#also I like Emma Watson

[chemicalarospec]

y'all remember how Emma Watson said she was "self-partnered" in like, 2017, and everybody had an opinion on it. She got mocked so much. In contrast, Miley Cyrus won a Grammy this month for a song that's essentially about being self-partnered. I mean, I still know people who mock others for doing traditionally couples-exclusive things for/with themself, but there clearly has been some improvement in society overall and that's awesome to realize.

Shoutout to people who are autoromantic and people who are self-partnered or solo/autogamous for any other reason, especially those who are aro, this Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week! And a related shoutout to those who are non-partnering, nonamorous, choosing to be single, and anyone else rejecting the societal expectation to partnered! <2

#not sure if i like the bolding make unbold it all but the paragraphs seem weirdly dense to me #asaw 2024 #aromantic #autoromantic #self-partnered #non partnering #nonamorous #arospec #aromantic spectrum #emma watson #miley cyrus #relationships #I said this #wait i thought the original <2 post mentioned that it's also like. less than 2 people not a couple #where did i hear that that's what made me really start liking <2 #aro

Honestly I think it would do us all well to go back to kinda cringy feminism again for a little bit idk cause I think maybe for some people the discourse somehow circled back around to supporting sexism just rebranded or whatever so its more aesthetic

#personal #instead of progressing the discourse into idk more inclusion of women of color and trans women #it went in the direction of like glorifying women being stupid and romanticizing beauty standarts #also weird centering of men all over again in feminism and in general for some reason #remember in the early 2010s when emma watson was like obliterated for that 'he for she' campaign #because it prioritized men in feminist discourse and then thats the exact direction where things went later on (and where it is currently) #people care more abt like 'haha this is my golden retriever bf he drinks respect women juice!' than about actual women speaking abt feminis #like being a feminist isnt about social change and women prioritizing each other its abt how dudes are hot when they do the bare minimum! #also have you noticed the rise in lesbophobia both in the sense of persecution of lesbians themselves #and of lesbians relationships and culture which other wlw are also part of (its giving lavender menace) #and also remember how we had the me too movement and then immediately after #everyone still fell for a smear campaing against a victim of domestic abuse? #anyway i would really love to get back to basics of like women should support each other! #and beauty standarts overwhelmingly negatively affect women and girls! #and we still need to incentivize girls to seek out intellectual pursuits especially in STEM and leadership roles! #because we continue to be underpresented in those fields and the only way to enact change is to bring our perspectives to those areas #instead of asking politely for guys to throw us a bone! #also stop acting like its cringe to openly and vocally center and prioritize women in every sphere of our lives possible! #and also maybe go back to actively trying to do that! and considering that a good thing!?? #because we're the ones who should have our backs most of all?? idk idk #also where are the teeth?? #why is everyone so afraid of being angry now??? #its like some people circled back to being afraid of being mistaken for man-hating or something #just for pointing out common sense aspects of oppression without adding an asterisk about how men suffer too! #i thought we all knew there is no such thing as reverse sexism!!! #idk!!! #and this isnt me condoning choice feminism many women are evil and actively work against their own interests #or antagonize other women to make themselves feel important such as terfs etc #but idk its like everyone internalized that 'well women can suck too' so hard that its become like #'*most* women suck and we dont even have to keep trying to empathize and prioritize each other and our issues anymore'

I think I have only seen western fans being a little obsessed by their fave celeb's morality. Yes, entertainers hold a lot of power but, they could so very easily abuse it? They could post the most uninformed take and imagine the impact of it. Do you know how much a celeb has actually researched to speak about any international topic or national topic for that matter? And are there no other artists that are talking about it? If your own morality and ethics are dependent on a celeb's insta post then I think you should start supporting celebs who make those posts because honestly there a lot of them and they are facing repercussions of speaking up. Why don't you support them? Why do you need to wait for a celeb to speak up for you to call your local representative or educating your fellow friends on the same? Why aren't you checking which representative is supporting this genocide and which are speaking against it?

#taylor swift #I am just genuinely confused #like Selena who also have a mass following posted about Ukraine? has that ended the war? #I think some of the fans just want the insta post to be made and be content that their face celeb spoke against the cause once #you have Emma Watson she has been speaking about Palestinian rights from a while #good for her #support her #she is using her platform for a good cause

what if just no one went to the disney live action remakes? what would they do?? stop making them?? would they actually make something new again?? rethink their actions? or will they make like, a frozen 3

#omg i just realised #they are making a toy story 5 #pls god no stop the 4th one already sucked ass #also dont remake moana its not even 10 years old #buckets rage #disney #the little mermaid #i just want them to stop ive only been to beauty and the beast and that was because of emma watson and i was like 12

[thetriggeredhappy]

have you ever been on the verge of a breakdown panic attack at your job and had a celebrity show up? turns out, works just like a factory reset

#shut up me #for the record not like a jack black or emma watson kinda situation #more like a. like a brian david gilbert #like i had to explain to my coworkers later why my hands were shaking for the next few hours #but also the person in question wasn’t super surprised about being recognized and asked for a picture and autograph #will not be explaining more because privacy reasons but. yeah jesus christ #my girlfriend is pissed because she’s the one who even introduced me to the content this creator works in #and she’s a way bigger fan. very very neurodivergently obsessed and formerly hyper fixated #the fiendship tag

[clarabow-mp3]

i haven't written the next chapter of my fic but i have cast the entire took family so. that's arguably more productive.

