if i had a nickel for every time a (half) demon desperately kissed a (half) angel to get them to stay with them, i'd have two nickels.

which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

BARBIE SPOILERS bc i watched the movie earlier today and i need to talk about it

first of all, scenes that made me cry;

1. the opening scene where the little girls break their baby dolls and their kitchen sets bc they realize they can become more than good mothers and housewives.

2. barbie seeing an older woman in the real world and telling her how beautiful she is.

3. barbie meeting ruth handler.

4. gloria's monologue about the struggles women face every day.

5. last scene with barbie and ruth handler where barbie becomes human.

my favorite characters;

barbie, gloria, weird barbie, allan

how i connected to this movie;

it reminded me a lot about how, from a child, i became a teenager. in the beginning, barbie has fun with her friends all day and she doesn't seem to worry about anything, kinda how when we're children we just have fun, don't overthink things and obvs we have no idea about the misogyny that exists out there. soon after that, barbie starts experiencing things like morning breath, not having fresh milk etc, which could me a hint at the changes our bodies go through before we get our periods. when barbie goes to the real world, men are staring at her creepily, slap her butt, catcall her. in real life and in my personal experience, men started staring at me at the beach when i was 14 and i've been catcalled numerous times outside my school by men old enough to be my grandpas. suddenly i started becoming aware of what i was wearing, how my body was developing etc. and finally, when she goes back to barbieland, the kens have created their own patriarchy and ryan gosling's ken has taken her house. this reminded me a lot of how i had to watch boys i knew since we were preschoolers, become these sexist jerks. they were the sweetest little boys and then they would call us sluts, make sexual comments about our bodies, spread rumours about having had sex with one of us. the sad thing in the movie is that ken doesn't understand patriarchy, but he's still part of it. by the end of the movie he confesses to barbie that he saw some men riding horses in the real world and thought that patriarchy = horses, and that's why he wanted to bring it to barbieland. ken's motives weren't exactly bad, he just wanted the horses, and yet he was still part of the problem. also, the final scene where barbie goes to the gynecologist bc she's human and she has genitals is such an obvious way to compare it to the fact that when we become teenagers we have to change doctors and finally visit a gynecologist.

bonus;

barbie not being sasha's doll but gloria's because gloria may be a grown up but she stopped being a child way too soon for her liking so when she's stressed, sad etc she finds comfort in her favorite toy. 😭😭😭

i can't stop thinking about crowley knowing full well what pet names are and what "angel" means for humans but still calling aziraphale "angel" because he wants someone out there to know how he feels. he obvs can't tell heaven or hell and he's kinda made his feelings known but aziraphale told him he goes too fast and he doesn't have any other friends so he just keeps calling him "angel" in front of the humans because then at least someone will know how in love with him he is.

i just wanna know why crowley decided to wear that beautiful turtleneck instead of what he usually wears
