  • My two cents on dating apps in general:

    1. I would rather have something that actually marks someone as willing to have a relationship instead of clinging to people that for some reason are not available; maybe I’m just lazy of knowing people, but on the other side it skips some hurdles and puts me on contact with someone I might have taken a long time to know, if at all;
    2. on the other side, dating apps really reward someone physically attractive or at least that uploads the best photos. I’ve met several people who in person are alright for me which I wouldn’t swipe if I met them in an app. Also, after I actually paid a professional photographer to shoot a set of me and uploaded the pics on apps, I received more likes in a single week than during my entire life, even though nothing fundamentally changed and I’m still the same.

    i remember a pic of an arse-faced woman showing the monthly ration provided to her by the state in poland, as if saying “look at this misery”. probably the pic was shot in the early 80s. when i first saw that the first thing that came to my mind is that, in northeastern brazil (my home region), around the same time, about 1.5 million people died of starvation and malnutrition during the drought of 1977-83, and many would literally give an arm or a leg for that ration.

    since the end of ww2 the two major coup d’états in brazil happened with direct support of the department of state and the cia under dem administration (johnson was in power in 64 and obama, with hillary clinton in charge of the department of state, in 2016). we’ve got a story or two to tell about them. if the regular lib doesn’t care about that, then the most natural thing for us is to consider both parties equally harmful and don’t give a damn over internal issues of the us and a.
