do you have a favorite barbie knockoff/competitor?
Every time he goes to a toy store or sees a non-Barbie fashion doll, my husband sends them to me and says “look, Barbie”.
My favourite of the recent ones is Steffi Love.
Not to be confused with Steffie, the discontinued Barbie character from the 1970s. I specify this not because I think Steffie herself is a household name, but because when you search for Barbies you will still find plenty of dolls released with the Steffie head sculpt.
Steffi Love, though, was created by Simba Toys, and the Steffi line seems to consist of Steffi herself, her boyfriend “Cool Kevin”, and the toddler and baby.
What really struck me though is the outright similarity to a particular Barbie line.
Literally both the pregnant Steffi and the pregnant Midge are called “Happy Family”.
There’s a lot of Steffi dolls that retread very similar area to Barbies, but I also want to note that the Baby Doctor Steffi is wearing a face mask and I think that’s pretty cool.

Ok rant because I need to scream about it.
So, I sometimes watch the Circle game on Netflix, because yes, it's a bit terrible, but it's fun, and I like to see people interacting together, especially as they often end up sharing personal things and supporting each other which I love to see. Plus, there are often really cool people that I like to see in media and that I like to see sharing their experiences, like queer people or people with ADHD.
So I was quite happy to see there was a new season, especially as I'm not that ok right now, and it's often something I like to watch when I'm feeling a bit down, as it doesn't need a lot of focus and can take my mind off of things easily.
But then I see they put a fucking AI in the game. So it's already bad, fuck AI, I don't want it in my games, I don't want it anywhere, the WHOLE POINT of this game is to see people interact together not to see how an AI perform as a human. But I'm there like ok I like this game, so let's just give it a shot, maybe it won't be too much of a deal.
But then, of course, they make a big twist about it, so players starts to analyse everyone's behaviour to see who could be the AI. And a lot of them thinks about Steffi, because she is kinda flat in her speech, and uses a lot of complex words that of course no one uses in real life, her jokes are bad. Plus she knows a lot about that one topic, like how can she knows about horoscopes right away? Like? It's her job? And people can know things? And she is into horoscopes, but also did well on the rap battle? Like people can do and like several things?
But yeah, the speech thing (and especially the complex vocabulary part) really really threw me off, especially because all of it are bascially autistic traits, like the complex vocabulary and stuff. Like of course this was going to happen, why no one in the production thought about that? So yeah, I'm really upset about this right now, and kinda sad as well, and the idea of some autistic traits being considered as not so human, and this being portrayed on popular media like this make my really mad, and I'm not really ok right now.
(And to be clear, I don't think Steffi is autistic, she is a real person, I'm not saying anything about her, I'm just talking about how autistics traits can be perceveied in media.)
So yeah, really upset now, and I'm kinda annoyed, because I like this show usually, and I like some of the contestants a lot for now (like Brandon and QT I love them), but I'm not sure I'll be able to keep watching it now, and it makes me sad.
