I live in a house with a section dedicated to Blythe dolls owned by Mrs. Pennypacker. Those are at least cute and have shot up in value. Read more

Creepy-ass AG dolls UNITE! Read more

I would pay exorbitant amounts for Molly, Kirsten, & Josefina’s full sets. I only have bits & pieces now - honestly it was probably the pleasant company who incepted ‘collection’ into my weak mind. as an adult, my brain screams MUST COLLECT & HOARD & TREASURE FOR ALL TIME  Read more

I used to manage the children’s department at a bookstore in the 90s and we had American Girl parties during the non-winter months. They were our second most popular events after . . . pogs tournaments (when you’re a bookstore, anything that competes with books for kids attention, you bring it into the store). Read more

This is personal and YES! Listen, as a lower middle class kid - receiving the catalog and knowing I’d never own one of these dolls no matter how hard I begged and cried was TORTUUUUURE.

I was sort of hoping that link to Kirsten Larson’s Midsummer outfit would lead to a blindingly white peasant dress, a flower crown and a boyfriend stitched into a bear. Read more

Are you saying you don’t remember the high-octane moment in political diplomacy when Felicity put the spoon on her cup and said THANK YOU, I SHALL TAKE NO TEA when the Loyalist scum tried to serve it to her? I’ve been thinking about that moment a lot lately as I strategize the eventual return to hanging out with… Read more

We couldn’t afford to buy the actual AG dolls for our triplet girls, so we got them the knockoff dolls and bought AG accessories for them.  Read more

Here’s my brag moment. I was a “homeowner” for one an episode. My friend and I recently did an impromptu oral history of it after he got called out on Twitter for it. Of all things Paige actually joined the conversation to say hi.

Fuck. Off. Read more
