- Comment on In Hollywood why do all actors and such have fake names besides their own? How do they come up with them? If I went to hollywood could i make up something like Don Dickle Pickle Wiggler? 2 weeks ago:

Sometimes it’s because of structural Anglocentrism making it harder to get an acting role with a foreign-sounding last name (e.g. “Ramon Antonio Gerard Estevez” becomes “Martin Sheen” or “Ilyena Lydia Vadilievna Mironov” becomes “[Dame] Helen Mirren”)
-
Sometimes it’s just a matter of cropping a name or two (“Philip Anthony Hopkins”)
-
Sometimes it’s just about sounding cooler (“Eric Bishop” becomes “Jamie Foxx” or “Caryn Elaine Johnson” becomes “Whoopi Goldberg”)
-
And sometimes it’s because there’s already a SAG member with your name (“Diane Hall” becomes “Diane Keaton” or “Michael Douglas” becomes… “Michael Keaton”)

- Comment on Is looksmaxxing legit? 2 months ago:
there’s certainly some value in trying to look more stylish or cuter if that’s what you want to do, but looksmaxxing is a toxic pseudoscience mostly based around factors you have little control over, like height (yes, i know there are ways to increase it slightly, that’s why i said “little”).
