a good example of a “social construct” is national borders. bc like:

arbitrary and made up

but strongly enforced 

often unfair & unreasonably defined

used as a tool of oppression

can be changed at any time but only by the powerful (and so are usually only changed to benefit the powerful)

individuals spend their lives accommodating them at great cost

so when we say “social construct” we don’t mean “not real.” we mean “hey we control the way this thing works, and the way it exists now is hurting a lot of people. so we should probably design it better & make it less rigid. which we can do, bc we built it.”

being smart enough not to work in school and then seeing everyone u thought u were smarter than succeeding way beyond u bc they actually developed a good work ethic and didn't just rely on being able to bullshit at the last minute is pretty crushing but also absolutely deserved

all those days chasing down a daydream all those years living in a blur all that time never truly seeing things, the way they were now she’s here shining in the starlight now she’s here suddenly I know if she’s here it’s crystal clear I’m where I’m meant to go

Why you should watch Enola Holmes (2020)

- female teenage protagonist (Enola) is 16, played by actual 16yr old Millie Bobby Brown instead of an adult woman

- love interest (Tewkesbury) is played by 17yr old Lewis Partridge and not a man that’s way older than Millie

- Enola is not sexualized once in the entire movie

- Enola is not made to look older than 16

- period movie that isn’t depressing or super dark

- criticisms on society that are very valid today

- Tewkesbury cries on screen (let men show their feelings 2020)

- Enola is not a damsel in distress, in fact she’s the one that goes out of her way to save Tewkesbury

- Enola is 90% of the time wearing an outfit that is comfortable on her and allows her to move freely, the only times she doesn’t are when she’s undercover

- a genuinly fun story that’s easy to follow, appropriate for kids and not boring to adults

- no love at first sight bullshit, it takes Enola ages before she realizes her feelings and love is not her main motivation

- Mycroft is an absolute abysmal human being and the movie never tries to sympathise with him. He’s just straight an asshole and isn’t given a redemption or sympathy

- movie is written and produced by women
