i have only words to play with

the thing that gets me about about barbie is that barbie land wasn’t even purposefully a matriarchy, barbie land came about because of the way little girls were playing with their barbies, it wasn’t created by mattel it was created by the people using the toys, so the fact that the barbies ignored the ken’s and had girls night every night wasn’t because they had some bias against him, it was just an accurate depiction of how kids play with barbies. I had some ken dolls as a child and they were essential to the plot in the sense that of course my barbie has a boyfriend because that represented the world i saw around me, but also he didn’t have any purpose in my dream world because i was only interested in what the girls were doing because they represented me and how i wanted to be, I wanted girls night every night I wanted the girls to be president and austronauts and not because of some inherent feminist idea but because I was a girl and I wasn’t thinking about boys, ken was an accessory. this movie wasn’t made to change the world but it showed a different perspective than what we usually see which I thought was fun. Men don’t have to be the centre of all our stories and its not even because we hate them, sometimes we’re just not thinking about them

The Barbie Movie is the movie of all time for many reasons, but the core message being "Perfoming gender roles hurts everyone, you should be your authentic self no matter what society says" really knocked it out of the park

The trick is to do it without shame. Literally anything could be cool if you just did it shamelessly

dark green is a nice color. underrated

THEY ARE ETERNALLY 17 BECAUSE JUGHEAD'S NARRATION WILL NEVER ACTUALLY LET THEM GO! HE LET THEM HAVE THEIR AGENCY AND THEIR FREEDOM AND THEIR HAPPINESS AND THEN THE MOMENT THEY DIED, THEY ENDED UP BACK INSIDE OF HIS NARRATIVE AND ARE NOW TRAPPED THERE FOREVER!

is angel Jughead also dead bunker Jughead from Rivervale who never stopped loving Betty because these are the thoughts I have while trying to digest that insane end to an insane show

I think he’s real Jughead, fully in love with Tabi and the Jug (and everybody else, for that matter) are cardboard fantasy peeps

Okay I thought this could be a possibility as well! That this angel iteration of Jughead isn’t able to reveal a ton of personal info about himself and whatnot because he’s in a completely different sweet hereafter with Tab and he’s not the 1950s one (see: his beanie). Could also explain her (either modern or 1950s) absence in Pop’s at the end.

wait hold on so I just realized it’s beanie jug (modern Jug?) who was her angel?! WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

The best thing about Riverdale is that out of their massive revolving cast of main characters Toni, Tabitha and Betty are like the only residents of Riverdale with a brain cell however Toni shares hers with sapphic yearning for the most insane person in town, Tabitha shares hers with a crush on a grown man named Jughead and Betty shares hers with the serial killer gene which renders them incapacitated and unable to use their one brain cells the majority of the time
