Just thinking about how Shelby Corcoran took one look at a 17-yr old with pink hair and was immediately like..."you are not safe to be around children", but then welcomed the guy with a mohawk and a LITERAL CRIMINAL RECORD who she first met while he was slashing her students' tires, and was like "You're fine though".
Ah Shelby Corcoran hate squad, good good.
Honestly that just points to her hypocrisy. Shelby does what Shelby likes with little to no regard for the people around her. Especially not teenagers, whom she's making relive some serious trauma.
Tbf the way Glee as a whole uses Quinn's pink hair as shorthand for "she's off the rails" even though that should be the least of anyone's worries when she's dating a 40-year-old (apparently??) is bonkers. Funny thing is Quinn only gets truly deranged and starts reading up on Satanic rituals to frame Shelby after she goes blonde again. But anyway, yeah, good point.
Shelby sees a teenage girl clearly spiraling and crying out for help, decides to put her on another roller coaster and emotionally blackmails her, only furthering that spiral. God forbid she gets Quinn some real help or, arguably better, stays out of her life altogether. But Shelby also sees a teenage boy who might also be troubled in different ways, more violent ways but she lowkey wants to jump his bones so it's cool he's allowed in her kid's life. That's not anything against Puck, he just, you know, has a bad track record and a bad rep he's all too eager to lean into. Meanwhile Quinn's having mental breakdowns for breakfast but she's bad news and bad news only because she has pink hair. I mean, to be fair, in her mental state I would also probably not be comfortable with having Quinn around my toddler but what Shelby does with the blackmail and all is just vile.
I think Shelby just loves having that power over these two teens, honestly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ And not to turn this into a more serious conversation than it needs to be, but I do 100% believe that was it. Because I acknowledge she's Beth's mother but she didn't have to come back to Lima and traumatize not one, not two, but three teens (including Rachel) by doing so. And she did for, what? The money of the Motta's? And then messing with the kids was just a bonus.

For the ask game: Which Glee character had the absolute Worst Time throughout the show? In other words, who suffered the most?
Shelby! Poor woman, first she needs to manipulate her student into toying with her daughters feelings in order to meet her, and then her daughter isn’t the perfect daughter she wanted in the first place! Then after adopting her daughters bully’s baby, she moved back and has to deal with a horrible disrespectful Quinn, who’s clearly just horrible and not needing serious help, then she’s manipulated into sleeping with her student! Poor Shelby, she deserves better 😔

“Just because you take out your nose ring and dye your hair blonde again, it doesn’t make you any less lost.”
Then fvcking help her, Shelby! You can see she’s struggling, and as the adult—the adult who has Quinn’s biological child who you dangled in front of her like a carrot on a stick—you need to get her help.

hey. would’ve should’ve could’ve, Puck x Shelby. Thoughts?
Hmmm yes and no
Yes in the sense that she's taking advantage of him, if she hadn't encouraged him and lead him on then he might have not got caught up in all of it, he was just a teenager and she's his teacher and the adoptive mother of his child and she gets into his head and then just. leaves. And those are all things that are really reflected in the song.
But on the other hand, this isn't the first time he's gone through something like this. I think this is the worst case of it, because she has so much power over him and he really thinks he has a chance of a relationship and a life with her and she lets him think that, but it's not even close to the first time a grown woman in a position of power has taken advantage of him. He thinks he's hot shit for sleeping with all the women whose poos he cleans but they are employing him and they are adults and he is a teenager. I think it makes perfect sense that he thinks this thing with Shelby is appropriate and good. And obviously it's her fault for taking advantage of that, he's vulnerable and needed her to be the adult in this situation, but because of all this history I think the song doesn't quite fit.
"If you never touched me, I would've gone along with the righteous"
"If I'd only played it safe"
"God rest my soul, I miss who I used to be"
These lyrics don't really fit in my opinion, because he was already kinda fucked up from so much shit before Shelby, it was too late for "playing it safe," maybe he misses who he used to be but it wasn't before Shelby it was before everything.
So I guess I think it does fit Puck, and it fits Puck and Shelby, but it's not just Puck and Shelby. It's him and Shelby and the who knows how many other women have taken advantaged of a kid who really just needed someone to look out for him.

