Hey @netflix this show is too good for you to just cancel like this
Shag and Daph. Friends vibing đđ
Letâs go guys. We can do this. Iâm a ball of anxiety and nerves, but I believe in us. We just need to keep trucking, keep trying, keep being noticed.
Jayden says he is so grateful for our outpouring of love AND that he âwas the only oneâ of the cast and crew who called that we were going to RIOT over this cancellation!
He said ânah my people my people are gonna be loudâ AND WE ARE
Letâs show them all!
SAVE DEAD BOY DETECTIVES
(I don't tend to ask people to reblog things, but please reblog this instead of liking it. please SPREAD this knowledge. we want them to be bombarded by requests, and that only happens if people know this link exists. It worked for the Sense8 finale, we need it to work now)
if i had a penny for every time netflix canceled yet another amazing show because it didnât blow up into a worldwide phenomenon just to make another amazing show that theyâll drop after one season because it also didnât blow up into a worldwide phenomenon until they eventually run the service into the ground, iâd have like 45 pennies by now
well at least now i can say with absolute certainty that netflix hates two things, and thatâs ghosts and gay people
Idc if itâs wishful thinking, I want my show back. So yeah, go stream it, enjoy the gay Agatha Christie show with a romantic subplot.
I know thatâs itâs really hard to be happy right now but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE donât leave the fandom. We have made such an impact in FOUR MONTHS and Netflix will see that they made the wrong decision. This is an awesome fandom and I want us to keep going strong!! We are amazing and I want everyone to know that.
For the ones unaware, an on-duty female doctor was brutally raped and murdered on the night of August 9th in India. There have been waves of mass protests all over the country regarding this issue.
The doctor, a junior resident working a 36 hours shift was resting in the hospital's seminar hall when she was subjected to this gruesome torment. Her body was found in an incomprehensible state half-naked in the same seminar hall the next morning.
I urge you to stand by truth. This is something no woman should face, after multiple years of studying and training, we do not enter this field to be subjected to inhumane treatment.
I was born to live.
I was born to dream.
I was born to achieve.
Any other human deserves the same chance at life that you and I do.
Don't let your silence become an enabling factor for inhumanity.
I need more fanfics of Orbwin and Chorb, please!
My beloved ship. My favorite name for them is Chorbwin
I love every time people talk about them going into orb form and the other carrying them around.
I love you Orbwin and Chorb
And we are correct.
@obituaryobliterater and I deliberated long and hard about this
a scooby-doo origin story where Daphne, Fred, Velma, and Shaggy are all serving detention together and none of them (save for maybe Fred and Daphne) have ever really talked before, but they talk in detention. they have fun, they're bonding, it's a real Breakfast Club situation, and as detention ends they're walking home and they see a dog digging through the garbage of a local restaurant
he's big, but he seems sweet and he's obviously hungry, so the gang approaches him to see if he has a collar. Shaggy manages to get to him first, and the dog immediately takes to him, giving him a big dog kiss and cuddling up to him, but the dog seems to like all of them
upon finding he doesn't have a collar, Shaggy, scratching behind his ears, rhetorically asks, "What's your name, buddy?"
and the dog answers, "Scooby-Dooby-Doo!"
after a minute of freaking the FUCK out and asking each other "y'all heard that, right?" the kids decide to take the dog (who they immediately start calling Scooby-Doo, Scoob, or Scooby for short) home, and find that not only can the dog talk, he displays human-level intelligence and is easily frightened. when they ask where he came from, he doesn't seem to know, but when they walk past an old, abandoned shopping complex on the edge of town, he completely freaks out...and there are weird noises coming from that complex at night....and some suspicious sightings....
the first mystery they investigate together is the mystery of what in God's name is going on here
The Scooby gang are friends. The Scooby gang are BEST FRIENDS. THEY ARE BEST FRIENDS AND THEY LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH. THEY TRAVEL AROUND SOLVING MYSTERIES FOR AS LONG AS THEY CAN BECAUSE THEY HAVE A PASSION FOR IT AND BECAUSE IT MEANS THEY GET TO SPEND TIME TOGETHER WITH EACH OTHER. THEY ARE BEST FRIENDS.
They donât hate each other. Maybe they get annoyed and cause theyâre together all the time it might get a bit much sometimes but at the end of the day, they really deeply care about each other. They live out of a van most of the time and are on the road constantly out of CHOICE. TOGETHER. for crying out loud.
They are four teenagers and a Great Dane. Theyâre a family.
I hc there's a misconception about Mystery, Inc., and it's that Fred and Velma, being the planners and "braincell holders" of the gang, cannot leave Daphne and Shaggy alone together unattended. In reality, it's actually Daphne and Shaggy that can't leave Fred and Velma unattended. They maximize their troublemaking potential and then go apeshit ham from there.
This, and like a different post said, if you want to gear toward a more adult audience, just add in day to day things. Like shaggy smoking or cooking for the gang, Velma, Daphne, and Fred working on traps, playing fetch with Scooby, how the take care of themselves on the road, what they do for school or if they collect payment. Personally Iâm ride or die Poly Gang (minus Scooby obviously) but regardless fleshing out the relationships between characters would be wonderful. I think theyâve given Velma a holyer than thou complex, made Daphne boy obsessed and Fred girl obsessed, and made shaggy and Scooby the same character of just eating. There are so many ways to make the characters interesting.
Velma in the original show, did actually believe there could be real ghosts, while also trying to prove it was a person. Daphne now has so much lore that new iterations of the series donât pull on. Fred is like a true mom friend who cares sunscreen and protein bars in his fanny pack and listens to all suggestions making for a collaborative effort. Shaggy is, as said above, resourceful and funny, but not the butt of the joke, and Scooby has his own personality that I agree with op about.
Like damn, every iteration keeps going down hill and is sucks.
Anyone looking to make a proper Scooby-Doo adaptation please remember:
Fred is the charismatic face of the group and the strategizer. Later adaptations made him a massive himbo who chugs respect for women juice and those have become necessary parts of his character.
Shaggy is cowardly but also incredibly resourceful; let us not forget his skill at ventriloquism. Make Shaggy the skill monkey, who every episode mentions some weird skill he has that's previously unmentioned; that'd be an amazing running gag. Also, bring back the dry humor Casey Kasem injected into the og character.
Scooby is Shaggy's best friend, the other half to his two-man comedy routine. Independently of Shaggy, Scooby is also prone to be a bit mischievous and just kind of a little scamp. Play up both of those things.
Velma is the smart nerdy one, who also had a really dry sense of humor. I don't know why she was turned into the "I'm surrounded by idiots" character because, while as I stated, she always had a dry sense of humor, she was never mean to her friends and never talked down to them, or anyone else. Bring back the chipper Velma from like Witch's Ghost or Zombie Island. Let Velma be a little cutie pie. Also keep her as a lebian
Daphne was... originally really just "The Girly One" but later adaptations have fleshed her out, like making her essentially the muscle of the group, which is just amazing and should continue. She's also been cast as the oddly resourceful one. Shaggy is the skill monkey, Daphne is the one who has a tool for literally any job. Human Swiss Army Knife, which again, would be an amazing running gag.
Have Shaggy and Daphne bounce off-the-wall ideas for a plan together, Fred steps in to ground them, while still using their ideas, and incorporating Velma's theories about the case.

A Scooby-Doo adaptation should not be difficult, and must be done with love.
you know what I would love??
for @netflix to renew Dead Boy Detectives
ok kids repeat after me
vinegar and bleach makes chlorine gas, which is highly toxic
ammonia and bleach makes chloramine, which is highly toxic
rubbing alcohol and bleach makes chloroform, which is highly toxic
hydrogen peroxide and vinegar makes peracetic/peroxyacetic acid, which can be highly corrosive
be careful about your cleaning products and dont get yourself injured or potentially killed ok
I wish I was less obsessed with this but like I need 1000+ fanfics and art pieces.

i need to steal charles rowlandâs gender like i need air to breathe. not even joking. i need it so bad.
"Don't use Libby because it costs libraries too much, pirate instead" is such a weird, anti-patron, anti-author take that somehow manages to also be anti-library, in my professional librarian-ass opinion.
It's well documented that pirating books negatively affects authors directly* in a way that pirating movies or TV shows doesn't affect actors or writers, so I will likely always be anti-book piracy unless there's absolutely, positively no other option (i.e. the book simply doesn't exist outside of online archives at all, or in a particular language).
Also, yeah, Libby and Hoopla licenses are really expensive, but libraries buy them SO THAT PATRONS CAN USE THEM. If you're gonna be pissed at anybody about this shitty state of affairs, be pissed at publishing companies and continue to use Libby or Hoopla at your library so we can continue to justify having it to our funding bodies.
One of the best ways to support your library having services you like is to USE THOSE SERVICES. Yes, even if they are expensive.

I just saw that Jayden has Work Song by Hozier on his playlist for Charles, along with Fair my Amazing Devil and There Is A Light That Never Goes Out by the Smiths, and I just know that man is currently begging every Netflix executive and Dead Boy Detectives writer to let him kiss George on the mouth in the next season and I love him so much
