The Growing Hatred For Finance Influencers

The Growing Hatred For Finance Influencers

Recently, I've observed a gradual change in how people view finance influencers. What once served as a valuable educational resource now seems more like a platform that prioritizes views and affiliate marketing. This shift in perception is not unique to me; there is a growing online sentiment among followers who share this perspective. Why are people starting to think this way? What has led to this shift?

Support Me Here: https://www.patreon.com/PsychIRL The Whittaker’s story went viral back in 2020 when photographer Mark Laita, interviewed the family at their home. The video touched many and spurred successful GoFundMes to aid the family with their living expenses. However, a YouTuber by the name of Tyler Olivera recently scrutinized the legitimacy of the charity, questioning Mark’s honor. While Mark did fire back with receipts, the headache of the drama caused him to pull back from the family. Many now accuse Olivera of ruining the Whittaker’s lives, all to clout-chase and to make a sensationalist video.

The INFLUENCERS Who Bully Strangers for Views

Support Me Here: https://www.patreon.com/PsychIRL Imagine minding your own business, as you walk down the street. A stranger points a camera in your face, without saying a word. You don’t respond and he starts shouting expletives at you. You’re familiar with social media, so you know this guy’s motive. He’s one of those influencers who attempts to get a reaction out of people for views. EVERYONE HATES THIS TYPE OF INFLUENCER, but there is a type that gets away with this behavior. You may be thinking of the streamers that troll people like Jack Doherty or Johnny Somali. Nope, everyone hates them. Perhaps it’s a more low key type, like fitness influencers who film themselves at the gym and then get mad at people who walk in their shot? Nope everyone hates them too. The type of influencer that gets away with this behavior are called, “1st Amendment Auditors”. While there is some good in this community, it would be foolish to ignore the negatives. Today’s video will discuss these issues.

Matt Rife: The Disadvantages of Being Attractive

Patreon 02/14: The Disadvantages of Attractive Woman - https://www.patreon.com/PsychIRL Gaining over 18 million followers on Tik Tok, Matt Rife’s success eventually led him to a Netflix special. Known for being the “hot comedian” fans swooned over Rife’s crowd work, pushing his Tik Tok content into the millions of views. However, his rise came to a sudden stall when the internet turned against him, over one joke in particular. Perhaps this is the result time and time again of a star who rises to fame too fast, or perhaps beauty isn’t that advantageous after all.

Fidias: The Growing Delusion of Main Character Syndrome

One month ago, a YouTuber by the name of Fidias flew to Japan in order to film a video called, “I travelled across Japan For Free”. In the video he breaks several laws just for content like begging for money, stealing food, and sneaking on the train and bus without paying. This incident reveals a more disturbing trend on social media that seems to be growing. Individuals seem to be all catching a case of what pop culture likes to call “main character syndrome”. Many posters with this “disease” seem to create content at the expense of other people, treating everyone in their videos like an NPC or background character.

With over 20 million subscribers and a wheelhouse of the internet’s most talented creators, it is simply astounding that a media company can go from having a huge presence online to seemingly insignificant overnight. Whether you hate or love them, there is no denying that Buzzfeed was a media juggernaut around 2016 producing some of the most viral videos and getting hordes of users to take their quizzes. Gaining attention from the 20 something crowd Buzzfeed was a force to be reckoned with. But with such a stronghold on the online community and their numbers reinforcing that, how in the world did this massive enterprise lose their audience?

Why Dudes Hate Boy Bands and K-Pop

NJRQYrPXm4g | 05 Apr 2023

Why Dudes Hate Boy Bands and K-Pop

For over half a century, teenage girls have howled themselves hoarse at the sight of male pop stars. For about as long as young females have swooned over boy bands like One Direction, The Backstreet Boys, and the latest K-pop sensation BTS, young males have been (mostly) hating them. Not just ignoring or dismissing them, but actively despising them.

What Happened to the David Dobrik CopyCat? | Alex Warren

“Steal Like An Artist” by Austin Kleon: https://amzn.to/40dI6wD David Dobrik has many copycats, but only one has found ultimate success. His name is Alex Warren and he’s been accused of not only copying Dobrik’s videos, but his look, his mannerisms, and oh yes the laugh. Despite Warren being called out by the comments, big internet personalities, and even by Dobrik’s friends, the kid has managed to outmaneuver the criticism and ride the wave of internet fame. But the bigger question is why? Why would someone choose to go down in infamy as the biggest David Dobrik knock off? Despite the fame and money, it doesn’t seem worth it when it’s a known path to inevitable irrelevancy. Is Warren just a shape shifting sociopath or is there something else going on?

The Socio-political Nature of Horror Movies

Don't you hate when you movies are too political? Well what if I told you many of horror's biggest films have reflected social and political changes.

How Minimalism Got Toxic: The Dark Side

zfoRLgTlfQM | 15 Feb 2023

How Minimalism Got Toxic: The Dark Side

The project of lifestyle minimalism we see today can be seen as a response to the rampant consumerism of modern lifestyles across the globe in developed countries such as the US, Japan, and the UK. It seeks to reorganize our entire lives according to ideals of intentionality, autonomy, and competence. This begins with the things we surround ourselves with. Using Self-Determination Theory as a frame work, these are qualities that make us happy, that allow us to feel like we are living a life that we chose, and continually choose, on a day to day basis. In a 2020 paper, researchers interviewed people who chose to identify as living a minimalist lifestyle. They found that these people felt less pressure to conform or to keep up with competitive consumerist ethics. While this sounds like a movement everyone should be partaking in, minimalists in the community are releasing video after video about how this lifestyle got toxic. Today we will examine why.

How The Internet Re-Branded Mass Killers

How The Internet Re-Branded Mass Killers

There are spaces on the internet that have effectively rebranded the mass killer from awkward loner to a misunderstood edgy sigma male. As bizarre as this rebranding is for the average person, these communities have large followings and their glorification may have negative consequences. As an aside, It is important to dispel any myths regards who commits mass shootings. A common myth is that most of them are carried out by people who are psychotic— that is people who are mentally ill. Psychiatry professor Dr. Ragy Girgis of Columbia University states:  “The public tends to link serious mental illnesses, like schizophrenia or psychotic disorders, with violence and mass shootings. But serious mental illness—specifically psychosis—is not a key factor in most mass shootings or other types of mass murder. Approximately 5% of mass shootings are related to severe mental illness. And although a much larger number of mass shootings (about 25%) are associated with non-psychotic psychiatric or neurological illnesses, including depression, and an estimated 23% with substance use, in most cases these conditions are incidental.” FIND ME HERE YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/DesigningDonna Twitter: https://twitter.com/PsychedIRL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/psychirl/ CAMERA GEAR (Affiliate) BMPCC 6K: https://amzn.to/3xa73tO Canon 90D: https://amzn.to/38VKEEV LENSES Sigma 18-35mm F1.8: https://amzn.to/2vbLv5K Canon 18-135 F3.5-5.6: https://amzn.to/2SZiaot Canon 10-18 F4.5-5.6: https://amzn.to/2SUcv2U AUDIO Sennheiser MKH 416: https://amzn.to/3nBtiXH Sennheiser MKE2 Lavalier Pro Set: https://amzn.to/2Pl5hmo CREW Video by Donna Writers Donna & Britt Carroll Editor Donna & Matthew Roe Cam Op and Sound Marygold and Jewel Martinez Main Sources: * Mass Killers: Inside the Minds of Men Who Murder by David J.

Why The Mr. Beast Genre Feels Stale and Boring

Why The Mr. Beast Genre Feels Stale and Boring

Mr. Beast’s influence on different kinds of content on social media is apparent, but there is mounting criticism of this type of content being soulless, sanitized, boring, and stale. Videos such as “The Mr. Beastificiation of YouTube” and “Money killed YouTube, Here’s how we fix it” aptly describes this sentiment. Regardless, Mr. Beast’s view count and even the view count of his alleged copycats seem to counter this argument entirely. So called “boring content” doesn't get millions of views. So today, we explore if this critique holds any grounds or if it actually comes from a community of jealous YouTubers unable to compete in today’s money centric, social media landscape.

Influencers Glamorizing Cities May Lead to Bad Urban Planning

Influencers Glamorizing Cities May Lead to Bad Urban Planning

The story of the successful influencer is a familiar one. One day they were making videos in their bedroom, the next they’re a star propelled by a video that went viral. Typically, the next step for this influencer is often a move to a city such as Los Angeles, New York, or as of recent Austin, Texas. There seems to be a common theme among young stars who stumble upon internet fame. They HAVE to leave the suburbs in order to succeed. While the move is innocent and natural, this glamorization and romanticization of city life may undermine current Urban planning movements for walkable cities not so centered around cars.

Why Are There no Women in Jackass?

Everyone loves a good thrill; whether that be a scary movie, a tough hike, or rollercoaster. These activities are enough to get the heart pumping, but at the same time they’re safe. However, there are a select number of individuals who seek thrills that are extreme to the point that the activity puts the participant at the risk of death. Skydiving, BASE jumping, and urban climbing are just few examples of this extreme risk taking. These thrill seekers seem to be going beyond the basic human instinct of survival. Why do they do this? And why are these individuals disproportionally male? In this video we look at something called the “Crazy B*stered Hypothesis”.

Binge-Watching Shows Is Making You Lonely

XT_Z4HsHkNk | 14 Nov 2022

Binge-Watching Shows Is Making You Lonely

Binge watching shows makes you lonelier. It sounds like an outrageous statement but, a report by Telstra found 1 in 2 Gen Z and millennials reported feeling regularly lonely. This figure is significantly higher than that of previous generations. Another survey by Cigna found 73% of Gen Z workers to feel this way as well. Though these surveys do not address binge-watching and streaming services directly, I believe this new generation is experiencing loneliness due to technology shifting to cater to the individual. The shift of TV to streaming services is one of many technological advances that follows suit.

At 12 years old, Bieber would sing songs from Aretha Franklin, Ne-Yo, Lil Bow Wow, and more. Although his voice earned him 2nd place, it also caught the attention of his current manager Scooter Braun. Braun and Bieber would work together, eventually launching his career into pop stardom at 16 years old. Bieber’s music was a hit with teen girls, branding him a heartthrob of his generation. From the iconic haircut to the cheesy love songs, the masses caught Bieber Fever. This was truly a dream come true for Justin and his mother. However, not everyone was so impressed with the pop star’s rise. As the 16 year old amassed a fan base, he also amassed an equal amount of dedicated haters. Every move began to be analyzed and criticized, his songs were parodied and made fun of, and legacy media also boarded the hate train. Today though, that vile disdain for Justin Bieber has dissipated. Individuals are no longer shunned for listening to Bieber’s songs. How in the world did that happen? How does someone who is so hated go to someone who is so loved? While it seems like an impossibility, many celebrities do it all the time. Bieber looks as if, he is going down that road as well. In today’s video we discuss that phenomena, the celebrity redemption arc.

Humans are complex and although these studies illustrate human tendencies, individual variables (as studied in a lab) do no exist in a vacuum therefore hard conclusions are difficult to infer. The studies presented in this video are down below. In the animal kingdom mating rituals seem very simple and based on two criteria, health and parental investment. As we’ve explored before, the same principle is applied to human mating. However, some argue that modern society has placed caveats on attraction and relationships. From social media all the way to the luxurious comforts of a civilized society, seem to have some sort of affect on this facet of life.

