      Best hint i ever got regarding photos: focus your eyes at a spot a few centimeters ABOVE the camera, while not facing the camera dead on - rotate yourself a few degrees (which side works better depends - gotta try it out). Makes photos of you a lot better looking for nearly no effort.

        Ugh, I hate how some genius decided to put the screen below the camera, so like in video calls or whatever, if I’m looking at the person on the screen, and then I catch a glimpse of the corner where it shows me my own camera, it looks like I’m looking down because the lens is above the screen. So everyone probably thinks I’m ogling their breasts or whatever.

        And then I get anxious and start overthinking it and can’t pick one place to look, so then I probably look shifty-eyed and people likely perceive that as suspicious…

      When you start visibly aging and getting wrinkles, beauty comes from kindness. I dunno, at least that’s how I’ve always felt. QED you’re gorgeous, dude.
