so I saw someone characterizing the (bullshit, unnecessary, oh my god you didn't even stick to the visual change in the epilogue section) makeover in the movie Enchanted as "Giselle looking like a grown woman instead of a little girl playing dress-up"
and like. I don't know. I'm having Feelings about that
for reference, here's what she spent most of the movie wearing:
and this:
and here's the "made-over" look:
(god it doesn't even FIT THE ACTRESS FLATTERINGLY I hate this look so incredibly much she looks like a grape Flintstones ice cream pop)
now, I see why this commenter said the first looks were childish. one has a long flowy skirt for everyday attire, her hair has flowers and ribbons in it for both, the fabrics are pastel with a floral print- all things that are a far cry from the sleek, muted or neutral vision we have of adulthood nowadays
and I HATE that those things read as "childish" to me. I hate that I can see it. because they didn't always come across that way, and they shouldn't. there's nothing inherently juvenile about decorated, pretty clothing
This is a dress for an adult woman c. 1863
this is a (formal) suit for an adult man c. 1770
This is a fashion plate from 1886
and that's just western fashion from relatively recent history- cultures all over the world have loved decorating clothing, accessories, furniture, and spaces intended for mixed-age or entirely adult use
there's nothing innately childish about bright or pastel colors (or even jewel tones- Adult Clothing seems to comprise nothing but neutrals, these days). or flowers. or ribbons. or just...decorated clothing, at all. why do we see it that way? how much joy are we robbing ourselves of in a quest to be Perfectly Mature by an incredibly exacting standard that didn't even exist for most of human history?

ok seen too many posts about women subjected to moldy berries.
measure out 1 cup of white vinegar and 3 cups of clean water in a large bowl. put the berries in. swim them around for about a minute (edit: the longest i’ve let any berries soak is 3-5 minutes bc otherwise i find they start to disintegrate a bit—ymmv).
rinse the berries once again with clean water to get the vinegar off. dry them and store.
your berries will last much longer trust me…..less food waste, more food taste…..
sincerely, a berry berrible grizzly bear (diet consists sooo much of berries) 🫐🍓🫐

· cravings life hack
if you ever crave something really bad just search up “grosspo”, “disgusting food”, “moldy meals” etc! helps out sm
if you’re craving something special, search up “what-you’re-craving expired” or “what-you’re-craving molded”.
if you still feel hungry after this you disgust me as a human being because you just really just love food too much to lose weight which is kinda sad but someone has to be the fat ones you despise i guess
love u lots sweetheart
