• Photoshop is computer software that can alter images to make people look a lot better, which is standard procedure for press materials.

And if that's the same as being a magazine creature, you just have this one option to be that weird fake thing. Over and over and over again until that person just is... Well, that is what they are. What that must be like to be that person and wake up with that weird silicon face."
