In this case, I 100% agree that there’s no need to bring labels into the situation. In other cases, I disagree. As confining as they can be, labels can really help one understand who’s ... safe or not. I’m not 100% comfortable using THAT label, but it’s the first thing I can think of. I’m purely speaking from my own…

Hrm. I know that gender and sexuality are fluid and all that. This is the third? example, this week, of a lesbian ending up marrying a cis man, or someone AMAB (and who might not be cis, but isn’t a trans woman, and right now I apologize for any toes that I’m stepping on). Isn’t that... well, not a lesbian? I’m not…

Where there no fat actors available? Or are we going to have a shirtless and/or sex scene involving Ford?

I was gonna say something about how it’s a less detailed book than The Secret, but... You’re right.

Eh, I crochet, do my own costumes, play video games, and like to draw. I have stuff, but what I’ve been learning is what I can actually throw away. I don’t need to keep EVERY SINGLE scrap of yarn in case I can find something to do with it, even if I hate the color and think the yarn feels itchy. It’s giving yourself…

Even in the Marie Kondo books, she flat out says that the what and the amount of stuff that truly brings you joy is gonna be different for different people. Like, at no point does she say the point is to have nothing.

Oh good. The straight people are at it again.

(too late, though I checked the history and it seemed like a legit account, but at the same time, getting hung up on one cuss word sure is a troll move)

We would have amazing dinner parties together.

Um, I think you’re missing something. This isn’t a list of just some ballerinas.
Gelsey Kirkland - One of the most acclaimed modern ballerinas. Balachine made her and choreographed things FOR her.
Julie Kent - one of the prima ballerinas who only stepped down to retire a few years ago. She sky rocketed to ballet fame…

Arandelle and Corona aren’t Norway and Germany. They’re based on them, and are still in the same world, but aren’t specifically identified as European, so, we’re still looking at how many white princesses get to be inspired by the culture of a place on Earth, but the non white princesses are tied to a very specific…

Well, I mean, we’re all commenting on a piece about a white woman who put on an afro and bronzer and said it was Diana Ross. And the BuzzFeed link, up thread, sure has a lot of white people with dreads. So, even if “stick to your own race” isn’t the best way to phrase it, “Tiana is a princess who was born poor at a…

Well, I mean, I can’t really think of a Misty Copeland outfit that couldn’t also be Gesley Kirkland, Julie Kent, Margot Fontyn, Gillian Murphy, Lauren Anderson, etc, but that being said, it sounds adorable and awesome.

I don’t even know how to respond to your first part. I’m being serious and not sarcastic. I seriously felt you exaggerated and misread what I was saying and immediately came off as hostile, and right now, it really feels like you’re saying that your feelings on the issue matter, but mine don’t.

I felt like you came right off the bat swinging, and initiating the hostility in misreading my comment.

Well, if we’re JUST talking Disney Princesses, there’s a lot of cultural baggage that comes with them, especially since ALL of the non-white princesses come from either clearly defined places (China, Pre colonial Virginia, Arabia, 1920s New Orleans) that most of the white princesses don’t get (Maybe Megara. But is she…

So, you can’t have a conversation with your children. I’m sorry. I didn’t realize that was the case.
