Grouchy Scarf Troll

Employee: How about this one?

Psychic: That shirt is too small

Employee: You didn't even try it on

what i mean: there are no less than 14 women protagonists who all have agency and are narrators of their own stories and none of them exist as male wish fulfillment or as a side kick to a male character and they all have different personalities and purposes and their strengths and weaknesses are presented without making some statement about women being better or less than men but also they use their femininity in extremely powerful ways which demonstrates that women are different than men but no less valuable to the story and they are put on equal playing field with the men in the movie and are not sexualized or demeaned despite the fact that five of them are escaping sex slavery and the sexual violence against them is never shown and one of the messages of the movie is that even these women in positions of 'privilege' are still oppressed and are victims of male violence and entitlement which reminds me that another message of the movie is the destructive nature of toxic masculinity and even the good guys in the movie are not praised or unnecessarily affirmed by the women when they do good things but instead there is a sort of mutual trust and friendship built that is way more realistic and powerful and basically it passes every test associated with how women are treated in movies and also it's just a really damn good movie with amazing visuals and insane amounts of world building and beautiful cinematography and real messages about our world

that’s right, me

so even though i’ve been on a semi-hiatus from using tumblr for the past couple of months

in order to preserve my screen for as long as possible, i’m going to try to cut down on non-essential phone usage, and since 99% of my tumblr use is on mobile, i’ll probably just, not be around much at all anymore for a while, at least until i get something figured out (or unless something important enough happens that i can be coaxed to actively use tumblr on the computer)

so yeah, bye guys see ya later
