 Good I'm 840 here. So I just watched this 2019 documentary from from Hulu. It's called jawline and It's about this 16 year old kid trying to make it in the world of live streaming So his name is Austin tester and he has about 20,000 followers and He's trying to make it big time and he's also trying to escape from poverty at home dysfunction at home from being bullied at school And he projects this Like sweetness naivete He's good-looking. He's got all this energy and he presents this real positive message telling people to follow their dreams And he's got this enormous following among teenage girls Not enormous. I mean you'll have four or five six people watching him in live And when he does a live meetup there about five girls who show up so He's struggling to digitize his digital footprint and he's making about $60 a day and The thing that struck me was not so much Austin Who was was struggling to make it as a live streamer? What struck me was the the pain among his followers and And the remark was it's not normal happy people aren't watching live streams It's people who are troubled people who are miserable people who are being bullied people who feel disconnected People whose reality is awful. And so they want to distract themselves by a live stream and Here's a comment from the director of this documentary I think everybody in that world of live broadcasting is escaping some sort of situation and so it's not just the The personalities in live streaming who are trying to escape a situation. It seems to be overwhelmingly the audience Trying to escape misery that we've developed like these two personalities According to the documentary director, there's the for the teenagers There's the personality they display at school and then there's the more idealized fantasize self that they display online and She thinks this is no but we've always displayed different personalities because we there's no There's no like true Luke. There's no true self because who we are Changes depending on the situation. I'm gonna speak and think differently in Sydney, Australia than in Los Angeles, California I'm gonna think and speak differently when I'm talking to a fellow orthodox Jew as opposed to talking to say a Sakela Jew as opposed to talking to a religious Christian as opposed to talking to someone who's not at all religious I'm going to speak differently to a Hindu from India then I am to Say an indigenous Mexican American so We're always changing depending on the context in which we're speaking acting operating and thinking So that's why going to a new place. It's like rewiring your brain You think different thoughts in a new place because everything around you is different but what struck me was the pain and the misery of this guy's fans and How they were seeking like a substitute boyfriend or a substitute friend a Substitute brother some kind of parasocial relationship with this live streamer and It's kind of heartbreaking So check out this documentary. It's called jawline. It's on who Lou came out in 2019 or so check out the rescue Great documentary from National Geographic about the rescue of those Indonesian soccer players who got trapped trapped in caves when when the water came flooding in
