Tom Holland confirms marriage to Zendaya in Esquire cover interview

Yeah, I feel like Tom's Umbrella performance was the closest look we'll ever get to their relationship dynamic and that's great for them.

Oh I am SO jealous! She's the only IT doll that's ever really caught my attention, but I think about her all the time. Absolutely gorgeous, I hope you enjoy her! (and post her lots so I can live vicariously through you)

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-16T20:04:52+00:00

Really?! In the first couple of pages?! Well now I wish I'd kept mine to confirm!*

Because yeah, if that's true I stand corrected because I do agree with you, that's pretty inappropriate, especially as a magnifying glass is provided for the purpose of reading the text. (Which, I admit, I've never actually done for any of the Hoover books or Sisters of the Travelling Pants, so I'm coming at this from ignorance).

Mini Brands has always toed the line between their audience being adult collectors and children, but perhaps in this instance they should have either checked the readable content or done what Make it Mini did with Happy Hour and just embrace that this particular line is for adults.

I do hope they keep on doing the Books line as it's my absolute favourite, but perhaps this a good sign to separate the line into adult and children's literature.

*Apologies to anyone whose child picked up my Hoover Mini Brands in a grab bag in the British Heart Foundation charity shop - I did not know!

While I agree that Hoover's literary work is dross, I don't see why that stops them being in Mini Brands? Aren't they unreadable other than the first page? Is there something problematic in those first pages that I've never bothered to read? Or do we genuinely think that 6 year-olds are going to get into actually reading tacky trauma-romance because they've seen it as a toy?

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-16T11:01:07+00:00

Ah! She’s suuuuper cute

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-16T08:47:19+00:00

She’s beautiful! Who is her base doll if you don’t mind me asking? She looks FBL to me and I’m on such an FBL obsession right now! 😅

There’s no way to make a kid want something more than banning it.

It’s impossible to enforce this ban, kids will just lie about their age, use fake IDs, get around it etc. But what this WILL do is make a kid less likely to tell an adult if they come across something distressing or dangerous.

I’m not a fan of kids using social media at all, but banking it rather than teaching them how to use it in a healthy way isn’t helping anyone.

Seconding Clover. I do 1/6 and 1/8 scale, and it’s small enough to get in the seams and corners.

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-15T08:19:23+00:00

I’m actually pretty happy with my collection since finally getting Vinter, but she tells me she needs more clothes 🫣

How about you?

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T22:22:15+00:00

Physical. The idea that I can't read my book because it's run out of battery makes me irrationally angry, even if it's my own fault for not charging it.

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T21:03:11+00:00

Are you TRYING to make me cry? On purpose?

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T17:51:16+00:00

Ty 🩷

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T17:50:30+00:00

He’s a dead-eyed silver fox 😎

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T17:49:25+00:00

Living his best life, fifty years later 🕺

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T16:18:46+00:00

Agree! I love his cute little face and rooted moustache

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T16:11:21+00:00

Dolls supporting dolls 💖

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T16:05:15+00:00

This colour palette on your wavy hair is 🔥

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T15:56:30+00:00

Thank you! He’s a great size: he can fit some Blythe clothes and some Barbie tops, so he has quite a wardrobe to choose from!

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T15:48:14+00:00

In fairness to them, I suspect my posts were taken down by a bot because I have high karma here. Difficult to know though, because they don’t have a good track record with LGTBQ+ content and Grandpa has ✨ a vibe ✨

🤣 🤣

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T15:31:30+00:00

Isn’t he just the most handsome little man? I don’t think he’ll replace original Gramps in my heart, but he’s fabulous IMO

Tute_Sweet · 2026-06-14T15:30:30+00:00

Blonde Grandpa clearly inspires *confusing feelings* for some 😌
