based on my experiments with the minimum it takes for my brain to flip to going "oh yeah that's a dude" and then getting in full dude makeup and seeing what it takes for my brain to flip back to "o yea dats a chick", the most important things are
1. eyebrows
2. cheek fullness or lack thereof
everything else is just embellishment. while I can't actually alter those things, I experimented with the illusion of changing nose/jaw shape/size and counter to my expectations those didn't even matter.
how to dude:
draw in rly thick eyebrows
make area under eye look flatter by slightly darkening it
how to not dude:
pluck u eyebrows
make area under eye look like it's stickin out more by lightening it

Disillusion has an edge so sharp
It tears at your soul and leaves a stain upon your heart
I need you
To wash mine clean
You've felt it too and you need me
Let me be your shelter, shelter
From a storm outside
Let me be your Shelter

The World Health Organization (WHO) has sounded the alarm on the long-term health repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic in its newly released World Health Statistics Report 2025. The report reveals a staggering decline in global life expectancy, which dropped by 1.8 years between 2019 and 2021 – the sharpest fall in recent history, effectively reversing a decade of health gains.

I said almost same thing a while back here.
"Antisemitism" definition police (Thanks Orthodoxy!) came at me to call me all sorts of awful names, because I was not willing to toe Orthodox line Western Left hegemonically imposes.
Orthodox Left defined this as "antisemitism"(always underlying current is implying you are Nazi if you challenge).
Unorthodox Left(like me) will push envelope till reality is prioritized over definitional games.
