I couldn't help but wonder: Is this goodbye?

Also, *Vogue* released its December 2021 cover, and unsurprisingly, it's Sarah Jessica Parker:

[Pose-wise, it's obviously not exactly the November Adele cover](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/adele-covers-the-november-issues-of-american-and-british-vogues-10-2021/), but it's just reminiscent enough that I find it strange. You can't just face her the other way and make me FORGET, Anna! The mess of a dress is D&G, which... again, I would have hoped SJP might put down her foot on that one, but perhaps we can charitably say she didn't know. Mostly, my notes are: 1) Sarah Jessica Parker is 56 years old, making her the oldest non-First Lady on the cover of *Vogue* in, oh, forever, unless I'm forgetting someone (edited: AND I WAS; Frances McDormand was on it in January 2021, though she was one of four subjects, and she was basically in a hoodie). So of course Anna has her staring off to the side, in profile, so that nobody can see her face. [Again -- and a comment I just made with regards to Reese on *InStyle*](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/reese-lands-instyles-big-year-end-double-issue-11-2021/) \-- SJP obviously looks very much like she always has, but she does look like an older version thereof, which is a GOOD thing. [There's even a whole bit in the interview where she pooh-poohs the "misogynistic nonsense" criticisms of Carrie having some grey hair](https://www.vogue.com/article/sarah-jessica-parker-cover-december-2021?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) because women should be allowed to age without people thinking they are less interesting or worthy of our time and admiration. To which I say a hearty YES. So let's see it, *Vogue*! Why is Sarah Jessica Parker, whose face I would argue is iconic in pop culture and fashion, not VISIBLE? Why did *Vogue* shy away from her staring right at us, showing us that she's back, and the life she's led since Carrie Bradshaw was last on-screen? Do not mistake me: I know the answers to those questions. I just don't like them and I want to yell into the void.

Second, where did SJP go, exactly? She hasn't disappeared; she's been at a few Met Galas and she's been hawking shoes at her flagship store and she had three or four seasons of an HBO show called *Divorce*. When Covid hit, she was getting ready for a two-hander on Broadway with Matthew Broderick. SJP, I'm sure, would argue that she cannot be back because she did not disappear. Carrie Bradshaw is back, if that's where *Vogue* wants to go; too bad they didn't go there with Charlotte and Miranda. Imagine *three* women over 55 on the cover. Oh, but I'm sure that'd give Anna the vapors.
