Description

Besties… gather round. The time for a kumbaya has come - because what is actually going on out here? Lately the internet has developed a new full-time hobby: auditing other people’s happiness. Weddings? Problematic. Pregnancies? Selfish & apparently not eco-friendly. Healthy relationship? Suspicious. Slick back bun? STRAIGHT TO JAIL. This week, our host Kamie is riding solo to unpack the online discourse. From viral TikTok commentary to the bigger conversation about community in a post-Covid era, comparing your life’s progress to that of your friends, finding a middle ground and figuring out why is there so much hateration in this dancery? We also dive into your questions about engagement purgatory, the anxiety of posting big life updates and why major milestones can bring out both the best and the pettiest in the people around you.  Follow: @kamiecrawford Follow Kamie @kamiecrawford on TikTok and Relationshit @relationshit on IG for more, besties.
