Accessorizing

I don’t have the energy to do my hair or makeup most days as I wallow in melancholy. People seem to compliment me a lot when I throw on a cute skirt and top, knee high socks for warmth, and then I just wear 2 sets of big earrings, a few necklaces, all my rings, maybe a cute belt and either a head scarf or hat that looks good.

Wearing the most unflattering outfit i can come up with as a means of refocusing my self esteem on my personality, not my looks

If this gets attention maybe I’ll add on a little fit pic EDIT: added

clothes are for playing pretend

...to me that's the most fun part - like wearing different outfits so I CAN be different everyday. Themes covered so far include "Princess Diana gymcore", "Jack Sparrow but in the 80s", "golf dad on The Magic Schoolbus" "Fleetwood Mac groupie" etc. etc. Hype yourself up, you think it's cute, it's your outfit, and who are you dressing for first, if not for yourself?

WHY THO?

Why not go through the process of blending those images yourself? Why not use process as an experiment? Why AI? What part are you playing? What makes it yours? I think AI is impersonal. I think it is unethical when it has relied on the theft of actual people’s actual physical (and because of the nature of art, often time emotional) labor. I also think it is unnecessary in creating art. I also think the environmental impacts are atrocious. I also think AI’s biggest supporters are being maliciously ignorant because it’s a fun new toy. Is it ease? Is it efficiency? People talk about accessibility as if children don’t use crayons and stickers! As if graffiti artists don’t use postal labels as sticker, as if sand mandalas don’t exist, as if cardboard and tape aren’t in over abundance.

Tbh, i mostly hate the re-rec feature

Maybe this isn’t so much a fix for staff, but I feel like the reposting of things has gotten a bit lame. I don’t want the “Everyone” feed to be the same post 20 times with nothing added, especially when the thing being re-rec’d isn’t even a real reccomendation in the first place. I like this app because it is different than Instagram and Twitter and tumblr and the like. I feel like people are trying to interact similarly to those other apps here. I feel like we are all drifting back into creating the same social media AGAIN. My vote would be to remove the feature entirely, but I see how it can be used thoughtfully