How David Dobrik Wins: The ONLY Tactic That Beats A Public Accusation

Sign up to Morning Brew for free today https://morningbrewdaily.com/internetimpact Sponsored by Morning Brew Congratulations! If you're a shady guy who is currently going through a public accusation, then you've come upon the right video. Today we are going to take a look at one of the most effective tactics that'll get you out of any situation when the deck is stacked against you...well it'll at least take some heat off. This simple tactic is to blame the victim. While many think they know what that term means, those same individuals still continue to fall into its trap without even realizing it. Don't believe me? This video will examine the spat between David Dobrik and former Vlog Squad Member (and friend), Jeff Wittek. The two have been in a public battle since Wittek recently seemed to turn against his former friend. With Wittke’s fans rallying behind him, Dobrik fell into hot water once again. However, David has already won because of this strategy. 0:00 Intro 3:12 Re-cap on Dobrik's controversy 5:44 Jeff's Story 8:54 The Mechanics of Victim Blaming: Fundamental Attribution Error 12:50 Painting Your Opponent as "The Other" 14:48 Where Wittek's public image was created 17:59 Fundamental Attribution Error in politics and current events 21:32 The Evolutionary Adaptation of Fundamental Attribution Error 22:43 How to Negate Fundamental Attribution Error 25:12 Community Participation FIND ME HERE YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/DesigningDonna Twitter: https://twitter.com/PsychedIRL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/psychirl/ CAMERA GEAR (Affiliate) BMPCC 6K: https://amzn.to/3xa73tO Canon 90D: https://amzn.to/38VKEEV LENSES Sigma 18-35mm F1.8: https://amzn.to/2vbLv5K Canon 18-135 F3.5-5.6: https://amzn.to/2SZiaot Canon 10-18 F4.5-5.6: https://amzn.to/2SUcv2U AUDIO Sennheiser MKH 416: https://amzn.to/3nBtiXH Sennheiser MKE2 Lavalier Pro Set: https://amzn.to/2Pl5hmo Shure VP83 LensHopper Mic: https://amzn.to/2HP0i9p MAIN SOURCES http://web.mit.edu/curhan/www/docs/Articles/15341_Readings/Social_Cognition/Ross_Intuitive_Psychologist_in_Adv_Experiment_Soc_Psych_vol10_p173.pdf https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/oct/22/uselections2004.usa

How YouTube ACTUALLY Created Mr. Beast: Manufacturing Influence

CREDITS: Motion Graphics - https://www.youtube.com/c/JayLaw Voice Overs - https://www.fiverr.com/jonbrattin https://www.fiverr.com/pat_golebiowski https://www.fiverr.com/blarock From YouTube's inception, we've seen different genres of content and creators rise and fall. While this phenomena is a natural occurrence in the world of entertainment (trends come and go), YouTube's almighty algorithm also plays an integral role in this process. The algorithm over the years has evolved with the sole purpose of commanding an audience and keeping them on the platform. From prioritizing click through all the way to highlighting watch time, YouTube adding these metrics had a massive impact on the type of creators being promoted. Each new iteration of the algorithm is building creators who will become more influential than the next. With the popularity of YouTuber Mr. Beast, it makes one wonder what YouTube is up to. What is it about his content that causes the algorithm to promote his videos?

STOP Falling in Love with Your Viewers (Watch BEFORE Starting a YouTube Channel)

William Osman released a video titled, “I’m Done” where he details one downside about being a YouTuber. He explains that even though the comments he receives are 99% positive, there is something about that negative 1% that really bothers him. Today, we go over his video and why I think problems like this are attributed to an unhealthy parasocial relationship creators have formed with their viewers.

Male vs Female Gaze: How Media Profits From Your Gender

Male vs Female Gaze: How Media Profits From Your Gender

DISCLAIMER: The information in this video are generalities and should not be taken as a fixed rule. Although many of the studies show certain results, there is no way to test and observe ancient humans. So, the conclusions in a number of papers are theories as to why humans may behave the way they do from an evolutionary perspective. This is done by observing other animals and modern day humans. As a result, evolutionary psychology is often reductionist and can fail to take into account social factors. My point is don’t go using evolutionary psychology as an excuse to cheat or something LOL. Additionally, although "Male Gaze"/"Female Gaze" are terms coined by Laura Mulvey, we will be discussing both terms from the perspective of the Tik Tok trend. The beauty and personal care industry for men and women is a multibillion dollar business. While some of that is spent for reasons of self satisfaction, a large amount is spent to attract a mate. There’s just one problem. Unless you date the same sex, sometimes what you think is attractive about yourself isn’t what the opposite sex is attracted to. This phenomena is commonly known as the male vs female gaze. The male gaze describes what men typically view as attractive in men and women. The female gaze describes what women typically view as attractive in men and women. This has sparked discussion all over the internet about what causes these differences in opinion. Today we will be examining the possible cause of this difference by analyzing the male and female gaze from an evolutionary perspective.

Jennette McCurdy: How Hollywood Controls The Child Actor

Jennette McCurdy: How Hollywood Controls The Child Actor

Check out Jennette’s Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/JennetteMcCurdyOfficial One of the largest children’s shows to hit the 2000s was a sitcom on Nickelodean called, ICarly. This comedic sitcom was arguably one of Jennette McCurdy’s biggest roles, landing her a plethora of opportunities in the entertainment industry. Because of this, it leaves many wondering why she would walk away from a tremendous amount benefits by not partaking in the 2021 reboot. On her podcast and many other interviews, McCurdy explains how damaging acting as a child was for her mental health. This damage has caused her to leave this career path indefinitely. She has been vocal about her opinions on how fame can destroy the well being of a child. It could be how the stereotype of the “crazy former child actor” comes to fruition. This leads to the question though, are all child actors doomed to face the same consequence?

How I predicted David Dobrik's "Downfall" 1 Year Ago

See my prediction here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWgZ77ntyc8 Last year I made a video showing you how to spot influencer "downfalls" from a mile away. This video was called "How Shane Dawson Actually Met His Downfall" where I described how Shane went from top creator to leaving the internet indefinitely. I was so confident in this method that I decided to predict another influencer that would soon be facing this dilemma. That influencer was David Dobrik. Fast forward to 2021 and here we are. My prediction was correct. This video explains how I did it and how you can do it too.

Check Out Jay Law's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/JayLawrenceFCP In today’s age virality seems to be one’s golden ticket to riches and opportunity. What was once perceived as a place for basement dwelling outcasts, the internet has gone mainstream and virality, a sort of “career goal”. This unusual desire by a new generation has allowed for the rise of platforms that promise a chance of just that, but what is the reality of internet fame? Will it really solve our problems or create more?

The Advantage of Being Attractive: Alex From Target

Like the story of how Audrey Hepburn was discovered, a lot of people fantasize about being spotted by a famous casting director when going about their day. What’s different today is the internet has made that entirely possible with a click of a button. Whether you’re on Instagram, YouTube, or Tik Tok the content you put online has the potential of going viral. This leads to a higher chance of someone important seeing it and asking you to star in their major project. Although not comparable to Hepburn, the modern day version of her story happened to this cashier at target, sending him to internet celebrity status overnight. At 16 years old, Alex became a meme known as “Alex From Target”. Despite this he has disappeared from the internet today. What happened? Were his looks not enough to keep his online followers?

How Frenemies Reveals A Mental Health Misconception Perpetuated by The Internet

Frenemies is a podcast hosted by Ethan Klein of H3h3 and Trisha Paytas. The duo are an unlikely pair to start a business together as their first meeting started on a hostile note. Despite this, viewers loved it because of the back and forth conflict Ethan and Trisha continuously had.

How Social Media Controls You: The Social Dilemma

How Social Media Controls You: The Social Dilemma

The Social Dilemma is an American Docudrama on Netflix by Jeff Orlowski that explores the dark side of social media. The films credibility is bolstered considering, the individuals who talk about social media’s pitfalls are former employees of these platforms. It argues that our mobile devices have had negative effects on our mental health, body image, politics, and much more. Today, we discuss whether The Social Dilemma has merit or if it’s the mere projection of fear boomers have of things they don’t understand.

Why The End of Jenna Marbles Is The End of Authenticity

On June 25th, 2020 Jenna Marbles released a video called “A Message”, announcing she would be leaving her YouTube channel indefinitely. This decision came after a number of viewers demanded an explanation for her past content. Not only was this situation sad because a beloved creator was leaving the platform, but it also marked the end of authenticity.

How Joji Reveals The Dark Side of Fame

How Joji Reveals The Dark Side of Fame

Last year, a poll conducted by Harris and Lego revealed that the number one dream job of kids 8-12 in China, was Astronaut. In the US and UK, it was YouTuber. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be a youtuber, but I think that survey unmasks an increasing obsession with fame in Western countries. Critics often warn of the impending narcissism the youth will display. One interesting notion was from Joji’s music videos. His music videos from 2020, may reveal a hidden message about fame and the celebrity.  Find me Here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/DesigningDonna Twitter: https://twitter.com/designingdonna Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/psychirl/ Main Sources: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v97FPN2US2o https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/07/american-kids-would-much-rather-be-youtubers-than-astronauts/ https://www.researchgate.net/publication/233667622_Being_a_Celebrity_A_Phenomenology_of_Fame https://www.cell.com/current-biology/pdf/S0960-9822(05)00093-X.pdf https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/432a/51ae6e67a9c7fdb7b97c4917da96bb3140cf.pdf CAMERA GEAR (Affiliate): Canon 90D: https://amzn.to/38VKEEV LENSES: Sigma 18-35mm F1.8: https://amzn.to/2vbLv5K Canon 18-135 F3.5-5.6: https://amzn.to/2SZiaot Canon 10-18 F4.5-5.6: https://amzn.to/2SUcv2U AUDIO: Sennheiser MKE2 Lavalier Pro Set: https://amzn.to/2Pl5hmo Shure VP83 LensHopper Mic: https://amzn.to/2HP0i9p

How Shane Dawson Actually Met His Downfall

It seems like it was only yesterday when fans considered Shane Dawson a beloved figure. These days he seems to be public enemy number 1. That’s no surprise once you learn what kind of controversy he’s going through. However, what makes this situation strange is that he’s apologized for this before. As a matter of fact, the apologies were well received at the time. Today, we’re going to discuss how this cancellation is different.

The constant hate some YouTubers get baffle me sometimes. One case I’m thinking of particularly is Jojo Siwa. Jojo Siwa is a 17 year old girl who creates content geared towards young kids.

The E-Girl Epidemic

About 7 months ago I did a video discussing the dynamic between an E-Boy and their obsessive fangirls. Due to popular demand, we’re going to be reversing the roles and discussing the dynamic between an E-Girl and their obsessive fanboys. Judging from other creators who have done videos about this, this topic seems to be quite controversial. Today we will be discussing why and the reasons E-Girls have an overwhelmingly male fanbase.

Gary Vaynerchuk: Inspiration or Imposter | A Deep Dive Into "Hustle Culture"

If you’re no stranger to entrepreneurship and the internet, you know the name Gary Vaynerchuk. He’s been associated with many self made entertainers, Casey Neistat, Jake Paul, Tik Tok star Charli D’Amelio, and traditional celebrities like Jessica Alba. Vaynerchuk’s success is very apparent and inspiring to many young entrepreneurs. His main mantra to achieve this is to “work hard”. This simple message has been praised, but also criticized by opponents. Many argue his content promotes toxic productivity, comes from a place of privileged, and is unhealthy. Though Vaynerchuk is just one piece in a large puzzle coined by the term hustle culture, he’s certainly one of the largest names in this genre people criticize. In this time of uncertainty especially, does Vaynerchuck’s message still hold up or does his advice come from a place of privilege.

