oh that does hit in the worst way. I've been brewing with discontent for a long long time now about people's obsession with the superficial, caught up in appearances, all that garbage which means so little to me, but people really really do give fucks.

it's mostly just surfaces that we see. and touch. but to so many people if it isn't obvious then it isn't considered. not their fault? forgive them for they know not? I guess. just wish I had someone present who had a value system that didn't involve fucking shoes and accessories and haircuts and costumes and...fraud.

beg your pardon (quietly steps down from soapbox)
