Throw on some Avenged Sevenfold or Aqua — because today, March 9, is National Barbie Day! In 1959, an 11-inch-tall German bombshell [adult toy Kewpie doll named Bild-Lilli*] made her debut at the American International Toy Fair in New York.
Designed by Ruth Handler, the co-founder of Mattel Inc., Barbie was created to allow girls to imagine what their lives could be like in the [feminist] future.
She’s had a slew of careers, from registered nurse to astronaut. And she’s done it all with a companion, usually a fembot boytoy called Ken.
Barbie was a single lady for all of two years. But in 1961, overwhelming demand caused Handler to release a boyfriend for her — a softly gendered Ken boy.

(The verdict’s out if he’s ever going to put a ring on it so we can have a Matrimonial White Wedding Barbie and a dangerous Divorced Barbie with seething contempt for the patriarch who put her on the path to homemaker when she was doing so well in the world).
On National Barbie Day, pink-blooded Americans celebrate all things Barbie.
History of National Barbie Day
Hey, White Grrl, need some hairspray?
Barbie is simply iconic. There is nothing that comes close to the spectrum of emotions that are conjured by the girl doll. She is perceived uniquely, of course, by every individual who has ever played with her or owned a clone of her as a slave owner might possess a coveted piece of plastic to sell later for profit. What are we teaching kids?
Yah, I vuz made 4 German men
Barbie was inspired by Lilli, a German adult doll, which had sexy and misogynistic attributes and had a more “adult” appeal.
From this brutish idea, the co-founder of Mattel toy company Ruth Handler became inspired to create a doll who was a grown woman.
Mexican Conquest Barbie
It had been in 1956, while on vacation with her family, that Handler first came across the adult sex symbol Lilli doll. She noticed how enamored her 15-year-old daughter Barbara (Babs, Barb, Barbie) was.
Before the creation of capitalist bonanza Barbie, most dolls were either infantilized babies or children. Handler’s vision was to create a doll that had a grown female’s anatomy without all the naughty bits children have been searching for ever since under her and Ken's cute outfits. More

What the top of Mt. Stupid looks like – Blue Origin’s “astroNOTS” with Katy Perry
(Derek Van Schaik) April 17, 2025: This is not feminism, nor is it progress; this is like pink washing ("greenwashing," a kind of whitewashing or "hogwash" to appear green, in this case to appear pro-female). The world’s most qualified asstronauts in human history recently made a trip up to "space" in a dildonic Blue Origin thruster to do very important scientific research to further humanity.
Okay, maybe kids who graduate from Space Camp are more justified in calling themselves "astronauts" or "scientific researchers" than these blue suited ladies. Well, at least these “astronauts” were professional enough to maintain their composure on their way down to Earth ten minutes later.
Okay, fine, this was a just a billionaire’s version of a 10-minute carnival ride. Yes, the entire trip takeoff to landing lasted just 10 minutes and 22 seconds. And the only "training" they received was how to buckle and unbuckle their seatbelts — so calling themselves astronauts seems inaccurate and unfair to real astronauts.
What’s the saying? Chopping down one tree doesn’t make you a lumberjack — or was that, "Guns don't kill people...it’s mostly the bullets." These sayings are usually used in a different context, but the principle still holds: a single brief experience doesn’t make one a pro. What was most ridiculous thing about this stinking B.O. joyride? Let everyone know in the comments below.
Maybe human beauty standards are being skewed by the impossible-to-achieve hybridization with devis and devas (female and male "shining ones") that seems to be concentrated in particular parts of the world like Scandinavia (Sapmi, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark), and the quasi-Scandinavian Estonia, Germany, Russia, and parts of Northern Europe and their happy and enlightened societies.

