It's Always "makeup Is About Self-expression," Yeah Why Does Your Self-expression Always Include Glassy

my working theory when reading elon musk news is that he watched house of cards and didn't understand who the bad guy was

for reparation, you know

i want to shake many young women and say you can grow in private. and what i mean by that is that you don’t have to publicly self-flagellate when you don’t know something or when you say something a little insensitive or whatever else. you don’t have to report your Bad Thoughts and Ignorance to the crowd who waits to judge you. you do not have to pay penance. you do not have to issue public statements. nothing more is gained from burying yourself in shame than you could gain by thinking “oh i don’t know about this” and looking it up real quick, or thinking “hm, that wasn’t how i want to behave, i’ll do different next time” and then moving on with your life. no need to choke yourself with it.

It follows Delia, a woman stuck in an abusive marriage, during the days of the first italian general elections in which women were allowed to vote, just after the liberation from fascism, while american troops were still patrolling italian streets.

It's fun and delicate while tackling important issues, and it's one of the few strongly feminist movies that managed to appeal to the general public in a country in which femicide is still a prominent issue which our government refuses to talk about.

It was Cortellesi's directional debut (she's also a co-writer and plays the main character), which is wonderful on its own but even more so as it was the most successful film at the Italian box office in 2023.

Please please please support women directors, especially those who are not american and struggle to get to an international public.

I'm begging all feminists to watch this movie if you haven't, it was huge in Italy and deserves more international recognition

I think karma kinda exists because one time I was talking to a classmate about menstrual leave and he was against it because "muh just take medication your period isn't an excuse" and some time later we were taking the same exam and he complained about not passing it because he had an headache so I told him "womp womp take an aspirin" <3

Blue!

I too want to be friends with all the feminists in my phone, dms are always open :)))

Just a heads up: this is not true.

While homosexuals and gender non conforming people were persecuted by nazis, the reason Hirschfeld's institute was shut down was that he was Jewish and promoted the idea that homosexuality was not an illness, which was considered "jewish science".

It is important to remember the many victims of the Holocaust and nazism but it is also important to not bend history in order to fit a narrative.

And I'll say it again: homosexuals and gender non conforming people went through horrible things and it's important to share actual sources on that instead.

having a tumblr is not enough I need to shoot all abusive men
