			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify"><img src="http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2007/12/02/fashion/02kitty190.1.jpg" align="right" height="148" hspace="12" width="87" />So yay! Here I am. Post #100. I think I thought I &#8216;d get here sooner, but since I pretty much disappeared for October and November&#8230; (something about a day job? about teaching the children?) Alas, I am and shall always be a   s l o w   poster</p>
<p align="justify">Celebrating 100 posts puts a lot of pressure on the post. I keep feeling like I should write about something VERY important. Obama and Huckabee are ahead in the polls; Iran is getting harder to invade; Chavez lost his vote; fucking Don Imus is back on the air. And so it goes.</p>
<p>But then, suddenly, I came across a link to <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/02/fashion/02kitty.html" target="_blank">this story</a> over at <a href="http://sexlikemen.wordpress.com/" target="_blank"><em><strong>Sex Like Men</strong></em></a>: &#8220;<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/02/fashion/02kitty.html" target="_blank">Is Hello Kitty Turning Feral?</a>&#8221;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m saved!</p>
<p align="left">After all, why go important when you can go VERY important? Umm, in an inverse sort of way. And though I surely bear a stronger resemblance to my beloved <strong>Chococat</strong>, this article about about the unexpectedly risque Hello Kitty &#8220;shoulder&#8221; massager combines two favorites: <a href="http://mp285.com/2007/kitty-thy-name-is-shame/" style="font-weight: bold">Hello Kitty</a>  and <a href="http://mp285.com/category/feral-women/" style="font-weight: bold">feral women</a>, both of which I&#8217;m prone to writing about.</p>
<p align="left">You know, between the <a href="http://mp285.com/2007/not-an-emergency-maam-witnessing-edith-rodriguezs-death/">close readings</a> of moments critical to transforming ideas about <a href="http://mp285.com/?s=race">race</a>, <a href="http://mp285.com/category/social-capital/">class</a>, and <a href="http://mp285.com/2007/x-like-a-girl-or-dont-ever-be-sorry/">gender</a> and the occasional sputtering of <a href="http://mp285.com/2007/tintin-nostalgia-and-the-question-of-harm/">rage</a> against random  machines. And the occasional statement on <a href="http://mp285.com/category/world-making/">world-making</a>. And shilling for <a href="http://mp285.com/?s=obama">Obamas</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><span id="more-188"></span></p>

<p>(Okay, actually, that list of favorites should probably include three items, but that&#8217;s probably too much information.)</p>
<p>Yay! All done.</p>
