We actually did a study showing that anything involving voice, whether it's a video call or a phone call, makes us feel happier and more connected, makes us feel like more in sync.
Oh, fascinating.
Well, again, I don't want to say you shouldn't text because text could be wonderful too and very convenient.
And you could share and listen through text as well.
But we are really wired through like voice and synchronous interaction, voice and face-to-face and breathing the same air.
Yeah.
Comparisons are so invidious.
And you're right.
Social media, in effect, kind of amplifies our individual differences, right?
So people who are already kind of prone or sensitive to such things like comparison, they're going to be even more harmed, right?
But if you're kind of a happy-go-lucky, happy person, maybe you're not going to care as much, right?
But we certainly care.
Most of us care at least a little bit.
And here's a study that I like.
College freshmen...
on average thought that everyone else was adjusting better to college than they were because they kept seeing like on social media, like here's me at a party, here's me with my roommate, you know, hanging out.
So everyone seemed to sort of adjusting better on average than they are.
And that's just like so invidious.
It's everywhere.
We can't, you know, we can't avoid it.
