Damn, Disney hitting me hard with Encanto, the story of a family healing from the emotional abuse of a perfectionistic and deeply hurt matriarch who puts immense pressure on her family to perform and put on a good public face. Everyone thinks everyone else is perfect and so they're all suffering alone. It's only the lost, forgotten child who can see the cracks and heal the hurt.
Just @ me next time, Disney, jeez.
#encanto#disney nerd#disney#disney encanto#It's me I'm mirabel#family trauma#like literally#My grandpa died very young#Left grandma alone with two young kids#Who developed shitty coping mechanisms#And it messed up my mom#And she messed up us kids#And now I'm trying to break the cycle#I won't let it be 4 fucked up generations#Thanks Lin Manuel Miranda#lin manuel miranda#Damn though#Heavy shit#Call Louisa
