Lol yes, she would. I am considering freezing materials for IVF for sure!

I'm not really worried about my body too much. I'm not super dysphoric about the shape (though I want my belly fat to go away). But I do really want the effeminate look in the face and hair. Are those apps still unrealistic? It's hard to imagine I'll never get to that goal point.

That's a good point. I have therapy on Friday and I've been bottling up a lot of those feelings for that. But I'm going to bring it up to my wife. We've sort of bridged the emotional gap to the point that I think she's comfortable affirming me without feeling concerned about the whole thing.

Are there any shows you watch that are made and broadcast only in Greenland that you would recommend to an American?

Yeah that's fair! I guess I just don't want to lose what little butt I have. I have the classic issue of fat in the belly and not too much elsewhere.

Oh BROTHER this guy stinks!

Parks? Gross. I like parking lots.

The most generous assumption is that they use statistics to determine correlations like this (e.g., deleted selfies resulted in a high CTR for beauty ads so they made that a part of their algo). The least generous interpretation is exactly what you're thinking: an asshole came up with it because it's logical and effective.

Either way, ethics needs to be a bigger part of the programmers education. And we, as a society, need to make algorithms more transparent (at least social media algorithms). Reddit's trending algorithm used to be open source during the good ole days.
