    Okay, I have to temper this review with a little personal shame ... Truth is, I should have reviewed this stumbler a long, long time ago. Kismets Kitty is long lost to SU now, and I've only just learnt to appreciate her peculiar genius ... We communicated briefly last year due to our mutual love for Henry Miller and sick humour in general. As for her taste in stumbles, I was a little ambiguous. I have an out-and-out suspicion of overt nihilism ... it so often turns out to be nothing more than a pose by deeply decadent, jaded and privileged people scrambling to make their name as an artist. It was only recently, that I had the time to have a really good rummage through her posts... So much of life is about reading between the lines. It is only then that you understand the spirit in which something is delivered....and I see now that KK was, philosophically, on the right side of the barricades. Okay, pictures of mutant vaginas isn't my idea of life-affirming, but I also realise that satire is utterly worthless unless it is vicious and a little disturbing ... Real satire says; 'Almost everything you know is false ... even your forms of rebellion and dissent are carefully constructed templates, designed to maintain the status quo' Back in the dim, dark past, when dinosaurs roamed the stage and men were paid in luncheon vouchers, me and my mates, with our coloured hair and studded leathers used to hang around street corners and say "I wonder what the hell the next generation are gonna have to do to shock us - to go one stage further" (Ah, such naivety, to think that a mohawk haircut, spiked up with Imperial Leather, was the ultimate in outrage) ...Looking at KK's pages, I understand it now. That youthful mastery of HTML (still a form of magic to anyone over 40) and the realization that culture and ideology itself is at a sort of end-game ... Yes indeed...rediscovering Kitty's pages has made me look again at my own culture. Back in the late 80s, we took over an area of our city and created a pretty unique, if haphazard, social experiment. I'm supposed to be writing about it, whilst dealing with the possibility that the whole question is obsolete ... This is not a maudlin statement, though ... the very fact that stumblers like this exist is a ray of hope. The main gripe of my generation is the seemingly passive consumption of younger people. KK proves that the same spirit of dissent survives ... always ... you just might not recognize it at first ...

    Everyone should visit these pages. This stumbler does amazing things with her blog. Enough said, now I need to go back and see some more of it.
