@FPLMate he's had a good World Cup, but there's a reason he plays for Newcastle united

@AnfieldKnow FSG have been great; but they’ve relapsed back to being investors; first the super league, then they tried to sell the club for a huge profit; they won’t be investing in Liverpool; like Arsenal towards the end of Wenger’s career, FSG will keep expecting Klopp to perform miracles

This is a side by side of two women gracing the front covers of two well known magazines.

The one on the right we all know is Martha Stewart, age 81. The one on the left is Apo Whang-Od, age 106, a tribal tattooist in a remote province in the Philippines.

There seems to be an unwritten rule which equates beauty with youngness. In an interview, Martha Stewart told the reporter she credits her organic, home-grown, farm-to-table eating, yoga, and actively healthy lifestyle to her youthfulness. While that’s an admirable journey for her, let’s not forget the amount of privilege that kind of lifestyle requires.

On the left is Apo Whang-Od, who is a 106-year-old tribal tattooist in the Philippines. The wisdom she carries in every forehead wrinkle and frown line is stunning. Her eyes are glass, reflecting back all that she’s witnessed over a century of lived experiences. Her tattoos a reminder of the ancestors she seeks to honor.

Both women are beautiful in their own right. But I wish we as women didn’t play into this idea that we have to look younger—and thinner—in order to fit some unrealistic beauty standard which will grant us acceptance and relevance in the world around us.

I’m writing this for any woman who, like me, may have had a punched-gut reaction to seeing an octogenarian in a swimsuit on the cover of a magazine looking more like a woman in her forties or fifties: Anti-aging is not a beauty standard.

There IS beauty in wrinkles, and saggy skin, and drooping breasts. These are markers of a life hard fought for and well lived. It seems odd to try and erase these battle scars.

So while I applaud Martha for her fortunate body, carefully curated procedures, and pristinely styled makeup, I also applaud Whang-Od for what others may perceive as imperfections.

Anti-aging is not a beauty standard.
Authenticity is.

@FPL__Raptor Ranked 1.4 million in GW25; WC in GW26; new rank in DGW29 = pushing 544k ... pumped!

@SamueILFC surprised he’s not on more yellows; who’d blame him with abs like that 🙏🏼 #legend

@AnfieldEdition @caughtoffside Are American owners all the same really? Don’t back an immense coach, ruin club image with SuperLeague nonsense, try to sell club for huge profit (then retract), now talk of letting Klopp go. Do it! Calls for FSG out is imminent. I’d rather owners and ALL players leave than Klopp

[Doro @js9jj13]

@Uzoma80158022 @Mobyhaque1 admire? @ManCity have a second 11, 12, 15 that can match any team’s first 11 in terms of talent, wages, transfer fees … hmm

@empireofthekop Darwin Gakpo Firminio : it’ll be worth a try with Diaz, Jota & Salah on the bench

@TrungTPhan Genuinely having trouble wrapping my head around this one. How was Harvard University founded even before the US of A came into existence?

@Ceewan0224 It’s a game of averages really. For every woman of substance who feels like you, there’s at least 9 other women who are ‘excited’. So this ‘old man’s’ cheapness does work more often than not. Sad but that’s the way it is (and has always been).

[Doro @js9jj13]

@ImihcWangmo Sad to say but I have very little respect for the doctors and health workers in this country. If there is anything close to a Hippocratic Oath you need to take, our doctors, nurses and health workers don’t seem to remember it at all once they’re in the health system.

[Doro @js9jj13]

@Ceewang02 basically the same, aren’t they?

[Doro @js9jj13]

@JohyanCruyff How is @SonHyeung out of this lineup?