Why Fans Turned on IDubbbz FT. ViloniousTV

Why Fans Turned on IDubbbz FT. ViloniousTV

Public outrage is one of those unfortunate events that you may face if you have any sort of presence online. I’ve always had this theory though that there are some people who are immune to it. Ian Carter or IDubbbz was one of those people that fit the mold, in my mind. Recently, the drama that has befallen him because of his girlfriend has proven my theory wrong. Of all the things he’s said and done in the past, this was the situation that turned a significant amount of his fans against him.

What's Happening in LA During the COVID-19 Pandemic? (MARCH 14-19)

The purpose of this video is to document the effects of COVID-19 on Los Angeles and its residents. Although I am not a conspiracy theorist, I think it’s important we see the perspective from individuals going through this, rather than solely from mainstream media. Because MSM tends to sensationalize things (yes YouTubers do this too), I think it’s beneficial for regular people to share what they’re doing during self-quarantine (spending time with family, their worries/opinions, what’s going on in their city…etc.). I know for me at least, it helps me feel less alone and anxious to know how other people are doing during this event. This video is not a typical analysis video. The events filmed take place from March 14-19.

How This Boring Sandwich Went Viral

The Popeye’s chicken sandwich went viral in 2019 and it’s quite interesting seeing a normal looking sandwich go viral in a social media world. Social networks have impacted restaurant discovery in a way where places are sought out due to novelty, aesthetics, and in some ways notoriety. So, how then can “boring” looking food “make it” in 2020?

With his first program, “Edfluence”, Paul attempts to teach his viewers how to become social media famous. No one is quite sure what has happened to the program. Now, Paul has launched “The Financial Freedom Movement”, something that is perhaps designed to teach individuals how to make money and “escape the 9-5”.

What Happened to These YouTubers? | A Deep Dive Into Burnout

YouTuber Burnout was a big talking point in 2019. Though much of the conversation has fizzled away today, it is still a recurring problem for many creators. Christina Maslach, a leading researcher of burnout, has examined this phenomena in several professions. Maslach’s work has seen burnout to occur in healthcare, activism, and more. Through years of analysis, her research team has identified 6 indicators that predict when an individual may burnout. Interestingly enough, these indicators are all seen in the work that comes along with being a youtuber.

Jenna Marbles has stayed consistent with her style of content for 10 years. Normally, it seems like not adapting to the platform can result in a loss of viewership over the years, this isn’t the case for Jenna who has over 20 million subscribers and still draws in millions of views. How is this possible? The advice to any aspiring YouTuber is of course the same, be yourself. Hmm will this advice still work today or is this some overrated platitude?

What Can Happen When Your Video Goes Viral: Media Companies to Watch Out For

Small to mid-tiered youtubers face a unique problem when a video goes viral. Though obviously amazing since the video has gained traction, it comes with the possibility of numerous companies contacting the creator about the video. These media companies often take advantage of these creators who often know little about the rules of the platform.

Why Fans Can't Get Over This BreakUp: BFvsGF | Parasocial Relationships and Celebrity Couples

Fans being upset and disappointed in a celebrity relationship ending is a natural development, but over time viewers start the process of acceptance. Judging from the responses on current uploads by Jesse and Jeana, that process seems slow to approach. When we look at another couple for contrast, we see a differing reaction from the audience. Fans of David Dobrik and Liza Koshy have seemed to move on from their break up in 2018, easily? So what exactly is the difference here?

Why Filthy Frank Had to End: The Branding Curse

His real name is George Miller, but he’s been gaining success as Joji. Joji is a mucisian known for his lo-fi/hiphop songs. He draws crowds by singing about love and heartbreak, but before this he was Filthy Frank. Filthy Frank may have been the most offensive show on the internet. Though often mischaracterized, the channel was loved by many who understood the humor. Upon Miller’s rise as an artist, the Filthy Frank venture had to come to an end. People often wonder why this had to happen or if the show could exist today. Nevertheless, Joji is gaining a fan base who have no idea about his past work as a YouTuber. How will they react?

The VSCO Girl Epidemic | Fashion and The Zeitgeist of an Era

I’m a little late with this trend, but in my defense you should be use to that by now lol. If you’ve been around the internet, chances are you’ve come across “The VSCO Girl” or at least heard about her. What exactly is a VSCO Girl? The VSCO girl describes a fashion trend/lifestyle often followed by Gen Z teenagers. This trend/lifestyle has a distinct look that is easily spotted on places like Tik Tok and Instagram. Because of its popularity, it has become (in my opinion) one of the most meme’d fashion trends of 2019 in close competition with “The E Boy”. What exactly has led to the VSCO Girl epidemic? We discuss that in today’s video.

Our fascination with extraterrestrial life has been going on for a long time and this has been made very apparent in our media. Are we really the only intelligent form of life in the universe? If not, are they hostile? Would they be as smart as us? Perhaps they’re among us. Or maybe we’re already secretly working with them. With these beings in our books, movies, and music, it was only a matter of time that aliens were going to be turned into memes.

The "Cute Boy" Epidemic

So, there’s this new “style” going on that seems to only exist on Tik Tok and Instagram. It’s commonly identified by painted nails, dark clothing, chains, hair parted down the middle, and a lot of “sad rap”. Males who follow this particular style or trend are known as Eboys and they’re taking over the internet. All they really do though, is dance in front of the camera. How have they gained popularity? Perhaps it’s talent? Perhaps how attractive, teen girls perceive them to be plays a role into how successful they are on social media.

It’s been over a year since the Tanacon disaster, and what’s Tana Mongeau up to now? She’s marrying infamous vlogger, Jake Paul. Their marriage may or may not be fake. Let’s face it. It’s probably fake. To top it all off, she finally became a featured creator at VidCon and is doing a show with MTV. Looks like things worked out in the end for Mongeau. It’s crazy to think that just a year ago, the internet was angered by Tana’s failed convention. Criticism was coming in left and right from creators and viewers.

Here’s a short fun one, on my thoughts about Instagram. Ever since the app was launched in 2010, instagram has cultivated its own culture of cliche photos.

Click https://skl.sh/psychirl to get 2 months of Skillshare for FREE I looked at over 100 youtube channels and entered their data on an Excel sheet.

How The James Charles Drama Actually Manipulated The Viewers

How The James Charles Drama Actually Manipulated The Viewers

The beauty community, some say it’s a world of liars, snakes, social climbers, and fake friendships. Recently, James Charles has been accused of backstabbing not only the woman who has helped him tremendously in his career, but his close friend. Tati Westbrook released a 43 minute video detailing James’s disloyalty by promoting a competing brand and his alleged predatory behavior towards straight men. The video threw the internet in a rage against James, but was it all the truth? Or was this some sinister plan to manipulate the viewers?

The Slenderman and Our Dangerous Relationship with the Internet

Donate to Research efforts for Mental Health: http://bit.ly/brainandbehavior Unfortunately, this video will probably be demonetized and suppressed because of subject matter. Despite this, I still thought the story was the best way to bring awareness to mental health this month. May is mental health awareness month and although the conversation has become more open, there’s still more that can be done. Today we’re talking about “The Slenderman Case”, where 2 12 year old girls attempted to take the life of another 12 year old in order to please the fictional character Slenderman. The case made national headlines because of the girls’ ages and their motive. Some blame the internet and creepy pastas, some blame the parents, and some blame mental health. Though this case has ended with 2 young girls throwing away their lives, we can all learn something from this tragic event.

What the End Of The "Casey Neistat Style" Reveals About YouTube CopyCats

What the End Of The "Casey Neistat Style" Reveals About YouTube CopyCats

Casey Neistat is a New York City vlogger that influenced the ecosystem of YouTube immensely. Neistat brought his filmmaking background to the “Vlogging” genre. He implemented elements such as time lapses, montages, DSLR cameras, and more. These new techniques were so unique many were inspired by his style. As a result, a number of youtubers applied Neistat’s techniques to their own niches in order to fit their narrative. There are quite a few individuals though, who blatantly copied everything Neistat did. This video will discuss the difference between copying and inspiration.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve liked a few. Despite this, there is a number that people have found “cringey”. In fact, many have created videos dedicated to discussing why YouTubers make such bad music. Sometimes, I even dread when my favorite youtuber announces they’ll be coming out with a new song. However, there is one channel I ALWAYS look forward in getting a song from. This channel is Epic Rap Battles of History. They don’t evoke that same “cringe” feeling I often get from certain YouTubers. Why is that? Today we discuss this topic. Because I’m critiquing YouTuber’s for their rapping skills, feel free to critique me for mine as well LOL.

How The Thirst for Views Destroyed The Rewired Soul

How The Thirst for Views Destroyed The Rewired Soul

I really feel like I owe it to my viewers to do this video. Many of you were disappointed with the interview/collaboration I did with The Rewired Soul, a couple months back. With the help of Dara Tah (critic of Chris) and Nate Smith (generally feels Chris’s content is positive), I attempted to give you as much of an unbiased analysis as possible. Chris Boutte of The Rewired Soul has come under controversy as of late. The drama surrounds the mental health and drama community on YouTube. Chris has been accused of partaking in very unethical practices on his channel in regards to mental health and an individual’s boundaries. In addition many claim he is a drama channel masquerading as a mental health channel.

David Dobrik is a Slovakian born YouTuber who started his online career on Vine. At the end of 2014 he moved most of his efforts onto YouTube, creating a unique style of vlogging the platform has yet to see. His current content reflects his work on vine, with fast paced editing and quick jokes. He also has his friends perform comedic stunts and social experiments. These antics only last several seconds to a couple minutes, on his videos. All these antics are then put together to form a vlog that is usually 4 minutes and 20 seconds. Over the years, his stunts get crazier and crazier. It has left many to wonder how David’s friends are persuaded to do the tasks in his videos. Today we will be exploring that topic.

ImJayStation Quits Being Straight | How To Use Anger to Gain An Audience

ImJayStation Quits Being Straight | How To Use Anger to Gain An Audience

It seems like someone’s career ends every week, but what if I told you controversy actually benefits some people? See back when I was a much smaller channel, I use to think drama/commentary channels were in cahoots with “how do I say this nicely” cringey channels. Because while they were criticizing these channels for having such bad content, nothing would essentially happen. While the drama was happening, both channels would grow. Let’s take Jake Paul for example. The internet roasted him for his song “It’s Everyday Bro”. Judging from the dislikes, you’d think Jake Paul’s career would be done for. But you actually see an upward trend. Channels who criticized him are seen with that same trend. Now, we see a number of creators trying to do the same thing, using anger to gain an audience. One person attempting to do that now is a creator called ImJayStation.

The Mental Health “Fraud”

The Mental Health “Fraud”

There has been an increase in videos regarding mental health. It has led some to question whether these videos are created for the right reasons. Some have speculated that these people are just doing it for the money/views, while others go as far as saying that it trivializes actual mental health issues. A channel by the name of The Rewired Soul has been accused by many of using mental health in order to get views. Today, I interview him about that and his thoughts on the state of mental health and the YouTube community.

What the "Expose" of David Dobrik Actually Reveals About Cancel Culture

px7WOAZveic | 05 Feb 2019

What the "Expose" of David Dobrik Actually Reveals About Cancel Culture

Last week, I made a video about cancel culture. The main premise of the video was to showcase the trivial things people get offended by these days. Due to that topic being sensitive, a minority of people misunderstood my message. Many misconstrued it as “public criticism of all sort should be frowned upon”. This is not the case. Today, I want to clear that message up by examining the latest person to be “canceled”. We will be looking at the drama between Trisha Paytas, Jason Nash, David Dobrik, and what Trisha has attempted in order to “cancel” the two. Hopefully my thoughts will be better understood by breaking down this latest example of “cancel culture”.

