hey guys i have taken over the official swedish twitter account @sweden for the week which means i am now legally the king and also prime minister of sweden (go there and interact with my tweets please i am begging you)
If you listen to the end of tangled…. Rapunzel and Eugene didnt get married until several years later
same with Aladdin and jasmine!
And Belle was trapped in that castle for months with Beast; I’m pretty sure at least a year.
Also Tiana and her prince were together as frogs for an indeterminate length of time before they married.
Tumblr gets schooled by the Disney fandom
Also let’s not forget Aurora was betrothed (which uhh, was a thing and some places still is).
Cinderella had to be locked in her home away from her prince whilst she knew he was looking for her.
I love how no one is trying to defend Ariel and Snow.
When Ariel was permanently turned back into a human by her father, we don’t know how much time passed between that day and their wedding.
Snow was under the sleeping curse for at least half a year. Remember the lovely commentary animated films used to do? At the end of the film, it states, “The Prince, who had searched far and wide, heard of the maiden who slept in the glass coffin.” Additionally, it shows changes in season. And finally we don’t even see a marriage between The Prince and Snow.
I love this fandom
🙌👏
So really, Anna is the only princess who tries to marry a prince right away
I am so proud of everyone who commented on this
This post is priceless. Way to go, Disnerds!
And wait, WTF. Why are the princesses the targets of derision here? Prince Phillip was ready to marry Aurora after just running into her in the forest. And then he risked his life and fought a dragon. He didn’t even know her real name, he thought she was some random peasant from the woods and he was ready to walk away from his kingdom. Why isn’t he on trial here?
Prince Charming, same thing. He’d met Snow White before, but he didn’t know she was the maiden he was looking for. He literally heard about some dead girl in the woods and was like, “I must have her for my bride.” We’re going to blame that on Snow White? She was unconscious. And aside from singing one song about him, she was kind of wrapped up in her own thing with her dwarf friends.
Jasmine didn’t even want to get married at all for like 90% of the movie. Aladdin pursued her, going so far as to completely overhaul his image to impress her.
Cinderella didn’t ever say she wanted to get married, either. Her Prince dancd with her once, then tracked her down by her shoe size. Again, he was the one who wanted to get married. She kind of just went back to her regular life with a bittersweet memory.
WTF is up with blaming princesses for the princes’ bad judgment?
And sure, we don’t see Anita and Roger dating, but there’s no reason to believe that they didn’t. The movie isn’t going to waste a third of its running time developing a relationship for two secondary characters (remember, it’s the dogs’ story first) when all we need to know is “they met, and some time later they got married.”
You can really tell who’s never experienced poverty and food insecurity when it comes to discussions around food costs and how unhealthy food is cheaper. Some fucker always comes in with the price of like… lettuce or… apples. And it’s like yeah bitch but can you work an 11 hour shift after eating some salad and an apple!?! Find me something cheaper, and more filling than the broke ass staples of boxed mac and cheese, hot dogs, noodles, bread, beans, and rice. I’ll wait.
It also ignores the mental toll that poverty takes like maybe your home made veggie filled recipe isn’t crazy expensive but it also involves prep time and cooking time and organization in terms of fresh food that a lotta poor people can’t manage.
Not to mention if you can only afford to get to the store once every couple weeks via bus or cab then you can’t keep fresh veg on deck.
But ya know.. poor people are just dumb and lazy.
People reblogging this with “actually you can do this super labour intensive prep and only buy bulk which means more money on grocery day and all this storage space you defs have when you’re poor” and it’s like……… did you read this at all
And all the “well actually” replies on this post operate from the assumption poor people haven’t thought of these things…. or don’t know any of these things or are too lazy which I mean was my original point and people just continue to prove it …..
Not to mention that it’s been well documented that food deserts are a thing – meaning that good, healthy options aren’t even available in poor neighborhoods – so how does your “well actually” solve THAT?
And the fact that poverty is often the cause of mental illness and if your days consists of nothing but struggles and pain, making a nutritious meal is just another chore to add to the list, and when your chognitive skills are limited, cooking isn’t just “cooking”.
Not saying that healthy food shouldn’t be a priority, it depends on the individual, but how many of us don’t choose something simple when we get home from work because we’re a bit tired today? Now imagine if you felt like you’re falling apart every day?
My girlfriend is bipolar, and some days the simplest tasks defeat her. Not because she’s lazy (she runs rings around me when we do yardwork), or stupid (she’s fucking brilliant), but because when the brain is sick, it affects everything. And if you can be smug about that, you should thank whatever you hold holy that you have the luxury.
“Well, I can confirm that that is Brad Pitt,” Reynolds said. “I still don’t even know how we got him for the movie. I just wrote him a letter, and explained what it was we were doing. And the sort of premise behind it was how do we, what’s the most wasteful way to use the biggest movie star in the world? And it was through a character that is largely invisible and worthless throughout the movie. And then just having him show up for eight frames of footage. And I guess Brad found that funny, we all found that funny. And he said, yes. And the next thing you know he came and shot for about seven minutes. It took him longer to drink the coffee that he requested as payment.”
Holy shit I’m crying
I’m thinking maybe Brad was up for some fun in his life around then.
