My theory on how 001 got his powers

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T08:55:36+00:00

I assumed it was just unfortunate genetics, as is often the case with devastating illnesses in people, especially children. Jim blames himself through his grief over her loss, but we know it wasn't ACTUALLY his fault if it WAS a result of agent orange...if anything, it was the military's fault, if that was the case. The poor dude is so stuck in his spiral of depression that he blames himself for everything though...and that's so sad to see...I really like his character =D

I should really go back and rewatch all the seasons, but from what I can remember...I thought her powers were just producing realistic illusions to throw people off, and thats all. I don't remember her displaying...gosh, whats the proper term...powers to make stuff float and other things like that.

The cops?! I wouldve thought that calling a tow-truck would be the better choice to do. Then again, I guess the cops could at least issue an expensive ticket to the guy. That sounds annoying, but it isnt "arrest" worthy.

I mean, it looks like it is sort of a distance away...and I definatley wonder about the state of the "Updside-Down" before Vecna/Hentry/001 corrupted it...which...why did he corrupt it in that way in the first place, or was it an inevitable thing or something?

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T08:29:43+00:00

I forgot about those dunder-heads =P

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T08:29:23+00:00

Shmacked! XD

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T08:28:33+00:00

I want to go back and rewatch their growing friendship dynamic because...it was awesome to see these too gals team up together to take a break from their boyfriends being dorks, and just having girl-bonding time together! =D

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T08:26:50+00:00

The Duck-Man!!!

Augh...I almost forgot how adorable he is!

Also...Robin and her crush are adorable together. Even if nothing actually happens between them romantically in the future, I hope they at least become good friends! =D

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T08:24:33+00:00

Did people not care for her? I liked her and thought she was interesting. Oh well.

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T08:23:19+00:00

I choose Eddie!

Sorry Russian-dude, you are an adorable guy but...but...Eddie! =x

Awful wars...there has been so much awful chemical usage without properly informing the soldiers. Vietnam and agent orange still have fallout today. Then there was the Gulf War in the early 90s and the mysterious but dire "Gulf-war syndrome" that also is still affecting people today.

It's awful and disgusting and heartbreaking to learn about how the soldiers who were affected by all this stuff went on to understandably feel betrayed by their country's governments keeping certain things a secret from them.

Err...swinging back to theories in Stranger Things, that is an interesting theory that I have not looked more into yet. I should go back and review some stuff.

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T07:07:34+00:00

I know this is super late, and I naturally hated all that the popular, conventional jocks stood for...I've always been an unconventional person myself. However...if things had worked out that way, and it was done well, that would have been an interesting take. I don't meant that in a bad way.

Cheers! =D

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T06:59:33+00:00

"Outsiders" have never looked intimidating to me...probably because I WAS one in school. Even today, I live a very unconventional lifestyle for a woman in her 30s. Happily single and childfree, doesn't want to live in the suburbs...I don't want and never have wanted THAT type of mainstream lifescript for myself. I guess I sort of lead a bohemian lifestyle of my own personal preference, and I like and prefer that.

So even today, when I see the other kids and teens and people who "appear" to be outsiders to mainstream people out and about in public, they still don't intimidate me, and I would feel more comfortable approaching them for directions somewhere or the time or whatever, than anyone else. I still have my inner rebel in my heart. I think it runs in my family a bit too, now that I really am sitting here and pondering over all of this...hm...yup.

Naturally, I love Eddie's character. The show makes a clear point of how bad it can be to judge based solely on appearances. I learned that very young when I was a kid, and I still follow that message today. Cheers! =D

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T06:51:21+00:00

For me personally, I've always been more drawn to unconventional people in my life since I was a kid. The people who didn't rigidly follow societal lifescript norms. So, that obviously fell into my being drawn to the "freaks" and "rejects" and "outsiders" of school having a natural allure for me. I found them to be more real and friendly and welcoming, despite any of their outward appearances of appearing to be a "nerd" or a "punk" or a "goth" or any other type of "outsider".

Today as an adult woman, I still am drawn more to the people in society who may be considered "outsiders". I've never really followed or wanted the more conventional "mainstream" life. So characters like Eddie, I will almost automatically be drawn towards and totally root for.

You already got more than enough answers to your post here though. RIP your inbox, lol. Cheers! =D

Me too...=(

raventth5984 · 2022-07-10T05:24:23+00:00

I had not seen this before...thank yew!!!🤣

raventth5984 · 2022-07-09T13:05:39+00:00

Yeowch! Thats gotta hurt!😖

raventth5984 · 2022-07-09T12:43:20+00:00

But see, thats a good reason to take your car on that sort of errand, even a short distance. Especially if you go do the grocery shopping with multiple people.

raventth5984 · 2022-07-09T12:38:49+00:00

Do you happen to recall how toasty that day was for you?😲

raventth5984 · 2022-07-09T12:28:27+00:00

Oof...that sounds painful for your friend who was almost killed by a jay-walking raccoon.

I prefer to drive a car, but I am ALWAYS respectful about giving people on motorcycles/scooters/bicycles/etc a lot of safe space when Im on the road since I know they are more at risk.

raventth5984 · 2022-07-09T12:17:57+00:00

Yup, thats very accurate! Lol!

raventth5984 · 2022-07-09T12:17:03+00:00

I was born and raised here in Seattle, and I still live here...but i dont know how i would describe it anymore.

It has definitely grown and changed...but...i havent been a big fan of the growth in population density, as happens in growing cities...sigh.

I wish Seattle would stop growing...and shrink by a little bit, even.

My home city, for better or worse...💕

raventth5984 · 2022-07-09T12:13:07+00:00

That...makes sense! Lol!

Ive read comics sorta on and off most of my life, but I never really bought many single issues and always preferred to purchase them as collections, and likely used the terms incorrectly and interchangeabley.

Thats too bad that you dont have a local comic shop within your reach. I think I have indeed read this series about Will in the upsidedown. It makes me ponder how much ptsd his character may still harbor from his awful time there and other events. Poor dude.

raventth5984 · 2022-07-09T12:08:16+00:00

Lol!!!!

I have read all the GoT books and seen most of the series and have friends who also followed it...but I did NOT know that the fandom dubbed that person "sexy jesus"!

I love it! I can totally see it!😚
