Brilliant topic oftheair! Ageing is a gift so many people die so soon, and we should treat it as such
Unrelated to this post, but I almost cross posted your recent contribution to comicstrips here. I thought it was super cute and relevant, then noticed it was you posting it. Would you like to cross post it yourself? Also went to your profile page and I have incidentally already seen and upvoted around 90% of your posts lol. Thanks for contributing to my Lemmy experience so much!
You're welcome! It's a lot of work but comments like this make it worth it. And yes you can always cross post my stuff without asking 😊
My wife is middle aged. More natural, and beautiful than she's ever been. She still frets about her aging, but, it's beautiful to watch her mature. It's a blessing to not be unwell, and have this opportunity.
This looks interesting! I will watch it later, but I just have to say I love their energy with the mic clipped to the spatula haha :)
I love them. Been following their stuff for a while. I saw this yesterday and honestly don't get the obsession with anti-aging. Maybe largely because I'm not hetero, but I don't find myself caring about visible aging on anyone. It's hard to feel consistent about it though because if we could magically decide to not age I would probably do that, but having individuals and society dedicate time and resources to anti-aging feels wasteful and on the whole negative. I think part of it comes down to not wanting to contribute to this culture of idolization of youth and unobtainable beauty standards, but if we could all magically obtain it I'm not sure I would feel the same way. There was that movie Uglies which I never saw, but I think the difference is that I don't think I would want to change myself to be more conventionally attractive, but I wouldn't mind not giving into the "ravages of time" if it could be magically avoided by everyone.

- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
