Speaking of changed appearances... Erin Moriarty. I literally don't think I'd be able to recognize her if comparing S01 to S04.

I'm all for people doing what they want with their own body, but that sort of plastic surgery just really makes me sad. I wonder how much of that is caused by filters and social media in general ruining people's perceptions of what is normal.

Like, I understand if people want surgery to correct a significant disfigurement or for gender-reassignment. I'm sure there are also countless people out there with minor plastic surgery who still look great. It's when you hate how much you look to the point where you start to make yourself look unnatural that I get bummed out. I hope if that's really caused by some form of body dysmorphia that she's able to find peace. If I'm wrong and that's just genuinely the look for her, then I suppose I'm happy for her. Again, I stand by the fact that how she looks is her choice, I just can't help but worry when someone changes their physical appearance so drastically.

Oh yeah, she's changed quite a bit for sure, thought it didn't caught me as off guard because I'd seen her in other stuff in the meanwhile, but still. Went back to some older episodes and the difference is really obvious.
I have no clue what happened, if it was cosmetic surgery or what, but as long as she feels better it's okay.