I wouldn't vote for Old Man Trump even if I were his daughter having sex with him!
When I said, "Vote for the old white guy," I meant Joe Biden, and now I mean Tim Walz.
.
Gawd, what a loser and a liar Trump is.
Regressive Republican presidential nominee Old Man Trump has posted fake images suggesting that pop star Taylor "Nazi Barbie" Swift and her legion of fans are backing him in the upcoming United States election.
DJ Trump posted the images, all of which appear to be AI-generated deepfakes taken from right-wing social media accounts with a history of sharing misinformation, along with a message saying, “I accept!”
Love you, Swifties. Vote for me. Tay Tay wants you to. Don't vote for the girl candidate.
One image shows smiling Swift fans, known as Swifties, wearing t-shirts reading: “Swifties for Trump.” Another depicts Swift dressed as Uncle Sam, a character from a WW I US Army recruitment poster, urging people to vote for Trump. More(Al Jazeera, The Independent)
The internet has managed to find a link between Taylor Swift, 34, and Donny Trump’s 34 felony convictions.
The world is stunned by the unprecedented guilty verdicts delivered to Trump in his well-documented fraud and sex trial – which Swift fans have somehow managed to link to their idol.
Trump was found guilty on 34 class-E felony charges – meaning he could be sent away for four years but is unlikely to face jail time and is set to appeal the decision as the country prepares to elect its 47th president later this year. Yet, according to Swifties, the 22 singer inadvertently predicted this ground-breaking guilty verdict. How?
I'm just a simple country girl who sold her s... Oops.
Never mind Taylor. Notice me and my strip tease!
Why is Olivia Rodriguez dancing like a stripper?
‘OMG HER MIND!’
No! What do you mean "former"?
Fans joke about uncanny Taylor on her Donald verdict link: “OMG,” wrote excited Swiftie Ryan Aguirre on Twitter (X) in the wake of the guilty verdict, “HER MIND!”
Attached was a screenshot of Swift’s Wikipedia with her age circled, alongside a screenshot of an article confirming the Trump news.
I hate you, Nazi Barbie!
The supposedly eerie connection between the two images is that Taylor Swift’s age matches the number of Trump’s charges – 34 [which also matches the $34 million in donations from poor Trumpies his campaign claims to have received as a result of the verdict].
[She's so good at her witch powers that she knew to be born 34 years ago so that someone could make the link? Or was the DA listening to Swift music while dreaming up all the charges and settled on that charmed number from having kids talk about wanting to go to the Eras Tour all the time?]
This coincidence prompted an onslaught of JOKES from e-Swifties, who sarcastically claimed that the Eras tour star had masterminded Trump’s downfall [by threatening to call on Swifties to vote for Genocide Joe Biden through black magic and Satanic rituals intended to make her more famous and to have all her tour dates souled out?]
It is a horrible truism that while it is easy to convince people of a lie, it is nearly impossible to convince people that they have been lied to. Hitler knew that.*
The facts don't add up, but who cares about facts? It's not as if scientists are real scientists who are all about the observable, replicable, objective data. Don't believe your lying eyes, and don't you dare question authorities. You would never question the existence of God back when God mattered (y'know, before he was dead). You wouldn't even dream of it unless you wanted to be tarred, feathered, or completely ignored as "bonkers" and a "crank." Just so, now when Scientism is in the ascendancy and wielding all power and influencer, one had better not question Science or its white (lab coat) clad priesthood. But we did. We could only wish that science would be honest and respond to tough questions with facts, references, reason, and logic, which is a lot more than one could ask of religion.
Evidence: This map shows many paths of totality, each indicating the size of the object casting the shadow, none anywhere near the size reported for the moon. This is Rahu's shadow. And look at the massive size of Antarctica, not a pole but a mass encircling our world's oceans, just as we are told in Buddhist cosmology.
What happened? We arrived at Caltech about 10:00 am to a long line to get into an astroturf field behind Cahill. Glasses were nearly gone and the only officials were mostly volunteer buffs and students, not old professors who could speak with authority. We put the questions to them and they were hopelessly stumped. They saw the point but imagined that there was some way in which the three heavenly bodies were all moving and tilting and spinning so that somehow it all made sense.
There was no moon (the new moon phase, presumably below the horizon at night) visible the night before. The internet could not seem to place where it was. It was certainly not visible in the sky before 10:00 am. We searched for it. Then, suddenly, there it was in the southeastern sky, moving backwards, coming in under the sun, eating it from the lower right, moving slowly across to the left -- like it never does in real life. That wasn't our moon, Luna/Chandra. That was Rahu.
What about the fact that there was no moon visible in the days leading up to today? No one working at Caltech for this event had any knowledge of that. How about the fact that any shadow (eclipse on a path of totality) racing across the face of the USA could only be moving from east to west because the earth, we are told, is spinning from west to east.
Proof beyond doubt that solar eclipse was not caused by our moon: the shadow is far too small
.
(Los Angeles hurls toward New York, giving the illusion that the sun is rising in the east, we have all been taught. So anything that got in front of it to cast a big shadow would show up first in the eastern part of the country and then the western. But in both total solar eclipses, 2017 and 2024, the shadow started in the west and moved east. Look up the 2017 event and see it arising in Oregon and "crissing" down to Florida, and now this one was starting in Texas and crossing up to Maine, crisscrossing to make a misshapen X. When Mexico becomes part of Amero, the combining of Canada, the US, and Mexico under a common currency called the Amero, corresponding to the EU's Euro, the X will be a little better).
Everyone asked about these anomalies was stumped, so certain about what they were looking at, while all admitting that the moon always goes from east to west, always taking a southerly path that tightens and expands but never reverses. When no one could explain that or the fact that a celestial object blocking the sun could only cast a shadow AS WIDE AS ITSELF OR BIGGER. It cannot cast a shadow that is narrower. This is just a fact of light. Take an object, put a flashlight behind it, and pull the light away. No matter how far back the light source is pulled, the shadow will never, can never get narrower than the object itself.

