I know it’s nitpicking, and I apologize, but this is a pet peeve of mine. Grammatically, it’s either ‘what I look like’ or ‘how I look’ but it’s never ‘how I look like’.
Language is simply the intrafrastructure by which we touch another’s mind across space and time. If the bridge holds who are you to critique the materials used to construct it? We speak in different ways, and yet we can all communicate. What makes one way superior to another?

Sister, I guess the ridiculous melodrama of my phrasing didn’t cue you into that I’m just teasing.

And grammar is the tool we use to structure our thoughts into intelligible phrases, so that our words convey the correct meaning to our audience. Sure everyone makes grammar mistakes occasionally, but if you respect your audience, you should at least attempt to use proper grammar and graciously accept it as a learning opportunity when a mistake is pointed out.

And I don’t understand why they have an aisle going through the middle of their hair.
I hate mirrors, absolutely horrifying creations.
I’ve found that when I’m exhausted, I literally don’t have the energy/bandwidth to be anxious, let alone indulge in any mild dysmorphic hallucinations from the mirror. Even my typical ADHD symptoms are muted a bit. A tired brain is a much happier brain; just don’t ask me to do math or anything complicated and we’re good.
