Also, looking up nose shapes is a confusing and upsetting blend of weird personality tests, archaic race stuff and sad body image posts.

Confusing? How did that journey happen when you did it?

Not like, super confusing, but more of a "uhhh, I'm pretty sure the only thing my nose tells you is that all the men in my family have bigish noses, and nothing about my personality" to "uhhh, I'm pretty sure 'arabid' is an antiquated phrase and that sketch makes me think you have opinions I won't care for" and "oh, honey, no, your nose is fine you don't need plastic surgery at 15, at all, ever. It's not 'too late' for you, random teen in a Google image search result".
I also forgot to mention the "gah, stop showing me guns, I just want to know what snub nose means about a face".

I was kind of expecting "what glasses to wear to complement your nose type" sorts of things. I also don't Google random parts of external human anatomy very often, so that may have just been on me for having the wrong expectations.
