    I nearly said that to a Veep for us. Allllmooost a foot-in-mouth moment that I'm so good at. Teams meetings has taught me that all sense of scale relating to people is completely out the window.

    The amount of brutally obvious "beauty app" filters people put on teams pictures and whatnot....it's the 2020 version of Glamour Shots in the US. Like dude/dudette/whatever, you look SO much better no matter what you think without digital fucking plumped lips or exaggerated fake chin lines and only-exists-in-1st-gen-terminators-smooth skin.

    Love yourself people.