"Old" YouTube Videos That Would Be OFFENSIVE Today

"Old" YouTube Videos That Would Be OFFENSIVE Today

It seems like someone is being “cancelled” every month when an old tweet or video surfaces of them, saying something offensive. Of course some of that is deserved, but that’s not the point I want to bring forth with my video. My question is more, “how long can we hold a person accountable for offensive social media posts”? Is there a time limit? Does age matter? Is what being said matters? More importantly, are we forgetting that people change. Humor also changes. Another thing that frustrates me about “cancel culture” is that it sometimes happens when someone is presented with an opportunity. Because of that, the motives for taking that person down seems like it’s for the wrong reasons. You aren’t concerned about their morals. You’re concerned about their success.

How They Sneak In (Almost) Anywhere FT. Elixir

I find it interesting when someone sneaks into a venue with a bit of social engineering, or changing someone’s perception of you. Maybe you wear costume that makes you look like you’re doing something important. Or maybe you get in backstage by changing the wikipedia page to make it look like you’re family of a famous band member. Why does security constantly break protocol for events such as these? Perhaps this is something that interests me because I know, I could never do it.   Find me Here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/DesigningDonna Twitter: https://twitter.com/designingdonna Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/psychirl/ My Gear (Affiliate Links): Camera - Canon 70d: http://amzn.to/2oT8PhB Lav Microphone: http://amzn.to/2H8i6K3 Lights: http://amzn.to/2FeLHVZ Main Sources: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCr0WmNVbl1dYXL89V84ZtOA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOYLCy5PVgM https://www.apa.org/monitor/2012/11/embarrassment.aspx

The REAL Story Of PewDiePie VS T-Series | The End of YOUTube

Because PewDiePie vs T-Series wasn’t covered in this year’s rewind, I decided to talk about the events myself. It’s been a rollercoaster of a ride seeing the subscriber gap so close, then other creators swooping in the last minute to save PewDiePie. Today we’re going to discuss why this battle between PewDiePIe and T-Series is so important to creators.

What the "Fall" of H3H3 Actually Reveals in the Drama/Commentary Community (w/Dara Tah)

What the "Fall" of H3H3 Actually Reveals in the Drama/Commentary Community (w/Dara Tah)

YouTube has cultivated some of the best creators in the digital age, mainstream media could never replicate. But with that, comes the manipulative content with the sole purpose to garner views at the expense of the audience. Some very fake and others plain problematic, but when the community sees a problem on the platform, many are quick to speak out. One of the most prominent figures Ethan Klein from H3H3 Productions. Ethan has gained massive credibility for pointing out ridiculous videos on the internet. By winning a landmark lawsuit against Matt Hoss, some would even go as far to say that h3h3 solidified fair use and free speech for a number of creators. However, as of late, the community has began to turn against Ethan calling him a hypocrite, arrogant, money hungry, and someone who throws his friends under the bus. Though Ethan does deserve some of the criticism he has been receiving, this also reveals something deeper in the drama and commentary community.

Emma Chamberlain: How Super Fans Are Created

Emma Chamberlain is having this astounding effect on YouTube and you can see this through her fans. Left and right, other creators are being called Emma copycats simply for having self deprecating humor, using exaggerated edits for comedic effect, and liking iced coffee. Emma does have her own personality that really separates her videos from the rest, but all those things never originated from her. What we’re seeing is a group of very dedicated fans. They watch everything Emma is in and defend her no matter what. This type of dedication is regardless of numbers. What is it that makes these fans so dedicated?

The Fandom in LOVE with SCHOOL SHOOTERS

The Fandom in LOVE with SCHOOL SHOOTERS

The true crime community on Tumblr is a place for people who are interested in learning about the psychology of serial killers and mass murderers. Inherently, there is nothing wrong with taking an interest in this. Although some would argue there is a fandom that takes it too far. A number of people in the true crime community idolize and romanticize mass murderers. One particular group they romanticize, the school shooter. Please do not bully or harass anyone featured in the video.

Joana Ceddia's SECRET to 1 MILLION Subscribers in 3 Months

Joana Ceddia's SECRET to 1 MILLION Subscribers in 3 Months

Joana Ceddia has gone viral in the last 3 months (as of posting this video) and nobody can quite figure out why. The best way to describe her content is a relatable teen girl uploading whatever she wants. She’s almost the antithesis of every modern YouTube teenager on this site, making her more relatable to the average person. Her videos reminds me of YouTube in the early days, where creators would just set a camera up and talk to it. She’s gaining an audience and it’s all because of her personality.

10 YOUTUBERS WHO FAKE THEIR VIDEOS

10 YOUTUBERS WHO FAKE THEIR VIDEOS

The “influencer” has really taken the internet by storm. To a layman, the term influencer has a negative connotation. Probably brought on by the most controversial figures on the platforms. This image brings to mind an heir of overindulgent 20 year olds being rewarded for essentially, narcissism. But it’s a huge business that’s making a lot of people money, both the influencer and brand. In fact, the influencer lifestyle is so glamorized it’s a job a lot of young people strive for. All one would really need is a crazy idea and a camera. Though it may sound oversimplified, many do it every day for a chance of attaining or even sustaining that glamorous lifestyle. In fact many ideas are so outlandish, they’re fabricated to simulate reality for the purposes of going viral.

Ahhhh the YouTuber. What anyone would do to have a job like that. You probably recognize names such as Liza Koshy, David Dobrik, Shane Dawson, IDubbz, Peter Mckinnon, and Jenna Marbles. But every minute about 300-500 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube, and some of those hours are from talented creators you’ve never heard before, small YouTubers.

JacksFilms: How to Make Fun of YouTubers and Internet Culture

When something gets too popular, it’s bound to be made fun of. There are only a few YouTubers that manage to do this in an entertaining way. One of the best is JacksFilms. In the commentary community, “Insult Comedy” is a type of humor that is popular in getting a point across. Though it can be a very useful tactic, Jack takes a different approach. What makes his critiques special is that, they fall into the realm of parody and anti-humor.

Dehumanizing YouTubers: Inside Backlash w/ Bobby Burns

Dehumanizing YouTubers: Inside Backlash w/ Bobby Burns

Video we did on Bobby's Channel: https://goo.gl/RJRWJ4 Camera #2 - LifeLikeJosie: https://goo.gl/gJWguC On my channel, I often analyze YouTubers and Internet culture. Despite me not saying anything too overly negative, there is a level of dehumanization that happens. I for example never analyze why friends lose jobs or receive a pay-cut, and then upload a video about it. I have however, theorized why Youtubers may be losing views. When a YouTuber by the name of Bobby Burns contacted me (whom I’ve analyzed before), that human element came back. This video will discuss the dehumanization of youtubers, and take a look into what happens during controversy.

Bobby Burns: YouTube VS. Happiness | Is Being Yourself Enough?

Bobby Burns: YouTube VS. Happiness | Is Being Yourself Enough?

Sponsored. Affordable private online counseling: https://www.betterhelp.com/psychirl One of the running themes that may seem like my channel is based on in regards to analyzing youtubers is, “forget the YouTube rules to growth. Just be yourself, and you’ll be successful”. You see this message in my videos about Shane Dawson and PewDiePie, but thinking this way can be dangerous. Although their success can offer aspiring small youtubers valuable lessons, we have to remember that many have followed in their footsteps and have failed. We often put too much emphasize on studying how someone got to the top, but too little studying people who didn’t make it. This is called survivorship bias. So, despite the fact that many of the biggest creators on YouTube have broken the “focus on a niche” rule, we can’t ignore the fact that many more have broken this rule too and failed. A point even more overlooked is creators who do stick to a niche, but become increasingly demotivated, uncreative, and ultimately unhappy, and in my opinion this is most identified in the creator, Bobby Burns.

How PewDiePie Dominated YouTube While Breaking the Rules to YouTube Growth

How PewDiePie Dominated YouTube While Breaking the Rules to YouTube Growth

PewDiePie also known as Felix Kjellberg not only has changed the face of gaming, but has done so breaking what I think is the most important rule every YouTube growth guru preaches, sticking to one type of content. If you’ve ever looked into growing your YouTube channel, you’ll know one of the most important rules, is to pick a niche. Despite this rule, being caged in a niche has caused a lot of youtubers to feel unhappy about their content, but breaking away, oftentimes leads to a loss of viewership. Though Felix has broken the number one rule to youtube growth, he has managed to continue to keep his audience engaged, and reign number one, as the most subscribed creator on the platform. After reaching 1 billion active users, on June 20th, 2018 Instagram announced their latest feature, Instagram TV. What exactly is Instagram TV? In short, it’s a way to watch long form vertical videos (up to one hour long) on your phone. It’s simple. If you already have an Instagram account, you don’t need to worry about a thing. You’ll be notified when one of your favorite creators uploads a video and you can watch it natively from the instagram app. However if you want to be a creator, you’ll need to download the Instagram TV app. Many have called this new feature YouTube’s biggest competition, and with good reason.

Philip DeFranco vs Mainstream Media | Who Do You Trust?

Philip DeFranco has been uploading videos on YouTube for over a decade. In his early days, his channel was called sXePhil where he spoke about news and his opinions on those topics. Phil's content has evolved and he has gained the reputation of one of the most trusted news outlets on the internet. With that said, because the Philip DeFranco show is based on YouTube there are a number of obstacles Phil encounters. In this video, we explore what separates The Philip DeFranco show from mainstream media. Find me Here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Designin...

The Shane Dawson Shoutout | 45,000 SUBSCRIBERS

First of all, sorry about the audio. About 2 weeks ago I made a video called, “Why Shane Dawson Deserves More Credit Than People Give Him”. After hours and hours put into that video, I was just happy to hit 3,000 views in under 24 hours. My subscriber count at that time was 14K and I usually averaged about 1,000 views in under 24 hours, so that alone was a success to me. Never in my wildest dreams did I think, Shane would actually watch my video. He did and was moved by it. It is such an amazing feeling when someone who has inspired you, tells you that you make good content. Find me Here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Designin...

Why Shane Dawson Deserves More Credit Than People Give Him

I don’t think people give Shane Dawson the credit he deserves. An outsider’s first instinct is to categorize Shane Dawson’s videos as “just for kids”, and people discredit him this way. It’s as if they’re saying his content isn’t sophisticated enough for adults. The problem is people have been saying that for over a decade. When other YouTubers have disappeared off the platform, creators like Shane Dawson have thrived and built businesses.

14 YOUTUBE CHANNELS LOSING SUBSCRIBERS: THE ART OF STAYING RELEVANT

I’ve watched creators on YouTube ever since I was in High School, which is around the 2007ish range. A lot of people have come and go. The relevancy of a youtuber is quite short if you think about it. If you have been around for as long as me, you’ll remember a channel called “The Station”. This channel was a collaborative channel between some of the biggest youtubers in 2008. A lot of small creators at that time were also afraid of this channel. They were afraid that these big creators were going to take over the platform. Of course, you know this isn’t true. A lot of youtubers from the station aren’t even around today. So, what makes someone stay relevant on YouTube? In this video, we’re going to discuss just that.

Why Jerks Always Win

Why Jerks Always Win

In almost every movie, the underdog confronts their childhood bully and beats them at the climax of the film. As much as we want this to resemble real life, that often doesn’t happen. In real life, we see the jerks getting ahead. From celebrities, leaders in business, to youtubers it seems like the jerks are winning. Why does it seem like stepping on someone is the way to get ahead? Is it possible to be nice and successful? In this video, I discuss just that.

