Selfies

SELFIES 

The tools and skills needed to create a self-portrait have changed over the years, as technology has allowed humans to proliferate them in extreme magnitude. So like, why are we so obsessed with ourselves? Em talks about the awkward social cues surrounding selfies, the vapid obsession, despite the commentary of shame and disdain about them, and general acceptance of our inherent need for social validation. We’ve got a history of selfies and selfie-devices, famous selfies, a brief nod to the fucking pandora’s box of body distortion that instagram and filters have unleashed upon the world and finally Em’s handpicked top fave deaths-by-selfie! (+ BONUS topical banter on the RPDR finale and John Depp)
