This film was everything.
Can I tell you how grateful I am to you for…Giving me the strength, and the courage to stop hiding…

Top 10 Dinnerladies Moments that Broke the Cast
“The thing is, the song wasn't scripted. We'd rehearsed the scene as it was, then when the cameras were setting up, Rosie was noodling around on the piano (just for fun) then she started to sing this most beautiful song, which I now know to be 'A Case Of You' by Joni Mitchell. It was mesmerising.
As I say, it wasn't scripted, but it fitted the mood of the scene so perfectly that we decided to film it, not knowing whether we'd be able to use it or not. Joni Mitchell very rarely gives permission for her work to be used like this, so we wrote to her and explained the story... and she gave us the thumbs up. Can you believe it? We felt very honoured and very lucky and very grateful. It's a breath-taking moment, and I think it's the most extraordinary thing l've ever had the privilege of being part of shooting.”

never give up on your dreams. Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau are dating. that's not a dream come true for either of them or any of us, but it does prove that things you cannot even fathom of happen every single day. So, why not your hopes and dreams?

Say it isn't so.
Diane Keaton is gone. And it hurts.
She wasn’t just talented—she was herself, fully and unapologetically. I loved her work. The awkward charm, the quiet depth, the way she made you feel like being different was something to lean into, not hide.
She made space for women to be quirky, complicated, and real. She mattered. And she’ll be missed.
Yes, this is EXACTLY what you voted for.
You voted for a clown sleep farting through his court case. A convicted felon and lifelong rapist. The swamp incarnate. A narcissist and fraud willing to do anything to enrich himself.
Voting for Harris/Walz was clearly better considering your kids' student debt and husband's job situation.
You picked the unserious choice. You lost.
i can't be the only one who's just straight-up ... bored with women hating themselves. my mom keeps lamenting to me how upset she is about her gray hair. my friend stares at her laugh lines every day in agony. my sister loses sleep over the horrible unbearable thought of looking fat. and every time these women i love open up to me, i can't help but think ... then stop staring at yourself? stop drowning yourself, narcissus, and just fucking live your life instead of sitting in front of a mirror obeying cosmetic corporations' lies. just stop it. this is getting ridiculous. you're too smart to be falling for this bullshit. "oh no but these men who hate women told me that if i'm ugly i'm worthless!" girl if you actually believe that then good luck. but i am getting worse at being supportive of people whose nonsense worldviews keep them trapped in pain. stop looking at yourself start fucking living i am pleading you deserve to be happy and it is stupid that you disagree
Someone in the comments said "you really said just stop being insecure" and yes :) make an effort to stop spiralling about your looks, challenge insecure thoughts and stop doing things that lead to you feeling insecure.
I always come back to this: Do your insecurities match your morals?
Do you truly believe that having belly fat makes people disgusting? That the media should have final say on how you feel about yourself? If you don't believe it and there is a mismatch between your moral beliefs and your gut reaction to your appearance...
Then yeah. Stop being insecure. It's work but it's worth it.
Promoting @sarkywoman 's tags as that's a perfectly distilled mantra:
I am not the exception to my beliefs
