OH MY GOD I SWEAR I DIDN'T PUT THE OOO A GHOST IS ON MY TUMBLR

I've seen a lot of discourse in recent weeks about how evan hansen is actually a monster, so here's my take:

regardless of their consequences, evan's actions were not malicious prior to the formation of the connor project.

his initial motivators are guilt (feeling responsible for tipping connor over the edge), embarrassment (over having to admit that he name-dropped his crush in his letter), and bad advice (from jared).

at first, he just wants to console the murphys in their grief, and lets them believe he was friends with connor to comfort them.

however, disappear acts as a turning point in the story, when evan's motives become murky. he decides he likes the attention he's been receiving as a result of his "friendship" with connor, and the song openly states that the project is founded on evan's unwillingness to fade back into obscurity.

upon closer analysis this song becomes rather sinister when you realise that when evan sings "no one deserves to be forgotten", he's not singing about connor, but about himself. (incidentally, I think that's largely the reason the song was cut for the movie, in a vain attempt to paint evan more positively.)

after that, the focus shifts much more to evan and his actions in the charity fraud fundraising campaign, and connor, ironically, fades into the background until evan eventually gets cold feet.

evan's actions were unquestionably reprehensible, and dubiously forgivable. but they were not initially malicious.

Let’s acknowledge how good they both look in this scene. They served major looks at the dance👏🏼

LEVIHAN Fanart

(she for Hange)

“Let’s go Home, Hange”

I just hope that they will go back to Odiha someday to get some sand or whatever...

Hange may not has a grave and the only thing her left was Levi’s scar just hurt me so bad... But Levi is her home, he will go and bring her back home....

(Please don’t leave Hange alone in Odiha....😭😭)

Magnus is the fruity and Alex is the edge. Don't fight me cuz I know you can't

It’s affection, always / you’re gonna see it someday

🌟 A Cry for Help: My Family’s Struggle to Survive in Gaza 🌟

Hello, my name is Areej Kassab. I’m a 27-year-old English teacher and writer from Gaza, and I’m reaching out to you with a heavy heart and a desperate plea for support. My family and I are enduring unimaginable hardships as relentless bombings devastate our home and our dreams.

We are a family of 15—10 adults and 5 children. Every day is a battle for survival. Food is scarce, humanitarian aid is not reaching us, and my little nieces and nephews go to bed hungry. Among them is my sister, who is deaf, and another sister who has a newborn baby. They, too, are suffering in this crisis, and I’m doing everything I can to protect and provide for them.

💔 A Life in Ruins The war has robbed us of everything: safety, peace, and even the hope of a future here. My family’s needs are basic yet critical—food, clean water, diapers for the babies, gas for cooking, and other essentials to make it through each day.

With rising prices and limited access to necessities, we are struggling to provide even the most basic items. My sister’s home has been destroyed, and we are working together to ensure everyone has shelter, food, and warmth.

✨ My Plea for Your Support ✨ I’m a writer, and I’ve been documenting the harsh realities faced by my community under siege. But words can only do so much. We need action, and we need help. Your kindness can save us.

🙏 How You Can Help

Donate: Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us closer to securing the essentials we desperately need.

Share Our Story: If you can’t donate, please share this post to help us reach others who can.

Your support will help provide food for the children, clean water for my family, and basic supplies to help us survive this unimaginable crisis.
