My favorite Mike Wheeler look is the “Shit, I can’t loose him again” look
And this one’s called “Shit, I just lost him, didn’t I?”
Sure, Will is a sensitive kid and the sweetest boy but he's also very
I want Will to complete his journey down the Ben Pincus pipeline… mild mannered gay previously dismissed by his friends and bullied gets constantly hunted by monsters until he becomes a survivalist king and unhinged pyromaniac
I need to remind y’all that this actually happened
HE'S GAY. VERY GAY, AND PROBABLY NON-BINARY TOO. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT GWEN
It always got me how, right from the beginning, Will is depicted as doing exactly the right thing. The thing that you would usually be yelling at the screen for the characters to do when they're being stupid:
He's honest, he abandons his bike and runs, he locks the door and puts the chain on, he immediately yells for his mom and Jonathan, he phones 911, and when all else fails, at the age of fucking twelve, he grabs a gun to defend himself. And despite all that, he never stood a chance. We're supposed to root for him. It makes it that much more satisfying when he's saved in the end.
Similarly, in s4 Will is shown to do everything right to help his sister and his best friend. He supports El at school, he argues with her about being honest with her boyfriend, he fights to see her when she gets arrested, spends an entire season looking for her while acting as their relationship counsellor, and when all else fails, he gives his love confession that he'd been holding in for years as hers, because he cares more about seeing them happy than himself. Will resigns himself to suffering in silence for the sake of the people he loves, he thinks he never stood a chance because he feels like he's alone, he feels like a mistake and WE ARE MEANT TO ROOT FOR HIM.
All in all, I think this is just another beautiful way they've set up byler endgame. That mirrored catharsis of Will doing the right thing, only to go through so much undeserved pain, before he can finally live and get what he deserves, will be so very worth it and will make for a great main character arc :')
There are Russian citizens who understand that Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is wrong, and they are showing up & showing out.

For all the tankies and misguided “leftists” who somehow think that backing Putin is the way to show how “pure” their “communism” is—THIS is how you do it. THIS is how you rise up. These Russian protesters aren’t talking shit, while hiding behind a keyboard, in the safety of a country that’s safely not being invaded. These Russian citizens are openly protesting Putin’s war and their own government. They are putting it all on the line and literally risking everything to protest Putin’s imperialism. They are showing solidarity with the people of Ukraine.
Bravo. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 Bravo. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
