Absolutely wild manifestation of “expertise doesn’t exist.“ The person who literally creates what you’re asking for for a living, and has done so for decades, is telling you your idea won’t work, but better take the side of the lie machine!

Enjoying the very niche phenomenon of jewelers bitterly complaining about customers bringing them generative AI depictions of what they want, and then angrily snapping “Well, ChatGPT could do it!!!“ when the jeweler explains the design they’re asking for is not structurally sound or possible.

Just a little reminder to everyone: Algorithms are useless. It's very hard to find cool stuff without being shown it by someone else. So if you find something cool - a band, a game, a video essay or anything else - share it and tell people about it. And thanks to anyone who does! You're cool!

Anyway. Gotta be ready in 3hrs for a meeting. If I can sneak it in, i WILL go dolled up.

I wonder if the Global South will be enough -inbetween these WWIII attempts, ofc- to permanently move the needle away from U.S. cultural impositions. Like. 𝘕𝘰 𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘣𝘶𝘭𝘭𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘵, 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩, 𝙦𝙪𝙚𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢 𝙘𝙡𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙨. It'd be nice. 🥰

anyway. in the past, the "revolution" came pre-packaged from the 🦅🇺🇸. Men's clothing had evolved in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1990s. Then, ppl got brainwashed via RealityTV.

idk, just, mulling over this a bit. It ain't nostalgia as the hippies or punks had it. It's... 𝕜𝕟𝕠𝕨𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕒 𝕞𝕠𝕣𝕖 𝕔𝕠𝕝𝕠𝕣𝕗𝕦𝕝 𝕗𝕦𝕥𝕦𝕣𝕖 𝕔𝕠𝕦𝕝𝕕 𝕓𝕖 𝕒𝕔𝕔𝕠𝕞𝕡𝕝𝕚𝕤𝕙𝕖𝕕. And. 𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐟𝐮𝐥, 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞. Just mulling.

but. MAN! ppl in the early 2000s really believed a revolution would win!!! Specifically talking about body and gender, here. Somedays, you just want to exist and not be revolutionary, 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙚𝙭𝙞𝙨𝙩 𝙞𝙣 𝙤𝙣𝙚'𝙨 𝙘𝙤𝙡𝙤𝙧𝙛𝙪𝙡 𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛.

I guess you just gotta admit that this ain't 1998. Most of the "youth", terrified to become the heroes that they read in ther comics/books/movies, are busy channeling all henchmen and evil bosses and 𝕟𝕒𝕣𝕔𝕠𝕤, I guess...?

SO! You'll be judged bc "you are too old to wear them". Hit cardio for 8mos, then "OMG whyyyy can't old ppl just admit they're olddd, don't use earrings!" ...and then, <<they DM/try lovebombing so they can fuck&run, dine&dash>>

it's incredibly weird to experience GenZs imitating, like deranged crows, the same slurs of their grandpappies? 😌😉😒👺🤯😖

There's, like, a whole different 𝕧𝕪𝕓𝕖 when you start using earrings as a man. Like... if you're thin, hipersexualized and slurs (OF COURSE) if you're thicker, hiperrejection and slurs including fatphobia (NATURALLY) So: you use ur imagination to survive! :D

bueeeenos días a mí! :D

this is all SOOOOOO 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐑𝐞𝐢𝐜𝐡-𝐲. oh well. USAians are drugged up in dopamine and exceptionalism, nothing will happen to defy it folx! Welcome, Gilead.

Amen to that! Having a latinx coworker who dollifies themselves (🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️), was a trip & half. No one, and I mean 🅝🅞 one @ the office, was aware of how to speak respectfully and properly, all of a sudden? So she would modulate her voice to mimic the toughest bosses... and she survived the cuts.
