OG GG

Eerie photographs recovered from the 1857 wreck of the SS Central America are now being published for the first time.

Wow, an OG goth girl from 1857 at the top of the article.

If I do any time traveling, Ima steal your girl (because I know when you die). I couldn’t find any info on if this woman was actually in the shipwreck or not.

Her outfit, including the likely parts that are not visible, would’ve cost about $800 in 2025 dollars. So she had some dough. Or at least her family did.

Figure In

I don’t care about figure skating even a little bit. But she does show (legal) immigrants and their progeny can be full Americans. If they want to be. Not “Quality Learing Center” type immigrants.

And that is beautiful skating. Alysa’s routine is not as athletic as some others I’ve viewed, but she’s about the most graceful human I’ve seen in my life. And that hair flip at the end is epic.

Auth Vint Aus

I like this photo of Hazel English because it’s one of the few vintage look attempts that has an authentic hairstyle from the mid- to late-60s with an actual bit of clothing that would’ve been worn by someone with that hairstyle. In addition, her makeup is era-accurate, which many vintage cosplay types also get wrong.

Most people way overdo it when they attempt to look like someone from a different time. But Hazel and her stylist got it exactly right.

Inference Engine

She’s pretty, looks both fun and intelligent, is not obese and doesn’t appear to be full of unwarranted judgement and entitlement like nearly all American women. She looks like she could be someone who is an actual friend and not a competitor vying for power with you in any sort of relationship, romantic or otherwise. At a glance, it seems like you might be able to talk to her without having your reputation dragged and your life ruined on social media for internet clout.

Yes, that’s a lot to infer from a photo, but there’s a reason we claim they are worth a thousand words.

(That’s not the new Japanese prime minister btw, that’s Saori Araki, a former Japanese pop star.)

Prep

Definitely not “grotesquely emaciated.” I’d say extremely thin. But look at her arms! They are fuckin’ jacked. No one with arms like that is anywhere close to emaciated.

All that’s going on here is someone who was already fit and skinny and prepped to look like that in the outfit she wanted to wear. Still not that healthy, all told, but not that bad. Prep == eating a bit less for a few weeks and then dehydrating yourself for a couple of days before the event.

Again, no one actually emaciated would have such nice arms. It’s just not possible to do. At all. It’s just the FA nutters and women’s intrasexual competition reacting to someone who looks great. And they are burning with envy and hatred.

Cetacea

That’s one of the things I like about Sydney Sweeney. She’s only “regular” beautiful. Sure, she cleans up nice but she looks like about the average girl did during the 1980s — before all the obesity, people walking around looking half-dead due to poor diets, and the horrible tattoos1.

It’s not that Sydney is unattractive. She actually is beautiful! But so were the vast majority of women before they became purely cetacean and disfigured themselves with tattoos. And don’t fuckin’ argue with me. I was there; I remember.

  1. Sydney to her great credit has none.
