KENNETH CARSON [ PLAYED BY @story1ines ] : you can't do all of this by yourself.
if there's one thing that characterizes this barbie is her utter, shameless defiance. the urge to oppose ken sitting on the tip of her tongue. yet, a smile tugs on freshly rouged lips, melodic chuckle reverberating. meanwhile the outcome was imprevisible, barbie would've tried relentlessly — until all attempts failed before her. batted eyelashes flicker towards him, as she's made the final decision. " you're so right, ken. i don't know what would i do without you! " she uttered, straightening her posture. barbie knew she could carry her pastel colored baggages to her car, but it was only fair to give ken a chance to help her ; it was all about manners, right? barbies, though entirely capable of doing anything they set their mind to, allowed kens to feel relied on. it was how it has always been. some unwritten rule in their bright, pink world.
twirling on her heels, barbie turned towards ken and leaned on to give him a peck on his cheek before quickly pulling away and wipe the stain she'd left. though macabre thoughts have taken a toll on her psyche, nothing could obliterate her very core — her appreciation for those in barbieland. " you can grab the bigger one and i carry the purses. is that okay? " she queried, glancing back and forth between the baggages and ken. oh no! cue the heavy sentiment weighing on her chest as she began second guessing her decision to venture into the real world. she had every reason to follow through, but something was keeping her back ; perhaps it was ken's kindness or the thought of not seeing midge or the other barbies for a long time. she shakes her head, trying to brush off this idea. though it is the wrong choice, as it becomes heavier with each passing second. " i'm just so excited to see what's out there! do you think i have what i need? " a lie well performed — after all, there's a reason she was actress barbie.

i am ashamed to admit that i , as an adult that can legally drink anywhere in the world , have found barbie horse adventure riding camp and played it for 3h straight . the graphics back in the day were something else istg , but after 3h of continuously playing , i can guarantee it seemed very similar to the last of us . but playing this reminded me of the games i abandoned on steam like phasmophobia or inside the backrooms or even dead by daylight which i suck at . that being said , if anyone ever wants to play any of these games , or hell , even some league of legends , hmu ! you were all doomed to be not only mutuals but friends , which by default is giving you the green flag for doing stuff occ like playing games and watching stuff .

describe your character’s relationship with their mother or their father, or both. was it good? bad? were they spoiled rotten, ignored? do they still get along now, or no?
as a doll, barbie doesn’t have a mother or a father, she just has… an owner. it could be a little girl or a little boy, it could be an adult, a collector, even you. do you know where your barbie dolls are currently? in a private verse with @chaoticjoke it’s stated that joker’s the owner and from barbie’s perspective, she’s delighted. it makes sense he would be her owner since he has a dramatic flair and a knack for improvising. that being said, her relationship with her owner, no matter who it is, is all good. even when she’s ignored, tossed aside and forgotten. she deems her human as good and perfect for her. she doesn’t have a moral compass — she knows some stuff, but that doesn’t cover the tip of the iceberg that is humanity (and its fuckedup-ness) — therefore she will accept about anything and believe if someone, especially her owner, says that something is right, even if it’s socially accepted as wrong / deviant, you name it.
as a human, barbie was (and still is) a spoiled brat, dearly loved by her parents. she’s the oldest among five siblings and you guessed it, she loves them too. meanwhile there was no difference in the way the parents treated their children, barbie did always wonder whether or not she was enough. this jealousy plays a huge role in her path towards stardom, which was a way of showing off, or better said, standing out among her siblings. but she didn’t hold grudges with her siblings, it was their parents that she had mixed feelings about. anytime she got off filming, she would visit her siblings and spend quality time with them. to put it in other, simpler words : barbie had a great relationship with both her mother and father, she was spoiled and they still get along. and also, she’s got the oldest child syndrome. it’s important to note that outside barbieworld, she’s a flawed human with obsessions, needs etc.
logged back to tell everyone hi barbie ! i plan on getting back real soon , but until then you can also find me over at my goth barbie blog !
in celebration of the barbie (2023) movie these are quotes from barbie animated movies. as usual, you're free to change whatever will make it make sense for your rp.
" this year i want everything to change. "
" did they kiss you? they kissed you, didn't they? are they a good kisser? "
" today i found a note in my locker from a secret admirer. "
" i'm totally the most boring person i know. "
" just to set the record straight , i do wash my clothes! "
" sometimes what's real is something you can't see. "
" no one can make you feel inferior. not without your consent. "
" you stepped on eight of my toes! i only have four left! "
" are they not the dreamiest? "
" true courage is pursuing your dreams even when everyone else says it's impossible. "
" i am not a baby anymore! "
" come sit. i want to show you something. "
" every star is there for a reason. they don't have to fit in with the other stars to be important, they just have to be themselves. "
" i'm fine. i really just wanna go home. "
" i don't think this dress is right for a masked ball. "
" you can't keep away from the world forever. "
" _____ , you can create anything you imagine. "
" you have wonderful ideas. your ideas. "
" it's you i love, if you'll have me. "

