Real people are actively trying to live like fake people, so real people are no less fake. Every comparison becomes impractical. This is why the impractical has become totally acceptable; impracticality almost seems cool.
I like to meet girls in real life because social media is such a front, and you can come across and look however you want.
We're on Twitter with one side of our personality, and Facebook with another, and LinkedIn with another side of our personality, and we're toggling between them. That's just a version of what an impostor does: shifting from one side of their personality to another with lightning speed.
Especially with Facebook and Instagram and Twitter, I can't tell necessarily the nitty gritty of what you're really up to. I'm just seeing the performance of all the work you're doing and the look you're giving; it's very hard to get to the center. It's very hard to see what's what.
We're not as happy as our Instagrams and Twitters make us out to be.
those who use the word 'lifestyle' are rarely in possession of either.
In the age of social media and dating apps, so many people are able to hide behind their Instagram page or their Raya page or Facebook.
Some days, I'll be very down and out, but you won't be able to tell, really, because I don't express that side of myself on social media. That's the side of myself that I express through music.
What you're seeing, certainly on Instagram, is not real, not a reflection of real life, not an interaction.
You go on Instagram, and it's just not a real reflection of what people do, and how much pain people are in every day. So that's my mental change.
