A while back my psychopathology class did a basic overview of gender terms because we need to understand it to understand what the statistics we’ were given mean, and all I could think of was that xkcd quartz comic.

A guy said sex was “biological gender,” another guy said that a sex that is neither male nor female is nonbinary, and another guy said that a person who’s gender does not align with their sex is “gay.”

I have a question I've always wondered about. When photorealism artists paint something, how do they get every tiny detail and every line and curve to be absolutely perfect? I know they trace or use projectors to get the initial accuracy, but when it comes to actually painting, I'm so mystified by how they can get it to be so exact and perfect.

Well, they don't.

Photorealism is optical painting. So you're not trying to be exact. You're just trying to appear exact. It's an optical illusion. The goal is to be accurate and consistent enough to compel viewers to reexamine their image bias.

Most photorealism is pretty blobby close up:
