Kindly Unspoken

Things probably best left unsaid...be prepared to laugh, think, cry, and be possibly offended. Inappropriateness is likely, but you were already thinking it anyways. This is where I get to be immature, shallow, random, and pretend the real world doesn't exist. So you've been warned...you can't ACTUALLY judge me based on this blog. I've got far too many interests which include (but NOT limited to) food, fashion, TV - White Collar, Friday Night Lights, One Tree Hill, Grey's Anatomy, Arrow, Elementary, BONES, Suits, Teen Wolf, Dance Academy, movies, music, dance, history, shoes, friends, family, figure skating, gymnastics, and FUN! This blog will basically have everything i'm not posting on my real blog. twitter: Follow @ruthhcchen !function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");

Gymnastics has come a long compared to that old footage, but this difference is particularly significant for black girls! Because they have never taken seriously our abilities! Just because the color of our skin is not what they want to see!

Simone Biles’s fantastic performance has been covered by many news outlets all these years! Now we can see the real difference!

I was debating whether to reblog but that last comment did it for me

[theallandthemoreofit-deactivate]

Here’s what I think the critics are missing about Beauty and the Beast (even though most seem in favor, just not over the moon about it). They’re reviewing it like its a remake for a new generation. It’s not. It’s a remake for the generation that loved it in the first place. From 3 to 13, a generation of girls (and some boys) fell in love with a girl who loved books. 

And now? Now we’re a generation who grew up wanting a bit of a Han Solo and a bit of a man who would give us a library like Belle’s. And like Belle, if the perfect suitor didn’t come along, we’d get the library by ourselves. We wanted “adventure in the great wide somewhere”. 

Today we have the spending power. And we spend a lot of our disposable income on our fandoms. On movies and music and art and books and fan-related things about them. 

Beauty and the Beast has already been and will continue to be enjoyed by many. But acknowledging that LeFou is so completely gay, having more of a vehemently feminist Belle, not offering any redemption for the eternal fuckboy that is Gaston, keeping books magical, snide remarks about Romeo & Juliet, snarkiness, sarcasm, and that FUCKING GROWL HOLY CRAP ON A CRACKER DAN STEVENS WHO GAVE YOU THE FUCKING RIGHT…this is a remake for the original fans. 

And for us, it’s pretty damn close to perfect.

100x’s 100% accurate.

Melissa get’s this absolutely right. Yes, parents will be taking their children to see this film. But recognize that those parents are the very children that grew up with the original film, and the remainder of your audience are the adults craving an escape from reality to revisit the nostalgia of our dream-filled childhoods. (and yes, we’re probably the ones who will pay to see this film repeatedly over the next few weeks too)

[tessathompsons]

Why do you think it’s so important to have these films that focus on acceptance and identity?

is there ever that one celebrity that no matter what mood youre in, if you feel like crap you just see a picture of them and you just smile and think “thank you for existing” because they have made your day brighter even if you don’t really know them 

[carolrance]

the correct answer is:

[pilgrimkitty]

This is the correct answer. Did you know that when she finds out a studio has asked an actress to lose weight she contacts them and yells at them?

[azriona]

I did not know that, but I do remember an interview where she said she keeps her Oscar in her downstairs loo, because that’s the one her guests use, so they can just go use the loo and don’t have to ask if they can hold her Oscar. Plus then they’ve got the mirror so they can practice their acceptance speeches.

[copperbadge]

That is amazing, now I need to go to her house and ask to use her loo.

Also I will never, ever, ever be over Emma Thompson giving an acceptance speech as Jane Austen.

NOT “baby groot”...but rather “super mischievous, up to no good, but probably going to kick ass intentionally by being ridiculously unpredictable, toddler groot”

[pjaksjsksjsksjajjsjsjsjsjsj]

18 year old Regulus Black willingly drinks a torture potion and dies alone in a cave so that some day, someone will be able to defeat Voldemort.

Horace Slughorn (albeit reluctantly) shows Harry a part of his past he’s kept hidden for years, even from himself, which is a key part of defeating Voldemort.

Narcissa Malfoy looks Voldemort, a man who is not only notoriously evil but also has the ability to READ MINDS, right in the eye and lies to him for the chance to save her son.

Andromeda Tonks’ entire family is killed at the hand of her own sister and some other death eaters and she still finds the strength to go on and be a guardian to her orphaned grandchild.

But Severus Friendzone Snape, that’s the “brave Slytherin” Harry chooses to name his kid after. Ok, sure.

BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW BILL CLINTON MOUTHES “THAT’S MY GIRL” CAN WE FUCKING TALK ABOUT THAT. 

[timgy]

Listen, I voted for her, but in my heart I don’t know that I’ve had many moments of truly liking or admiring her. But this moment? This poise? This complete self-control (in a situation where sexist men would expect her to be falling apart)? I have never been prouder or more admiring of someone. I agree, Bill. That’s our girl.

[lovesdaryl]

Never admired her more than during this speech.

[andkindlyunspoken]

For years, there's been a disease and cancer that festered and grew in our society -- one we simply ignored because of the nature of what it is and the fact that every human being can easily default to it. Tonight, I just witnessed it slowly, but dramatically kill the dreams and future of our country. I'd like to to formally introduce you to something I don't appreciate being nor want to be acquainted with...Apathy.

As cynical as many of you know me to be, I refuse to believe this country is as racist, sexist, elitist, xenophobic, homophobic, bigoted, and downright despicable as is currently appears nor that those traits alone were what determined what just unfolded. (No, I'm not naïve, those people exist. I just choose to believe that we can be, and are better than that)

#Herstory didn't get written tonight. And that's okay, because this isn't the tragic end. The story was about more than just Hillary Clinton becoming the first female president of this (hopefully still?) great nation; it was everyone's story. So this chapter may have closed, but it's not the conclusion of the tale. I know the story is alive and well, because it's MY story too. I'm making sure it gets written, and that starts with me. What about you?

The sun's going to rise again tomorrow, and it'll just be another day. So welcome to the next 4 years. Seriously, if you didn't care before...START CARING. NOW!
