(i'm only on s6 so not sure what happens in s7 yet buuuuut)

the fact that Betty asked *Jughead* to go dig up the body under her mom's dining room is so indicative of all of the problems with Barchie.

literally the *episode* after Betty kills TBK and confesses how terrible she feels about what that says about her, Cheryl recommends killing Percival (a literal white supremacist demon) and Archie is like "that means we're evil, too." like! first of all, no, it literally doesn't. but second of all, Betty *just* told you she's worried that killing bad people under duress makes her an evil person.

the show itself explicitly addresses those issues so well, so many times (Cheryl's s4 'you're in love with the idea of Archie' speech; Betty and Agent Drake throughout s6). I'd be so sad if they named all of those fundamental incompatibilities only to have Betty end up with Archie. it feels like settling in such an uncomfortable way.

I'm forever a Bughead loyalist, but at this point I'm also, like... literally ANYONE but Archie.

[jabitha-endgame]

Oh context.

I actually think the show genuinely wanted to casually have a moment where Betty acknowledged an attraction to a woman, with no judgement from Veronica - and to not treat it like a big deal. But putting that line from Veronica in the trailer (completely out of context) just fully 180′ed that scene into harmful queerbait.

If you never saw that promo, the scene might have landed better instead of being massive queerbait. Including it in the promo really implied it would be a plot for Betty, but it was literally a throwaway line. They messed up so badly, but I actually think they thought they were being progressive when they wrote this moment for Betty. Riverdale really takes one step forward and 15 back 🤦

I cannot believe this scene happened and Betty and Veronica didn’t talk about their kiss PLZ

Did anyone else notice how when Charon came through the tunnel and Betty looked a little freaked out, Heather put her hand on Betty's back to comfort her? Y'all you can't make me loose trust in this woman, ok? Heather's my sweet, sapphic bestie and I love her.

#i love queer witches what can i say? #and that gesture was really sweet. in addition to how nicely she's been treating cheryl- prompting her to communicate and be open #riverdale #rivvie dale takes #betty cooper #heather riverdale #riverdale season six #riverdale spoilers #queue de la queue

Y/N walked into the kitchen and found his mother at the icebox, putting away the milk. She gives him a small glance. "I presume Polly's on her way back to New York City?"

"Yes. And I'm so jealous. She has... freedom, a career, a man she loves. That's more than any one of us here can say."

"Don't pick a fight with me, Y/N. I'm not in the mood. I'm not in the mood."

"So when are you going to stop?" Y/N asked her. Stop sabotaging our family?"

"Oh, is that what you think I'm doing?" Alice Cooper asked.

"Well, isn't it? You know what? You are a sad, lonely woman. And it is all your own fault. It's never been about Betty and her desire to have sex, or Polly's desire to be a burlesque dancer, or dad's secret love affair with Frank Andrews. Or with me wanting to be with Archie, no, it has always been about you. And I'm sick of giving you control over my life because you will ruin it."

"So what? You want to go? Fine. Go!" She tried to push past him, but he blocked her. "Oh, you should know that Archie and I are going to elope. And maybe I'll get a job where I can take off all my clothes. Then what will you tell your friends? Your son is queer and likes to be in the nude?"

The sharp smack to his face made Y/N gasp, but he wasn't surprised as he turned to his mother with a hand on his cheek. "I'm surprised it took you this long to do that." He walks out of the room.

Riverdale’s gay gene

Okay so, the riverdale gay gene theory goes something like this: just like the serial killer gene, sexuality is inherited in the riverdale universe, mainly from parents to children, but in some cases (like cheryl and toni) from the most prominent ancestor featured in the show so far (season 6). How does it work? idk, it’s riverdale but my theory is that 1bi/gay parent = 1bi child, and 2bi parents = 1gay or 1bi children.

The Cooper-Smith family: in season 6 Betty is confirmed bisexual and that implies that one of her prominent ancestors is gay, which could point to Bitsy Smith from 06x05. HOWEVER the storyline of Abigail-Poppy-Cheryl being immortal is not within the continuity of season 6, and Bitsy and Betty are not related (also confirmed by Madelaine Petsch). Therefore Betty gets her bisexuality from either her father or her mother, but most likely her mother Alice since she is also the one who gave the serial killer gene to her and Charles, who has the gay gene too. 

The Smith-Jones family: Charles gets either his gay gene from Alice or FP, but (see above) most likely is from Alice or both of them if we go by the theory that 2bi parents are needed to produce 1gay child.

The Jones family: by the 2bi=1gay formula theory, FP is bi (unconfirmed), which makes Jughead bi. Nevertheless, he would remain bi even if we don’t go with the gay formula and FP is not bi, since Gladys aka jugmom is most likely bi because if riverdale writers love something it is metatextuality and references to other media, and what is gina gershon (jugmom) known for? Bound (1996), where she plays a lesbian icon. By metatextuality rules Jugmom is, then, bisexual (also have you seen her? leather jacket and string choker? she is definitely fucking women).

The Andrews family: Mary is a bisexual icon that got straight and gay divorced, that makes Archie bisexual (+all the times he has kissed men??? and all that stuff that he has said that is straight out of the 2003 atlanta-based play archie's weird fantasy?? my boy is bisexual).

The Topaz-Fogarty family: now this confirmed the gay gene theory, since both Toni and Fangs are bisexuals who have a child, baby Anthony, who is confirmed queer (undisclosed whether he is gay or bisexual). And going back in time, Tony’s only on-screen relevant relative is Thomasina, who is also confirmed bisexual (or perhaps lesbian, it is never stated), creating a direct line of the gay gene inheritance from Thomasina to Baby Anthony.

The Blossom family: it’s not confirmed that queen of serving cunt and evil Penelope is queer, although it was implied, BUT it could also be Abigail, Cheryl’s most direct ancestor (aside from Nana Blossom), the one who gave her the witch gene and the lesbian gene.

The Keller family: is Tom bi? perhaps anything is possible in Riverdale, but most likely the evidence points to either his unnamed mom who never even lives with them (like Mary did with Archie’s dad, before she got a divorce to marry a woman). But it’s also possible that gay kevin is just spontaneously gay, which would explain the fact that his whole personality is being gay.

The Mason family: Marcus (Moose’s dad) is most likely gay, but got therapy conversion at the sister’s of quiet mercy, but he could be bisexual and only they only scared away the gay part, and passed on the gene to Moose, who is bisexual.

In conclusion, only in riverdale you get the serial killer gene and the gay gene.

[thew1tchinghours]

With riverdale detractors it’s always “I’m weird I’m a weirdo” this and “the epic highs and lows of high school football” that ok but have you considered that riverdale is a complex depiction of generational trauma and a reflection of the false promise of the American dream

Like Betty Cooper literally represents the social decay of suburban communities and the question of what responsibility we bear to atone for our parents sins and Archie Andrews is the exploitation of the working class and the predatory nature of military recruitment and Jughead Jones is the cycle of poverty and corruption of the criminal justice system and Veronica Lodge is the myth of ethically accumulated wealth and the dichotomy between familial and moral responsibility and Cheryl Blossom is religious hypocrisy and the morally dubious roots of old money and Kevin Keller is the marginalization of queer people in small traditional towns and how that interacts with white privilege and I could talk about this show and the rest of the characters for hours

#riverdale #what if I wrote a whole essay #that would be so silly
