#uglyness

[jabveb]

Saw a video of a woman talking about the minimum requirements her boyfriend should have. Anyway, they were problematic not to say idiotic and lots of people were mad and saying she's not even good looking and that she said some aporophobic (recently coined term: negative actions and feelings towards the poor) stuff. The woman who reposted the video did so while captioning it, making a reference on how she's "mid looking". Many women (presumably feminists) responded saying that to call out someone they don't need to be misogynistic. Trying not to dwell so much on this occasion on the broad and incorrect use of the word misogyny, it made me think:

If ugliness is a label fabricated by man for men's benefit (broadly speaking). why when women call other women ugly is misogyny? (is not). Why are we so eager to tell our friends they are pretty or they 'slay' and dismiss the appearance of women we don't like? Isn't that in the end intra-sexual competition (even noncompetition, intra-sexual relief)? a pointless fight (or support) for us that only benefits men? That makes it possible for us to have an incentive to spend time on money on an attempt to be pretty? *Hurting* other women by using her looks is concluded by other women to be an act of misogyny, putting her down... but who's at the top, judging which woman is pretty and which is not? Why does it *hurt*?

Many points of view can answer this question, like saying a person needs to have a positive view of themselves in all realms and having not so can be detrimental to their self-esteem. You can go further.

But deconstruct the question within a feminist framework and see where you get.

Big Brother e Fake News

Não penso que as pessoas responsáveis pela invenção da internet tiveram a visão das bagunças que as redes sociais junto com as plataformas de notícias e de informação iriam fazer com aquilo à que Nikola Tesla visionou como o “sistema sem fio mundial”. O sistema mundial que começara a ser desenhado no meio do século XX com base em um projeto militar de conexão sem fio entre sistemas que poderia…

For the ask game: knitted

The knitted sweater was a garish shade of green, with yellow yarn- which clashed with the green- forming shaky decorations around it's cuffs and collar.

It was a truly hideous thing, but it would certainly explain what Wind had been working on over the last few weeks which he had refused to allow Warriors to see.

"I love it, Wind, thank you."
