“I have finally gotten it through my own thick skull that others do not care what I look like (with proper exceptions for decency and hygiene, of course). No, others want to be SEEN, and not for their physical beauty or its flaws, but for the goodness and light they hold within”.

Thank you KS. That is what I needed to hear today.

Thank you so much, Paul. My number one wish with a great deal of this stuff I write about looks is that it reaches someone who is dysmorphic or someone who is adjacent to someone who is dysmorphic so they see it and are able to heal a little bit.

Well you have definitely hit your intended mark.

Love the sub-title!

Kimberly Steele's avatar

Thank you! It’s one of those fifth grade insults I remember from back in the day.

Cyndi Lauper looks great for her age. Not sure if she’s had work done?

Kimberly Steele's avatar

If she has, she is doing it right because of the fact it is hard to tell.

Thank you, Kimberly. Yes, there is an intersection between the plastic surgery industry and the "trans" push, and that's why "trans" activists will go "after" you, but it backfired, and got your more publicity.

I have always been against plastic surgery, too. You can't trust the medical establishment to actually heal actual sicknesses, and it's even worse if you are going to them to knowingly put fakeness (plastic) in you.

They are still trying to insult me, and they are still boosting the algorithm. Truly, these people never learn, even though I spelled it out for them. Yes, I believe you posted one of the articles that inspired me to write the Chopped essay, because it talked about the unholy alliance between medical grifting and trans activism. In the near future, I am going to be publishing an article called Trans is Violence. I am really going to come out swinging at them, and there’s not going to be a damn thing they can do about it.

Yes, please write on, Kimberly. I’ve written before how I think you are one of the most fascinating authors on Substack. I look forward to buying your book “Sacred Homemaking” (that’s the title, right?) for myself and my friends when it comes out.

Kimberly Steele's avatar

Thanks Joanna! Yes, it is Sacred Homemaking: A Magical Approach to Tidying and it will be coming out in summer 2026.

I look forward to reading your upcoming book "Sacred Homemaking", Kimberly, and am already loving the title.

Happy Thanksgiving! As a vegetarian, I don't eat turkey and just use the day to remember everything and everyone I am grateful for.

Like you and your writing.

Kimberly Steele's avatar

Thanks Joanna! I have been vegetarian since my late teens (I’m 52 now) and vegan for the animals since July 26, 2010. We had a Gardein roast.

Joanna Vital Health's avatar

Wonderful. I kind of thought you wouldn't eat animals.

Michele Lamy is also fabulous. She inspires the goth in me!

Kimberly Steele's avatar

She's not my cup of tea but she does seem to be aging without surgeries!

Damn it I still have not read it. Gonna do so in a bit. My mom loved it.

Kimberly Steele's avatar

I look forward to your reaction.

Kimberly Steele's avatar

Thank you for that. As you can see, I have ignored the trolls, only talking to those who take them to task as you have, except one I decided to flamebait in Japanese. If she looks it up in Google translate she will find it tells her to "go for it, moron!" It's nice to see the antifatards are swearing less these days. There, I said something nice.

Great piece, I got pumped up and took it out on Molly 🤭

First comment 😉

Love Brigitte Bardot she's such an icon! I think with women we want to remain youthful because the crone is such a negative being in our folklore. I have heard in Japanese culture the elderly are highly revered, but our culture is so youth oriented.

Kimberly Steele's avatar

Me too, she stayed feisty! Plus she was fighting for the animals LONG before it was cool.

Bravo. Many thanks for mocking those woke harridans who richly deserve it. Maybe in the future you can discuss the walking bone xylophones in pop culture like Ariana Grande who are normalizing anorexia. Their numbers appear to be increasing lately.

Kimberly Steele's avatar

Weird, you must’ve read my mind because next week I am going to be publishing an essay called The second coming of anorexia

Substack just ate my last comment… I was saying that Michelle Obama appears to have lost about half her body weight. She looks like the cryptkeeper but with a giant weave.

These were the best of times....

now these same narcissists are all on vitamin "o" as well, becoming emmaciated bags of bones. Anorexic chic??? Just watched The Beast in Me on netflix, and all i could think was, "someone get these women a sandwich" Brittaney Snow looks like she eats a carrot stick a day, and Claire Danes looked like her diet consists of methamphetamines and marlboro lights.

I think there are skinny people abusing Ozempic. Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo are two who seem highly suspect. When you look at anorexic mentality, they will literally do anything to be thin. It is an addiction to wanting to disappear, but also wanting all the attention. I also think that Claire Danes was in too many childhood star circles to have avoided being ritually abused.
