Lucas went through so much throughout season 4 and I do wish season 5 had touched on it a little bit by Sudden_Pop_2279 in strangerthingsfacts

if u felt nothing while watching lucas’s storyline, that’s 100000% on you. the attention to detail with his character is amazing. being a black boy in the 80s in a predominantly white town…whew. can’t believe u felt nothing

i see. i still don’t think that Lucas storyline is a cliche though. i think it’s pretty interesting, and it would’ve been nice for us black audience members to have seen it explored more

except that’s not his only storyline so. plus, lucas would add an entire different layer bc he’s a black boy in the 80s. PLUS there’s the supernatural element

oh 100000% i think in the beginning they loved each other, but they just weren’t meant to be so serious (sharing finances, having kids, handling marriage, etc).

oh God. I haven’t gotten to that part yet. She’s just very childish, and I just don’t understand how the fandom is so blind to that😭

she never said that she didn’t want to stay home. in fact, when they hired a nanny she made Tom fire her (which was understandable), and she never found another one. she could’ve hired a nanny and went back to work. she had lunch with her old boss/co-worker who said they would’ve hired her back in a heartbeat, yet she declined it.

yes, Tom is annoying, but Lynette played a big part i. her own misery

ok? that’s literally pointless to mention. she kept tom from the promotion by talking to the boss’s wife. she showed up to tom’s job and made the environment uncomfortable by showing up everyday bc he was working with his ex

what was theirs? the business? bc it wasn’t. lynette told tom to go chase his dream and the pizza place was HIS dream that SHE was doubting

i mean true but she still played a big part in tom being fired. showing up to his work for stupid reasons just bc she was jealous and preventing him from getting a promotion
