I’m not saying that people should like Good People TM but I am saying that the fact that a character is Good And Nice and Sincere does not make that character necessarily boring and that Good and Nice and Sincere People can have as much conflict going on with them as say Fierce Survivalist or Morally Grey Person and you don’t have to justify your love for a character by turning them into a sociopath or something!!!

 #THE ACT OF BEING GOOD IN AN OF ITSELF CAN BE CONFLICT#THINK: BEING TEMPTED BY SOMETHING ADVANTAGEOUS BUT AGAINST ONE’S MORAL CODE #THINK: BEING FORCED TO BE WORKING WITH SOMEONE WHO IF YOU HAD YOUR WAY YOU WOULD AVOID AT ALL COSTS#BUT INSTEAD YOU SMILE AND TRY YOUR HARDEST TO THINK THE BEST OF THEM AND FIND THEIR POSITIVE QUALITIES #THINK: BEING CONSTANTLY BELITTLED FOR BEING KIND WHEN KINDNESS IS YOUR CHOICE #BEING A KIND SINCERE GOOD PERSON IS NOT EASY OR SIMPLE#IT IS AN ACTIVE CHOICE THAT CAN GO AGAINST ONE’S BEST SELF INTERESTS #AND IN A WORLD WHERE SELF INTEREST IS REWARDED #IT CAN GET REALLY HARD #I JUST #I’M TIRED OF NICE PEOPLE BEING PUSHED DOWN AS UNINTERESTING BORING OR NOT NARRATIVELY NECESSARY #THE WORLD IS FULL OF NASTY PEOPLE BUT NASTY PEOPLE ARE MOST INTERESTING WHEN THEY HAVE SOMEONE TO BE CONTRASTED TO #YOUR GRITTY STORY COULD BE GRITTER IF YOU HAD FLAWED INTERESTING BUT GOOD PEOPLE IN IT

Timely reminder that Jennifer Lawrence catapulted to fame on the backs of Brown girls who could’ve played Katniss because LOL it’s just a tan and some bronzer

friendly reminder that she also catapulted to fame on the backs of people with mental illnesses and disorders in some wack ass sensationalised joke of a movie whose screenplay is by a transmisogynistic abuser

jennifer lawrence is gonna win best actress and in her speech she’ll say something really “quirky” or something about food and there will be 60 different gifsets of it on my dash for at least an hour

jennifer lawrence makes a joke about being hungry. the internet begins to shake with the millions of people uploading gifs of the moment. laughter fills the world from teenagers laughing at how awkward she is because of her outburst

tw: molestation

psa

david o. russell (director of silver linings playbook) molested his transgender niece

and then he said, in defense, that she “is always causing drama since the transgender transformation and has become very provocative and seductive.”

david russell is a molester and a cissexist/ transmisogynistic asshole
