2. She has her own radio show.

4. This happened.

P. Diddy came on The Martha Stewart Show and taught Martha how to rap. She informed him that her prison nickname was M. Diddy, because of course it was.

5. This too. (They made BROWNIES!)

She wore an ironically ugly Christmas sweater and everything.

6. Speaking of prison (which is awful and all), she now has more street cred than ever.

According to this New York Times article, “While some Martha Stewart fans abandoned their magazine subscriptions and Ms. Stewart’s high-thread-count sheets after she went to prison over her 2004 conviction for lying to federal investigators about a stock sale, this new generation of fans say her prison time only gives her more street credibility.” Street credibility.

In printed leggings.

Only the original domestic goddess could require two boogie boards at once.

That is not, unfortunately, James Murphy from LCD Soundsystem, but dare to dream.

Remember when Martha went to jail? This guy sure does.

His name is Joe Tamargo. SaveMartha.com bought the space on his arm off of eBay; at one point, they also sold Save Martha temporary tattoos for supporters who were slightly less committed to the cause.

23. And finally: One time she wore this.

Maybe those sleeves were ironic. Maybe they were pre-ironic, or ironically pre-ironic. The world will never know.
