New autistic Barbie to celebrate diversity

Each doll comes with a pink finger clip fidget spinner, noise-cancelling headphones and a pink tablet modelled after the devices some autistic people who struggle to speak use to communicate.

The addition of the autistic doll to the Barbie Fashionistas line also became an occasion for Mattel to create a doll with facial features inspired by the company’s employees in India and mood boards reflecting a range of women with Indian backgrounds.

Jamie Cygielman is Mattel’s global head of dolls.

Not satire.

Plus-size fashionistas worry GLP1-s will make it even harder for them to shop



By
Ramishah Maruf
Apr 5, 2026


GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonists are a class of medications that mimic a natural hormone to manage type 2 diabetes and promote significant weight loss (10-15%) by lowering blood sugar, slowing gastric emptying, and reducing appetite. Popular, approved medications include Ozempic (semaglutide), Wegovy, and Victoza.




...


New York —  Buying clothes has always been challenging for Ann Lindsay.
As a plus-sized 41-year-old, she finds many stores’ plus-size offerings too matronly or too expensive.

Lately, it’s gotten worse: Last month, she noticed that her local Target in Chicago removed plus sizes entirely. There were significantly fewer options online, too.

In the pre-Covid era, big box retailers pushed inclusive sizing with fanfare. (“Whatever the tag says, you’re always a size YES to us,” Old Navy proclaimed in a massive campaign in 2018.)

But now plus-size shoppers say inclusive sizing is dwindling, as the rise of GLP-1s fuels worries about a return of skinny culture – a fashion and culture resurgence in thinness.

“I see the direction of skinny culture,” Lindsay said. “Brands are just falling right in line with what they think people want.”

Plus-size clothing in the United States generally starts at size 14 or 16 for women.

How can anyone eat McDonald’s crap voluntarily?


Fried potato sticks, syrupy carbonated water, and a burger with lettuce, onion, mayonnaise and greasy beef paddies. Some people find that kind of meal mouth watering. Others find it a disaster for their veins.

I think "Supersize Me" documentary taught me that I would rather eat than not eat at all.

Sure. Boxing Day 2021(?) everything closed in Loxton. Found KFC and MacDonalds open. Bought cheeseburgers and green salad for myself and Mum.

Jesus! Tiny tiny buns, a salad of iceberg lettuce minus most of the green leafy part. Disgusting. But better than hunger. That is the third MacDonalds I ate in my life, none since.

Crap!


I was 13 years old the first time that I ever had McDonalds. My little brother made it his mission to eat "Donalds!" for tea whenever the question was raised as to what to eat. When a McDonalds opened across from my high school in 1994, it created both an opportunity for students to get a job there, or to sneak out of the school and cross the highway for lunch.

I am 46 years old and I am starting to find that I am getting too old to be eating McDonalds. I had some the other night after work. But I found that I was the eldest person in the restaurant awaiting my meal. I did not enjoy the meal. The burger was poorly made. The fries were underwhelming -- although this was not the worst meal I have had there. The drink was the only thing worthwhile because it was properly mixed and not too much ice.

It was either that, or having to prepare something at home. And the spare change I had in my change bag was weighing me down.



I don't think its possible to have enough change to buy Mcdonalds anymore.

Where do they get the semi edible cardboard for their burgers ?

How does a quarter pounder fit on a bun a quarter the size it use to be ?

I remember that I was at school but drove to my first McDonals meal when the first one I knew about was built at Hurlston Park in 1974. Yagoona was earlier but would have never been there. I do remember that I didn't like it but the fries were ok.

If you are ever in Rockhampton, I am the guy in the short-back-and-sides haircut that wears a carry bag and is probably the most caucasian guy in town. Walking around with $20 in my bum bag is not unheard of for me. I cannot fit the change in my wallet, and therefore use a carry bag for the change. $15.20 for a Big Mac meal is sufficient for me to spend that $20+ I have carried in my carry bag.

I doubt that I will frequent fast food store for much longer, as I have lost faith in the ability of Alpha generation teens in customer service. I will have to stick to cooking my own food until a time when farmers give up on society and try to move to cities to make money. Then I will have to eat food that I grow to supplement what the Asians sell to us.
