This has honestly always made me pretty sad. Celebrity photos I guess I understand since they have a financial incentive, but I miss when just a normal persons skin had texture and character. Our imperfections are what make us unique and there’s nothing wrong with simply being human.
Agreed. I can’t help but feel like such an old man, but I really don’t get it. No one believes you look like that.
same thing applies to makeup, so many people think the way to go is applying it like plaster to a wall, which makes them look like a clothes store mannequin
No, it should be applied minimally so you still look like a god damn human, just a human with eyeliner or whatever
fuck influencers and magazines and whoever else pushes this idea that you need to look glossy to be attractive, god damn

I would be careful about telling people what they should look like. The societal pressures to look pretty is one thing, but ultimately it’s their body and if they want to put a bunch of makeup on that’s their right. Some people just do it because it’s fun afterall. You’d also be surprised the amount of product and effort goes into a “natural” look.
My wife says she likes the wrinkles. It shows maturity, and she doesn’t want a relationship with a little boy. As for myself, I can’t say I’ve paid any specific attention to the presence or absence of wrinkles.
And if my hair goes any further, I’m going to shave it.
It’s genetic; my whole family looks like this
Holy shit little Timmy’s face 🤣
My MIL’s hobby was to edit pictures like this. I wish she was able to move past her trauma.
lowkey how I feel when I see AI/upscaled 60fps from 24 fps animation.

Sadly lots of smartphones do selfies like this by default with their “AI Ultra pixel” cameras
It is sad. Samsung massively over-processes pictures, and then people think the pictures look great.
Fucking tell me about it. Even disabling bixby vision enhanced thing does nothing. I’ve been taking videos and then capturing an image from said video.
Dude looks like the love child of Odo and Burt Reynolds!
Ryan Reynolds?
Omg he does look like Ryan Reynolds.
That is simply a feature of becoming handsome, closeness to the ideal lifeform
It’s actually dead useful; easier to spot the duds on the dating sites,
Ha! Joke’s on you, I don’t have any pictures of me that are digital that show my face.
I’m not saying there couldn’t be via public cameras, but I’m very clear to friends and family that if it isn’t actual film with only physical prints, and they take my picture, I’m done. I have absolutely done exactly that twice, just talked walked away and cut contact with people that thought it was okay to try to ignore that boundary.
I know it’s strange to most people, but I have never, and will never, trust “the system” to not eventually abuse any pictures anyone takes that are digital. Someone, somewhere will fuck it up. Considering all the fake porn that exists, it isn’t even a future possibility, it’s just a question of when it becomes a problem for the average person that their digital images are weaponized or monetized in some way that’s harmful.
Facial recognition, it’s inevitable that gets abused.
Having the DMV have their database is bad enough, but fuck giving in beyond that.
He still looks cool asf with the smoothing effect
