Pokémon [b][c] is a Japanese media franchise consisting of video games, animated series and films, a trading card game, and other related media. The franchise takes place in a shared universe in which humans co-exist with the eponymous creatures, a large variety of species which have special powers.
The franchise's primary target audience was children aged 5 to 12 [4], but it is known to attract mostly geeky adults and kids of all ages [I].
Pokémon is estimated to be the world's highest-grossing media franchise, with the video games in particular being among the best-selling. The franchise originated as a pair of role-playing games developed by Game Freak, from an original concept by its founder, Satoshi Tajiri. More

*Sarcasm* Who does this patriarchal, sexist, misogynist, capitalist, female-exploiting, dominating, degrading male chauvinist p*g Hefner think he is making sense and being well-spoken?
Bark like a d*g, you S.O.B! How dare come on The Dick Cavett Show prepared with that smug confidence of knowing all the right things to say and actually making a few good points when we all know what you've done! Dick, are you going to let him answer like that?!
You've set women back centuries, not to mention the poor girls and ladies of the world to everyone exposed to your smut gateway magazine that opened the floodgates to an avalanche of pornographies and filth. Filth, I say!
Wives or "playmates," Hef? - Wives. - Oh nice!
You should be, you should be...well, I don't what you should be! Who am I to should all over you? You're as much a symptom as a cause of our moral decay. Only a Republican pedophile like Mr. Trump could restore us and MakeAmericaGreatAgain for the first time after that Democrat pedo Mr. Biden nearly ruined this nation!
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.
Jane Goodall Barbie and Bobo
(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

Sex robots or "sexbots" are anthropomorphic [human-like] robotic sex dolls that have human-like movements or behaviors and some degree of artificial intelligence [1][2].
As of 2025, although elaborately instrumented sex dolls have been created by a number of inventors, no fully animated sex robots yet exist.
Simple devices have been created which can speak, make facial expressions, or respond to touch [3][4] and even carry babies to term if they get pregnant.
I blame myself...and Hollywood
There is controversy as to whether developing them would be morally justifiable [5][6].
In 2015, robot ethicist Kathleen Richardson called for a ban on the creation of anthropomorphic sex robots with concerns about normalizing relationships with machines and reinforcing female dehumanization [7][8][9].
Questions about their ethics, effects, and possible legal regulations have been discussed since then.

Human people [as distinct from the nonhuman people/AI robots will one day no doubt be referred to] who are sexually attracted to sexbots are sometimes referred to as digisexuals [10] or robosexuals [11][12].
A person in "love" with a purchased vibrating phallic device is just called a nymphomaniac by the medical profession and a horndog or slamhound in the vernacular.
Sexbots with a male shape design may be referred to as malebots [13] or manbots [14]. Gender neutral terms for sex robots include pleasure bot [15] or sex droid [16].
Sexbots with a female shape design have been referred to as chick-bots [17] or fembots [18] or b*tchbots in some unsavory circles. More:sex robot

(Access Hollywood) Sept. 4, 2025: The fourth episode of “South Park” Season 27 highlights the Labubu [aka demonicPazuzu] doll craze while continuing to focus on P-Diddy Trump.
In the latest episode (shown on Comedy Central, which aired Sept. 3rd, and is now on Paramount+), Fox News questions the 47th president’s sexual relationship with [a possibly underage] Satan as they note that Mrs. Melania Trump has been away in New York City, asking the diseased and decrepit 79-year-old Diddler Trump directly if he and Satan are sleeping together.
As the Fox News hosts speculate what is going on between them and how their gay romance works, they also praise the pairing.
At one point, a miniature Vice Pres. JD Vance appears at the White House with Satan, who reveals that he is struggling with the relationship but is holding on to a big secret.
Simultaneously, Butters and other South Park students are buying Labubus, which are only going up in price due to Trump's tax-raising tariffs. At the end of the episode, Satan reveals he’s pregnant with Trump’s baby, leading to overjoyed reactions from Fox News.

The one and only (Christina Randall) Tiffany Gomas cover up. Now a body-double has stepped forward to say, "I was in my feelings" to utterly dismiss what really happened. "What did you see, Tiffany?" Oh, come on, you guys already know! "No, we don't." I didn't see anything. It was just a figure of speech, you know, like how when you say someone/something is not real? You know? BS. What a better excuse it would have been to claim you spotted Carrot Top in first class. That, at least, would be believable. But as compromised Harvey Levin's TMZ is involved, it's just an insult to say, "Move it along, nothing to see here, it was all a misunderstanding." B to the S.
Although pandas, a kind of creature like the tiny sun bear but subsisting almost exclusively on nutritious bamboo shoots (as served in good Chinese restaurants), are best known for their opposition to sexual harassment, it wasn't always that way. They were an utter myth, like Sasquatch, until someone trudged out into the woods, killed a specimen, and conclusively proved they really exist in more than just the locals' lore.
Now, numerous Sasquatch have been gunned down, and it didn't "prove" anything because the U.S. government already knows without a doubt that these hominids exist in every state but are keeping the secret anyway, even if some USFS material says otherwise. Unlike the charismatic megafauna of U.S. forests, these creatures, which come in many varieties around the world, can be dangerous, monstrous, all too human, and best kept under wraps since they are entering and exiting this dimension by various means (portals, prison planet ships, and their own preternatural super abilities).
China loves mythological figures who are bigger than life: Cosmic Buddhas like Amitabha and Vairocana, Indian missionary Bodhidharma, Goddess Kwan Yin, Ksitigarbha in Hell, Yeren (Wild Man in the woods), and big pandas.
Every year on March 16th, we celebrate the fluffiest, bamboo-munching bears that are a source of national pride for China.
There are two subspecies of panda, the Giant, black-and-white panda, and the golden ‘Qinling panda’ – a much smaller, brown subspecies of panda, discovered in 1985 in the mountain ranges of the southern Shaanxi Province in China.
In the wilderness, giant pandas live only in the remote, mountainous regions of China [like some kind of hiding Smallfoot no one used to seriously believe in].
As of 2019, due to rapidly growing population numbers, the status of pandas was upgraded from “endangered” species to “vulnerable” species.
Still, it is reported that there are fewer than 2,000 pandas left in the wild, due to habitat loss, farming, fur hunting, and other factors [like trying to teach them kung fu and getting them killed by Hollywood in the process, with drug and alcohol abuse for the ones who find fame ;,)].
Pandas only live about 15 to 20 years in the wild, but those in captivity may live even longer. Panda bears play an important part in the ecosystem of China’s bamboo forests, by spreading seeds, and therefore, growing new vegetation, which serves humans, animals, and humanimals (like the Yeren), and animals.
That’s why it is important to protect the panda and its environment, aside from their intrinsic right to live and exist on the animal plane, which is shared with humans and the human plane in Buddhism.
One factor contributing to their endangered status is the low birth rate for pandas. Considering that female pandas are only fertile two or three days of the year, it makes sense that reproduction in the wild is more difficult for this species.
There are about 27 zoos worldwide that imprison or indefinitely detain protect giant pandas and foster artificial environments to encourage reproduction.
The most important factor for preserving wild pandas is to protect their environment, especially bamboo forests, their main source of nutrition. More
