And these people love to bitch about people with blue hair looking unnatural, no doubt
Dumper has a thing for blue wigs apparently.
Hair grows back. Pretty fast, actually. It is extremely cheap, you can do it in your own bathroom. There is virtually no long-term consequence to one’s health in regards to doing crazy stuff with your hair. It’s cathartic and rewarding, and a pretty awesome boost to your confidence to own your own body and identity to the point where you can walk around with brick-red liberty spikes.
Skin, bones, and facial features, however, are a very different story. That is expensive. And it doesn’t fucking grow back.
Source: I have blue hair.
Indeed! But one thing that is clear is that conservatives are unable/unwilling to think long-term. So this is right up their alley in that sense.
I recently had a layover in this region of Florida and, uh, wow there’s are lot of people like this these days. I’m not going to tell anyone what to do with their own body, but jeez. My flight had a lady who, beside her face, seemed to be 40s but the facial work made her look much older. Her partner was an old guy who seemed to be a month away from drooling into a cup, as she was doing literally everything for him including his seatbelt.
For whatever reason, Florida is full of plastic surgeons. Loose regulations perhaps. It’s created a bit of a culture.
60 year olds trying to look 30, meanwhile my man in the back just took his ibuprofen and ready to hit the dance floor.
I have a theory about what drives (at least some of) these ladies to do this to themselves
They misinterpret the public staring as desire rather than (being kind) confusion or (less kind) revulsion
To narcissists, any attention is good attention.

Those banana lips faces seem to be a real trend around conservatives in the US.
Now remember folks, gender-affirming medical intervention or surgery is wrong in the eyes of God and all that.
The men and women look like draugers
tag this nsfw before you get reported you fucking degenerate
Content not viewable in your region.
Imgur are corpocrap. Host on lemmy instead.
Why go to all this effort for a worse experience for other people?
Not OP, but I have been a filthy casual on Lemmy since the reddit api bs. I have no idea how to host an image on Lemmy and link it in a post.
There an image icon. It looks like two hills and a sun dot in a box. You click it.
That’s what I was missing - thanks! What are the masses using for an image host these days?
Why go to all this effort for a worse experience for other people?
This question is better directed at the UK govt.
Imgur sells user data including age profiling and includes all the children in the data set. That’s what the UK ICO is threatening them with a fine for. I don’t have a problem with that fine.
They could have put a very very very simple filter on the user data they’re selling to advertisers, but they reacted by throwing their toys out of the pram.
Imgur are shitty. And they deleted a tranche of of stuff for people who don’t have a subscription. We know the process of enshittification, and we perpetuate it by not jumping ship whenever a big player starts. That time is now for imgur.
There are other image hosting platforms, and you can upload directly to your instance.
Hosting content costs money. Particularly with scrapers as ubiquitous as they are. Saving your instance some money is helpful
We actively encourage and enable enshittification when we stick with a big dominant player like imgur when they conspicuously start enshittification by deleting older content that doesn’t have a paid subscription and geoblocking countries that fine them for selling user area including users marked as age band children to advertisers. A simple filter would have done the trick. Geoblocking is actually harder to implement.
Other image host platforms exist and if we don’t jump ship when the larger ones enshittify, we’ll be left with no free image hosts and you’ll end up on your instance anyway.
At this point it’s not any worse or harder to just link to the original image, instead of rehosting on a corporation actively punishing its users for not having a paid subscriptions and punishing whole countries for sayng they shouldn’t sell the browsing habits of children to advertisers and other interested parties.
The way I see it, lemmy is filled with parasites, people who do not offer any monetary incentive to their participation in a for-profit website. ad blocking, anonymization, we are a net negative for Imgur. I can certainly understand choosing image hosts that can reach more lemmy users, but Imgur would almost certainly be happier if we moved elsewhere
Is he hiding a bold head? It’s hard to say, great job here
No wonder they hate drag queens so much. The queens look more womanly than their wives.
Freaks
Tbh these people scare me way more than any trans person I’ve seen
These are trans people to. But they have species dysphoria and I have no idea what they are transitioning into.
This has gotta be an AI photo.
There’s no way people go outside with 4 eyebrows. I mean, not people of the conservative variety since they think all presentations besides “typical white person” should be done away with.
You will say next that dresses don’t go well with baseball caps…
Only red caps.
