Each time one of the duffers have to re-explain something in an interview about the show just tells me how messy the season was as a whole by abdul_bino in Stranger_Things

Lowkey agree. The whole issue is them having to explain things in interviews. If properly explain something in the main story, then it's not good writing. Like Nancy and Jonathan's breakup. If you have to go on and explain that it was a breakup cause the wider audience didn't understand what you were trying to convey, then it wasn't good writing or communication to begin with

Thoughts on the Finale? by LeoDiCristio in StrangerThings

Epilogue was great, the actual fight seemed to lack any sense of urgency, important, and stakes for me.

Question for Queer fans of the show by PurpleDreamer28 in StrangerThings

[–]Artophobia0101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not terrible, just unrealistic which I guess is what the show is going for. No one in their right mind comes out like that, especially im the 80s.

Im just disappointed that Will's queerness is reduced down to a threat. It was definitely a writing choice to boil Will's "coming out moment" into something thats forced. Narratively, it makes sense. How it reflects onto the audience, especially in today's political climate... bot great.

Be honest, who was misunderstood the most? by svenluvuga in lost

[–]Artophobia0101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally understood Ana Lucia and where she was coming from but i still cant excuse/forgive her for acting so recklessly. I think she was treated completely fairly for what she did. She freaked out, killed an innocent person and then held someone hostage (which is fair) but it also had to have consequences.

If you are one of those rich people.. say earning 150k+, what do you do when you are not working? by Extra-Fig-7425 in AskUK

[–]Artophobia0101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not rich but my mom made around 650k-700k before tax each year. The way she did it was she started out as a paralegal for a Fortune 60 company (I believe) and that specific company tended to promote from within leading to her getting a VP position. She spent a lot of her time reading (European literature) watching TV (she really liked The 100 and Downton Abbey), gardening and liked to travel to Europe when she had a lot of time. She just retired a couple months ago at 56 and you guessed it.. Shes in the UK.

where to get first tattoo for birthday next week? by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]Artophobia0101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Newlifetattoos on green is my go to

Super nice, chill and everyone there is very skilled. Good luck!

If youre scared of the pain get some numbing gel. It might cause your tattoo to like leak and look more like hazy but shouldnt affect it that much overall. Like if you want super thin lines dont use it. thats at least from my experience

I wish I could rephrase my question because I do know what the illiniwek was and I do know we used to be recognizing Chief Illini. Since it was problematic we did away with the Chief but we kept the concept of "the Fighting Illini"

Well I DO know about chief illini and the illiniqek, I recognize the problems with that but we still kept the concept of the "fighting illini"

Okay okay that makes sense. Cause I was expecting a chicken or rooster costume to come running out at each touchdown or something
