Yeah to me this is the ultimate gotcha about the song, if you think it’s all about you, you’ve proven your ego, you only got a verse, Mr. Beatty (who did think the song was all about him).

Honestly, the movie didn’t get enough credit when it was released. I love the energy of taking militaristic source material and turning it into a satire. I’m glad the movie is getting re-examined in recent years.

Reply to First female chief in Malawi, South Africa ends child marriage by messyredemptions

Theresa Kachindamoto is an incredible woman. On top of ending child marriages, she’s been working to get all those kids back in school. I remember when I first read about her push to end child marriages, and I’m very glad to read about how she pushed to make sure they did actually end, and pushed to make sure people couldn’t carry on the practice unofficially. She and the people under her have annulled over 3,500 child marriages. What an amazing woman.
