Gente,

Vamos falar a verdade,

Pra mim...

Nem Barbie, nem Oppenheimer...

Nenhum dos dois me impressionou até agora não...

Só o Ken hihihi,

Nem ao menos fui vê algum deles...

Esse Ken Donflamingo tá incrível kkkkkk

My Roman Empire will forever be that I’m just Ken SHOULD HAVE WON THAT OSCAR

After watching Ted Nivison's Barbie lore video i took a deep dive into it at 1am and here's my conclusion:

There was a Barbie clone society hiding within the world, with one "main Barbie" at any given time, who in one generation secretly owned Mattel, stopped being a clone, and in a future generation saved the universe thus ascending into godhood. Let me explain further. For over 500 years there has been one main Barbie that has been cloned over and over again until “perfection”. When she is young she is a Chelsea, then Skipper, Stacy, then a full-fledged Barbie. If a clone fails to become a proper Barbie then you are “removed” as seen with Kelly. When she ages past "Barbie" she then becomes either an aunt, mom, or grandma Roberts aiding future generations of Barbies. There are also Kens, also clones but they are rougher models and are more there as a kind of love interest for new Barbies during this time. 

If we start the timeline from Barbie vlogs, we see this generation's "main Barbie" whose life and career we witness in most of the movies and shows, aided by other Barbie clones. Not only that but in every movie she stars in there is a lesson, thus aiding other Barbies striving for “Barbie perfection” aka enlightenment. As she grows in stardom, she ends up with enough money to start her own business, Mattel. With all the money the Barbie clone hivemind had made over the past 500+ years, they moved outside of normal society thus creating "Barbie land". Not only do they move to this new "Barbie land”, but they remove all Barbie clones that can't be used as inspiration for mass-produced toys the main Barbie sells under Mattel, and effectively become "dolls" themselves. This allows for Kens to grow from rougher models to dolls as well, thus getting more diversity in all dolls. It also sets the stage for any of the Barbie movies where she is a doll in them, thus telling the life of the next generation's "Barbie", who (like she was when she was a mass clone hivemind) had every job known to man at some point in time. Thus we can understand how there is a town in which every movie or show in which she is a doll then has an explanation for its cursed existence. 

In the live-action Barbie, we then see the previous generation's "Barbie" now older, as the original creator of Mattel. Yes, the Barbie hivemind became a doll society that fuels capitalism, keep up. Not only that but we see "stereotypical Barbie" played by Margot Robbie, who is the doll Barbie we see in previous shows and movies who chooses to become real in the end. She doesn't continue the clone line, not knowing it ever existed, thus Mattel passing on separate from this universe's "main Barbie" but still making “Barbie” products and pushing the idea of “Barbie perfection” for this and future generations of Barbie to see. 

Several generations later we get to the furthest in the future's Barbie with the movie Barbie Starlight Adventure with space and star-dying stuff. We can see in this movie that even though this generation's Barbie is far past the clone hive-mind Barbie in time the generations of knowledge still pass on through Mattel as she can USE THE FORCE. Then she STOPS THE HEAT DEATH OF THE UNIVERSE, REMAKES THE WORLD IN THE BARBIE IMAGE AS HER HIVE MIND FOREMOTHERS SOUGHT TO, THUS HITTING BARBIE PERFECTION, REACHING NIRVANA, AND ASCENDING TO GODHOOD.

Oh, also mermaids, pegasus, pegaponies (very distinctly different from pegasus), and several forms of fairies canonically exist in the "Barbie Cinematic Universe". There’s also a separate possible dimension fairies live called Gloss Angeles too that exists within the BCU.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk (which is how Ted should have ended the video)

So, I know I am late to the party, but I just watched Barbie and holy shit! Phenomenal! All the praise, all the awards. Entertaining and engaging and painfully real and funny, but also not, ya know? Wow, blown away!

I love “What Was I Made For?” but “I’m Just Ken” is a terrific song and should be winning Best Song at all these film awards ceremonies. The Best Song category has become mostly superfluous, as winning songs are often an afterthought to film they are attached to, used to play over opening or closing credits, acting like a well produced piece of PR for the film.

“I’m Just Ken” is well written, impeccably performed & staged within the framework of the film, and deeply important part of a character’s development.

It would have been so funny if Barbie failed the bechdel test

commission i did for @/katsuma (on ao3) and @wingsaloof for their fic step out of your bubble (now completed!!!! so go read it now now now!!!)

and happy holidays!!!! 🫶🥹

Barbie is Gay, Mean Girls is Gay!!!

Such a good arc for him to go from being a jerk to emphasizing with Shoeless Jorbie

My attempt to create Ken

I thought about the theory that the CEO of Mattel may have had, or has, a daughter. Looking at his behavior and desire to make little girls happy in the least creepy way, I thought about this theory. What do you think?
