Just so everybody knows, the mirror is actually more reliable than the camera. Even though people say “the camera never lies”, it distorts your photographs a little bit. It has to turn a 3d image (you in real life) to a 2d image (a photograph) and consequently skews the proportions a little bit.

Also, “photogenic” is a real thing. Certain faces photograph well and others don’t. It’s all down the angles, proportions and size of your features.

Have you ever seen someone stunning who looks great in professional photographs and not in candids? Yeah, that’s because there’s a huge difference between a professional and an amateur. Professionals know how to minimise the issues cameras have. Lighting, angles and even the distance you are away from the camera plays a part (the amount of distortion varies depending on how close you are).

TL;DR if you think you look great in the mirror but not in the photo, trust the mirror. You look great!

NOT ONLY THAT, but when you look in a mirror, you’re seeing your face in motion, how others would see it. In a photograph, you’re still, and it can make small flaws and the like seem a lot more prominent, despite them being quite minuscule in person.

Also! Also, when you see yourself in the mirror you are looking at you face reverse of how a camera pics it up. No face is perfectly symmetrical so you get so used to seeing a mirrored version of your face that when it’s flipped in a picture you subconsciously notice the tiny differences in your face and thus you think you don’t look right.

I have never felt so relieved and beautiful thank you guys

Also also it looks like OP is talking about a selfie camera by the way their face distorts. This is because /selfie cameras distort your face exactly like that/

Can’t see your ears? Forehead and chin suddenly huge? That’s because your front facing camera was designed to be used WAYYY closer to your face than any normal camera would be (seriously. Imagine using a professional camera a foot from your face. It sounds ridiculous doesn’t it) and because it’s so close it distorts your face almost exactly like op demonstrated in their photo. It makes your face rounder and larger and erases your ears because it’s essentially a very small fisheye lens. Your facial features look smaller because they’re less distorted than the edges of your face. But the distortion is just subtle enough that you think “maybe I really look like that”

But you don’t! It’s just physics! Try taking a picture of yourself with your back camera from arms length away some time (it wont be like. A good picture. But that’s not the point) and look at the difference.

here's a quick guide for Americans with very common interview questions I've been asked:

🚫 illegal: how old are you?

⚠️ dicey: what year did you graduate?

✅ legal: are you 18 or older?

🚫 illegal: do you have kids?

⚠️ dicey: what responsibilities do you have at home?

✅ legal: can you adhere to this schedule?

🚫 illegal: do you have a disability or are you mentally ill?

⚠️ dicey: is there anything we should know about you that would interfere with your job?

✅ legal: can you perform these specific (named and described) duties?

🚫 illegal: have you ever been arrested?

⚠️ dicey: would you like to tell us about any problems you've had with the law?

✅ legal in 37 states: have you ever been convicted of a crime?

I recently filled out an application that asked me what kinds of medication I was on. Naturally, I said I wasn’t on any because. That’s so illegal.

Lie on your job applications.

It's not lying if it's to landlords either

acreaturecalledgreed

the concept and idea of “you can always start trying to be a better person” is extremely important to me both in media and irl and i continue to be deeply deeply disturbed by the trend on this site pushing that these ideas in media are bad writing or even morally reprehensible

because theyd rather someone stay terrible or just straight up die than become a better person

from a compassionate point of view it’s deeply distressing and from a pragmatic point of view it’s outright frustrating

it’s fucked up.

I think part of the pushback about this is the idea that, to “redeem” bad people, their victims must first forgive them for unforgivable acts.

This is false. No one is obligated to forgive you. You can learn from your mistakes and become the best, kindest person on earth, and the people you’ve hurt still won’t forgive you, and you’ll have to accept that. And that doesn’t mean you aren’t allowed to grow. Because we aren’t just “pure” or “sinful”, we’re complex.

The man is just tall enough that he doesn’t have to move chairs.

Fun fact! He did this because Jonathan Frakes had a back problem. It was easier for him to do this

pokegeek151

Fascinating! I did not know that!

saint-batrick

it’s why he’s always doing the riker lean, too! where he puts one foot up on something and rests an arm on his own leg! he fucked up his back moving furniture when he was younger.

Disability accommodations do not have to be made into a big deal. He just… did that. And it became part of the physicality of the character. And we all joked about it, because without the context of the actor’s physical discomfort/pain, that is an objectively funny way to approach a chair. But Jonathan Frakes has the raw charisma to make it work, and by Gd he worked the hell out of it.

Yeah, not to get, just, TOTALLY off on a tangent, but it reminds me of the classic “Bartlet Jacket Maneuver” from The West Wing.

This is how Martin Sheen puts on a jacket, and he does it that way because of an injury done to his arm when he was born. His left arm was crushed by forceps as they were removing him from the birth canal, which made that arm shorter than the other and also limited his overall movement. So, he puts on a jacket like this–because he has to. He just doesn’t have the movement and flexibility necessary to slip his arm into the sleeves another way.

But, on the show…he just did it, and did it with such panache and confidence that no one dared even question it. He played President Bartlet on TV for, like, 6 years, and so for 6 years that was just how Fictional President of the United States put his jacket on. And, yeah, it was a bit odd maybe, people definitely noticed, but mostly all anyone actually thought about it was “Damn, that looks cool and badass as fuck.”

It became a signature for the character, not in any kind of negative or “that’s weird” way, but just, like…something unique and special that people recognized and had really positive associations with. You’d see that jacket flip and it would trigger this little bright smiley “Fuck yeah, you go get’em!” feeling inside.

There’s even this bit, in one of the show’s most acclaimed episodes, that includes flashbacks to when the character is much younger, and they had the younger actor do this move when he puts on a jacket (which he had to learn how to do of course) and then used it as a transition cut to the present day character finishing the motion–a way of linking them together, making them feel more like one person with one continuing story to the audience. And like, I remember, seeing it when it first aired, and fuck, I got chills, it was just such great moment! They were literally using this little detail, that was entirely due to the actor adapting to his disability, as a way to ground their flashback sequences with the present storyline and make those scenes feel more real and present to the audience and it worked. Because nobody working on the show saw Sheen’s funky jacket move as problem, they actually found a way for it to actively make the story better.

Anyway, blah blah blah, characters being interesting and having unique elements informed by their actors doesn’t take anything away from the work but actually adds to it, yadda yadda yadda.

It has come to my attention that some of you have not actually seen the music video for Ghengis Khan by Miike Snow so I’ve taken it on myself to end your ignorance of this piece of cinema
