I mean, they certainly seem to know when I’ve visited literally any shopping website and then advertise for it... (I know how cookies work and all, but that shit is creepy)

Shouldn’t Facebook have the profiles of the people who watched it? I mean, they record/track EVERYTHING, so I’m pretty sure the watchers are in a database somewhere. LOCK THEM ALL UP. She’s 15 so the very least you can charge them with is some version of child porn.

I loved Passions.

YES!

One of my many reasons for loving that show. The appreciation Joss had for the best soap ever created.

Passions!

I love Celine. She’s so much and exactly right at the same time.

“It’s all coming back to me” is and always will be a JAM. I’m not ashamed.

Seriously. She’s only 2 years older than Mariah Carey. What?!

I think because she was married to an old guy and her music is geared towards an older demographic that she presented herself as more mature. I mean, she must have been pretty young during her Beauty and the Beast/Titanic period.

Seriously! So many adults wanted me to like Addy best as a kid because she was Black—and don’t get me wrong, “Addy Learns a Lesson” was some deep shit for Kid Me and I loved her—but I wanted a chance to see a Black doll who wasn’t defined by the cruelty and injustices of the past.

Could I help in the development of an Upton Sinclair’s “The Jungle”-era doll who is a Lithuanian immigrant living in Chicago and performing child labor?!?

Fully qualified person here! Normally I’d be like “no, thank you” because I was never a doll kid but watching the Black-ish episode with the two terrible black dolls (one was a fugitive slave, the other a civil rights figure named Sassy Selma) recently gives me pause. This is kind of an important opportunity for…

I know you’re joking, but this does sound like exactly what I’ve trained for, and I had a Felicity doll!

The job qualifications fit me like a glove, I actually like the dolls, and I’m seriously considering applying as a hoot if nothing else.

I actually think this sounds amazing, and I’m glad they are continuing to devote resources to the historical dolls. The modern dolls are terrible (Oh, no, Jacklyn broke her leg!) and have none of the depth of the historical dolls.

I also recall reading that one of the recent dolls, Melody, was really impeccably…

AUGH I have a library science degree and love research this would be awesome!!!

Well it’s good to know my masters degree in US history is good for something

OMG My history degree is potentially useful for more than beating my dog at Jeopardy (I’ll have student debt for no job, Alex!)
