Ok…so apparently Facebook changed the look of their avatars to match the Quest VR versions?

And they clearly did this without anyone who works anywhere at Meta bothering to consult an actual cartoon, comic book, or caricature artist, or even just google “uncanny valley”?

Because what the fuck is this?!?!?

Seriously WHAT… THE… ACTUAL… FUCK… is this?!?!?

Like it’s actively disturbing… Also… we did a whole VoxPopcast about this like a year and a half ago… clearly someone should have listened

Yeah… that’s supposed to be me?!?! I’m actively creeped out.
