I heard from an Aboriginal tour guide that in native populations everyone just did the role they wanted / were good at, and it was only from the introduction of Christian missionaries that such a division of labour was encouraged.

I like the idea that these reviewers all had the concept for a perfect Barbie movie, and are then criticising this one for not living up to it.

I think that - like most people - when I heard that Gerwig was making a movie out of Barbie, I thought: how the hell is she going to do that?

For any weird, bigoted stuff, lots of downvotes and no replies is hopefully the message an OP needs to receive to get the hint that they should by plying their recruitment attempts elsewhere. Engaging them is probably the worst thing to do.

I've had to remember that there's automatic hiding though, and do that manually.

Just seen it, had earlier dismissed as a kids film, but really enjoyed it.

There's a straightforward trans allegory, but it could also be applied to other situations where societies "make their own monsters". After all, the proverb "A child that is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth" is as old as humanity itself.

If you had to buy just one, a tractor or a forklift, for loading your palletised homelab, which would you go for?
