrang]

No Valentines detour this year. Have these as a consolation.

[miwiheroes]

i feel like there's this weird phenomenon in fandom/shipping culture where if one headcanon seems a little bit ooc then ppl place that same exact headcanon onto the other person in the ship and it ends up being EVEN MORE OOC
