I feel ugly and I more or less always have felt ugly and nothing really makes me feel un-ugly. and, you know, i don't really have a point here. i'm just kind of exhausted by it

That's a tiresome thing to have to deal with on your own, anon.

Fun facts with Mama Sparrow

-People are conditioned to be unsatisfied with their appearance from a very young age

-Most people think they are at least kind of ugly

-Almost nobody is actually ugly

-I have met maybe 5 ugly people in my life

-Roald Dahl had the right idea

-It sounds tiring, but as trite and dumb as it sounds, you are so much more than any flaw or flaws you could point to

-Most people, as I said, have things they don't like about themselves. My fiancee used to be insecure about a big spot on their nose. I think it's the cutest thing in the WORLD. My brother hates his nose; all his friends think it's the perfect nose for his face (I agree!). My best friend agonized over her "mismatched proportions" in high school; they're part of what makes her style and physicality so remarkable. I'm one objectively ugly sonofabitch, but I found glasses that look okay on my big moon face and at least one dork who thinks I'm cute. Attractiveness is subjective as hell.

-You are not ugly, and as little as I know this stupid trite shit actually helps, you can take this as "permission" (in the way Anxiety/Obsessive/Etc Brains sometimes need permission) to not give a shit if you're ugly or not, cuz you're not, and even if you were, who the fuck cares

love from Tipsy Tired Monday Mama Sparrow

Almost nobody is actually ugly

So true. I can count on one hand the number of truly ugly people I've ever met - most people are either average or some degree of attractive.

And hell, some people considered to be ugly in appearance have had some of the most beautiful smiles I've ever seen.

okay that Roald Dahl post is great, and that is legit how I see the people I know. so many people in my life became more and more attractive to me* as the parts of their personality that I liked became clear to me :)

*sexually or, in most cases, otherwise. there are a helluva lot of good looking people in my life!

I think everyone is ugly in a way. If you think about it, humans all look fucking weird.

I feel you, it's tough especially when people put so much focus on it. I always compared myself to other people and found myself coming up short, and tbh sometimes I still find myself doing that. On my best days I'm plain or ok, I guess. But you know what? Fuck it. I've stopped caring. It's hard to do, but once you've got the hang of it it's wonderful.

I may not be beautiful but I'm awesome in dozens of other ways. And I'm willing to bet you are too.