VLOG SQUAD FANS DON'T LIKE TRISHA PAYTAS

This video was suggested by silversoulss, so big shout out to you! I’ve been watching a lot of David Dobrik lately and although there are so many people in the Vlog Squad to keep up with, I would say I’m pretty up to date. I have noticed a few negative comments about Jason and Trisha’s relationship. This usually happens when Trisha says something “outrageous”. Usually she says something that seems “too jealous”. Fans will then comment that “she needs to chill”. I’m not one that judges relationships online, especially youtube relationships.

I Called An "African Email Scammer" And This Is What Happened

I always get suspicious emails sent to my Yahoo email address which I rarely use. One day I had too much time on my hands, and decided to browse my spam emails. To my surprise I found several from different individuals in Africa. Some from Nigeria and some from Benin. They all had something in common though. They were all scams. All emails had this premise. Someone in Africa had found a large sum of money that rightfully belonged to me. We’re talking millions here. In Africa, someone had left me a million dollar ATM card. Keep in mind that I had several emails that said this. I’m either really wealthy in Africa or I’m getting scammed. Of course, these emails are scams. In order for me to get that million dollar ATM card, I had to send $60-$100 to have them ship it over to me. When I do this, they will conveniently disappear. In today’s video, I call these email scammers and here’s what happened. Find me Here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Designin...

SHANE DAWSON FANS DON'T LIKE BOBBY BURNS

SHANE DAWSON FANS DON'T LIKE BOBBY BURNS

Shane Dawson has recently launched a new Sunday show featuring his “hater” Bobby Burns. There isn’t quite a theme for this series yet. For example, Shane has his “theory” videos and he also has “WTF 5”. So far, we only know this as “The Bobby Show”. Though a majority of his fans love the show, there is a higher amount of negative feedback (compared to his usual stuff) on this series. Personally, I like both creators. I like the new Sunday show Bobby and Shane have put together, and I’m also subscribed to both people. I’ve noticed that some of Shane’s fans don’t feel the same way. In this video, I explain why that may be. Find me Here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Designin...

The Problem With Entrepreneurial YouTubers

The Problem With Entrepreneurial YouTubers

Essentially, all YouTubers are entrepreneurs, but there are a few that classify themselves as entrepreneurial YouTubers. These creators make content such as, “how to make money from home”, “how to make money from your YouTube channel”, “how to invest in crypto”, etc. All those topics fall within the entrepreneurial realm. Notable creators that make topics of this sort are Grant Cardone, Tai Lopez, and Tim Ferris. Now, I’m not saying that entrepreneurial YouTubers and these videos are scams or just plain bad, this video will explain how there’s a certain TYPE of entrepreneurial YouTuber I don’t like. In the grand scheme of things I like these types of creators. Gary Vaynerchuk is one of my favorites. Find me Here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Designin...

WHY DO ALL YOUTUBERS MAKE THIS VIDEO?

OhLraJU82X8 | 20 Feb 2018

WHY DO ALL YOUTUBERS MAKE THIS VIDEO?

Almost every time a youtuber makes it big, he/she makes the video I like to call the "honest" video. In this video the youtuber mentions how unhappy they are with the content they are creating. Actually, it may not even be limited to that, they go through some kind of struggle that hinders them from producing their best quality videos. Because of that feeling, they open up to their audience about it. I want to be clear, that I'm not making fun of or calling out any youtubers with this video. The purpose of this video was to explain that I've noticed larger creators making videos such as this. I'm genuinely curious at knowing your thoughts on whether or not this is a natural psychological occurrence in these creators or something else.

I LOST $3000 OF CRYPTO (XLM)

Where to buy the Ledger Nano S - https://www.ledgerwallet.com/r/da3a Unless you're a very careful crypto investor, nearly everyone has made a mistake in the space. Here's mine. It's no lie, that crypto can make you a lot of money if you play your cards right. Now, what really scares me is playing your cards right, making good gains, and then having to move those gains from your crypto currency wallet onto an exchange. If you for some reason made $100,000 and it's all in your crypto wallet, it's kind of terrifying thinking about a typo potentially wiping that huge amount of money. I was no where close to that amount of money, but I did lose a good portion of Stellar (XLM) in that exact way. Exchanges: Coinbase - https://www.coinbase.com/join/59bc250...

RESPONDING TO ANGRY BUZZFEED FANS

RESPONDING TO ANGRY BUZZFEED FANS

6 months ago I uploaded a video describing my interview experience at the Buzzfeed office in Los Angeles. Though I did make a few jokes, in my opinion the video was pretty straightforward about the whole process. Of course, I had a few critical comments but nothing really major. Most of the comments on this Buzzfeed Interview video were positive and supportive, but a few were angry, hateful, and troll-y (how do you spell that?). Even though I explained it multiple times (in the video, description, pinned as a comment, and to a few people), a few Buzzfeed fans still took my video as a Vendetta against Buzzfeed even though I didn't mean it to be. Again, it was simply an explanation of the interview process. Instead of addressing the comments one by one and typing the same answer to each individual over and over again, I'm going to respond to these hate comments in video format. Also, yes of course. I understand that some of these comments are merely critical comments. I will answer those too!

Mary Ainsworth Strange Situation Explained | Attachment Styles

Mary Ainsworth Strange Situation Explained | Attachment Styles

Mary Ainsworth's Strange Situation is a Developmental Psychology Study that investigates the patterns of attachment in infants one to two years old. Have you ever noticed the individual differences of attachments people have in their relationships? Why are some people considered cold and distant while others are considered obsessive and clingy? This can be explained by a theory developed by psychologist, John Bowlby in the 1960s. Inspired by his work as a child psychiatrist Bowlby was interested in the dynamic between a mother and infant. The mother and infant bond is the earliest form of attachment one can experience. Because of that, he hypothesized that the mother-infant bond would be a determining factor to the quality of bonds later made in adulthood. In the 1970's Mary Ainsworth, a student of Bowlby investigated this further by studying individual differences in attachment styles. Her famous study "The Strange Situation" found three types of attachment styles between mother and infant. These styles are secure attachment, insecure avoidant, and insecure ambivalent. In this video, we discuss all three and how they determine the relationships you form as an adult. In later studies, research has found a fourth type of attachment style called Disorganized/Disoriented attachment. Upon reunion with the mother/caregiver, the child "would run towards their parent and then maybe freeze as they got closer. Some children would even pull away from their parent, run away, or even lash out violently". This is often seen when there is neglect in the household.

ARE SOCIAL MEDIA COURSES WORTH IT?

ARE SOCIAL MEDIA COURSES WORTH IT?

Are social media marketing courses worth it? It's the hot new job and fairly new to the working space. Individuals have realized how much of a potential social media marketing has to grow their business. As a result, there is a growing need for social media marketers. Now, a lot of young people are scrambling to get at this job, but how do you get it? In fact, it's so new that not a lot of schools offer classes that go into depth in this field. It is also always evolving. By the time you graduate, whatever you learned becomes outdates fast. There is an alternative to traditional school though, and that's taking an online course or a fast in person class. Are these social media classes worth it though? Do you really need a social media certification to get a job? In this video, I discuss just that.

Maslow's Hierarchy Of Needs Explained

Maslow's hierarchy of needs aims to explain why do we do the things we do. Why do people work at a job they don't like? Why do people eat pizza? Why do you help others? In 1943 Abraham Maslow proposed a theory of motivation explaining human behavior in a paper called “A Theory of Human Motivation”. He described what is essential for human development in a pyramid like pattern. He then fully expressed his ideas in a book called " Motivation and Personality" in 1954.

Taking the time to learn about, research, and invest in crypto was worth it. Where to Buy Bitcoin: Coinbase - https://www.coinbase.com/join/59bc250...

Wanting Another Job After 9 YEARS | Motivation

I'm definitely not an expert on life nor am I a motivational speaker. I was asked to do a video about motivation and switching careers after 9 years so I answered.

I GOT 1,000 YOUTUBE VIEWS FROM FIVERR | YOUTUBE MARKETING SCAMS

I GOT 1,000 YOUTUBE VIEWS FROM FIVERR | YOUTUBE MARKETING SCAMS

I just got a little more than 1,000 views from a vendor on fiverr for $6. Now, it wasn't for this channel. I simply wanted to see how "real" these services are. You can see the results of that experiment here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqX-80-coaA&t=3s The market for getting someone views is a real thing. That's why you have online services where you can pay $2 to get about 1,000 views. The thing is. those services aren't real and those views are practically meaningless. They show the increased number on your video but it does nothing to your subscriber count and engagement. The evidence for that is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnYCgiHgulk&t=71s Now, many creators are under the impression that the only people who buy views are "wanna be famous people" aka individuals looking to get famous quick. Though this is true, there's another category of people looking to get views and those people are small businesses. A viral video is a powerful way to get exposure for your product. They hire social media managers or digital agencies in hopes of finding the secret. Many times these services are too expensive for them so they look for cheaper alternatives. Every once in a while, I get emails from these "cheaper alternatives". These alternatives claim to be REAL marketers who will market your youtube video. There are also many of them on fiverr. In this video, I test those services out. Find me Here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Designin...

QUARTER LIFE CRISIS | BEING 25 IS STRESSFUL

QUARTER LIFE CRISIS | BEING 25 IS STRESSFUL

Being 25 is stressful...well for some. Some individuals describe a phenomena that happens called the quarter life crisis. Everyone has heard of and knows what a midlife crisis is. This event can be described as similar to that, a midlife crisis at 20. So, what is the quarter life crisis? The events at this age varies from person to person. Some may be continuing education, some may be getting married, finding a new job, starting a new relationship, etc. Being 25 holds a lot of variance and there isn't one commonality from person to person. The same goes for the quarter life crisis. Not everyone who is 25 experiences this crisis. In fact some studies show that such a crisis doesn't exist, but for those who do feel it, what are the quarter life crisis symptoms? A lot of individuals facing this describe themselves as feeling lost and left behind. It comes with anxiety, stress, and mild sadness. The loss of routine and direction often disappear within this stage and if individuals can not find it, they may feel a mid twenties crisis.

People Are Paying Money to Be Locked in a Room | Escape Room

Try the Real Escape Room we did here: https://www.escapedom.com/ A new and growing form of entertainment has been growing since 2007 called Escape Rooms or Real Life Escape Games. The basic premise of each is, you and others will be trapped in a room. Your group must figure out how to Escape the room. This room is filled with puzzles and clues that will ultimately lead to your escape. You must use teamwork, cunningness, and speed to solve the escape room puzzles and win the game. The average length of each game ranges from 30 - 60 minutes. If you do not escape the room in the allotted time, you lose. These live escape rooms were first developed in 2007 by Takao Kato in Kyoto Japan. He was inspired by the popularity by of online escape games and decided to bring that idea into the real world. In 2012, the concept came to the U.S. and other parts of the world. Now there are numerous Escape Room Locations where patrons can pay to have themselves locked in a room.

