Which would efficiently upend the “women must compete against each other” message established in the first act (that was never addressed), provide Diana with a modicum of character development, and instantly outshine all the pathetic attempts at LGBTQ+ rep Marvel has ever half-heartedly mustered.
Everything in WW84 would’ve been avoided if Barbara wished to be WITH Diana instead of being “like” her.

WW84- Uncomfortable with everything about Steve Trevor.
Ok, look, so I was pretty drunk when I watched WW84 (too much rum and eggnog, oops) and a LOT of people are posting about all of the…not….good….racial stuff happening in the movie. And that is a very important conversation and think it deserves some very real critique. But the thing that struck me the most as I was actively watching it? Was how….bad and uncomfortable EVERYTHING with Steve Trevor was. 
Like, ok, first of all, you want me to believe that Diana has been pining after this man for 60 years? SIXTY YEARS? Over literally the first dude she met? The world is full of awesome incredible beautiful interesting people, and you’re telling me in 60 years Diana didn’t let herself enjoy the company of any other person because of a dude she knew for like a week?  Not believable. Absolutely not.
Secondly, I was just super uncomfortable the entire time that we established that Steve was just like…legit possessing the body of some guy. Some man, with a life and friends and a job- just becomes a meat puppet for Steve Trevor’s….ghost soul? And we’re supposed to be OK with that? We aren’t going to question the ethics of this at all? 
Like…. Diana….this RANDOM MAN who is being possessed by your dead boyfriend did not consent to all this sex you’re having with his body, this can absolutely be argued is rape, why did we even bother establishing this???? I would not have questioned the magic rock just giving Steve Trevor a new body, but instead we intentionally made is really fucking weird and ethically dubious (CRIMINAL? I’m going to say ethically CRIMINAL) and I don’t understand why. WHY DID STEVE NEED TO BE POSSESSING A RANDOM MAN’S BODY? I am NOT ok with it. 
Like, the first 20 minutes of the movie that is just Diana being flirty and cute with Barbara was delightful and I enjoyed it and then Steve shows up and I just never recovered.

My favorite line of WW84: "Well, shit, Diana."

I happily fork over $2.49 for a single pomegranate not for the taste or the antioxidants, but to, for a brief moment in my dreary, workaday life, feel like an ancient Greek deity reveling in the glorious natural abundance of the universe

you’re sitting across from me in a shitty diner in anywhere, america, and i watch you pour too much creamer in your coffee and i think “i love you.” you look up, catching me staring, and for a moment i think i’m brave enough to say it, but i take too long and the moment passes. i take the balled up straw wraper and flick it at you, pretending that was my plan all along. you laugh. i never want to go another day without hearing that laugh. i think i will have all the time in the world to say it.