KEN CARSON : this is unlogical and does not make any sense!
dolled gaze flickers back and forth between ken and the smartphone device in her hands. while it was true there were more question marks arising than definitive answer, this device seemed pretty cool. hence why barbie had to show @setkenoff. " i get it, but look! " she exclaims, slender digits clicking on the screen until she finally ended up where she intended. " here! you can see yourself in this! it's like a mirror. that mirrors you! " she's now shoving the smartphone near his face. the app she was trying to show him was a mere camera, which all smartphones were equipped with.
alas, barbie had no prior knowledge to such matters, but she found this aspect too intriguing not to share the news with someone else. there were many things that made no sense out there in the real world — but luckily, some of them she could enjoy nonetheless. barbie shifts her frame close to ken, making a peace sign with her free hand. " smile! " she cheered, ready to press the button to take a picture. who'd knew taking pictures became so easy? not this barbie for sure!
and… snap! she took a picture just by pressing a button. how fascinating is that?! she searches for the funny button entitled gallery and, eventually, shows him the final product. " see! look at us! we're in here now! " index pointed at the screen.
doe eyes flicker to carefully analyze his technique — it was impressive, but the hair clearly did not cooperate. cue a defeated sigh leaving her rouged pout. " nah, dontcha worry! to be a heartbreaker you must first find that energy from within. " she utters as she stepped away, giving him a somewhat acceptable personal space. his hair seemingly had its own personality and barbie could roll with it. she knew after all, all too well, that hair strands do whatever they feel like doing, especially in high humidity.
hands clasped together as she shifts back and forth, gaze locked unto charlie. " c'mon, bring out the heartbreaker. i know it's somewhere in there, you just have to dust it off. " she snickered, still not giving up on overhauling both of them. cue another sigh, just as beaten as the previous one, accompanied by flinging hands before sitting beside him. " it's just that… everything's changing so fast. and i guess i shouldn't stay the same. at least, do something about the looks, y'know? " ghost of a smile plastered across her features ; of course there was more underneath all that makeover.
"nah, but you know? that's fair. just not overly...fond of the whole touch thing. at least not with people i'm not mega close to. immediate family-" which meant just his dad currently,"-and that's it. for now." charlie tried to sound reassuring and casual about the ordeal. he didn't like making things awkward for anyone, let alone people he considered friends.
hands full of gel, he watched her run off. a small sigh and then he raised a brow with a small smile at the immediacy of her finding the mirror. how did she have this kind of energy? "i think i know how this is gonna go-" gel through his hands and then he tried to move his hair in a way that matched her description. the issue? his hair still stuck up in random ways, all over. the gel kept it down for two seconds before popping back up. "yep. i figured that would be it. i appreciate the heartbreaker advice; i'll stick with my roughed up demeanor i guess."
ready , set , action from here
when she picked up her phone, barbie didn't expect to hear those news. " say less. i'll be right there, barbie! " henceforth, without skipping a beat, this barbie rushed outside to the other barbie's aid. luckily, the journey was effortlessly short — said jail, exclusive in barbieland, was just down the street where she lived. cue the running at full speed in her neon purple stiletto heels. despite having the best of intentions, adrenaline skewed her aid and abet plan, which winded up with barbie joining @setkenoff in the next cell. a gentle sigh passes rouged lips as the officer locks her inside, gaze flickered to the side, " yeah, i hope having some company will suffice for now. the barbie officers put me on time out for like an hour, we can leave after. but what happened? "
was this soul crushing sentiment what heartbreak felt like? the questions pops up for only a brief moment before flashes of ken blinded her view — he was the perfect boyfriend, the perfect friend, the perfect anything anyone could ask for. and now, she has lost him. she enters veronica's house, wandering aimlessly inside, having little to no idea whether or not she wants to sit down. everything in her being urged her not to, she had to stay alert, to move around, maybe then she'd tire herself enough to not feel feelings anymore. " it's over! " she bawled, throwing her hands in the air ; barbie didn't know whether or not to wipe away the stream coming from her eyes, cover her face or succumb to the agony sprung from within. " i - i don't know how to be anything without him, vee. like – i understand i may have neglected him lately but i would've tried changing that. and now i'm afraid it's too late. " cue the desperate, unavoidable sobbing that passes rose rouged lips. " what am i gonna do? " hands fluttered once more, seeking refuge in the folds of her dress, only to emerge again to wipe away the constant stream of tears rolling down her flushed cheeks. with each erratic movement, her arms embraced the air around her ( despite being suffocating at this time ) , as if reaching out for a love that was no longer there, aching to hold onto what was now lost.
i made a playlist both for entertainment & for musing purposes.
if you watch the videos, tell me, which barbie are you?

