Barbie

Last weekend was the big kick-off of the "Barbie" movie. Hundreds of brands partnered to promote it, so I know you're aware of it (unless you've been camping in the wilderness for a month without electronics). That promotion brought in huge box office.

Wall Street Journal's review summarizes the plot this way: the "iconic doll journeys out of her dreamhouse and into a male-dominated real world." Not surprising, since the director is herself a feminist. Left-winger Whoopi Goldberg liked it.

Elon Musk comments: "If you take a shot every time Barbie says the word "patriarchy", you will pass out before the movie ends." Another commenter recommends "sticking to outfit inspiration and skipping the theater."

Pink is a nice color, but I'm not going to see the "Barbie" movie.
