I feel like I’m getting a bit wiser but the world is telling me I’m supposed to become more bitter and narrow minded.

That's why I had to stop. But that was half a life ago.

I'm seeing more people on social media posting what looks like airbrushed photos of themselves. Apps like snapchat and most other photo apps have layers/filters that can smooth complexions, sharpen jaw lines, make people look more attractive in general. They look pretty clownish though. I thought it was a goof at first. it's the norm for people under 20 I think.

I can handle duck face. This? idk

It's bizarre. They do it like we still don't remember what they look like (if we know them). It's great for tinder/bumble users tho. That's an automatic no from me. Filters out a lot of weirdos.

I don’t even understand the glutting puppy dog ears or nose on your picture.
