by the way. it never is too late to decide you want to be happy. the woman who helped me get hormones didnt start hers until she was 70, and i met her at 73, beautiful and smiling - and told me that the last three years of her life had been her favorite. your favorites might be ahead of you too. why not hang around and find out?

i wanna see more stories with a time skip epilogue where at least one character has clearly transed their gender and it isnt really remarked upon. bonus if none of them were remotely hinted to be trans until that moment because i think it'd be funny to watch a fandom react to that. your blorbo's happily ever after involves being a woman. dont worry about it.

Her name is Blorba now.

You know how we call things "pseudoscience"... the media analysis that's being done on twitter and tumblr should be pseudohumanities

I told my little nephew that I'd wave at his airplane when it flew over my house today, and he very calmly and politely explained that it wouldn't be possible to see me due to the limitations of human vision. I said he just had to squint real hard, and he took a deep breath and went into the toddler version of "see, what you're not understanding–"

My toxic trait is that if I find a product I like I want to keep using the same product forever. It's not even brand loyalty. It's called stop changing and discontinuing everything.

Hey kids, you need to start worrying a little less about getting “#mogged” and a little more about getting “#smogged”. This is an Air Quality Index public service announcement.

Cinder Rankings - Cindy (1978)

Originality- 4/5 It's a realistic, all black version of Cinderella set in Harlem in the 40s. Cindy and her family are actually poor in this movie, and her stepmother is mad because her new husband didn't tell her he had a daughter before they got married. Cinderella also doesn't marry a prince in this version, and literally everyone gets their own happily ever after.

Soundtrack- 3/5 I didn't even realize this was a musical at first. The first song is just Cindy singing in church, but then her stepsisters get their own villain song later on. The music is all good, but there's not enough of it.

Romance- 4/5 Captain Joe Prince doesn't show up until 47 minutes in, which is about halfway through the movie. When he and Cindy finally do meet, it looks like love at first sight. But at the last minute, Cindy realizes she's not in love with him and actually has feelings for her next door neighbor Michael, who is also the fairy godmother stand-in. They're actually a really cute couple, even if I didn't see it coming.

Enjoyability- 4/5 I like this movie, it's different from most of the other Cinderella stories I've seen. It feels more realistic, and adds a country mouse/city mouse dynamic to Cindy and her stepfamily that I definitely haven't seen before. I love Cindy, she's so sweet and genuine.

Morals- 3/5 "Marry for love, not for money". Not a lesson you usually see in Cinderella stories, but I can't complain.

Total- 18/25

Cinder Rankings - Cinderella (2000)

Originality- 5/5 This movie starts out as a very standard Cinderella movie, then takes a sharp turn when it introduces Mab the Fairy Godmother, an off putting, cave dwelling sea witch (or maybe mermaid) who talks to birds and hates people. The stepfamily also know about Mab, the stepsisters follow Cinderella to her cave. There's also no glass slippers in this movie, Cinderella goes to the ball in shoes made of flower petals. I've also never seen a Prince Charming meet the Fairy Godmother before.

Soundtrack- 2/5 not a musical

Romance- 3/5 I didn't like Prince Valiant at first, he seemed kind of sexist, but I think that was the point. He has no interest in romance until he meets Cinderella, then he falls head over heels for her. It's very fast, but that's to be expected from this kind of movie. There's also a side romance between Mab, the Fairy Godmother, and Cinderella's elderly male servant slash father figure.

Enjoyability- 3/5 The movie is fine, but Cinderella's father absolutely enrages me. He's complicit with her abuse, and even calls her "Cinderella" instead of her actual name. There's a reason most adaptations kill him off. He's completely devoted to the stepmother, and treats his daughter like garbage. I also think Cinderella herself is kind of boring. She never fights back, or does anything to make herself stand out. The third act is my favorite. The stepsisters try to murder Cinderella, and she destroys the slipper after the stepmother threatens to kill her father. The stepmother, Claudette, is iconic though.

Morals- 3/5 I have no idea what to put here. "Forgive your toxic family members"? "Marriage is hard work"?

Total- 16/25
