It’s important to recognise that Barbie (2023) criticises both the patriarchy AND the matriarchy. Yes, the Ken’s are just accessories to the Barbies. Yes, they don’t have any say in the government they live under. That’s the point, you’re supposed to feel awful, you’re supposed to want the Kens to have their own agency, you’re supposed to want equality. The Barbie movie explicitly states that the way Barbie treats Ken is wrong, so much so that once he finds a safe space for his masculinity and individual identity he’s so excited to share it with the other Kens.
But they go overboard and replace a matriarchy with a patriarchy and now the same issue exists but in reverse. That’s the POINT!! THATS THE POINT!!! Barbie is not anti-men it’s pro equality PLEASE understand this

for a while there i was sympathetic to tumblr because of how much they’re in debt; i was kind of like “well of course they’re absolutely desperate for new users, they literally need the money or else tumblr goes down forever”. and then suddenly today it hit me that there’s actually no fucking reason for that debt to be causing these ui changes? the userbase has been INCREDIBLY clear about what they want from tumblr over the years, not to mention clear about the fact that even twitter people don’t need this place to look like twitter. it actually would be very… EASY? for them to just make changes in a direction people would actually be HAPPY with?
for fuck’s sake there were people trying to organize a “crab day” for tumblr despite tumblr doing nothing but telling us to go fuck ourselves for months on end. there were people spending hundreds of dollars on check marks just for the glee of MAKING FUN of twitter. can you IMAGINE how much money this userbase would donate to tumblr if they actually made ui updates geared toward what people have been asking for?
if tumblr actually crowdsourced ideas or even just LISTENED to their userbase it may have been possible for them to make way more money than they’re begging for now, they just insist on trying to drive their actual demographic and loyal userbase out for literally no reason

this post is a year and a half old and it's literally so funny to me. im aromantic now.
With comments, it can sometimes be hard to know what to say, but as an author who adores every comment I’ve ever received, I can confirm how much it means to writers, and I’m so happy @justleaveacommentfest is encouraging people to write even more of them! If you still feel lost, here are some things to try:
- A string of emojis. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ is a perfectly valid comment!
- HMHHKJJFGJD THIS IS AMAZING/INCREDIBLE/WHATEVER NICE WORDS YOU HAVE TO SAY
- "AO3 wont let me leave more kudos so here are more: ❤️❤️❤️❤️"
- (incoherent excited screaming)
- Pick the part of the story that made you feel the strongest emotions. Let them know how absolutely adorable it was to see the characters holding hands, or how you nearly burst into tears on public transport while reading their fic and are thankful for it
- "Reread!" comments! Let them know this is the second, third, fourth, or millionth time you've come back to reread their fic! It brings an extra level of joy to authors to know that their fics are worth reading not once, but twice, or even more!
- Quote a favorite line and tell them how it made you laugh/cry/stare at your screen in awe and then reread the same line three times on account of its brilliance.
- Literally any other compliment you can think of
- Any combination of or all of the above!
So yes. Smash your face into the keyboard, highlight a favorite moment, or tell them it's 4 am in your timezone but you absolutely could not stop reading because it was so good. It means the world to hear positive feedback from readers, and it's encouragement for authors to share more works in the future!
self proclaimed schizoposter nervously typing '911' into their phone and hovering their thumb above the 'call' key as they hawkishly watch a disheveled guy at a bus stop make repetitive movements and ramble to himself
You know what lemme just come back to this post because I (physically disabled, joint pain, cane user) was on a full train last night with the biggest heaviest backpack you could imagine bcs I’ve just become homeless and I was on my way to a friends house. I tried to ask people for a seat and got flat out ignored. Nobody would even look at me. It got to a point where I was literally shaking crying sobbing dry heaving resorting to begging “I’m really sorry everyone but can someone please give me their seat I have joint problems I’m in a lot of pain”, speaking to people directly “excuse me but you’re in priority seating and I’m disabled and I really need to sit down” and the only person in the whole train who would even LOOK at me while I was wheezing and clutching my stomach and sweating about to pass out in some of the most rancid pain I’ve ever felt in my life. was an old disheveled guy with a tic who was mumbling to himself. and he quietly tried to console me and convinced me to just sit on someone’s suitcase. I hope all the unnatural hair coloured pierced 20 somethings on that train that night ESPECIALLY never know peace for the rest of their fucking lives
You seriously can’t call yourself a leftist or a progressive or whatever if you can’t treat other people like actual human beings. I’ve had disheveled people who a lot of ppl would assume are homeless, be quicker to offer me a place to sit on a train than 20 somethings with unnatural hair color and “Be Gay do Crime” pins and stickers do that (esp when I injured my ankle coming back from work nobody except a mumbling elderly lady offered me their seat). They’re also not the ones who threaten to call cops on me when I’m taking foodstuffs from grocery stores! You can post about anarchy and being progressive and unhinged all you want but the fact that you would treat people who are physically disabled and in poverty this way makes you just as an awful person as anybody else
saw a tik tok a few days ago that was like “gen z and young millennials want to fight for systemic change but don’t want to do the work on an individual level and like won’t even be nice to strangers because they ‘don’t owe anyone anything’” and it’s just so fucking true. we can’t demand systemic change if we can’t even be decent to the people we claim to fight for when we see them face to face.
When we finished the work on our union hall (ADA bathroom, new floors, widened the meeting room, refinished all the walls etc) you better believe we opened the doors to every unhoused person who needed a safe place to use the toilet without being harassed. The union keeps petty cash on hand for anyone who needs a bite to eat or bus fare. No questions asked. Now we also keep a stack of signed doctor's excuses for any worker who needs one to call in sick, thanks to our local wobbly physician. Yeah, sometimes there are sketchy people who hang around. They have names and stories and deserve dignity and compassion same as everyone. Also, most of us, you included probably, are literally one bad month away from being one of those unhoused people.
the fact that big systemic problems will generally not be solved by individual actions does not absolve you of the responsibility to be decent to people in your day-to-day life. you can’t fix all the world’s problems on your own but you can sure as hell make one day of one person’s life a lot better or a lot worse with your actions.
Barry! We're Barry! We're just Barry, Barry! And the Barrys are gone, and there's been too many Barrys fighting Barrys! We're Barry! It doesn't matter if I'm Barry Nyne, or you're Barry Nyne, or I'm Barry Syx or you're Barry Syx! Barry didn't do this. Barry didn't kill the Barrys. What we should be happy about is that there's Barrys here now! Because they're used to just be Barry. There were Barrys, and then there was Barry, and now there's Barrys again, Barry.

I feel so lucky to be able to experience Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) in this moment. The soundtrack to our youth somehow made new and shiny and infinitely better. The production, the vocals, the instruments, the intricate differences… its magical, and you can tell it was made with love. I’m so proud of Taylor for claiming back the castle she worked so hard to build, brick by brick. Thank you for bringing back to life an album that changed so many of our lives. I hope it brings you infinite peace and pride. We love you Taylor 💜
