My only real and valid writing tip is that you google every word you make up for your fantasy stories. That's It
there won't be any results though because you just made it up
One time I made up a name for a character and after googling it discovered it was a Zimbabwean slur
This is why Star Wars has an in cannon genre of music known as Jizz Wailing. Jizz Wailing is the playing of music called Jizz-wail as performed by Jizz Wailers in the Star Wars universe cause Lucas decided he didn’t need to look up a word he “just made up”.
Something funny about fo2 is if your character is female you can like, dance seductively in one of the casinos for money, right? Except they never made dance animations so she just walks around and does some default animations like using an item, bending over to pick something up, etc
You can make $500 a week doing this btw
Decided to make a gif because my description really doesn’t do it justice. Also she mostly just kinda stands there
(also the animations used seem to be random, last time there weren’t any kicks and this time the ‘use item’ animation is missing)
BARBIE SPOILERS
So in the movie, they say Gloria never had a Ken doll which is a good explanation as to why Barbie doesn’t respond to Ken or the idea of having a Ken because Gloria never associated Barbie with wanting or needing one.
BUT ALSO she’s stereotypical Barbie, like a Barbie that just comes without a career or gimmick or theme. She’s like a blank canvas.
But Ken does have a theme. He’s beach Ken. If they were “paired up” where they’re automatic boyfriend/girlfriend she’d be Beach Barbie or he’d be stereotypical Ken. But we don’t know what kind of Barbie weird Barbie was before she was a weird Barbie, we just know she was the most beautiful Barbie. And she does have interest in Ken. So I think that she was Ken’s original paired Barbie.
I think that he came (I also want to know more about how Barbies and Kens arrive in Barbie Land) with a Barbie and lost her and everyone just thought that stereotypical Barbie could take her place since she’s like nonspecific and can just fill in the blanks which is why he kinda has a preexisting one-sides dynamic when he talks to Barbie, like he’s trying to recreate something he once had. I also think in the real world, this Ken is lost and maybe not being played with which is why he’s extra clingy.
But basically I think Weird Barbie and Beach Ken would make each other very happy
If they do a barbie movie sequel ( lets be honest with the state of hollywood atm they will).
They should make it an almost completely unrelated movie about Allan and Weird Barbie going on a cross country american road trip. But they only visit stupid tourists traps like the worlds biggest pistachio and no where else. In the end they return to barbie land mad make their own tourist trap. Every other tourist trap they’ve visited comically piled on top of each other.
need a uquiz like ‘is this quote from Ken of Barbie or Nandor of WWDITS?’ starting with the one that’s like ‘i stopped caring about the patriarchy as soon as i found out it has almost nothing to do with horses’

Mr. Gaiman, would it be crossing the picket line if I saw Barbie in theaters, or should I wait until the strike has been resolved?
No, it's not crossing a picket line to go and see anything. Nobody from any of the unions has asked for a boycott of anything yet.
Continuing to go see your movies, watch your shows, stream your favorites is one of the best ways to support the WGA and SAG-AFTRA right now. This content has been made, and it makes money. It helps immensely to show the studios the value of the work that writers and actors do.
If you don't go, it hurts writers and actors. Studios can say, "Well, actually, Barbie only made $X dollars, Oppenheimer only made $Y dollars, only so-many thousands of people watched Good Omens 2, obviously there isn't enough money to go around. Sadface emoji."
See the stuff you want to see with reckless abandon.
ADDITIONALLY about the strike not breaking:
the workers know that if they give up and re-negotiate their terms, they will be penalized for striking. they have to see this through, so we should support them the entire way!
there should be plushies of the strange but endearing creatures that live in medieval texts margins

during the wga/sag-aftra strike, we may see:
- film in other countries continuing as usual, but those actors/writers are NOT crossing picket lines! other countries unions often have rules where they can’t strike in solidarity with american unions.
- new indie movies separate from hollywood studios. indie movies can continue as usual too, and may even use union actors if they follow certain guidelines and/or get permission from the union.
- awards shows, although they might look different and may be postponed. if there are award shows during the strike, there’s a chance they will just be live conferences announcing winners with no celebrations attached.
- celebrities will not be promoting their work during this time— that WOULD be crossing the picket line! yes, this includes social media. they can still post on social media, as long as it doesn’t pertain to their work.
- a lot more reality tv. this happened the last time there was a writers strike, and it will certainly happen again.
- actors will also not be able to campaign for awards. this awards season is going to be a strange one.
- propaganda from hollywood. they are already trying to flip the narrative by claiming they can break the unions, but they can’t. the strikers have the power. stand with them for however long this takes!
