im begging anyone who sees this post to prevent rapesexual, im begging you. no one will see this but if you do reblog to get the message out that these fuckers exist and dont deserve to exist
heres the flag so you can know who to fucking block, report and tell to fuck off
i dont want this to ruin the pride and help with self esteem of being lgbtq+ so a signal boost from larger accounts might be nice
happy Saturday heres what the Derry girls would do if they woke up in a saw trap
erin: not a chance of surviving. like shed think she could outsmart jigsaw easily but let's be honest she would bite it fucking instantly.
michelle: 'what the fuck is this? is this an orgy? is this how orgies start? listen, theres stuff I'm into, like theres a LOT of stuff I'm into, but this is-" trap goes off and she bites it
clare: panics and screams but does manage to escape somehow
james: not a chance of escaping that shit and he knows it
orla: completes the trap and absolutely loves every minute of it. goes home and tells her mammy about the absolutely class escape room shes found. they both do their best to get kidnapped by jigsaw at least once a fortnight. jigsaw lives in fear of them.
granda: "yer stupid prick of a husband has got me stuck in yon saw trap mary!"
One thing I never told my wife is that I had a fiancee before her. Itâs a long story, so buckle up.
It was the year after I graduated college. I was dating my girlfriend, Stephanie, for a couple years and things were getting serious. At the time, I had my roommate, Joey, but he was a Craigslist roommate. We didnât know each other very well. If you asked me how I knew him aside from Craigslist, the answer is I didnât. He wouldnât even tell me where he grew up.
Now, no shit, on the day I was going to propose, tragedy struck. I adorned our apartment with candles and even set up a nice glass display with framed pictures of me and Steph on top. Before Steph came in, Joey walked in and tripped. He actually shattered the glass display and got some in his face. Steph came in a few minutes later as I was on the phone with 911. Fortunately, Steph is a nurse, so she was able to patch him up as the three of us went to the hospital together.
Joey would recover, but he had some issues with glass on his face. He needed some cotton gauze inside his eye, which fortunately the doctors were able to save.
Clearly, I put off my proposal for the time being, but Steph and I agreed to get married. Our engagement was hush hush. Stephâs hours were wonky so she took care of Joey when I wasnât around. And I shouldâve seen the red flags, but I ignored them. Theyâd hang out together with and without me. Theyâd be in Joeyâs room and lock the door.
One day, I came home and all of Joeyâs stuff was gone. He moved out. Steph wrote a note. The note said, âWe fell in love and weâre leaving together. Donât try to find us.â
I didnât listen and I searched, but true to the note, I couldnât find them. Iâll never know what happened.
the recurring theme of the derry girls âmissingâ historical moments because theyâre busy doing shit that teenagers do is so relatable and I love it so much
i really need more television to exist in the same refrain as derry girls where it's not trying to tell some profound and heavily plotted out overarching story... rather its happy to just live in the brief moments of these character's lives and the comedy and tragedy that is part of their every day existence. i love 'we're not going anywhere in particular but you're damn sure going to enjoy the journey' type storytelling.
god. itâs just. itâs dreams by the cranberries. itâs the montage of them all voting yes. itâs orlaâs little smiley face in the box. itâs the live footage of the troubles. itâs erinâs speech. itâs the way that the last shot is of grandpa joe and anna jumping together out of the voting hall. itâs the sheer symbolism of youth and age being joyful and hopeful together. god.
the great thing about Derry girls is that the audience doesn't know shit
like, I'm sure if you're an Irish or English viewer you have a bit more context for some of the historical jokes and holidays and the like
but plot threads like James' mother, micelle's brother, and the fact that Erin's sister just sort of exists in the background are barely explained but they don't need to be
because the point of the show isn't to espouse upon every little mystery of Derry, each character's inner turmoil, the backstory of every extra- hell, we don't get much of a backstory for the main characters! I don't think we even meet Michelle's father- and we never see the inside of any of the main five's houses besides Erin
this show is slice of life in its purest form
we are dropped into the first day of school in Derry in season one, and we leave on the day of the vote in season 3, when the girls are thinking about going off to college or university, that's it. we're merely a viewer. these characters aren't performing a show for us, we're peeking into their lives.
