I remember when M.I.A. had a baby, and it was a meme. She was pregnant, and people were trying to guess its name/what it looked like, even though she wasn’t even that mnstrm famous. She also went moderately viral for wearing a zany ass dress that exposed her full belly.
I remember that she even went on to ‘perform with Kanye West’ at the Grammy’s even though many said that she ’should have stayed home’ to rest/not let her pregnant feet get all swollen.
Her son was born, and ppl were happy for her, and she enjoyed tweeting abt her son, but was also like ‘leave my lil bro alone. just want him 2 b a normal kid.’
Feel confused about what she recently posted to her ‘twitpic’ account. Seems like she converted her son into a fashion/alt blog meme by dressing him in a similar onesie. Sorta wish I could be a homosexual celeb gossip blogger, and call him ‘fierce’ or something like that.
Lil bro seems lost, like he is unsure of what is happening, not confident in his lil personal brand. Looks like he seriously might prefer ’solids’ and ’stripes.’ He might be some sort of ‘advertisement’/'model.’ Based on the photo aesthetic, it was possibly shot by Terry Richardson or Dov Charney. Might be trying to sell me that onesie/encouraging me to share the gift of life with some1.
Feel bad for the kid. Seems like he is being branded to become an ‘independent spirit’, but u can’t be independent if your parents make free-spirited decisions for you, particularly when it comes to zany fashion decisions. Wonder if he will ‘rebel’ against his mom by wearing Hollister/CrombieAberFitch. Wonder if this lil bro is the next Paris Jackson. Feel like we will see a picture of him at age 5 chilling at a music festival V.I.P. area with his mom, and decide to call him ‘cool’, like he ‘knows whats up.’ He will be wearing sunglasses. Can’t believe his name is ‘Ikhyd Edgar Arular Bronfman.’
Should celebs refrain from sharing their lives’ with fans [via twitter], or should they be even more open? I remember the time that Ed “Grizzly Bear” Droste and Feist shared a meaningful rollercoaster ride, then it got ‘tons of blog buzz.’
Not sure if a moment turns into ‘just another meme’ when u share it with the internet.
Not sure if ur baby turns into ‘just another meme’ if you post pix of it on the internet.

@altbroad,
like i said before… but i been away from the internets….
my email is jf827504@ohio.edu
i let it be known because i’m serious.
i’ll soon start a website, a sort of ‘anti-hipsterrunoff’
the reason for this startup is simple: carles tries to fit into too many age groups, consumer projections, etc.
“going to prom” “design school” etc., he tries to appeal to too many groups to be in and ‘alt’ / etc / whatever the word this moment is for cool,
he wants to be similar to the ‘masked dj / exotic / unkown is cooler / ‘it’s not about me’ aesthetic, so he doesn’t let us know who he truly is, his age, etc.
i’m not about that. i’d like to consider myself more real.
let’s all do it together.