BUZZFEED DIDN'T HIRE ME BECAUSE OF THIS QUESTION

BUZZFEED DIDN'T HIRE ME BECAUSE OF THIS QUESTION

Apparently saying straight white males are cool, will cost you the job at Buzzfeed. Totally joking and I have to say that so no one takes me too seriously. I have nothing against Buzzfeed. I still take the occasional quiz and watch the occasional "Try Guys" video, this video is merely me telling you my experience with the whole interview and job application process. So, I follow this twitter page that tweets every time there is a social media or digital media job that opens up. I saw an opening for a Video Intern for BuzzFeed Los Angeles. I clicked the link and saw about 20 openings for other jobs on the BuzzFeed site, so I thought why not? I make videos. Why not apply to become a video intern at BuzzFeed? I've definitely heard all the negative press BuzzFeed has been receiving lately all the way from race baiting to fake news, but this wasn't really a concern of mine because I didn't plan on making that kind of video if they were to hire me. From what I've read, you're pretty much free to make the kind of content you want as long as its not too far right. I planned on keeping it as non-political as possible. Now I've see all the "Why I Left BuzzFeed" videos, and what concerned me was how much I could be involved in creating other content for my own youtube channel and perhaps other brands. That was a problem I decided I would worry about later. I filled out an application, created a BuzzFeed styled video for them, and turned it in online. After about a month or so, I heard back from them again and did a video interview for them. This interview involved no humans. I sat in front of a webcam and answered pre-set questions within a timed limit. After that, I moved on to the next round for an in person interview, where I faced 5 BuzzFeed employees who would grill me about my internet knowledge. I think I did okay answering question after question, until they asked the one that would lead to my ultimate rejection.

HOW MUCH SMALL YOUTUBERS MAKE | LESS THAN 5K SUBS

HOW MUCH SMALL YOUTUBERS MAKE | LESS THAN 5K SUBS

How much do you make per subscriber? How much do you get paid for doing youtube? How many views until you get paid? These are some of the many questions people have about the youtuber. We've all seen the success stories of former hot dog sellers turned youtube star millionaires. They make it sound super easy to make money on youtube. All you need is a camera, a whole lot of dedications, and those weekly uploads. Get all of that done and you too can get paid by youtube. Is it that easy though? How much (other than 0) do smaller creators make? I'm a small youtuber and I make bank...said no small youtuber ever. So, I have around 3.5K subscribers (during the filming of this video) and I've been on youtube for around 2 years, with 121 videos uploaded. To be frank with you, subscriber count has nothing to do with how much you get paid. Now, it does have an indirect effect in that because you have more subscribers you get more views, leading you to have more money, but the bottom line is that views are what equals money on YouTube.

How To Take Better Naps Using Coffee

49VcDHNpYmU | 15 Jun 2017

How To Take Better Naps Using Coffee

There's this thing called the coffee nap, that's supposed to be better than taking naps or drinking coffee alone. The theory of this caffeine nap says that if you drink coffee or caffeine before a nap, you'll feel more awake and productive after waking up from that nap. How does that work, you might ask? First, the trick to coffee naps is to drink the coffee or caffeine quickly. Because of this, taking a shot of espresso might be better than chugging coffee. You also have to be mildly sleepy in order for this to work. By that I mean, you have to feel like you're in need for a nap. If you don't, the coffee may just wake you up. While you're awake a molecule called adenosine builds up and binds to brain receptors, causing the sleepy feeling. Caffeine competes with adenosine binding to brain receptors as well, instead making an individual feel more alert. Sleep is something that naturally breaks down adenosine. So, a theory presented in a video by Vox says that if you're breaking down the adenosine in your sleep while coffee is in your system, caffeine won't have to compete with the sleepy molecule. This would theoretically make you feel more awake. How to take a coffee nap: Normally, it takes 10 to 20 minutes for the average person to fall asleep. It takes 10 mins for the caffeine to kick in, but 45 mins for it to have its full effect. So, you'd have to drink the coffee in less than 10 mins. You would also have to wake up in 20 mins so you don't enter slow wave sleep, which is a phase of deep sleep that makes it harder for you to get up. The study also says that if you can't fall asleep, resting still has a beneficial effect. music by Dyalla Swain https://soundcloud.com/dyallas Find me Here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/DesigningDonna Twitter: https://twitter.com/designingdonna Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/psychirl/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PsychIRL/ Sources: https://sleepfoundation.org/sleep-topics/napping https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9401427 http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-16964783 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20164566 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YOwEqGykDM&t=6s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaI5LWj6ams&t=75s

SHOULD YOU BUY INSTAGRAM FOLLOWERS AND LIKES

_BYlzTQsVVU | 25 May 2017

SHOULD YOU BUY INSTAGRAM FOLLOWERS AND LIKES

Buying Instagram followers and likes is pretty easy. In fact, I bought 100 followers for $3.00 and around 3,000 likes for about $40.00. That's a tremendous amount of growth for an account less than 6 hours old. How the Fake Account is Doing: https://www.instagram.com/socalsocoolphoto/ Follow Me for Real: https://www.instagram.com/psychirl/ First of all, why is Instagram growth even important? For someone looking to build their brand, growth on Instagram is important due to how much engagement Instagram has when compared to other social media platforms. A study by Forrester Research found that Instagram users were 58 times more likely to like, comment, or share a brand’s post than Facebook and Twitter Users. Also, in the grand scheme of things, when was the last time you saw a commercial? In a world where you can fast forward through an ad or use AdBlock, Instagram is important because Ads can be disguised as content through influencer marketing. The viewer is then actively choosing to pay attention to this ad. Because of this importance, brands and individuals are now swarming to Instagram to grow their accounts. There's even been a growth in tutorials in how to grow your account as fast as possible, but there is one thing that people rarely talk about. Buying Followers. Buying Likes. Buying Video Views. Should you buy Instagram followers and likes? Will it actually help you grow your account? This video is an experiment to answer those questions. Also, I am not mentioning the site of where I got these likes and followers because I do not promote buying them. Music by Dyalla Swain https://soundcloud.com/dyallas

Being Unhappy with your Job | UNCUT

I probably should have thought something out and practiced a little bit before filming this, but it was 3:00 am. AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT. I got a video request from a viewer, asking me to do a video without edits. You're going to hear a lot of um's, uh's, likes, and a lot of pausing. I've been exposed!!!! Anyway, since you didn't give me a topic to talk about, I decided to talk about careers and life after college. Good luck trying to piece my thoughts together. You're going to need it.

Why is Bubble Wrap so Satisfying?

v_rCmz4RjCs | 04 May 2017

Why is Bubble Wrap so Satisfying?

Transcript: One of my fellow creators reached out to me and asked me to do a video on why Bubble wrap is so satisfying. Ready for an unpopular opinion? I don’t find popping it that satisfying. Okay maybe its a little bit satisfying but I’m not one of those people who will sit there for a good 5 minutes popping bubble wrap I received with my package. So, sorry the fake Brit I have no idea why bubble wrap is so satisfying. End of video. Bye. Just kidding. Don’t go away just yet. With a quick Google search, I found a lot of upset individuals on Bubble Wraps new unpoppable design. What monster would do such a thing? Sealed Air Corporation has been the original seller of bubble wrap since 1960. Recently, the companies sales have been going down due to competitors who make a cheaper alternatives for package protection. Bubble wrap is ultimately too bulky and inefficient. Due to that the makers decided to revamp bubble wrap. Their new product, iBubble Wrap. Retailers save space as they fill the air in themselves. You no longer get this. The only downside? It doesn’t pop. Thus we get an upset internet mob. #FirstWorldProblems. Actually popping bubble wrap is closely associated to fidgeting. Studies have shown a correlation to it and increased attention span and information retention. What exactly is fidgeting? Its repetitive movement that ultimately doesn’t have an end goal. For example, shaking your leg, twiddling your thumbs and my personal favorite pen clicking. In a South Georgia study for example, students were allowed to use stressballs during instruction and independent work. The data collected from the study showed the students to be distracted less and their scores in writing paragraphs improved. Other fidget like tasks have had similar results. Doodling is shown to increase focus and information recall. Individuals who handwrite notes are also shown to retain more information than those who type notes on a laptop. Alright so fidgeting has its benefits, but why is there a correlation between fidgeting and those benefits. Why does our body say “hey pen clicking will help you focus better”. That’s almost like saying, “closing your eyes will help you run faster”. One theory is health related. Our modern world requires us to sit for long hours at a time. Whether its work or school, you’re sitting. Too much sitting is linked to heart disease, diabetes, and premature death. Not being able to sit still or being fidgety may be a way of our bodies telling us to get up and move. Another theory is evolutionary. Back in ancient times when we were all hunter gathers. We had to worry about predators a lot. That worry would eventually subside when we’re able to flee from these predators or kill them. Both solutions exert a lot of pent up energy and it’s only then ancient humans were able to relax because they knew they’d either killed or escaped the predator. Fidgeting could be that ancient pent up energy trying to release itself in the modern world where we don’t have to worry about predators.

What Your 20s Is Actually Like

What Your 20s Is Actually Like

To sum things up, your twenties is a rollercoaster. Actually, a rollercoaster may have more stabilization than life in your 20s. This time period may be the most exciting and the most scary period in one's life. You're at the age where you're finally gaining independence and having fun, while also getting slapped in the face with adult responsibilities. Whether you're in your early 20s, mid 20s, or late 20s, things are happening fast. Some of your friends are getting married, some are having kids, some are just finishing school, some may be killing it in their career, and all these events leave you to wonder where you fit in. Is this what a quarter life crisis feels like? Should I be dating someone right now? Should I have a stable career by now? It's all confusing but totally normal. In this video people in their twenties share what actually going on in their life.

INFP | Personality Tag

I was tagged by Maria from doitwithhelp to do this Meyers Briggers Personality Test from 16personalities.com For decades researchers have designed and redesigned personality tests in hopes of understanding human personality. As of now, no test is fully capable of breaking down personality perfectly, but one of the most popular tests a lot of people seem to like is the Meyers Briggs Personality Test (MBTI). This test is composed of several questions the user has to answer. Your answers determine what your personality type is and can be broken down into 4 letters 9 (in this case 5). My results showed that I am an INFP-A.

The History of Psychiatry and Gay Conversion Therapy

Pof90w7CLI0 | 02 Feb 2017

The History of Psychiatry and Gay Conversion Therapy

In the 1900s many sought out treatment for their friends, children, family members for homosexuality, but psychiatry and medicine didn’t universally see it has a mental illness. Prominent psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud wrote a letter to a mother who sought treatment for her gay son. Unfortunately this view would soon change in the 1940s after Frued’s death. Other psychoanalysts such as Sandor Rado criticized Freud’s views. He deemed homosexuality as unnatural and ultimately going against nature. Other psychoanalysts began to follow such as Irving Beiber in 1962 who believed the cause was from a distant father and overbearing mother. These new theories introduced a number of “Gay conversion therapies” in which the goal was to reduce homosexual behavior and increase heterosexual behavior. Homosexuals could be involuntarily committed to psychiatric facilities by their families. They were subject to a number of practices such as castration, aversion therapy. This included taking nausea inducing drugs while watching same sex erotica so they associate nausea with same sex desires, or electroshock while watching the erotica. Other practices included lobotomies where a pick like instrument was inserted through the eye socket and into the brain. Patients were often left severely disabled. Now, all while this was happening there was growing amount of research that countered the theory of homosexuality as pathology. Researchers found homosexual behavior occurring naturally in a percentage of animals. Also, the research used for the support of conversion therapy concluded homosexuals to have greater psychological disturbances compared to heterosexuals. A problem with those studies were the biases in the population. The participants recruited for those studies were from prison. Evelyn Hooker found no difference in psychological disturbances between straight and gay men, when her study sampled men that weren’t in prison. This resulted in a split from the psychological community. Many groups who advocated for keeping “Homosexuality” as a mental disorder split and formed small groups such as NARTH, EXODUS and JONAH, continuing conversion therapy. The years following led to many legal battles and some of these organizations shutting down. In Michael Ferguson vs. Jonah, the New Jersey civil court was sued for deceptive practices. Some patients claimed the therapy not to work, reporting they were still attracted to the same sex. They also had to pay for mainstream therapy for the damages done in conversion therapy. Conservative groups in Welch v. Brown (ban of therapy in CA) fought against the ban of conversion therapy saying that it is a violation of free speech, freedom of religion, and privacy. Today, the law bans conversion therapy for minors in 5 states: California, Oregon, Illinois, Vermont, New Jersey, (and D.C). 45 states have no laws on conversion therapy. New York is also included on this list.

