It’s Okay It’s Love(2014)

This drama is tragically and beautifully written. We rarely see the deglamorized reality of Mental Illness and the stigmas that come with it. I would highly suggest this drama to everyone! You don’t even have to be a drama fan to appreciate this amazingly well written story.

poppypicklesticks-blog

In some east Asian countries, mental illness carries even more of a stigma then it does in the UK and the US, which makes this film so much more important.

Ok I cried this drama needs so much more attention

The two male leads both suffer from mental illnesses

The male lead has very severe schizophrenia

He also has PTSD and can only sleep in his bathtub

His friend (the second male) has Tourette’s which is consistently portrayed

They DO NOT HOLD BACK on the ableist statements and remarks posed to the characters at all

Nearing the end of the drama the male lead completely loses his grasp on reality with a severe relapse

Neither character gets miraculously 100% cured (both are indicated to still take medication)

They make peace with their illnesses and it’s a happy ending

The drama’s writers were also recently given a plaque for their efforts in raising awareness for this, and it breaks the stereotype of the conventional ‘perfect family’ K-drama. Seriously, go watch this.

nani was NINETEEN and such a fucking badass who was so protective of lilo and just ROLLED with aliens being a thing towards the end of the movie. #1 Disney relative of all time.

mamasam

I have honestly been waiting AGES for the right gifset to express the wonderful perfection that is Nani. She is not only protective of Lilo, she respects the way Lilo’s imagination and quirkiness works.

Pudge the fish got a peanut butter sandwich every Thursday. Nani does not argue the logic of feeding him, only suggests an alternative sandwich when they are out of peanut butter. Lilo was allowed to take as many photos of whatever mundane or odd subjects as she wanted and Nani would get them developed. Nani recognized what were important habits for Lilo.

When Lilo asks for a pet lobster, Nani does not tell her that lobsters are not pets. She tells her, “We don’t have a lobster door, we have a dog door.” She makes sure the woman at the pound does not tell Lilo that “Stitch is not a real name”.

NANI SPENDS THE ENTIRE MOVIE MAKING SURE THAT LILO NEVER FEELS LIKE HER IDEAS ARE WRONG.

The only time we truly see Nani get angry with Lilo is when she is scared of Lilo being taken away. Nani spends the entire movie stressed out over taking care of her sister, trying to find a job, trying to make sure her sister has a friend, and yet she is always willing to put that extra effort, over and over again, to make sure that Lilo always believes that anything is possible.

This is a great moment because she probably *remembered* that Lilo said this once. And you know what? Shes not ending this day by letting her little sister think this is her fault. She’s not having an easy time trying to be a parent, but she knows none of this is her sisters fault, and shes not going to let her think it is.

And half of her terror of losing Lilo isnt even just losing her family; its knowing that wherever Lilo goes, they won’t know how to do these things. They won’t understand her.

What a good movie.

Casual reminder that the reason Lilo obsessively feeds the fish is because her parents died in a rainstorm and she firmly believes Pudge controls the weather. If you pay attention to the feeding sequence you will notice that storm clouds recede and dissipate, a visual narrative that confirms this.

It’s not just a habit. It’s a very real part of Lilo’s healing process and Nani understands that.

Also if you pay attention to Nani’s room you’ll notice she had surfing posters and trophies. She was very much on her way to being a pro surfer but had to give it up to become the adult Lilo needed her to be.

And not ONCE does Nani show her sister any resentment. It’s worth it to keep her family together. This is a young woman who is willing to sacrifice all of her dreams and make incredibly grown up decisions.

What I am saying is Nani is the best disney princess of all time. Disney Queen even.

sometimes I wish Black folks were just as cold hearted as white folks.

But I always remember, we would never stoop that low to dehumanize and celebrate a person’s death. You will never see us out here mocking someone’s last words. You will never see us praising a person that murdered a white person.

We are too human for these people. I am proud of us.

thatfif-deactivated20190316

When people say some dumb shit about how they don’t understand why people can hate cops, I’ll just show them this pic and walk away. A man was murdered but, it’s a joke to them. Fuck all your cops. You keep saying “not all cops” but, I don’t see the supposed good ones standing against the corrupt ones…. So, yeah, all cops.

Disgusting

poulpie

Yeah of course all white people are cold asshile and white people kind hearted. Please stop stereotypes.

Yet, im not going to defend any racist or killer. Just , a friendly reminder That white racism isnt acceptable either.

keepitmovinshawty

You cannot be racist against white ppl. You can be prejudiced, but not racist. No, they are not the same thing. When people of color are granted the system of benefits and institutional power that comes along with being white in the US, then we’ll talk about people of color being racist against whites. Until then, shut the fuck up.

Please stop stereotypes. Stop with the bullshit and stop trying to make it about you. It’s not about you. It’s about those who are oppressed by you and your ilk. You feel stereotyped? Imagine how a person of color feels every single day of their lives.
