[dead-grrrls]

the urge to start making riot grrrl music vs the knowledge that you have no idea how to play any instruments (and hated trying to learn any when you tried five years ago), can’t sing, and have no lyrical talent.

RIOT GRRRL ALBUMS: LIFE RIPS BY MOMMY LONG LEGS

Released: March 13, 2015

Length: 16 mins and 52 secs

Amount of Songs: 7

Favourite Song on Album: Sorority Girls

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My Thoughts: I love how the beat to the songs are super upbeat and their voices are extremely feminized and come off as ditzy as well as how their lyrics often play into the delusion of being these stereotypes of women that they demolish the image of with cadence and using other lyrics to demonstrate the issues or their disgust with the actions and people partaking in/forcing people into these roles.

feminist recs week 11:

mixtape (2021): In 1999, 12-year-old Beverly discovers a broken mixtape made by her late parents. She sets out to find the songs -- and learn more about her mom and dad. (google)

this movie is such a wholesome depiction of coming of age and discovering the punk scene.

feminist rec week (it’s definitely been a month) 14:

daria: brainy, sardonic daria morgendorffer tries to fly under the radar at lawndale high school, and she's doing a pretty good job of it: her self-esteem teacher can't even remember her name. not that low self-esteem is a problem for daria, who explains that `i have low esteem for everyone else'. frankly, she couldn't care less about the airheads in the `in' crowd, like her sister, quinn, or cheerleader brittany. at least best friend jane lane is readily available any time daria needs a break from all the clueless masses around them. (google)

i think it’s almost time for a re-watch.

feminist recs week 13:

harley quinn 2021 annual: Kevin here! You know, Harley’s sidekick, and your favorite new character? I know Harley usually does these solicits, but she’s a little tied up at the moment. Like, literally. See, there’s a new villain in Gotham calling himself Keepsake, and you know how Gotham villains are: definite psychological issues.

while the first issue is narrated by harley’s friend kevin, it explores both characters healing from the abuse of joker. it’s such a beautiful depiction of the aftermath of surviving abuse.
