"Capitalism is a PERFECT system. The problem is that humans are imperfect"

Are you stupid. Are you dumb. What the fuck are you on about. What fucking use is a perfect system that falls apart any time it is applied to the people it was designed for.

why do we bash Cruella de Vil for kidnapping and trying to skin puppies to make into a coat but we never question if the dogs just had bad vibes? Or if they’re just unpleasant to be around?

you see the real reason cruella de vil wanted to skin those puppies to make a furcoat was because, well, we live in a society-

turns out after years of trying to figure out the best way to find writing motivation all i had to do was start writing lesbians

[bookreader-bookwriter]

folks on twitter have already pointed out that Cruella is perhaps the worst possible choice for a protagonist seeing as how her entire motivation is ‘wants to murder puppies for money’ and there’s just. no way to spin that. 

Maleficent worked, okay, she worked because she was a pretty mysterious character to begin with; her goals and motivations in Sleeping Beauty were vague enough that there was room for character exploration. but Cruella? 

the reason Cruella was such a fantastic and fantastically funny villain was just how BASIC she was. 

here’s Cruella: she designs clothes, she thinks a puppy-skin coat would look cool, she kidnaps a bunch of puppies because she’s rich and spoiled and used to getting her way. that’s it. that’s all there is to her. that’s all there needed to be, because a. her voice actress was god-tier b. her design and animation was flawless c. the story was pretty simple and didn’t need a villain with complex motivations and d. she shared the villainous spotlight with Jasper and Horace (who i might actually be interested in seeing a movie about tbh, just because ‘a weird old rich lady hired us to steal dogs from another rich lady and her husband and now the dogs are fighting back why is this happening where did my life go wrong’ is a fucking hilarious premise) 

my point is WHY NOT URSULA

SERIOUSLY. URSULA. 

there’s SO MUCH you could do with Ursula. not only does she have all the charisma and visual flare that Cruella does, her motivations, like Maleficent’s, were always a touch unclear. 

she fucking hates the king of the sea and it’s never really explained why. she fucks around with two monarchies seemingly for the lols. she can do magic but she lives alone in a cave with only her prisoners and her two eels for company AND she actually loves her eels and is legit sad when they die. she’s weird and mysterious and sneaky and badass and there’s just. so many cool paces you could go with her! does she have a reason to hate the king? why is she the only octopus person we see? why do people still make deals with her given that she’s made a horrifying living garden out of those who couldn’t pay up? she turned herself into a human so she’s a shapeshifter, holy fuck, is that something she’s done before? 

ursula movie pls  (but like. someone other than disney make it)

it's always "oh you're writing? when will you be published and famous??" and never "oh you're writing? come sit down and talk to me about every aspect of it unprompted for 6 hours"

[bookreader-bookwriter]

are you telling me they’re making a Cruella movie and she’s not even a MILF??
