some people are dodging the point so hard. like yes shaunas the "bad guy", shes the one who wants people dead (and maybe lottie too ig) but this story has always been about why its even possible for that to matter. shes literally just one person so why dont they all just refuse to participate? nat does, repeatedly, but no one stands with her so lottie and shauna get what they want. we saw that shauna literally backed down when tai stood up to her, she isnt some unstoppable force.

this is and has always been about passive violence. how being silent in the face of violence, not actively standing up and saying "No" is complicity. tai and van rigging the cards so it will be the "outsider" who gets hunted is complicity. it is commentary on how we allow "fringe" members of our communities to be cast out, othered, hunted, because we're too afraid for ourselves to stand in solidarity with them. but then in the end when the violence comes for you or your friend or your family theres no one left to stand with you because you abandoned those "others" who could have stood with you. shauna and lottie only have the power that the girls give them by being passively complicit in a similar way to how shauna was complicit in tai's plan for allie in the pilot. and so it goes again and again. they all ostracised jackie, watched javi drown, let shauna intimidate and lottie lead them to vote against ben. this show is literally inspired by twin peaks, a story in which an entire town is found to be complict in the murder of a girl they all snubbed every possible opportunity to save. the point is not that shauna is the villian but rather that she is only able to hurt people because the others have created an environment that indulges her worst impulses.

i wonder what’s gonna happen to those hikers with shauna “stab your problems” shipman in charge

heckling @yourlocalsluttymanenjoyer is always the best part of my day

guilt? or righteousness?

betrayal? or regret?

buncha doodles of shaunahat, i luv them

I can't with people being like "oh, I can't stand the Yellowjackets after this", "How do people still like Lottie after she killed a man like that?" Like why are you acting like this show didn't start with a terrified girl/woman dying after falling into a pit when she was running for her life because she was being hunted down by people with masks that were shown to take her body, butcher her, cook her and eat her in some sort of ritual and those same people were confirmed to be the girls. Oh wow they're doing fucked up shit. Well no shit didn't you see the show? This is the Fucked Up Woman™ factory, they're all terrible and yet still complex and still likeable that's why I like the show. "Oh man she killed a dude. Oh man this other one convinced the others to kill a dude!" And they looked good doing it! What are you protestant

melissa: i'm kind of crushing on someone, but i'm worried about telling you who it is, because you're not going to like it.

gen: just rip the band-aid off.

melissa: it's shauna.

gen: put the bandaid back on.

I imagine some trans person or enby changing their name like.

I can't decide whether it's funnier to think Travis was just taking a shot in the dark and hit the target with the sleepover make outs or if Jackie's genuinely whispering in his ear like "yeah. I mean I knew she was gay because we used to kiss like... all the time. Like, with tongue and everything. Can't believe she went for Melissa, though. Nat's right there. Oh, shit. Sorry Travis."

One thing about Shauna and her beef with Mari is that she wants to be respected and worshipped and if she can't have that she want people to fear her. And Mari never did either. Mari never worshipped her nor felt like she had to walk around eggshells around Shauna like everyone else did. She didn't pity her. And she wasn't scared of her. Which is kind of stupid at times, but also really telling. The others saw Shauna as if she was the Terminator, but Mari always saw her as a pathetic teenage girl with a lot of insecurities. Which is how Shauna feels deep down and it drove her mad, having someone whose very presence reminded her of those insecurities. And she becomes leader and and Mari still wasn't afraid of her! She becomes Nat's biggest supporter instead! Nope, she never showed her fear toward Shauna. Not even when she was hunted. She was afraid of dying. Not of Shauna. Mari didn't even give Shauna the pleasure of looking her in the eye when she put the necklace on her. Shauna never had the treat of seeing fear in Mari's eyes. Instead Mari tried to take her out with a knife and then told Shauna off one last time, telling her she deserves everything (bad) that's gonna happen to her.

No respect. No fear. Ever. The only time Shauna could have any control over Mari was after Mari was dead. Which says a lot about Mari as a person.
