The andor show is old and tired, man in his late 60s writing extended didactic monologues from another time for tired actors to read out. It is the Labour Party of the 70s & 80s in prestige TV gloss.
Plastic surgery arc.
I never wanted to be anything other than completely transparent with u guys.
Did I look good before? Yes. Did I also gain and lose 40kg over and over again during my ED years to the point it sagged my tissues? Also yes.
My surgeon is extremely conservative. He basically said: “you’ll just look like yourself had that constant weight fluctuation never happened. We’re simply putting the tissue back where it biologically would have been.”
Worth it? 100% yes. Easy? Absolutely not.
I’m still recovering. Still swollen like crazy most days. Necessary? Probably not. I was just deeply curious what I would have looked like had I not put my body through hell for a decade.
But that’s also why I started this account in the first place.
Ageing NEVER is metabolism first. Bioenergetics first. Foundation first.
Smart tweakments only if you feel like it once the foundation is there. Otherwise none of it works properly anyway.
I find it legitimately upsetting to see a piece of art defaced under the auspices of corporate ownership legitimizing it as not just the true successor but an out and out superior replacement, especially when that replacement outright fucks up to a continuity-breaking degree
Media franchises (halo the obvious example here) often undergo their own micro "great replacement" of their fans, replacing their original fanbase with troons, low IQ shills, and mulattos who don't demand nor care about quality.
Trough piggies who slop up the new releases are the "real fans" while the people who actually understand design language, aesthetics, and purpose are pushed aside as jaded chuds