#also i actually did write a pretty good paragraph for my thesis but WHATEVER who CARES i want to write FANFICTION!!!! #btw. richard e. grant is paladin took julie walters is eglantine emmy rossum is pearl emma watson is pimpernel and ruby cruz is pervinca. #specifically ruby cruz with the hair colour she had in mare of eastown but shorter #and every time i picture pearl i think of that picture of emmy rossum smoking in shameless. that's pearl took to me. #this isn't even exactly what they look like in my head it's just the closest approximation i can think of both in looks and in vibe

[lesbianstarlightglimmer]

Does anyone know if there’s anyone who remakes the monster high g3 dolls to make em more show accurate?

#meows #monster high #like that person who redid the #live action beauty and the beast’s belle #to look more like Emma Watson? #bc I love these dolls but it drives me nuts #how they all look the same body wise when they don’t on show #also draculara isn’t skinny but her doll is!!! stop!!!

[bitchthefuck1]

First we mocked American accents, then we mocked English accents; now it's time to pick our new target: that weird overly annunciated flattened voice English people do when they're trying to do an American accent

#Benedict Cumberbatch as doctor strange consider yourself warned #its like a more stilted version of newscaster voice because its a generic nonspecific American accent but it almost sounds like California #by way of south Carolina #like you get bits of stereotypical valley girl with a hint of southern twang #idk i just think this particular phenomenon is really funny #Emma watson in Little women is also in the crosshairs here

[mcbitchtits]

i just watched the beauty and the beast live action and it is so deeply... uncharming. everything is beautiful and it completely sucks

#the character design? cold and stilted. #the cinematography? worse than the animated original #the editing is truly awful for some reason so pacing from beat to beat is a roll of the dice #the voice acting is heartless. there is no chemistry between characters #the cgi is very isolated from the sets or action #the orchestration is worse for some reason #i don't believe a single thing anyone is emoting except kevin kline #and WOW lefou is like 10x more insultingly played than i anticipated #the autotuning on emma watson is also. bad.

[evergardenwall]

whenever my brother starts debating the existence of trans and nonbinary people, i just feel sick. sick of not being able to properly answer him and show him he’s wrong, sick of seeing him pretending he knows better than me, sick of the way he twists my arguments (“so, if you say that gender is cultural, we can criticize non-binary genders, right? because they’re bullshit!”), sick of him looking at me like i’m a hysterical girl who’s incapable of having a calm discussion when i start getting emotional. like. god. i know he doesn’t have actual bad intentions but i still hate him

#he made fun of emma watson for refusing to play in the next h*rry p*tter movie unless jkr wasn’t involved too.... #like he doesn’t realise that t*rfs are a HATE GROUP #also he and his friends asked me to explain what jkr exactly did and i had to explain to them the whole thing and her anti-trans manifesto #and. idk. having to recount all of this alone in front of two cishet guys who refused to believe me broke my heart a little #this is really dumb huh #entries #vent #transphobia

[lungsmp3]

i genuinely believe sadie sink will be an oscar winner like i can truly see her following a jodie foster career path of going from child actor to one of the greats in a matter of maybe ten years and having a very long and successful career bc she honestly just kills it in everything she's in

#idk im just dead excited to look back at the kids in like 20 years time and see what they've done yk #i think mbb will follow an emma watson/angelina jolie career path of getting super into campaigns and stuff but ultimately being too- #recognisable a face and also not being in the most high brow media #that's not shade i just think she's going to be in more fun stuff than dramas yk. and any dramas she is in will be good until she's like 35 #and then they will be mediocre lol #i think caleb will be like andrew garfield in that he will KILL IT in everything he does but go largely underappreciated by everyone except #the tumblr girlies and a couple of renaissances every five years or so #i think finn had his chance to get a leonardo dicaprio career but beansed it with some of his film choices by not going serious enough imo #idk. none of this is meant to be shade or mean btw i just like trying to predict stuff lol #but my point about sadie still stands i do think she will be this generation's jodie foster

[akaanonymouth]

I really don't know what to feel about this. Yeah, people are entitled to their opinions and hell, I stopped putting people on pedestals years ago, and worked through the whole - I'm not going into it; if you were there, you know - sub-Berena drama. And went to see Catherine in Habeas Corpus and absolutely fell in awe again, I mean, her acting is beyond talent and skill, man, and irl after the show she left me breathless bc her presence was just beaut. And she is just... well. beaut. But...

Idk.

This reeks, and reminds me of why I became uncomfortable w her outside of the Holby drama in the first place.

#do you #like. don't come @ me w she doesnt know. she spends a lot of time on twatter. #and if the excuse is she's only seeing 'one side' of the 'debate' then that also speaks to the type of pwople she follows and therefore #the rhetoric she's seeing #shes entitles to yeah but #don't say you're an ally and a feminist and then like this shit #and i say this as someone who built a life because of HP. And finds it difficult to let a lot of it go. #but i absolutely know that jkr is a hateful bitter person whose ignorance and fear has twisted her #and would never celebrate anything she has to say. #so.... 🤷‍♀️ #and in the wake of all the pile on hate on Emma Watson too #we have a lot of spelling errors and missing words here but my thumbs are fat my brain is too fast and hurty and the day is long. sorry.

[dancingisdangerouss]

It's not Emma watson, It's a random girl and then it switches to an old woman. He's having a nightmare

Awww I’m so sorry Emma!! 🥲 That’s tragic for her.

#but kudos to whoever the other chick is #she’s BANGIN #I mean her body #but she’s also banging #like #yknow what I mean #don’t look at me #asks #anon #penny for your thots #ethan hawke #emma watson #regression

[barry2018-2023]

i hate all this fucking hair on my head idk what to do with it i don’t want to cut it off i spent all these years growing it up but oh my god. oh my god. leave me alone. stop touching my shoulders. why are you so heavy. every day i have to brush you. fuck offfff

#how do you all liiiiiiiive like this #i also have stupid poofy hair it's not even cute #my hair looks like what they tried to make emma watson's hair look like as hermione before they gave up and let her be pretty
