thinking about eeaao again and the choice to translate movie star universes waymond's speech to "in another life, i would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you". because thats such an insane translation that doesn't capture the heart of his words. thats not what hes saying!!! hes saying "IF WE HAD another life, i still would have CHOSEN to do laundry and taxes with you". hes not being wistful for some hypothetical alternate universe, hes saying KNOWING ALL HE KNOWS, LIVING THE INCREDIBLE LIFE HE HAS LIVED, IF HE COULD DO IT AGAIN, HE WOULD CHOOSE THE LAUNDRY AND TAXES, BECAUSE HE'D HAVE HER

Propaganda under the cut.
Evelyn Wang:
Homophobic mother learns to accept her gay daughter by acquiring multiverse powers. Goes a bit over board with the nihilism at one point and ruins everyone's (everywhere all at once) lives but fixes it in the end. Makes her husband (the sweetest man in the world) sad multiple times in the movie because she feels her life would have been better without him but eventually realizes she hit the jackpot. A girlboss because of how much of a girlfailure she is ("Most people only have a few significant alternate life paths so close to them. But you, here, you're capable of anything because you're so bad at everything. You have so many goals you never finished, dreams you never followed. You're kiving your worst you.”)
Almalexia:
Killed her husband in order to become a god-queen (based), tried to kill everyone else when her powers started waning (cringe).
God-Queen, children’s book author, necromancer

Speaking of Everything Everywhere All At Once: I always think of how the Alpha!Wangs were under the impression that Jobu Tupaki had set out to destroy the whole multiverse, when she was really looking for an Evelyn who could understand her
Which is a lot like how some immigrant families catastrophize the moment their children become their own people. Some of us are made to feel that we will ruin EVERYTHING if we aren't straight/don't choose a "secure" career/don't anything that's supposed to align with our parents ideals. Many of us maintain relationships with our parents founded on unsaid and uncomfortable misunderstandings- and we yearn so badly for a situation where we don't have to reach out across the gap.
So it means EVERYTHING that it is Evelyn that fights to connect with her daughter, rather than Joy having to clamor for her mother's approval.

so. i rewatched everything everywhere all at once a few nights ago. and upon my rewatch i was struck by the scene where evelyn embraces nihilism across the multiverse—signing the divorce papers, revealing racaccoonie, turning away deirdre, breaking the window in the laundromat, though im not sure it was in that order—and how it shows that choosing to believe that nothing truly matters actively ruins your life and the lives around you. like, okay, whatever, nothing has any meaning and in the grand scheme of the universe, the consequences of your actions are never going to ripple out and affect the cosmos in a way that truly matters. but your choices don't have to have that kind of massive effect for them to matter at all. does the universe care that evelyn did all those things? not particularly. but look at waymond's face when she signs those papers. the way chad cried when she separated him from racaccoonie. deirde's reaction to the rejection of such a sincere display of affection. that's what matters. it's only when evelyn decides to go back and show that she cares about other people, by helping them or just being kind to them, that anyone's lives can be improved.
