Social Media Ain’t Your Therapist

We all spend way too much time on social media and how we use the platform differs, especially if you’re a younger or older millennial. Some people use it to flex and others use it to vent. Jaretta and Satta have dramatically different approaches to social media, contributing to why some of their online posts have led to offline arguments between the sisters. 

Join us as we discuss the upside and downside of social media, as well as:

• MySpace
• Gen Z
• Facebook
• Social Media anxiety
• Connection
• YouTube University
• Social Justice
• Algorithms
• Christian Cooper
• The Shade Room
