May I just say that β€œeverything is the same” only works IMO if you live in a big city where everybody’s chronically online, or if you go to school/college. I personally find that NOBODY around me knows of the huge scrunchies or the bright red accessories (or others trends) … And I believe that we tend to consider our online bubble like the only existing one, when around us there is still a lot of diversity. While you make a good point about certain things, I feel like we (and I absolutely do include myself in this) should just try to put the TikTok trends into their context ; a lot of them don’t really bleed into reality β€œen masse” like we tend to see online. I don’t know if I’m the only one feeling like this ?

Maybe I sound bitter and I’m sorry if that’s the case ; I actually really enjoy reading your thoughts, Hannah ! Thank you for the second amazing newsletter of the day :).

Just realised I got way too excited about this topic ; we agree on the fact that *not* everything is the same.

i agree with everything you just said. i have to say however that i didn’t expect max to make it on your newsletter because i’m not british and have never heard of these people (i haven’t watched love island) but this seems indeed very important for all the fiat 500 fake tan girlies and i’m invested