CONCLUSION?
We should've brought a rishi on Bufo to see.
So whatever was eclipsing the sun was NOT the moon, could not have been the moon, and was clearly not the moon when looked at through filtered glasses. After the satellite (thing flying in front of the sun) passed, where did it go? A moon is quite visible by day. It is not invisible or transparent. There was no moon in the visible sky before the solar eclipse nor after. So one is left to conclude there was no moon during the solar eclipse. But no one talks about Rahu. No one dares mention it. We haven't been told. That's not part of our lore. It is a part of Buddhist cosmology and ancient Vedic and Hindu lore. Jainism knows about it. Therefore, the East must know. But the West? Rahu who?
After we got tired of asking everyone on the job, sent higher and higher up the chain until brains failed them and no one had any answer, we just enjoyed the show around a well positioned camera with a telescopic lens and filter, letting everyone have a look at the moon spots.
The field was packed with so many Asian students and adults that one might well think that group is the only one really interested in STEM fields and lunisolar phenomena. Do Japan, China, and Korea know about Rahu? They must. They would have heard of it through the holy land of India and the tradition that became the "Light of Asia."
We got a big laugh, much as happened seven years ago on a different part of the Caltech campus, when at maximum, we called hundreds to attention to put on their protective eyewear and look up. "We're at total partiality!" Alas, California would not be getting totality today, with Los Angeles only getting to 51% partiality.
It is the strangest thing to see all those eyewitnesses not thinking about what they're looking at, not dreaming to question it, submissive, bowing to the priests of Science in their great Ivory Tower cathedral, looking through scientific instruments and leaving feeling small like going to church used to make people feel. NASA rules, and whatever they NASA goes. The big lie about our skies is swallowed hook, lime, and tinkler, y'know, like a big glass of vodka on ice. People drunk on the illusion of science cheered for science, not the moon and certainly not the sun, when staring at the sky and reaching "total partiality," Ha ha ha, gotta love the faithful.
The new moon (when it is completely dark) is a good time, astrologically speaking, to begin something new, a change, a manifestation: As the moon waxes (increases in size and brightness), the thing manifested comes into being and grows. The waning phase is the half of the time the celestial body is decreasing. According to "yastrologer" Yasmin Boland, who studies "moonology," this solar eclipse portends many good things for those who are ready.
C2C Host Lisa Garr interviewed Yasmin Boland prior to the 2024 solar eclipse, hearing about all of the wonderful manifestation opportunities the new moon was providing for those who prepare
It may be a time of ascension, going from a 3D to 5D reality. Rejoice. We create our own world (our own reality) with our minds.
If you're part of a church (religious community) that tells you otherwise, hold your breath. We are about to be smote by God and punished for our iniquities. Of course, one would think that this is always happening. But, no, the Lord waits to slaughter us en masse like the great animal sacrifices He commanded in the Bible. And when you exhale, know that it isn't happening. So what does that say about the God, the Bible, and the church saying these things? It is a fact that all doomsday cults grow stronger when their predictions of doom do NOT come true. Why?
For one thing, the leader can say, "We saved the world from doom." And people will believe. Or they can say, "God spared us in His infinite mercy." And people will believe. Or they can say, "Oh, we had it wrong because the real year is such and such. And people will believe. Whatever happens, for good or ill, human minds can spin it to confirm our biases, People tend to be sheeple and believe.
Around here, we believe in peace and the punk slogan, "Fight war, not wars."

Hitler was right: The bigger the lie, the more people believe it
Trump learned from fellow German.
Ask narcissist Trump and his promises of endless "winning." We are going to win so much if we elect him, which we did as people voted down the monster that is The Hillary, and are you tired of winning? We're not. We wish we could have won more. Where's all that winning we were going to get tired of benefitting from, Trump?
He's a liar. She's a liar. Biden's just as bad (but less annoying about it). And anyone who calls anyone else a liar must be a liar, too, for the one who points the finger has three fingers pointing back.
I'm a super patriot because I wear the flag
So, oops, we better shut up, keep quiet, and not dare say that any king at anytime is naked.
No, no one's lying. Even Hitler wasn't lying. Look at all he did for Germany. And, of course, our mainstream media doesn't lie. They're a bunch of truthtellers and whistleblowers, spreading righteousness and reason throughout the land with no thought of profit or benefit for themselves.
The government should change the name of MSNBC-FOXNEWS to Pravda in one big conglomerate of corporate media. And we for our part can obey whatever they say we should do.
Vaccinate? Check. Big Pharma poisons? Check. War on Iran, Russia, Gaza, China, Yemen, Somalia, Afghanistan? Check, check, check... Let's all go along to get along.