Overcoming Loneliness

LG-E78gHhwY | 12 Jan 2017

Overcoming Loneliness

More people are reporting loneliness than they have, a decade ago. Though technology allows us to connect with people all across the globe, why has loneliness increased and how does one get over it? One theory is that technology reduces boredom (this theory also happens to be my own lol). Instead of facing boredom and being forced to start a conversation with a stranger, we know are able to turn to our phones to reduce boredom. For the most part it works, but we do miss out on real world social connections this way. Eventually these missed friendships add up to increased loneliness. Now how do we reduce loneliness? First, there's a difference between "alone" and "lonely". "Alone" is the condition something is in. I am "alone" in this room because no one is here. "Lonely" is a sadness that comes from feeling like you have no support system. So by definition you can be alone and not feel lonely. In turn, you can also feel lonely in a crowd full of people. With that said, this video will go over how one can overcome loneliness. These are personally how I deal with loneliness. Everyone is different so what may work for me, may not work for you.

Should Self-Driving Cars Kill to Save its Passengers?

Should Self-Driving Cars Kill to Save its Passengers?

With mass research on self-driving cars, humans driving their own car may be obsolete in the next decade or two. This comes with many benefits such as a reduction in traffic and accidents due to human error. We would no longer have a driver under the influence or one that is too tired. With companies like Google and Tesla already coming out with semi-autonomous vehicles, this future is very near. Despite the enormous amount of good autonomous vehicles will have on society, accidents will not ultimately disappear. In fact, there are a few cases where a semi-autonomous vehicle mistakes a white vehicle for the sky. As a result, the self-driving car keeps going and kills the driver. Manufacturers can however improve their system so that the car can recognize obstructions better and save its passengers, but if saving its passengers require it to kill another life? Self-Driving cars will have to face similar moral dilemmas eventually. Which lives should these cars prioritize? MIT has created a test in which humans decide just that. In today's video my friend Josh and I will take that test and discuss which lives the autonomous vehicles should save and why.

Locus of Control: Dealing with Disappointment

1OqUUykBqHo | 17 Nov 2016

Locus of Control: Dealing with Disappointment

Getting over a disappointment can take a lot out of you, but people deal with it. Some can over it fast while others need more time. This video is my take on disappointment and how I deal with it. I personally believe the best way to take on disappointment is through your Locus of Control. In 1954 psychologist Julian B Rotter developed something called a Locus of control scale or continuum. A person can lie on any point of this continuum. On one end is the internal locus of control and on the other is the external locus of control. This scale ranks how you see results come into place. When someone lies closest to the "External Locus of Control" point, they are more likely to see events as a result of fate, chance, or any other environmental factor other than themselves. For example, if they were to fail a test they may blame the teacher for being too difficult or the test being too hard. When someone lies closest to the "Internal Locus of Control" point, they are more likely to see events as a result of themselves. For example, if they were to fail a test they may see it as a result of them not studying hard enough. Furthermore, research has found links to a person's Locus of Control to other behavioral patterns. People nearer to the internal Locus of Control spectrum are more likely to take responsibility for their own actions, work better at tasks when done at their own pace, and aren't easily influenced by other's opinion. With that said, people face disappointment no matter what their Locus of Control is. The difference may be how they deal with it and this may be determined by where they lie on this scale. Someone with an Internal Locus of Control may choose to take action instead of dwell on disappointment for too long because they believe they have the power to change their outcome. Someone with an External Locus of Control may feel helpless and dwell on disappointment longer.

What Failing Vlogtober Does to your Brain

Uploading Daily is such a struggle. I had high hopes for Vlogtober and my goals were to upload daily and to get rid of this perfectionist mentality I had. Regularly editing takes me a very long time resulting me in missing my scheduled date. I decided to challenge myself to daily uploads in order to defeat my perfectionism. I failed miserably, but learned a lot. I had too much coffee during the filming of this video. Watch These Guys! They successfully uploaded daily for 1 month.

Can You Solve these True or False Questions?

DCg_E_-r0Vw | 22 Oct 2016

Can You Solve these True or False Questions?

From the creators of Pythagoria and Aurora Nights, comes a new game called True or False. I actually don't know what that all meant, but it was on the game's trailer so I figured it'd be reputable. You can find this game on steam and play it yourself! In today's video, my friend Josh and I play "True or False" and try it out for ourselves. That's a "Let's Play" right? We came across outrageous statements that may or may have not been true. It was our job to figure out the right answer. We put our own twist to this popular game from Steam and decided to do a head to head. The first one who answers 5 wrong loses the game. It's a good thing the questions are true or false because I suck at trivia.

Filipino Parents Saying I Love You

1rF7YqH4H3o | 07 Oct 2016

Filipino Parents Saying I Love You

I noticed a really odd quirk about myself. It's hard for me to say, "I love you" in a serious tone. For a while, I thought I had some sort of problem because the thought of saying those words to another person made me uncomfortable. Watching movies and seeing how easily strangers that met each other within a month could say that phrase so easily made me think I had some deep rooted issues I needed to work on. I thought it was just me, but soon noticed it in my sister, family, and pretty soon extended family. It turns out expressing your emotions in Filipino families isn't really done that often, unless it's anger lol. I soon read articles that this is actually common in most Asian families. From personal experience, my mom doesn't like saying "I love you" to me that often. She does show her love in other ways like making a home cooked meal or paying for school. She shows her love through actions. Since I can't speak for all Asians, in this video me and my cousin discuss Filipino families and saying "I love you".

Who I am Behind the Camera

In the previous video, I shared some of the times I failed. This is where it has led me so far. This is who I am outside of YouTube. I began interning as a social media manager for a luxury vacation rental company. 6 months later, I got offered a part time job. That led me to doing other stuff for the company like taking photos of the homes and creating drone videos for promotional use.

5 Love Languages Quiz

sInnCFje68s | 27 Sep 2016

5 Love Languages Quiz

The 5 Love Languages is a theory by Dr. Gary Chapman, author and marriage counselor. According to Chapman, there are 5 universal languages of love. Individual prioritize love languages differently. How you prioritize them determine how you show and want to be shown love. Dr. Chapman has created a test online that configures which love language is important to you. In this episode of Psych Discussions, my cousin and I take the 5 love languages quiz in order to determine what our love languages are. According to Dr. Gary Chapman, an individual tends to lean toward 1 or 2 love languages and ranks them as most important to them. These love languages are: 1. Words of Affirmation: "Verbal compliments, or words of appreciation, are powerful communicators of love. They are best expressed in simple, straightforward statements of affirmation" 2. Quality Time: "For some people spending time with loved ones is their preferred love language. Whether it be a quiet lunch or an afternoon walk, spending quality time and being the focus of their undivided attention leaves them feeling satisfied and comforted more than words" 3. Receiving Gifts: "Not all people who enjoy receiving gifts are "materialistic" this just means that for these individuals love is equated with a tangible gift. " 4. Acts of Service: "These individuals want their partners to notice that their own responsibilities are grand and sometimes daunting and that a helping-hand every once-an-a-while shows love and care." 5. Physical Touch: "everyday physical connections, like handholding, kissing, pats on the back, and any type of re-affirming physical contact."

Youtube: Creators, Advertisers, and Censorship

FJ4g8OZ5Dg4 | 20 Sep 2016

Youtube: Creators, Advertisers, and Censorship

Welcome to the #YouTubeisOverParty! Grab some drinks and a snack as we celebrate the end of YouTube! Hooray for censorship! If you didn't catch that, I was once again being sarcastic in the description of my video. I'm a little late on the game here, but now that the "YouTube is being Censored" hype has gone down, I figured people can now talk about this issue logically. For the past couple of weeks, I've seen larger creators talk about the demonetization of their videos. A few days later, some call this "change" fair and some call this "change" censorship. Before giving you my opinion on the matter, I'd like to give you some background information on myself so you know where I'm coming from. I am a small youtuber with about 1,458 subscribers (sub count at the time of upload). Each month, I earn about $6-$8 through the ads placed on my videos. When, I'm not creating videos I work as a social media manager for a small luxury vacation rental company. Through that job, I've had to work with a budget for advertising. I used that budget to pay for trueview ads on youtube to advertise our company. Because of that, I have 2 perspectives on this matter. I have the perspective of the creator and I also have the perspective of the advertiser. Not counting sponsorships or affiliate links, a main source of income for a creator is money from the advertiser. The advertiser pays youtube, who then pays the creator a percentage of the advertiser's money. As a result the advertiser's ad is shown on a creator's video. To keep this whole ecosystem going, advertisers HAVE to get sales from these ads they pay for. If not, they will place their ads some place else (blogs, TV, etc.). I think this whole censorship ordeal is YouTube's way of keeping advertisers on the site. "Controversial' videos unfortunately are not generating any sales because advertisers don't want to place ads on there. To be honest with you, I think a lot of youtubers are bias on this matter because this is how they make money. I of course, understand it from their point of view. In order to create good content you need to make a living, but the fact of the matter is the people who pay for your content aren't making sales off of it. Because of that, you aren't entitled to demand revenue from youtube just because you get a number of viewers. Do you think your viewers would pay for your content through Patreon or buying your merch? If companies really wanted to place ads on their videos, they'd come to you personally rather than through youtube (sponsorships). This in my opinion is actually a good thing. This isn't censorship, it's a notification process. If your video has tags that "aren't advertiser friendly" you can appeal it (if it is actually advertiser friendly) or create content that is advertiser friendly (if you're doing youtube for the money). This is ultimately how "free" content works. Nothing is actually free.

How Stereotypically Filipino Are You

Hoy! Kumain ka na? When you have a lot of work to do, the best thing you can do is take a BuzzFeed Quiz because that will get your work done much faster. In case you didn't catch my sarcasm, I was being sarcastic. In today's Psych Discussion, we examine an article (quiz) by Buzzfeed. How Stereotypically Filipino are you? My cousin and I were born and raised in California. Our parents on the other hand were born in the Philippines. Because of that, there has always been a mixture of culture growing up. You have the typical American world outside (although Los Angeles is a different culture all by itself) and the Filipino world inside your home. Though we're probably more Americanized, we decided to see how stereotypically Filipino we were by taking this quiz on Buzzfeed.

Cognitive Dissonance (Part 2)

exe8WyI1C9w | 03 Sep 2016

Cognitive Dissonance (Part 2)

Cognitive Dissonance is when you have 2 conflicting beliefs that cause you discomfort or in other words, dissonance. You want to reduce that discomfort as much as possible so that your beliefs are consistent again. This can also apply to a conflicting belief and action or a conflicting belief and movement. For example, most smokers know that smoking is bad for you, yet they still continue to smoke. Some may justify their actions by saying they are only social smokers. Because of this belief their dissonance, is reduced. I talk about this more in detail in my video last week. You can find it here: Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyUyq52_KS0 This week's video is about how to use cognitive dissonance in a more practical sense and apply it into your real life. 1. Getting people to love your club or organization People associate something that costs a lot of money, takes a lot of time or effort to something of value. For example when you buy products like Apple or Gucci, you unconsciously think of it as very valuable due to the price. Granted that the materials used to make this are of higher quality, there are still individuals out there who are willing to buy a counterfeit item due to the symbolic value the brand has. In order to get someone to appreciate your club or organization, make the initiation process difficult, so that they associate it with a prestigious club that not many can gain access to. This is called effort justification. 2. When you want to persuade someone with a different opinion than you, make them partake in self affirmation. When someone disagrees with your values, your self-esteem and self identity is threatened. Humans are "supposed to be logical and rational creates", yet this other human isn't able to agree with you. When you make them partake in self affirmation, Steele and his colleagues found that more participants were open it opposing opinions. 3. If you want to make friends, ask them for a favor It turns out cognitive dissonance can also affect behavior. Bem's self perception theory states: people come to know their own attitudes, beliefs, and other internal states by inferring them from their own behavior and the circumstances under which they occur When you partake in some sort of behavior, it is theorized that your brain attempts to justify why you did that behavior. For example, when you help a stranger out of the blue you're more likely to like that stranger due to fact that your brain justifies why you helped the stranger. 4. If you want to build confidence in yourself, pose in a dominant pose for a minute or two. Just as I've stated above, cognitive dissonance can affect your behavior. There are poses that are universal. For example, when one is victorious they often raise their hands above their head. When one is feeling scared, they often make themselves as small as possible. Amy Cuddy and her colleagues decided to investigate whether the act of posing could affect an individual. They found posing in dominant poses for a minute or so affected how high of a confidence one felt.

