Finally watched #Damsel

And it hurt me both as a #DnD player and as a storyteller at the same time

THAT DRAGON TALKS, ROLL YOUR PERSUASION CHECK

Vu Damsel et c'était pas dingue mais pas chiant non plus :blob_cat_sip:

Faut dire qu'en ce moment j'enchaîne les films indiens qui font 3h minimum donc un film Netflix de 1h30 ça passe vite :blob_coffee:

Ich habe gestern #damsel auf Netflix gesehen und rätsele noch, was die moralische Lehre aus diesem moralischen Lehrstück sein soll.

ACHTUNG SPOILER:

Millie Bobby Brown verzeiht der Drachenmutter und verzichtet auf Rache, obwohl diese Drachenmutter, getrieben von Rache, so viele junge Frauen brutal getötet hat. Da dachte ich kurz: Ah, es geht darum, dass Rache schlecht ist, vor allem unter Frauen; aber dann vernichten die beiden zusammen brutal die Königin und ihr Reich, und zwar aus Rache?

Happy #InternationalWomensDay!
I once again made a compilation of folktales for the occasion.

This time, it's tales where women save themselves. Because they DO EXIST. 😉 (cough #Damsel cough)

‘#Brown could only look forward. “I couldn’t draw from anything because I’ve personally never read a story like #Damsel,” she said.’

Apparently, a lack of reading will land you a #Netflix contract. Good to know.

(Tip of the hat to @TarkabarkaHolgy for bringing the film to my attention.)

Proving the point of the previous toot, here is last year's list I made, about women in folktales who slay monsters.
Because THEY EXIST. Lots of them.

Something about the hype around #Damsel just rubs me the wrong way. The whole "this is no fairy tale" spin is annoying. Have you ever read more than two fairy tales in your life? I can list you hundreds of traditional stories where women kill monsters and save themselves. Seriously.

Quit shitting on folklore without knowing it.

Also, I recently heard the term "add a sword feminism" and it is very accurate.
