Carrie Fisher went out the way most women would want to: after telling the world she fucked Harrison Ford in his prime.

We're crying over Carrie Fisher because she wasn't just a movie star. She spoke her own mind when women weren't supposed to. She spoke up

Be Princess Leia in 2017.

Fight on the front lines. Strangle fascists with the chains they would have you wear. Be a motherfuckin' general.

Carrie Fisher doctored and tuned up a huge number of scripts in the 90s.
Her novels were spellbinding
She also played Princess Leia.

For so many of us, #CarrieFisher was the first gal we saw who didn't take shit onscreen or off. From all girls across the galaxy, thank you.
