@cstross Maybe they'll bring trephination back. With cult culture is on the rise as well, it will make a sort of perfect storm.
We always seem to find ways for self culling.

@cstross But is there a review telling me to use Stanley or Draper hammers for the job? Analysis paralysis with my facial paralysis down B&Q

@cstross I guess they are visibly labeling themselves as ‘stay away at all costs’, Darwinism in action

@cstross The retro-phrenology worked fine, so now they're smart enough to do the bonesmashing.

@cstross When a subculture runs out of symbolic rebellion, it often turns to the body. Looksmaxxing is less about attractiveness than about optimization under perceived scarcity. Bonesmashing is what happens when algorithmic aesthetics meet masculine insecurity and low trust in institutions. This isn’t vanity, I think. Feels more like young men attempting to brute-force status in an economy that feels rigged.

@Doomscroll It *is* rigged, but hitting yourself in the face with a hammer isn't going to induce the billionaire oligopoly to share any of its stolen valor with you.

@cstross I wouldn't accuse Looksmaxxers of actually knowing human biology, but someone has to say it:
That's now how bones work.

@cstross Elite capture isn’t new. In 19th-century German universities, young men carved sabre scars into their faces as proof of status(stolen valor). Now the stolen valor is proximity: influencers orbiting power, sometimes crossing into it. Clavicular at the party, then at the policy table. Spectacle is now access. 21st century is weird, and we’re only a quarter of a way into it.

@cstross I learned about this practice this morning on the ‘The Rest is Entertainment’ podcast. Honestly, the next big meteor strike can’t come a moment too soon.

mental health and political circumstances are deeply intertwined, particularly when political-economic conditions induce specific inhumane circumstances.
(mark fisher analyzes this pretty deeply in various books of his, and is worth reading for his insights here.)
