Taboo on the Bus

We've likely accepted that our life isn't going to emulate the influencers online who wake up, open PR packages, then spend a day at appointments and pilates. But what about the "normal" girls who post a DITL ft their 9-5 and whole-food dinner?? Today let's talk about comparison online to the non-influencers, and how it is just important to not compare your life to theirs too. Social media can be fabricated, exaggerated, and just as fake for the "normal" users too.

Charli D'Amelio shot some promotional videos behind the checkout in Walmart and everyone went wild, but is it justified? I sat down on the bus to break down why we find it distasteful to see high-class celebs and influencers cosplaying as working class individuals whether for fun, fame, or promotion. This isn't a quirky aesthetic, it's many people's lifestyles that shouldn't be tapped in to for the benefit of the rich. Let's talk about it on the bus

I saw a podcast clip of a bunch of girls saying how they'd never date a bisexual guy, and how that is "gay", and I've never jumped to research an episode sooner. Sit with me on the bus to chat about the stigma against bi girls and boys, ft a very interesting study that was done to prove if bisexual men even exist???

The recent breakup of Anna Paul and Glenn Thomson sparked an intense public cry out that got me questioning the ways in which we react the breakups of public figures online. Is it normal to cry over the split of a couple who don’t know you exist? Let’s talk this taboo on the bus

With the rise of the ‘rotten girl aesthetic’, I wanted to sit on the bus and analyse how we perceive this authentic, unfiltered content online and how it can differ from one creator to another. I’ve noticed there is a real pretty privilege in being ‘gross’ online, and how not all creators are equally accepted for doing the same thing. The middle aged, male bus driver was definitely confused as to what I was on about with this episode.
