I kind of understand Katy Perry’s comments on space and meaning, but her words are so un-nuanced and monovalent, that I cannot take them, or her, seriously. But why should I? Because we are both women, and I, in theory, “support” members of my gender in our endeavors to move beyond the definitions and other limitations laid upon us? By that rubric I should celebrate Katy Perry in space. But (again), her “insights” into the meaning of her … uh … voyage are couched in a single modality: distance. Being in space (really, tho, she wasn’t in space, just the upper atmosphere), esp on Bezos’ Rich Girls’ Cruise, was about a lot of other factors: conspicuous consumption, culpable cluelessness, celebration of indescribable wealth in the face of overwhelming poverty, misery and war in the US and elsewhere. So, my dear, please, take whatever space you want from Katy Perry. She deserves it; and so do we.
So TRUE !!
🥰🙏
I kinda like the image of Katy Perry as the ideal metaphor for “The Great Emptiness”. Thank you. Great piece.
It’s even more haunting if you think about it too much!!
Thank you, John :)
So gooooooood
