Things I talk about in the video
Most people you know, you’ve kinda met them in person, and you know them. Or it could be a fully virtual relationship too.
I made a bunch of friends in my first company. It was right during COVID. It wasn’t a default video-on company, but people did [turn on their videos], and more importantly, people were nice. I’ve been at non-video-on companies, and it’s a drag. If you’re making a remote company, try to create enough safe space to make this happen organically.
Sure, you can text and all, but it’s nice to see or hear a person once in a while. I do video calls or voice notes these days because it’s a better medium.
All of us are insecure about our bodies, to be honest. Your close friends don’t care, and you should show yourself as much as possible to them. I won’t get into body image issues—it exists, and I hope people find their own peace and self-love and everything that comes with it. As a person, you can at least do some things to enable that. We all have preferences for the people we date, and that’s fine. But everywhere else, be more accommodating.
I think it’s the face and voice that make us human. Text is you too, but it’s a terrible medium to work with. Are we cave people? No. Don’t default to text always. I get the "text me first before calling"—that’s valid. Just experiment with more mediums in smaller circles, I guess.
The nicer parts of COVID—I wish they’d caught on and stayed, but nah. Do you remember Gather Town? Offices are like Gather Town.
Forget standards. Kick people out and post whatever. Anyways, create more in whatever form you communicate best, but play with forms.
This has become another edgy post, and I like that, lol. This is a video too.
Video call your parents. You don’t age or change drastically, but they do. They’d love to see more of you, even though they don’t tell you.
It’s hard to coordinate calls when you have long-distance friends. If you can do it for a romantic relationship, you can do it for your bro. Once you do a couple, it gets easier. Sab busy hai. You can even try to reach out to old friends and restart it in some form. I legit didn’t talk to one of my closest bois for a year. The last 2-3 months, though, we’ve been talking again. Fun.
Drag the introverts out. Fun again.Let’s be real boys: everyone is losing hair. You’re not special. Once I go bald, I’ll own it. Sure, it’ll take a couple of years, but f*** it when it happens. I’ve seen some really cool women with bald AF partners, so it’s fine.
Post more of your stuff. It would be fun to know the interesting and boring things you’re up to. Snap is great, but I could never use the app for the love of God. But yeah.
Imma get fitter and flaunt for sure, xD.
Okie done. Byeeee.
