i'm so over people complaining about their "online presence" like, you're not a brand, you're a person, just post what you want and stop

omg no one told me i wasn't a brand?? now what am i supposed to do with all these followers

that's bullshit, we're all brands now whether we like it or not.

then why are you posting about it

or maybe people just dont wanna deal with the drama that comes with posting freely online...

yeah, well tell that to my 400k followers 😒 some of us are #influencers out here tryna make a

are you kidding me? some of us use our online presence to pay our bills, so yeah, it's kinda a big deal

you're telling me my 12 followers arent waiting with bated breath for my every tweet?

lol ok brand ambassador over here just trying to keep it real

no, my online presence affects my career and my relationships, so yeah i do care what others think,

idk, i kinda agree, but also, if your content is constantly screaming "look at me, i'm entertaining!

except the 40 brands that are currently paying me to be my mediocre self online

That's cute, coming from someone with a 'personal brand consultant' in their bio

are you kidding me? some of us have to deal with real life consequences for what we post online.

yeah fr, most people on here are so caught up in the aesthetic of their feed. just post what you feel like. Who cares if it's not perfectly curated.

are you kidding me? if you're a freelancer or artist.

ok but what if i am a brand and the brand is 'person who eats too much pizza

Guess I better start working on my "Certified Person" logo then.

Agreed! And the pressure to curate this perfect online image is why people are so unhappy with their real lives. Just be yourself, flaws and all

real talk, i'm with you on this. we're all just people trying to live our lives, who cares about "personal brand" or whatever.

lmao are you a personal brand or?

Or are you just saying that because you're not the one who's getting scrutinized for everything you post?

if i want to curate an image of myself online for whatever reason, that's my prerogative, being self-aware doesn't mean

lol tell that to the 12 people who still have "influencer" in their bio

fr, people take this shit too seriously. like, just post what you feel and don't worry about all

omg yes, and also, if you're treating yourself like a brand, you're just gonna burn out from trying to maintain a persona 24/7, just be yourself and take breaks, geez

you're fine with women posting their phone numbers and addresses on instagram, but people who want

same energy towards people complaining about housecleaning, honey, the floors don't care

if your online presence doesn't matter. Why do you feel the need to tell others how to use social media? it's almost like you're trying to control how people express themselves.

agreed. just be yourself online, no need to overthink it.

what's the difference between the 2 if your online presence dictates your offline interactions?

are you kidding me? you think you're that much of an exception that you get to just spew whatever

nah, i disagree. having an online presence is important, even if you're not a brand.

completely agree with you, but don't forget to consider your online footprint when sharing personal stuff, especially if you're close with family or people you want to keep

um, would you say the same to someone posting about their assault or their mental health struggles

easy for you to say, you've got like 12 followers

i agree, but let's be real, there's a difference between casualposting and constant yas about nothing.

that's easy for you to say when you're not trying to make a living off your online presence

i'm so with you on that, but let's be real, if you're consistently posting hate speech and trash

do you know how much work it takes to curate the perfect feed? you should try it sometime before you judge.

are you kidding me? your online presence can literally affect your job, relationships, and overall

yeah i agree, post whatever you want, but be prepared for people having opinions on it, isn't that just life now?

preach!!!! can we also stop acting like our followers are invested in our daily lives?

or are you just saying that because you've got a pretty curated feed?

But isn't it okay to expect some accountability for what you share online, even if you're just posting for fun?

same, but also, stop pretending like your curated feed isn't just as much of a performance

fr tho, i'm tired of that bs too. like just post what you want and be yourself.

same tho, and i'm more annoyed by people who try to curate a "personal brand" and then act like they're just being

Oh, I'm a brand now, at 12pm on a Tuesday after 2 cups of coffee

idk, dude, if you're gonna put yourself out there on the internet, you gotta think about how you're coming across.

agreed. we put way too much pressure on ourselves to curate and perform on social media. just be yourself and share what you want without worrying about looking "on brand" all the

nah fam, that's some bs and we're all brands now whether we like it or not.

bro, u ain't the social media police. some of us tbh care about building a presence and connecting with people online.

i guess that means i can't trademark my selfies? damn, there goes my retirement plan.

preach omg and can we also talk about how toxic it is when people get mad at you for not posting

i'm a brand, i post what i want, and i complain about it whenever i damn well please 😤

same but also, can ppl stop pretending like their online persona is their real life? be real or be gone, idc

That's easy for you to say when your online presence isn't somehow tied to your livelihood.

ugh, right? like, who cares if your instagram grid doesn't "match" or if your tweets are "unhinged".

then why are you so pressed about what others are posting?

yeah but what if i actually am a brand tho? not everyone is just a regular person posting for fun.

yeah fr, i'm not trying to be an influencer or nothing. just here to shitpost and vibe, ya know?

nah, you're wrong. we're all kinda brands now whether we like it or not.

same . i'm so tired of people stressing about their online image. just be real, nobody cares that much.

you want me to just post whatever and not care about building my brand?

tf you know about my life, i do this for a living. you don't get to tell me how to use my own social media.

Unless you're a personal brand... then you're basically a human product

ummm what if our online presence affects our real life, like with jobs or relationships?

but isn't that exactly what you're doing right now?

oh yeah? and who made you the social media police?

ok sorry i forgot my therapist told me to just post whatever and not worry about my character

are you kidding me? some of us actually need our online presence to make a living, so yeah, we

u have no idea how many fks i've gotten for posting about something real, but "professionally" or whatever and suddenly

are you saying you don't care if your future employer finds that 3am tweet from college where you

except when you apply for a job and they google you

guess they told me to stop acting like a corporation on my personal social media. guess i'll have to cancel the focus groups and branding workshops. #justkidding

ain't that the truth! i'm just here to share memes and rant about the weather, not build a "brand" 🙄

easy for you to say when you've got like 12 followers

um, good luck with that plan. i'm pretty sure my online presence is now my whole presence

omg yes i'm so tired of people overthinking their instagram captions too, can we just post our

why does it bother you so much how others choose to express themselves online?

personal brand? aren't we all just a collection of memes at this point?

are you kidding me? your online presence might be a joke.

are you kidding me? saying that just because you're a person doesn't mean you have to be completely

are you kidding me? my online presence is my job, i gotta think about my image and brand or i'll lose gigs and

Totally agree, but also can we talk about how it's exhausting trying to curate this 'authentic' image online? Like, just be real and stop trying to impress strangers

um no, being online means people can see what you post and that has repercussions in real life.

do you not get that some of us are trying to build a professional online persona?

someone's big mad their selfie game weak 🤣 post that good good, who cares what anyone thinks

Agreed, but also consider the potential consequences of your online actions, like losing a job or affecting real-life relationships. Just something to think about.

omg yes and can we please stop using the word "aesthetic" to describe our feeds too?

um, no, being online and posting what you want isn't the same as freedom of speech.

fr, like who cares if you're not getting enough likes or whatever. just post what you enjoy and stop worrying so much about how you're perceived online.

fr tho, like i'm not trying to be an influencer over here, just tryna vibe and share some dank

are you kidding me? if you're putting yourself out there online, you're gonna have an online

agreed. just be yourself and have fun with it. social media is for connecting, not promoting.

dude, are you kidding me? you think the internet doesn't have repercussions?

um okay, so if you can just post whatever and not worry about it, then why do you have a security settings page with

but what if my online presence is just a cry for help

huh, sorry but that's a dumb take. your online presence DOES have real-world consequences,

That's easy to say when you have 100 followers, how do you think it feels when you're in a professional field and your online presence can actually affect your career?
