Mary Poppins had to be practically perfect in every way, but all Burt had to do to earn his equivalent verse in Jolly Holiday was to not be rapey.
Y'all marked my package as unable to be delivered because the business was closed. I don't live at a business. It's an apartment. I want assistance because if they couldn't deliver it today while I was home all day, I have serious doubts that they'll get it right tomorrow.
@FedEx Can I get some customer service help please? The chat bot on the website can't understand my question, and the automated phone number is useless.
The sheer number of times that Jo is called ugly, perverse, odd, bad, etc because sheโs clearly either gay or trans is utterly infuriating. Iโm over here ready to fight everyone that ever lived 160 years ago. ๐คฎ
Iโm making my way through little women for the first time, and itโs honestly such a mixed bag. I love following fun characters and seeing all their little successes, but deeply detest how absolutely stifling 1860s society was to women.

And most people Iโve been around who just donโt even question things or look into trying to fix them have been neurotypical.
So, yeah, this commentary is definitely skewed by personal experience. But I still gotta wonder how the world goes round this way.
