Selling a lifestyle - whether it's a brand or an Instagram post - which teaches not just girls but people that your value is defined by what you look like is the most appalling thing that I could think of, especially as a woman.
A hot dog cut up with ketchup is, like, lunch for me, so I just think it's funny to Instagram it. I just don't want to put that much effort into cooking.
Even Instagram has become a way to show off your girl group and make other girls feel left out.
Instagram is my 401k.
Particularly Instagram, people look like they have a much better life than they really do. People basically seem like they are way better-looking than they really are, and they are way happier-seeming than they really are.
I'm a true fighter, not an Instagram fighter.
On my Instagram, my boyfriend will take pictures of me, or someone else will take a picture of me, and they're like, 'What is wrong with her? She looks sick.' And I'm like, 'No I just don't have two hours of hair and makeup, you guys.'
Well, there's this culture on Instagram where everyone uses filters and lighting, or people smooth their skin out. It's this weird thing. We all know it's not real and we all complain about it, yet we all do it.
I was more active pregnant than I ever was not pregnant. I was doing Body By Simone five days a week. That definitely helped me shed the weight after giving birth. But it's all smoke and mirrors, too. People on Instagram forget that you're showing them what you want them to see. We have filters.
I'm a believer in feeling good in your skin, so I put bikini pics on my Instagram.
Especially with Instagram, I feel reluctant to make all the photos beautiful because I don't necessarily want to send this message that life is perfect and your avocado toast is always going to be beautifully lit. I want readers to feel like the Man Repeller page is real and kind of dirty. Messy.
When you upload a picture of your delicious Caesar salad to Instagram, you don't realize that what you're doing is leaving a tiny little footprint that will be there forever. This seems to be a human impulse.
There are a lot of people on Instagram desperately trying to keep up with the Joneses.
Instagramming photos of food isn't sexy.
Instagram is a perception game.
You often need to take a step back and think about what reality is, and what the world was like before Instagram - things weren't about perfecting something for an hour just for a photo.
People taking photographs of their meals are not critics; they are from the United States.
The amount of customers who take pictures before they eat is insane.
There's a lot of pressure to look a certain way, act a certain way, have enough Instagram followers.
What you're seeing, certainly on Instagram, is not real, not a reflection of real life, not an interaction.
Exercise! It's important for your health. And just remember that what you see on Instagram isn't reality.
I find Instagram interesting to the extent that new royal families are born and die there, such as The Kardashians of L.A.
No-one posts photos of themselves on Instagram when you're eating spaghetti hoops out of a tin going 'Why?'
