तुमको अब तक क्यों अपनी पहचान नहीं है?

Conoces mi pasado y lo que hicieron conmigo, así que dime chico, ¿qué me asegura que contigo será diferente?
No fue hasta que salí de mi ensoñación que me di cuenta de todo el daño que me habías hecho, y de cómo fui estúpida al creer que tú eras diferente al resto. Lo peor de todo, es que sé que no te responsabilizarás de tus malas acciones y que mucho menos me pedirás perdón, por lo tanto, sé que tendré que que sanar mis heridas por mi cuenta, sin esperar absolutamente nada de ti.

The marketing/creative directors of the barbie movie are brilliant. Never in my life I experienced such a complex phenomenon in pop culture. Holy shit. The reason why it’s being so successful is obviously because of the way the whole thing pierces right through our affective memory.
I remember I was six and completely obsessed with everything barbie. I wanted her clothes, her multiple careers, her glamour, her merch, her pink innocent world. If that was what adulthood would look like, it looked bright! My first barbie was hollywood barbie, back in 2000. For a while i wanted to be an actress just like her.
My dream barbie outfit was a denim jacket and a matching denim skirt with pink embroidery and sneakers. I was thrilled when my mother got me that outfit at c&a.
Barbie reminds me of simpler times. I could dissociate and create whatever world I would deem fit for barbie and I to live in.
Then I grew up. I found cooler dolls (at least I thought they were. Back then Barbie dolls fell out of fashion for being considered shallow). But so many years later, I remembered the importance barbid had in my life. It was my first adult doll. An adult doll that could drive, be successful and independent. And pretty! I didn’t have to choose one or the other.
And now I am an adult. I can buy the barbies I want. I can dress as a barbie and go to the movie premiere. With my friends! All paid with my money. Little me would jump in ecstasy. And now I can wear makeup. I can order a big bucket of popcorn all for myself. I can even write cultural studies essays about this whole phenomenon. God!
The movie gives me the opportunity to heal my inner child. And it reminds me that I’ve made it into adulthood. After so many hardships.
If we have to live in a capitalist society, at least make it pink . Am I right
On top of this amazing solidarity of workers and creatives against corporate greed, the strike is actually the BEST because oh my god I can finally catch up on all the tv and movies I’ve been meaning to watch without the stress of a thousand new things being promoted all the time.
So excited for people to start re-engaging with great films and art of previous decades!
….idk sometimes I wanna travel back in time to 2013 and grab myself and shake her like: in just ten years, after the plague has wreacked havoc, the Bad Guys ™ will try to use developments in artificial intelligence to threaten the world’s creatives into economic submission
