my favorite part of derry girls was just how accurately it portrayed being a normal person in a time of crisis. obviously the events in derry are very much real and ireland has experienced decades of political conflict, and this DOES impact the main characters in a lot of ways, but they still also…. go to school. worry about their friends and birthday parties and being together. because they’re just teenage girls (+ james) and that resonated with me a lot, especially now

"how many pieces of communion do you think you'd need to swallow to eat a whole jesus" is one of my favourite orla lines and i still think about the answer to that question. how many? do we know?

I love the fact that James is genuinely and so openly in awe of Erin and it's because he is very aware of her faults and is more comfortable calling them out while being in like/falling in love with her than before when they were just friends, and none of that changes the fact that he's crazy about her, in fact it adds to it.

Erin Quinn is for: the eldest daughters, the girls who cried in primary school for no reason, the girls with undiagnosed adhd, the girls with 20 sticky notes on her desk with ideas for stories, the girls who were always second but never first, the girls that got told off for talking too much, the girls that wrote their homework by hand because they thought it was more sentimental than just typing it out, the first to go to university in their family, the girls who always remember anyone they’ve ever met, the girls who had an Anne Frank phase, the girls who always try to make the new kid feel welcomed, the girls who never got to go to prom, the cardinal signs, the playlist makers, the 1989 lovers, Greta Gerwig fans, and the girls who hate to drive.
