  I almost don’t mind listening to influencer drama because it’s all so decoupled from reality and anything significant it just feels like short stories about the stupidest people you’ve ever heard of

    That’s true, probably why I read the post every week. It’s crazy what people get themselves in a tizzy over. And what people are freakin’ willing to film themselves doing. Like GET A BRAIN.

    I think there’s a big difference between people who set out to be “influencers” and people who just do what they want that’s maybe a little different and film it or just want to share.

    Meaningless observations/waffling on because I'm bored at work

    Yesterday I came across a lady who’s turning her Boston apartment into a 1980’s Malibu style place. I have friends who watch mount bikers. Boyo used to keep up with a couple who were restoring a yacht to live on. I think the people who do these things on hope of getting famous piss me off, but the people who are just doing something a little out there and filming it are fine by me. I follow an instagram of a guy who’s adopted a whole bunch of senior dogs and really appreciate that whenever people ask to send him donations he’s always “no thanks, I’ve got this”. Made respect to him vs people who buy dogs and dress them up in order to beg for views.
