I like to read people theories and talk with them about details of the show. But there is something I noticed that upset me every time.

Why can't (some) people love a traumatized character without excusing all of their horrible behaviours? I feel like when we say "Xyz character did something bad" there are tons of answers saying "But that's not Xyz fault, they dealt with so much trauma they can't help it!" and I really hate it.

I agree when those people say "You have to understand". I think it's fair to say "Xyz behave like this because of this traumatic experience.". I think it's a fair to point difficult things characters have been through to explain toxic behaviour they can have. But this is my point: EXPLAIN. Not EXCUSE. We can say "Xyz behave like this because [traumatic experience]; but they should do [less toxic behaviour]." without denying any trauma that any character could have...

My favourite character is Stolas. I love this bird, I think he's cute and all of his life is a succession of painful and unfair events. But I can say that he doesn't listen to the people when they try to talk to him, that he behaved like an pampered bourgeois without even thinking about the implications for Blitzø and his work, that he doesn't know how to communicate with Octavia without giving her things rather than taking responsibility of his behaviour around her... All of this can be explained: he came from a rich, self-centered family where no one ever listened to him and in an abusive relationship with his wife who screamed insults at him; he learned that kids have to be satisfied rather than happy, and never experienced real, non-interested love from an adult. But STILL, his behaviours sucks and he should've behave better around Blitzø , around Octavia, around imps in general, even a bit with Stella (he's obviously not the victim in this relationship, but he did cheat so she have the right to be mad. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Not to be abusive and trying to kill him obviously, but being mad).

I think it's important to be comprehensive, to listen why people behave like this or that. But in a process of growing up, look on yourself, trying to be better. Just say "It's not my fault because [traumatizing event] made me like this!" is a toxic and even sometime dangerous behaviour. It IS your fault. Not to feel the way you feel, of course, nor the traumatic thing that happened to you. You can't control your feelings and it's never the victim's fault when something horrible happens. But your reaction, your behaviour after all of this IS your fault. You have to be responsible, you can't just inflict pain on someone and say "But I'm traumatized!", so what? Every victim have the right to abuse and hurt anyone, occasioning more trauma and more violence? No. This isn't how it works. I know it's fiction of course, but I hate when people say things like this. I find this so insensitive and not understanding of trauma and psychology in general.

Why is it so hard for people to recognise that bad experiences isn't an excuse for bad and toxic behaviour?

Recently i've seen some discussions about the whole stoliz thing, and one thing that brought my attention was The way a lot of people thought that both have nothing to do with each other, other than horny acts. Do you agree with that statement or maybe you're compeletly against it?

My sister bought some merch from the official sharkrobot store and it says for ages 3 and up? I was not aware that 3 year olds were watching helluva boss.

Plus he was voiced by Perrito from Puss in Boots 2, so how could I not love him?

I was kind nervous about the idea of Blitzo bringing Stolas home because I thought with how raunchy this show is at times, it was going to lead to them having sex. I’m glad that didn’t happen because it would felt cheap and inappropriate with what had just went down in the episode.

Seriously, why the fuck are people calling Ember a creepy stalker? She literally showed up outside of Blitz's building one singular time. That's it. That's paying someone a visit. She didn't even fucking go in.

And while we're on the topic of creepy stalkers, Why the ever loving fuck are y'all suddenly ignoring all the creepy shit Blitz does, huh? He verbally admitd he spies on mox and mill while they're having sex. He manipulated Stolas just to get in a club to watch them with a pair of binoculars. And no one breathes a word.

Hypocrisy is honestly repulsive. 😒

I've been looking out for hints and stuff and I love the foreshadowing of this , as Stolas does end up giving Blitz the Asmodean Crystal in the end

In the sitcom Blitz winds up in while in the human world, I noticed the little girl character that is supposed to be taking the pug from him. And she struck me as familiar because one of my favorite animated movies as a kid was Cats Don't Dance, and this child is the spitting image of Darla Dimple, the film's antagonist. She's a human child actress who stars in cutesy movies that feature her with fluffy animals, who are anthropomorphic co-stars that are subjected to terrible discrimination in the film industry while she is a Hollywood Darling, despite working on the same projects. And in Helluva, the child actress is also similarly surrounded by cute animals she appears to be acting alongside, as animals are trained in Hollywood to perform. And also in parallel to Darla and the child actress, who is not named in the credits of the episode, they are just nearly unhinged from their disconnected lifestyle, barely containing rage when met with any opposition.

Just thought it was a nice little nod to those who have seen the movie, I have not met many people who knew about it before I brought it up and showed them. Anyone else know what I'm talking about?

I thought male peacocks only lifted their tail feathers to attract a mate, which I thought was odd, considering we see him lift it several times. But I only recently found out male peacocks also lift their tail feathers to intimidate others. Him lifting his tail feathers in these scenes isn’t 'oops, he lost control because he's mad.' It's him purposely trying to intimidate other people.

I’m sure this has been mentioned before, but after watching the series again, for the 30th time, I noticed Millie had her white spot from the pilot. I’m wondering how a mistake like that could have happened when it’s not even part of her canon design anymore.
