I seriously can’t understand why people are saying they’re mad that they made Harley Quinn/Margot Robbie ugly. I actually think these outfits reflected Harley Quinn more than SS

By the way, have I told you about my new favourite movie Birds of Prey!

It is freaking awesome!

Can you guess who my favourite character is?

Also HarleyFood needs it's own tag.

when Harley is like ‘WHIP ME’ and huntress just goes ‘kay’ and wrecks her bike with zero hesitation what an icon

Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) Fringe costume.. Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (2020).. Costume by Erin Benach.

There is literally no comparable scene like this in any movie and it’s the best

Thinking about how the cinematography and lighting in the scene where hungover Harley Quinn buys an egg sandwich, and goes through the heartbreak of losing it, is better and more moving than 99% of cinema

Birds of Prey (2020) dir. Cathy Yan

[thelieskeepslipping]

Must a female led, written, and directed film be good to men? Is it not enough to see empowering, badass, pretty women going absolutely batshit feral for two hours?

So. 10th grade English class. We all come in one morning to find a balloon and a perfectly sharpened pencil on each of our desks. No instructions, no explanation, which is strange, because our teacher is meticulous about that sort of thing. A couple of people try to ask her and she says we’ll get to it. She takes role and then announces that she needs to go to the copy room and she’ll be back in a couple of minutes

Kinda unorthodox, but no one is complaining because this is advanced English and the teacher usually goes kinda hard. So, y’know. Brief respite. We all sit and chat; one of the boys teasingly steals a girl’s balloon, but gives it back to her easily enough; it’s quiet and kind of a nice break. Then the teacher comes back, stops in the doorway, and just stares at us

After a long moment, she says, confused, “You didn’t pop the balloons.”

To which one of the guys about two rows over exclaims, “We’re allowed to pop them?” and immediately turns around and stabs his friend’s balloon with the pencil

There is a vicious revenge balloon-stabbing, and a few more people pop seatmates’ balloons or their own, and the whole time the teacher is just shaking her head. “I can’t believe you didn’t pop your balloons.”

Apparently we were starting Lord of the Flies that day and she wanted to demonstrate the basic concept of kids turning on each other when there are no authority figures present and it was basically my favorite failed social experiment ever

ppl who get critical of like… white middle class extinction rebellion protestors and like… jane fonda, because “they can afford to get arrested” like… that is the point? the point is to use your privilege to put yourself in the way of things. if you are white and middle class in the u.s. and the u.k. you can occupy waterloo bridge, or city hall, or the capitol steps, and you can refuse to move when a cop tells you to, and the worst thing that will happen to you is a fine you can afford to pay. (you might also sustain some injuries, to be fair we must acknowledge that that is not negligible.) the point is you cause disruption by putting your privileged body in the way, where you create disruption that forces attention to be drawn to what you are saying, and you do this because you can afford to. if you are jane fonda you also wear a jaunty hat and smile smugly because you are the safest person on earth, and also it makes the cops look real dumb. it’s the point!

Lol I haven’t used tumblr in a minute, I came here for some endgame content after the movie and I forgot how mad ya’ll love to be about everything

I’m really glad they confirmed Carol as a lesbian with that haircut

[thelieskeepslipping]

All the women standing together to protect Carol was singularly the best and most empowering part of that movie hands down. I’ll fight

[thelieskeepslipping]

needless to say Carol’s new haircut in Endgame had me like
