#that my selfie is ugly?

[nururu]

me full of love and whimsy: liking everyone's story posts on instagram

everyone else: only likes mine if it somehow pertains to them

like this isn't a big deal but where are the ppl like me who are enthusiastic about ppl they like having fun and being happy or just sharing parts of themselves? I need more ppl that enthusiastically support me even if it doesn't have to do with them. I deserve the energy I put out. I stopped doing that bc y'all make me insecure like I'm doing something wrong.

This is the final. The composition turned out much better and i think it looks more like me in reality. I might've made myself prettier than i actually am but whatever, remember the old medieval artist and his self portrait of frothy blonde curls.

Also entertaining because i remember when i took this photo it was while sitting in the giant tree beside the town library and some teen boys walked by laughing and pointing at me as i sat there taking like 20 selfies trying to catch the wind in my hair at the right moment. If i get a j*ob with this as my profile pic i'd say the mild humiliation was worth it.

man the thing about beauty standards and being ugly and being pretty and being insecure is that ultimately you do just kinda have to Decide that youre pretty. like ultimately thats how you become pretty, or hot, or sexy. you have to just Decide that you Are. you have to recognize that its made up, its arbitrary, its subjective, and that people might disagree with you about it, and as much as you are able, you need to completely and utterly disregard their opinions on your appearance, and decide that youre pretty now. and THEN.

you need to find beauty in "ugly". you need to recognize that ugly is made up, that its arbitrary, that its subjective, and you need to be able to find the beauty in it all. and this means you cant bodyshame people. you cant body shame shitty celebs or politicians. you need to base your criticisms on the substance of their character and misdeeds and unhinged horrific opinions and not give a shit about what they look like. you cant go calling people ugly for being shitty. you cant go calling people ugly for looking A Way You Dont Like.

and then if you wanna really galaxy brain this shit you start using ugly as endearment. OBVIOUSLY do not fucking call other human beings ugly. that shit is far too loaded, its just Rude. Dont call specific features of people or even characters ugly cos thats also too loaded. as a term it has baggage. but you can see the ugly in tacky, loud, garish clothing, and it can be Good. you can see the ugly in a distinctive, horrible tiny car from the 90s, and it can be good. you can see the ugly in animals that have evolved to look the way they do, without a single thought of what humans find appealing. you can see the beauty and the freedom in "Ugliness". you can break out of this shit altogether and feel nothing but disdain for anyone who stoops to insulting your appearance if they disagree with you about shit. you can get completely out of the cave of these beauty standards. you can find it so freeing to revel.in letting yourself be ugly. in recognizing that the way you look and exist might be ugly to some people, and youre out of the cave enough to simply recognize. thats just your opinion and it doesnt matter. didnt ask.

you can look at ppl arguing about the correct amount of skincare products to use daily, the Correct Amount of makeup, and whether or not its radical to conform to beauty standards or defy them and argue about is it really conforming if visible makeup pisses men off, and you can say, well I dont care about any of that, I recognize the societal pressures of flawless skin and all that but you see,

I just want to look like a silly little clown :o3

Warning: useless chatting about a bra 👙 OMG YES!! I found a bra that I had never been able to wear, since it was too small for my size, but in the last years I lost a lot of weight, due to a illness, and now it fits me well, at least I think 😅 I love it, it's very comfortable and I didn't expect, made of lace like this 🥰 Cool Features: I could wear it all day and not even notice! It's "tight", with rigid cups that perfectly support the breasts, the lace part that touches the belly doesn't pinch at all, and if I say it, with hypersensitive skin, trust me. Thin and adjustable straps, I usually preferred bras with thick straps, but I have to admit that I'm changing my mind: the thin ones cut into the skin less and you notice it even less. Downsides? The stitches around the armpits swell slightly, but maybe it's for the best, if they were too tight they would pinch the skin. I don't think it's comfortable to sleep in, I'm afraid the lace could get ruined during sleeping movements, so it's better to wear it while awake. I haven't found any other defects so far, I love it 😭💖
