Jag arrangerar en experimentell dataspelsfest som heter Automat och jag letar efter folk som vill hjälpa mig med det.
Automat handlar om 3 saker: 1. att vara en plattform för nyskapande experiment som gränsar mellan spel och konst 2. att föra samman främlingar med hjälp av spel och installationer som socialt smörjmedel 3. att visa upp och främja Göteborgs lokala spelkultur
Vad behöver jag? Jag behöver hjälp med att planera och styra inför, under och efter varje evenemang. Automat hade inte varit möjligt utan den hjälp, stöd och deltagande som jag fått av människor i mitt nätverk.
Jag har dock saknat att planera evenemangen tillsammans med någon. För att jag ska orka fortsätta driva Automat, så behöver jag en planeringsgrupp. Vi behöver inte bli många, bara fler än en person. Typ tre kanske?
Är du den jag söker? Hör av dig till mig! kjellhaften@gmail.com
ok this is “earring magic ken” who was introduced in 1992 (and discontinued shortly thereafter)
basically mattel had done a survey and discovered that girls didn’t think ken was “cool” enough
SO someone had the bright idea to research coolness by sending people to raves which, at the time, were mostly hosted & attended by gay men. so they went to these raves and took notes on what the fashions were and finally landed on this outfit, mesh shirt & all
this doll became the best selling ken doll in history, mostly because gay men bought it in droves. (many of them said his necklace was supposed to be a cockring) but mattel and a number of parents weren’t very amused and discontinued the doll
OH MY GOD YOU’RE LEAVING OUT THE BEST PART
SO
MAGIC EARRING KEN. This bitch gay as HELL. supposedly the aforementioned rings on him are for “magic earrings” and clip on charms. These charms are advertised as totally COMPLETELY heterosexual, not gay at ALL, see there’s a Barbie that also has Magic Earring Action with clip on charms! Ken wears them to match, because he’s STRAIGHT
Here’s the issue: THERE IS NO MATCHING BARBIE. Magic Earring Ken is out here straight up wearing cock rings on his jacket with a thinly devised advertising ploy to make it SEEM not-gay. But it’s DEFINITELY GAY. (And if you’re thinking, why cock rings? Well way back in 1992 gay culture was HUGE on wearing cock rings, it was the in-style. Everyone who was gay wore one, even women; you sewed them to your leather jacket, and the placement indicated some of your sexual preference. In case you were wondering, Ken is a Bottom.)
AND IT GETS BETTER. Magic Earring Ken was on the shelves for six weeks before they pulled him. In that short amount of time? Magic Earring Ken became the BEST SELLING Barbie Doll Mattel has EVER SOLD. LET THAT SINK IN. SIX WEEKS. And now every time these wheezy old hetero windbag execs go to look at their sales board, they’re forever haunted by Magic Earring Ken at the top of their charts.
Gay as hell, Cock Ring Bottom Ken, the Best Selling Mattel Doll. Pride.
please take the time out of your day to read about Magic Earring Ken™
