Skeleton Key

There’s a skeleton on Instagram living a better life than me. @OMGLiterallyDead. Just bones in streetwear, going to clubs, taking selfies. No apology, no self-consciousness, just a complete absence of flesh participating fully in the Instagram ecosystem.

It works as satire almost by accident—Instagram’s been chasing extreme thinness for years, and posting a literal skeleton registers as less of a joke and more of a logical conclusion. Just another person on the feed.

I don’t know if the person behind it meant it that way, but there’s something genuinely cool about refusing to perform anxiety about your own appearance. Even as a skeleton.
