One of these days, I really need to start writing detailed analyses about every Taylor Swift song that reminds me of Gravity Falls characters. I have so many thoughts about them
Dear Reader is about the entire Pines family, especially Stan and Ford, their experiences, and the lessons they learned in Gravity Falls. I imagine them writing it all down in Journal 3.
Midnight Rain is about Bill and Ford if Bill felt and admitted regret for his actions

I am currently LOSING MY MIND about Suburban Legends because this is genuinely one of the most Billford songs I’ve ever heard

I appreciate Gravity Falls immensely - for many reasons, but particularly for the way it approaches weirdness. While Gravity Falls’ anomalies are often dangerous for the characters, the show and narrative still depict them as something to be observed and understood, not as manifestations of evil needing to be destroyed. Even the most vicious of the supernatural beings, Bill Cipher, is made a villain by the actions he’s taken - not by simply being different. In fact, Bill’s weird behavior is often played for fun by Bill himself, and he’s even shown as charismatic at times. When Ford enters in the second season, the message is made clearer yet. He may not always have been accepted by others, but Ford’s uniqueness, curiosity, and unabashed individuality are admirable traits. Out-of-the-box thinking, by the Mystery Shack rebels and ultimately by Stan and Ford, ends up being what saves the world. Gravity Falls celebrates weirdness from beginning to end, summed up by some of the last words of Journal 3 -
“Stay curious, stay weird, stay kind, and don’t ever let anyone tell you you aren’t smart or brave or worthy enough.”
Trick or treat!
Hi, friend! You’re the first visitor I’ve had! Let’s see what I can offer you…
I have a lot of types of M&Ms, this book, and…
…this candy. It seems a bit unusual, but looks really sweet. You can pick any 2 of these! :)
As the old Gravity Falls legend goes…
