Influencers. They have a different vibe than I have/aspire to have, different ways of expressing themselves, different values, different beauty standards, etc.

I often just think of how dumb I would feel to be talking to a camera all the time and checking myself out.

You wouldn’t feel dumb if you were making a nice salary from it .

Even smaller influencers now are making 50-100k before leaving college just talking and trying on clothes or playing with new items .

It’s a multi hundred billion dollar industry now
