Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

It's like when you talk to a small business owner. They'll talk about how the banks and big companies screw them left and right, but they'll also tell you that they think they'll end up Bill Gates. Same delusion

Heads up, the message you're replying to was a joke from the Barbie movie.

The amount of people who didn't understand the whole thing about ken in that movie was scary.

No shit! I wanted to cry for him. I GOT him.

And my fiancé did weep a little during "the speech".

That movie hit hard. I'd love a man version of that speech, but it would have been wildly out-of-place, and I wouldn't have wanted America Ferrera's rant to have been watered down by a "both sides" thing.

"What are your thoughts on the "Barbie" movie?", would be a great dating site question for any of us. Weed out the assholes in a hurry.

I felt it applied to men in a lot of ways still. Sure, a lot of details, I had to adjust in my head, but I didn't feel like I need a man version to get it. There were some woman specific things in there and a whole lot of human things.
