using the world wide web to share news about my wonderful daughter, all the while brainstorming little acts of subversion

You see the link to the left...

So follow it. An excerpt:

It has gotten so that women's magazines are actually doing you a disservice when they try to profile of women outside the celebrity-sartorial complex, because their worldviews are simply no longer equipped to account for people with priorities other than the achievement of that ineffable quality Kimora Lee Simmons calls "fabulosity." Take their bestowal of "It Girl" status on such wildly inappropriate subjects as Lara Logan (see June Vogue, page 204), or their focus on only the most photogenic cancer survivors/assault victims/environmental activists. It almost makes us wish for the return of the supermodel. At least in the 80s and 90s, beauty was a job left to the beautiful people.


ROFL.
