Meet Mimi Meme, the self-proclaimed Queen of Cringe and master of turning mortifying moments into meme gold. With her feathered sidekick Captain Cocky and a knack for catastrophe, Mimi’s about to teach you how to: • Transform your daily disasters into trending topics • Monetize your misfortunes (hello, sponsorships!) • Navigate the cutthroat world of influencers without losing your soul (or all your dignity) But when hunky stuntman Maverick Worthy slides into her DMs, Mimi faces her biggest challenge yet: balancing her budding romance with her brand of beautiful disasters.

So grab your helmet, prep your apology templates, and get ready to live that #CringeLife to the fullest. Because in Mimi’s world, it’s not about how gracefully you fall—it's about how epically you fail upwards. Where embarrassment is an art form, and you’re about to become a masterpiece. Faux Pas Fame is the perfect guide for embracing your inner hot mess. Equal parts self-help and comedy gold, it’s a must-read for anyone who’s ever wanted to turn their awkward moments into memorable assets. Or just laugh out loud. “I’ve never felt so seen or laughed so hard!” “Hilarious, relatable, and surprisingly inspiring.”

Visualizing the Nation
Author: Joan B. Landes
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501727532
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Popular images of women were everywhere in revolutionary France. Although women's political participation was curtailed, female allegories of liberty, justice, and the republic played a crucial role in the passage from old regime to modern society. In her lavishly illustrated and gracefully written book, Joan B. Landes explores this paradox within the workings of revolutionary visual culture and traces the interaction between pictorial and textual political arguments. Landes highlights the widespread circulation of images of the female body, notwithstanding the political leadership's suspicions of the dangers of feminine influence and the seductions of visual imagery. The use of caricatures and allegories contributed to the destruction of the masculinized images of hierarchic absolutism and to forging new roles for men and women in both the intimate and public arenas. Landes tells the fascinating story of how the depiction of the nation as a desirable female body worked to eroticize patriotism and to bind male subjects to the nation-state. Despite their political subordination, women too were invited to identify with the project of nationalism. Recent views of the French Revolution have emphasized linguistic concerns; in contrast, Landes stresses the role of visual cognition in fashioning ideas of nationalism and citizenship. Her book demonstrates as well that the image is often a site of contestation, as individual viewers may respond to it in unexpected, even subversive, ways.

Philosophy of Fame and Celebrity
Author: Catherine M. Robb
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350401307
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
In an era of cancel culture, digital identities and thriving conversation surrounding parasocial relationships, we question today the nature of the celebrity, the scope of their power and influence, as well as the ethical issues these implicate. It is a wonder, then, that philosophy is a discipline that has, as of yet, contributed surprisingly little to this debate despite the growing philosophical literature on connected philosophical topics that serve as a starting point for the philosophical inquiry into the nature and value of fame and celebrity. For example, the literature on the philosophy of admiration, achievement, skills and talents, epistemic authority, virtue and moral psychology can all serve to analyse the important questions arise when considering what fame is, and the way that it influences the way we live. Offering the first introductory overview of the key philosophical issues involved in the nature and value of fame and celebrity, this edited collection provides a new perspective and voice to the conversation. Divided into four parts, its first focuses on conceptual differences between fame and celebrity, the experience of being famous, how celebrities interact with the public, and what motivates people to desire or pursue fame. The second part of the volume explores fame and virtue as well as the ways in which ethical issues intertwine with fame, concluding with an examination of the nature of fame in relation to contemporary online culture. As digital technologies expand, cultural commentators remark that we are all becoming celebrities, scrutinized by the public gaze whether we like it or not. This book therefore answers a pressing need, for if celebrity culture continues to expand and consume our social lives, the case for a philosophical reflection on the nature and value of this culture becomes even more necessary.
