What a day it was for public affairs
Things that annoyed me today:
- Sen. Heffernan's comments about Gillard. Because I'm sure a wealthy old conservative man is SO much more in touch with "the public" than a childless woman, because she doesn't know about nappies. And I'm sure he's changed millions in his time. He's a real man of the people, who really gets what its like to be a woman.
- Constant media coverage of Fashion Week. Seriously, no one cares. It's even widely accepted within fashion circles, you know, people who care about this lameass stuff, that Australian Fashion Week is a lame excuse for a party with no big names. Also: Dear Veronicas, you look like freaking drag queens. You are on the news because no other d-grade celebrity would embarrass themself like that.
- Fashion Week coverage in which a clearly sloshed Wayne Cooper called Australian models "porky". Seriously, fuck off. Personally, I think all models should be heavier, but to call them fat is a freaking outrage. I love how gay men control the fashion industry and like to tell women to be skinnier, because looking like a boy is sexy.
- Kate Moss designs a fashion line for Topshop which immediately sells out. It includes gems such as "the plain singlet top" and "skinny jeans". What a fucking hero. Maybe I should do coke and neglect my child too.
