and if I said that dennis’ insistence on being the breadwinner/provider despite literally being a pampered princess who dgaf about traditional roles of masculinity in every other regard (aside from ego) is because his mom only stayed with/chose frank for his wealth and dennis is highly aware that he’s difficult to love and unable to show his emotions openly so he has to be contributing something to the relationship materially in order to feel like he’s worth staying for… and mac grew up with parents who were extremely ambivalent to him and eachother so he has to overcompensate by proving his worth at every given moment and seeking praise/validation from people (and religious icons) who will never demonstrate the same amount of dedication to him but he has no idea how else to desperately keep himself close to those he loves other than by eroding himself into something they’ll approve of… dear god they’re both exactly what the other needs — someone who can’t and won’t leave them even if they try — and they don’t even see it…
anyway yeah something something about indulging a man in his delusions about playing god just so you can have the relationship with God youve always craved or whatever. theres some analysis or poignant post here somewhere after i rewatch the series a couple more times
the dennis/katya parallels are paralleling
dennis reynolds - nails, hair, hips, heels

WAIT ONE OF THEM WAS VOICED BY ARTEMIS ARE YOU KIDDING ME???????????
dare i say mac and dennis
sunny being such a dude show is so funny to me because i dont read it like that at all. that's every queer friend group ive ever met
i think it’s far funnier to believe sweet dee is named that ironically than some “it was unironic before she hit her head and changed her personality” bullshit
i love the idea of her being a little terror at 7 years old (i KNOW those twins were hell to babysit) and earning the nickname out of pure evilness
“what cute kids you have, that little blonde girl is so sweet!” meanwhile dee is setting a squirrel on fire in the backyard because dennis thought it was cute
sunny episode titled 'dennis fights gay marriage' and its dennis doing everything in his power to stop mac from marrying his boyfriend while insisting the entire time that it's for his own selfish self-preservation and not because he's in gay love with mac
i draw the worst most evil people in the world. 20 she/they (@jargirls)
