When has envy been a problem for you?
I just deleted Instagram because it was just like, I have an amazing life.
I have such an incredible life.
But somehow, every time I looked at Instagram, I felt like I had a terrible life.
And it's such a reliable source of unhappiness for me.
And, you know, everybody's at a party I'm not invited to or everybody's career is taken off in ways that mine is not.
deuces uh i'm out like i still post that part of your job is like embedded in your job like the metrics how many followers you have how many subscribers you have how many instagram posts like you do them i see you walking down the street and you do them and they're really good and powerful but that it's all on that same platform that is the source of so much angst and envy and sadness
Yes, and I have a lot of problems with social media, so why then am I creating content for it?
It's where the eyeballs are, and if I can be a little node of sanity, as, by the way, as are you, because I see your stuff on social media, and in particular, you and I texted about this offline, the Melinda French Gates clip that I thought you handled so beautifully.
So I think we can โ I think it's possible to put little โ
nuggets of goodness out there on social media, but it is largely a morass.