I’m rewhatching glee (season 1) and I really really really hate how Shelby talk about Rachel like if she was a baby she gave on adoption because, girl you were a subrogate (Rachel told us herself that her dads used a subrogate) you knew once you gave birth that baby wasn’t going home with you.
And she wants to meet her, which is not really a problem, but once Rachel is happy to have her in her life, Shelby is like ok you know what you are to old I want a baby so I’m going to adopt your classmates child. And left her.

the fact that quinn tries to steal a baby is already wild. but what i only just realized is that is basically a more intense repeat of a s1 storyline.
both quinn and shelby vigorously pursue their birth daughter when they've hit rock bottom; both of them do this to make themselves feel better and not with many thoughts about what this means for their daughter; both of them go behind the child's actual parents' back and don't care much about the law as they do it.
the main difference is that shelby's actions aren't really judged by the narrative all that much, where quinn is fully seen as a villain during this arc. that's not to say quinn wasn't in the wrong here, because she definitely was.
but there's just something so funny to me in the way that these two pretty similar storylines happen, except the framing is very different. and on top of that, the main person to call quinn out on her actions, is shelby, who did a pretty similar thing two years prior and fully got away with it.

wow it’s almost as if quinn needed a guiding hand and some love and acceptance and maybe if you had just let her be a part of beth’s life from the get-go and not slept with beth’s bio dad (WHOS STILL IN HIGH SCHOOL) then maybe quinn would’ve been more inclined to turn things around

Out of all the reasons to hate Shelby, standing by and doing nothing as Santana was outed, blackmailed and harassed isn't even in the top 3
But it certainly is a reason to hate her

glee for the tv show ask
Why thanks dearest internet friend ❤️❤️❤️
favorite male character: A tie between Artie/Mr Gelmet. Right now I’d say Blaine, but that depends on the day. I also love Jake, Jesse, and Roderick.
favorite female character: Tina Cohen Chang. Like I love her. Seriously. She’s the best. I cannot stress this enough. I love her so much. Runner ups are Quinn, Marley, and Kitty.
least favorite character: Finn. Not gonna elaborate because I want to be ✨positive✨ but not a fan.
prettiest character: Britt and Jake
funniest character: I don’t have one but Azimio cracks me up.
favorite season: S4!
favorite episode: Previously Unaired Christmas said Pezberry rights and that by default makes it the best.
favorite romantic ship: Pezberry obviously 😌. Canon-wise, I love Brittana and Tartie equally (the last one deserves more love especially).
favorite family ship: The Lopierces own my heart ❤️
favorite friend ship: Marliquetina!
worst ship: Finntana should get hit by a car and throw into a volcano 🤢 Other contenders are Shelpuck, Puckitty, and Bram (not as bad as the other two but pisses me off 😤)

🫐🎀🛼
Oh shit you're asking the hard questions aren't you.
🫐: character you think is overrated
You know, there are certainly character I don't really care about as much as a lot of others tend to, but I don't know that I'd call them "overrated" because I see the appeal. Like Quinn, for example; I'm not really a Quinn fan personally, but a lot of people LOVE her, and I can understand why, so I wouldn't call her overrated. Mostly I think some characters are UNDERrated, but alas that's not the question.
Can I say Shelby? I don't think she's generally especially liked but I think we should hate her more tbh LMAO. Oh actually maybe April? I feel like she's pretty well enjoyed but honestly I kinda can't stand her and I don't see the appeal at all (aside from Kristin Chenoweth who I also don't care about... sorry...)
🎀: favourite sectionals
Gotta be ABC/Control/Man in the Mirror. We also get The Troubletones AND Buenos Aires that episode, so what's not to love?
🛼: favourite regionals
You know I don't really love any of the regionals setlist actually. If I had to pick it might be Get It Right/Loser Like Me, with a special mention for the Warblers lineup of Stand/Glad You Came.

i hate the way quinn never gets any closure when it comes to her relationship with beth
like season 3 makes it abundantly clear that quinn is not over that she had to give her child up (which really isn’t surprising because she was 16 and didn’t have any kind of help from a trusted adult during or after the pregnancy)
and after she has spent an entire year trying to move on shelby just randomly appears back in town with beth and constantly dangles the possibility that she could see beth above quinn’s head just to ultimately always refuse to let quinn have any contact to her
and not only that at the same time shelby allows puck to see beth. meanwhile quinn is trying so hard to get to see her while being torn down by all the adults in her life who are supposed to help her
and once shelby leaves again (without giving quinn any chance to say goodbye to beth of course) quinn obviously hasn’t moved from what happened
because now she only has pictures of beth left that she keeps in her locker where she can constantly see them. she even has made beth say hi mommy to her in one of the pictures
like this girl is still so hung up on what happened (with good reason) and it’s literally never addressed again
i just hate how quinns life got complete turned over just because shelby decided to return to lima and directly initiate contact with quinn. shelby literally ruined all the progress quinn made in season 2 by bringing beth back into her life even though she really should have known better than that