" that sounds terrible. " there was no hesitation, opinion poured straight from the blood pumping heart of hers. barbie couldn't even imagine how that felt like, but she could empathize — as much as her psyche allowed, that is. " please, take them all. and if there's anything you want, i'll try my best to provide. " the deed, albeit pure and benevolent in its nature, was also the catalyst for the unknown she's growing curious about.
" ho - how is it? " she fell in the very trap she's set herself. " i mean, it sounds like – it's eating you from the inside out. are there any benefits from being a … vampire? " manicured brow quirks upward, half a smile finding its way upon her countenance.

as 90% of desktop users have probably found out, today @staff released an update that for some insane reason COMPLETELY remodels the dashboard to replicate twitter's. this is of course in the wake of numerous other thoroughly hated changes and a continued refusal to fix any of the site's actual problems, half of which stem directly from site management.
HOWEVER, thanks to the power of jQuery, i was able to throw together a userscript that remodels the dashboard back to its original look almost perfectly.
here is my dashboard right now, with the script active:
and here is the old dashboard in separate tab container that hasn't received the update:
it's hardly perfect; i had trouble making it force reload to the fixed layout when switching between other pages and the dashboard, and it currently only fixes just the dashboard. it's also completely untested on browsers other than firefox, and chances are it looks a bit screwy on ultrawide monitors. but for now at least, it's a good fix.
the unfucker is a tampermonkey userscript. all you have to do to use it is install the tampermonkey extension, hit "create new script", and replace the default code on the page with the script (link here) and save it.
once the spotlights are turned off and the curtain is drawn closed, this barbie tends to stay hidden. of course she couldn't miss this party – it was the biggest event of that day, after all –, but she didn't want to be the center of attention either. hence why she was standing in the corner, leaning on the wall, playing with the liquid in her glass. she didn't taste it, in fact, it was really odd there was actually something in the glass. usually it's nothing.
she's startled by another's presence and she notices the liquid spilled on the floor — for a brief moment, barbie doesn't distinguish whether or not it was hers. chin rose up to look at the person that approached her and she's somewhat relieved it was ken. " hi ken, " she uttered, lips pursed together in a thin line. she was fighting the urge not to smile and, consequently, be rude towards ken since he wasn't exactly himself.
" you have just described more than half of the barbies here… " slender hand reaches for his glass, with the intent to take it from him. " how about this : we go get another drink and then look for your barbie. how that sound? "
she listens carefully, repeating the names a couple times in her mind – despite her desires to become an actress, she's still struggling with remembering words. luckily, she has eddie by her side, which is more than she could've ever asked for. sure, there were many important aspects she should prioritize, but the little family she has made along the way – with individuals she once passed as mere strangers – was far beyond anything else. she offers a nod in response, whilst her eyes focused on a dead point – this phenomena tends to occur quite often lately, it seems – but nonetheless, her gaze flickered back towards him.
" that'd be amazing! " she utters, rims of her pink pout twisting upward, " thank you, eddie. but oh, i could paint you cassettes in return, while you work on the tracks. how's that sound? " she queries, taking one last scan at eddie before immersing into her own world, where ideas flash before her very own eyes – barbie could customize some tapes for eddie, if he agrees to it.
" what was your band's name again? " barbie could swear the name had some objects she could potentially use in her little arts and crafts rendezvous. " corroborate coffee? " tonality reaches a high pitch as her question comes to an end, clearly not confident in her response.
eddie is immediately caught off guard as her arms wrap around him, freezing for a moment before awkwardly returning the embrace && smiling softly, "no problem." a mumble, as he closely watches her reveal the vibrant cassette. && he's gotta admit, it's impressive, even if it's not exactly his color palette of choice. she's made it her own. "shit, that's pretty cool," eyes lighting up as he gently takes the tape, examining the design like it's a piece of art — it is.
"suggestions?? uh — " maybe throwing out iron maiden && motorhead as suggestions can wait for another day. his personal preference in music is set aside as he thinks of artists catered more to barbie's current taste.
"well, if you end up liking madonna, you'll probably like blondie. they're pretty catchy, actually. && i guess there's the bangles too." even when it's not his own style, he's clearly got a sense of enthusiasm discussing music && recommendations for her. "i could make you one of these." the tape is handed back, not before taking one last glance at her design. "like, custom tracks. && you could paint it, y'know with the artistic flair you've got going on."
