To the facialist at the hair salon I frequented in January who, unsolicited, told me she could get rid of my skin discoloration and fine lines:
There's nothing wrong with my face.
And there's no ethical way to sell anti-aging skincare products, argues Jessica DeFino. Love her work.

Jessica DeFino's Substack tackles the connection between #ClimateChange, the #Patriarchy, #consumerism and #BeautyStandards.
It's hard to see the links between our culture, our behavior, and our future so clearly drawn, and yet so little action is taken to halt the inevitable consequences.

How beauty robs us from our sense of time.
I'm loving this discussion on beauty and the hold it has on us. We can't be inclusive while dreaming of exclusivity.

> ... the only difference we have with our medieval European counterparts is that we come up with new beauty standards that everyone is supposed to live up to much more quickly. So, hooray?

This is a turning point - I just now used this prompt:
"A beautiful young woman in a spacesuit reclining in the cockpit of a fantastically futuristic spacecraft."
And, FOR THE BLOODY FIRST TIME EVER, not all of the women were white women. There were at least two who looked vaguely Asian.
They must be tweaking the datasets.
I shall keep prodding it. Who knows, maybe one day it'll respond to 'beautiful woman' with a black woman?

“The Ugliest Hat in the World” is for sale on my shop at a pay-what-you-want price. All proceeds from the shop through tomorrow Dec 5 will go to purchasing positive self-esteem children’s books for local #LittleFreeLibrary locations. (For those who followed me before - this was extended by a day since migrating interrupted things). A huge thank you for considering sharing and helping me get the word out again 🙏 #knitting #beautystandards #socialexperiment #childrensbooks #MastoArt #fiberarts

Ugly because of incoherent patterns? Or beautiful because the strands are from a children’s hospital project? 🏥
Ugly because of frays? Beautiful because the frays weave a healthier earth by using “garbage” ? 🌎
Ugly because of social standards? Beautiful because it’s value in northern winter? 🥶
Ugly because of labels? Or beautiful because it labels you LOVED ALWAYS? ❤️
If you think something is ugly, get to know it.

Rewatching this cute #cdrama again.
I like how episode 14 touches on the topic of #beautystandards - questioning how we view #beauty & why
"...If someone doesn't fall into the mainstream standard of beauty, are they not beautiful at all? Are they not worthy to be complimented & to be loved? Who said that? Who set the rules? Who has the right to judge so?"

Society has a distorted perception of beauty.
