I'm new on my improvement journey but I can't stop thinking about my face and how I'm ugly. When I'm talking to a chick my brain automatically thinks 'man my face is so ugly she probs doesn't wanna talk to me'. For what it's worth I'm pretty confident that I'm just average and not actually ugly so this is all a mental barrier. Does anyone have any practical advice for getting around this? Like maybe affirmations or some shit to firm up my confidence? P.S. in regards to overall physical attractiveness, yes I'm already lifting/have good hygiene etc.

You don't improve your confidence by getting compliments because you are NOT a woman. That's weak and it starts to fail the minute you stop getting compliments, that's why women are really insecure and always break when encountering a man with real frame.
I suggest you start at the basics, learn to crawl before walking. Learn about stoicism and apply it to your life, stop worrying about things you can't change and instead work on things you CAN change. You need to be a man and take a practical approach to life, that's what stoicism is ultimately about.
We think our lives today are hard, but they're nothing compared to what our ancestors endured. This is why they invented stoicism as a framework to help you navigate a harsh and hostile world, and be able to cope with anything. Once fully understood you will unlock a superpower, but it will take years to train your mind to be logical like this. Start with the book "how to think like a roman emperor" to get some basic history and idea behind it, and then read about stoic philosophers that the book mentions like epictetus, zeno of citium, seneca, marcus aurelius, etc.
Think about it these way, these BLM cucks protesting today. What the fuck are they protesting? They have the exact same rights, they are protesting the fact that they have a weak mind, the embodiment of a victim complex. Epictetus was BORN a slave, he gained his freedom and became an amazing philosopher that we still read about today, he didn't fucking start crying saying "oh the romans are keeping me down" or some bullshit like that.
That's the kind of thinking you need, go read about those amazing people that lived in the past because they had real values and real logic, the message you receive today from our society is pure cuckoldry and not worth listening to.

The BLM cucks are protesting widespread racism/lying in policing that has been exposed after the advent of bodycams. The evidence is undeniable and their rights are just on paper so long as nothing is done to protect them. Ultimately it boils down to a lack of police accountability.

You need to look at statistics more carefully because you'll actually notice that not only is that not true, but places where police departments were defunded ended up worse than before. Also despite making up only 13% of the population....

There are certainly police that need reform. I remember in Denver the joke was if you are a cop and get fired for excessive force, Denver PD will hire you.
