Arthur asked How often do you take selfies?

Overall less often. It's more entertaining to observe the world through a lense than to spend it on myself.

Pffff, it's been a while since I don't take any selfie

Since some time, basically since covid I increased that frequency also due to lack of other victims of my interest. Also I did change in mood and style a bit since then and that made it possible to feel differently about what you could say is vanity. So on average I'm taking selfies about two times a week or so, but some of these happen also with the help of a friend. So not exactly selfies though it's me in the picture.

Not infrequently. I take pictures of myself that no one ever sees except me because I'm not sure what I look like and I think the mirror isn't giving me the full tea sometimes. If I look in a mirror and I don't go "oHHH nOOOOO, I WOULD LIKE TO GO TO SLEEP NOW" I think I must be delusional. So I'll think, "I gotta get to the bottom of this," and I'll take a picture of myself (or 5, but it usually takes 2 to 3) until there's one where I look very, very bad. Then I'm satisfied because I'm like, "ah yeah, now I'm seeing it right." and that is uhm, what's the medical term for it? "A lil fkd up"? But maybe making sure that you never actually feel good is the key to success. You can't argue that it's not once you get a load of all my goats, mansions and healthy, lasting human relationships.

Ok, but what's really crazy is that out of those things I listed, the only one where my brain was actually like, "aw man, if only!" was the goats one. I wish I had some goats.
