PSA: if you want to age well:
-
wear sunscreen
-
eat fruits and veg, avoid sugar as much as you can
-
do some form of cardio(walking is perfectly fine, you just want to get your heart going)
-
Do some form of resistance training.(calisthenics, lift a litre bottle)
-
Sleep around 7 to 8 hrs
You’ll not only be the hottest 60 or 70 year old, you’re quality of life won’t degrade much.
My mental health is too poor to be able to do any of those.
Just gotta start. Its hard I know but once you go, its easier.
Thank you
“Have you tried not being depressed?”
This false narrative that you’re helpless to try when depressed needs to end, its needlessly self limiting. The only reason my life is good now is because I took steps I had to that i didnt want to. People can encourage others and we can recognise how difficult it is at the same time, they are not mutually exclusive.
The advice works, but only if you have the strength to do it and not everyone does.
Realize that some of these aren’t just decisions you have to get right every day (like walking every day), they’re decisions you have to get right 86400 times a day. If you crave junk food, you don’t just decide “I’ll stop eating it”, you have to make that decision every second of every day, because if you slip once, you’re fucked. It gets easier, sure, but the first days/weeks are brutal.
I got out of severe depression by trying and keeping at it to do these things I didn’t even believe could help me anymore. Surprise, they did. Yes it took long and was hard. But it is possible to do even a little bit.
The part telling me I can’t do it and saying I shouldn’t even try cus I won’t do it anyways, that is part of the depression too. It is self sustaining.
In my mind the trick that worked was: if everything is shit no matter what, if I hate every second anyways no matter what I do, if nothing will change how miserable I am, then taking a short walk won’t change anything for the worse either, not to any significant degree anyways.
That way bit by bit my absolute apathy tricked itself into doing things because it didn’t matter either way. And slowly shit got tiny bits better.
Walking really helps my mental health. To be fair I live near the beach so it very relaxing.
I’ve had major depressive for most of my adult life. No rhyme or reason for it, just shit brain chemistry. Finding the right medication and walking or cycling really helps.
For me, Desvenlafaxine was the right meds for me, your mileage will almost certainly vary though.
Action precedes motivation. If you wait to be motivated, actions won’t happen. Even if it’s starting small like brushing your teeth, or any act of self care or hygiene that makes you feel better physically
Alright, now solve that for executive dysfunction
First, these ladies aren’t doing anti aging surgeries, they are doing “have a different face” surgeries.
Second, the only way to win at the “wOmeN sHouLd jUSt aGe GrAceFullY” bullshit is to know that there is no winning.
You will be accused of “letting yourself go” or “getting too much work done.” Period. There are like 12 women in the world at any given time who will age in a way that is aesthetically pleasing to the majority, and you probably won’t be one of them.
So pick which you are more comfortable with and do what ever the fuck you want.

I still fully believe someone did this all as a joke, people fell for it and plastic surgeons or just laughing their asses off all the way to the bank
All joking aside, I couldn’t help but measure myself against this checklist and I come up short on cooking (I don’t cook. Feed your own damn self because I feed my own damn self which doesn’t involve cooking); wearing makeup (I don’t wear makeup because I look fine without it. If I absolutely have to wear some, I hire a professional makeup artist to do it for me); listen to men? Only if they’re talking to me and have something constructive to say and they’re trustworthy.
To be fair, that happens for both sides.
Embrace equality, hate everyone equally!!!
My half-baked theory is that many right-wingers don’t have any sense of aesthetics at all. Instead, they perceive signifiers. Which is why so many of them like ugly tacky garbage, as long as it looks shiny and new and expensive.
Plastic surgery can be a signifier – if it’s obvious plastic surgery. That’s where “Mar-a-Lago Face” comes from.
Would explain why right wing art is always garbage, and they can’t make music for shit
That’s Billy the puppet, not Jigsaw.
the others are the patients, not the surgeons (who made them look this way)
It’s always really scary.
I thought this was 4 different people. I was trying to figure out what was wrong with the ones on the left!! Holy shit, that’s horrible.
The Laura Loomer one especially frustrates me. She was infinitely more attractive before she had all that work done :/
Nothing special either way about her appearance before, but Megan Fox was legitimately one of the most beautiful women alive. Though I don’t think she did it for Trump’s approval at least (she started pretty early with the first boob job), I suspect it was her own insecurity and I’m not going to be judgemental of that, we’ve all got our issues.
“Frustrates” is a curious word choice…
Yes, because it means she couldn’t see how beautiful she already was and that’s frustrating to me when I think about it.
it’s often the social bubble they live/work in that peer pressures them into this.
For a male example that “Clavicular” guy was very attractive before his surgeries too. I think there’s something beautiful in people accepting and loving who they are already so all this elective surgery stuff gives me the ick.
It could just be that I can’t separate her from the ugliness of her character but, personally, I think she was ugly before and after.
Yeah it’s probably that, because she was stunning.
the 2 on the left look fine tho?
That’s the “before” photos
oh.
Don’t be an ass and let those women do what they want
Nobody is stopping them. We can laugh about bad decisions tho.
And that person can call you an ass for laughing. The freedom knife cuts both ways.
Sure, I don’t really have a problem with that. I’m still going to keep laughing tho.