What is Cognitive Dissonance Theory?

hyUyq52_KS0 | 20 Aug 2016

What is Cognitive Dissonance Theory?

Cognitive Dissonance Theory theorized by Leon Festinger states when we have two beliefs, actions, or sentiments that conflict with one another, we go through an aversive emotional state (or dissonance). As a result we try to get rid of the dissonance by having our beliefs align again. Basically, as humans we love consistency. When our thoughts aren’t consistent, cognitive dissonance theory states we do whatever we can to restore consistency. We do this in 3 ways. For example, I am eating chips and my goal is to be healthy. Those 2 beliefs or actions conflict with each other. In order to be healthy, I shouldn’t have junk food. Yet, I’m still eating it because it taste good. The first way we restore consistency according to cognitive dissonance theory is to change our behavior. I can either stop eating the chips to become healthier or I can remove “being healthy” as a goal so I can continue eating chips. The second way we can do it is to reduce the importance of one of the beliefs. I can change my definition of healthy. “By healthy, I mean being more active rather than changing my dietary habits”. I can also think, “chips aren’t that bad. There are other foods that are worse”. The third way to resolve cognitive dissonance is to gather information that outweighs the dissonance. I would gather all the benefits to eating chips and use that to convince myself that eating chips actually isn’t that unhealthy.

First Impressions DO Matter

4Pg7lrBTDpU | 13 Aug 2016

First Impressions DO Matter

We've all heard the saying, "make a good first impression" or "your first impression matters", but just how important are first impressions? In job interviews it may be apparent because your first impression, may be your only impression when trying to impress a prospective employer. In dates, first impressions may matter a lot when trying to court a suitor. Research has shown that first impressions matter a lot. When first meeting someone, your brain is a blank slate because you have no information on this person. Little by little your brain begins to piece this person together by how they walk, talk, their mannerisms, ext. With the information at hand, you begin to form an idea of what this person may or may not truly be like. Because this is all based on your first meeting, it may not be accurate. New studies have shown just how hard it is to shake a first bad impression.

Introvert Survival Guide to College

Introverts Unite...separately! College is a fun and exciting time. For most of you, you’re finally breaking free from the rules of your parents (most of them anyway) and doing things on your own. It’s also a scary time. You’re moving into a new environment where you know no one. How will I make new friends in college? How did I even make my old ones? Though those are common worries to everyone on the personality spectrum. This video will focus on the worries of introverts when heading off to college for the first time.

Experimental Design - Psychology

Wvd-oqAeBLA | 22 Jul 2016

Experimental Design - Psychology

The experimental design is a testing method commonly used to test hypotheses in research methods. Although used in all the sciences, this video will more focus on it being applied to psychological studies. This video highlights the experimental method in the infamous Facebook Study. Last Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uBeshFGN9c Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=designingdonna Twitter: https://twitter.com/designingdonna Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/donnayatz/ Articles: http://www.simplypsychology.org/experimental-designs.html http://www.simplypsychology.org/experimental-method.html http://www.pnas.org/content/111/24/8788.full Transcript: Welcome to Psych IRL. My name is Donna. Today I'm going to be explaining the experimental method to you through a study Facebook may be doing to you right now. The experimental design is the only design that allows you to identify cause and effect relationships. Let's take a look at the famous controversial facebook study as an example. Step 1 of the experimental design is to ask a question. In this case, "can someone's emotions by what their friends post on social media"? So, like I can be happy one minute, I log onto facebook, see my friends posting depressing stuff, and then I start posting depressing stuff. Step 2, Do background research. Studies have shown this emotional contagion in face to face interaction. Step 3 Formulate a Hypothesis. Predict what will happen based on the research you found. I think that if my friends post more sad things then I will be sad. Step 4 Experiment. Figure out your independent variable. This is the variable you will manipulate. In this case it will be emotional content expressed on facebook newsfeed. Next figure out your dependent variable or what you will measure. In this case it will be emotionality expressed in one's own status updates. Who your experiment will affect refers to the population. In this case, it's facebook users. We then take a sample of the population and randomly assign them into 2 groups, the control group or the experimental group. The experimental group will have the variable manipulated. Participants in this group will either have positive statuses shown to them or more negative statuses shown to them. this is the defining characteristic of what makes this an experimental design. You're able to randomly assign participants to either condition. If the experiment asked, "are males more aggressive than females after playing violent video games" then the independent variable would be males and females, but since you can't assign people to gender, this wouldn't be an experimental design. The control group will be used as a comparison to the experimental group. They will have the same number of positive and negative statuses shown to them. Step 5 analyze the data and make conclusions. So, people who had positive content reduced in their news feed, a larger of their words in their own status updates were negative and a smaller percentage of their words were positive. when the negativity was reduced the opposite pattern occurred. So, how did facebook get away with this you ask. Well you know that thing where you accept the terms and use when you first sign up. Yup, that pretty much gives them clearance experiment on you and other stuff. So, this is just a brief overview of the facebook study, if you want to read more about it, check out the article in the description below. I've also linked more articles about the experimental design below, if you're still confused. I will see you next time.

Pokemon Go Vlog

r31PHyn0U20 | 19 Jul 2016

Pokemon Go Vlog

"Pokémon Go is a free-to-play location-based augmented reality mobile game developed by Niantic. It was released in some countries in July 2016 for iOS and Android devices." My first experience with Pokemon dates back to 1998, when the TV show first came on air (I actually don't know the dates, but whenever it was released into the US is when I started watching). I, along with many of my other classmates soon began to be obsessed with collecting cards. That obsession progressed into the Game Boy games and then the movies. Over the years my obsession died. The Pokemon series continued on, but its target demographic was for a different generation. Years later, I hear news of an app called "Pokemon Go" being released. Now in my 20's, I didn't think much of it and to be honest, wasn't interested in downloading it. After hearing so much about it and how this obsession is taking over people of all ages, I began to become curious once again. The media has been swamped with news of Pokemon Go lately. Some news absolutely praise the app for getting people of all races, religions, and ages to get outside and come together to catch Pokemon. Other news tells a different story. Pokemon Go has have said to be responsible for car accidents and people walking off cliffs. As an old school Pokemon fan, I tested the game myself. This video is a Pokemon Go Vlog!

Shit People Tell Psych Majors

Being a psychology major has its academic challenges. Psych majors know the struggle of lab reports, statistics, and having to read over 100 pages of material the professor never went over. However, the general public views psychology a certain way that annoys the hell out of us, psych majors. These views are then converted into asking us annoying questions, we either know nothing about or don't want to answer. As a psych major graduate, I know all these struggles too well. This video will list 10 Annoying things People tell Psychology Majors.

Hiking Echo Mountain | Altadena, CA

Hiking Echo Mountain | Altadena, CA

Hiking Echo Mountain in Altadena, CA took more than 2 hours round trip. At about 5.5 miles, the trail was filled with amazing views of Los Angeles. The Echo Mountain trail itself wasn't too difficult in terms of terrain. Most of the trail is well maintained. There won't be much rock hopping or trekking through thorny bushes. In terms of steepness and elevation gain, the trail becomes a moderate hike. The approximate gain for echo mt. is about 1500 ft. At the top of the hike, you will run into the historical remains of an old hotel. In addition, you find out why its called Echo Mountain when you find the echo phone. In summation the echo mountain hike is a moderate hike. This is coming from someone who attempts to exercise regularly but fails lol. I recommend bringing at least 2 Liters of water and a pair of good hiking shoes. The trail gets busy on the weekends with trail runners and hikers, but the views at the top are worth it!

5 Qualities YouTube Celebrities Share

I actually now should be a celebrity, but I was 23 when I filmed this video so...In the past few years the term, "youtube celebrity" came into existence when regular folks who started making videos in their bedrooms suddenly created viral content. These once normal people became youtube celebrities, seemingly overnight. The public saw how much attention these youtube stars were getting. Soon money came from many areas such as sponsorships and advertising. So, what's the secret to becoming a Youtube celebrity? These youtube personalities have given advice on how they've made it to the top. Why then is it, that people who listen to that advice do not see their content reaching that level? Is it because these youtube celebrities don't know how they got their themselves? Becoming youtube famous is quite complicated. There isn't one specific formula that will guarantee you to reach the top. Becoming successful on youtube isn't as simple as searching, "how to become youtube famous". There are many factors on how each youtube personality got to where they are now. Though there isn't one defining factor to becoming youtube famous, there are common traits that youtube celebrities share.

Debut: Celebrating My Cousins 18th Birthday

If you're from a Filipino family or know of Filipino families, you'll know that turning 18 for a female is a big deal. This age symbolizes womanhood and is celebrated by something called a debut. For females, debuts are held when a girl turns 18. It is commonly celebrated with many symbolic traditions such as 18 roses, 18 candles, and 18 treasures. If you live in the US like me, this tradition can be compared to a sweet 16, though sweet 16s don't have many traditional rituals. This can also be compared to a quinceanera, which is the celebration of a girl's 15 birthday in many Latin American countries. Question of the Day: What did you do when you turned 18?

How to Get your First 1000 Subscribers

How to Get your First 1000 Subscribers

There are many channels that are dedicated to teaching you how to get more subscribers, get more likes, or get more views. These YouTube videos that teach you how to have a successful youtube channel prove their credentials by showing off how many subscribers they have themselves. Many of them give great advice about how to get more subscribers, but I've always wanted to hear from top creators themselves. In my opinion channels dedicated to YouTube growth for the most part, have a good amount of subscribers due to the fact that their content is highly searched. How do creators that solely do challenge videos, sketches, or talk about their personal opinions get subscribers? In this video, I will teach you how to get your first 1,000 subscribers. Specifically, this is the story of how I got my first 1,000 subscribers. This method may or may not work for you. I don't believe there is a specific formula for getting to the top. There may be broad rules, but following them doesn't guarantee you anything. If there was, many people would be there by now.

What is Mindfulness?

What is mindfulness? Recently, a lot of talk about this stress reduction practice has been popping up in popular culture. From mindfulness retreats to mindfulness yoga, this practice seems to be everywhere. Is this just a fad or is there some kind of scientific validity to mindfulness? Theories in positive psychology have examined mindful living and found positive correlations between it and happiness and wellbeing. Other studies have found that individuals who partook in mindfulness for health actually saw benefits and positive outcomes in their lifestyle. Mindfulness is defined as being conscious of the present moment.

5 Ways To Spot A Liar Fast

5 Ways To Spot A Liar Fast

This episode will tell you how to spot a liar in 5 ways. Sometimes we become suspicious of people's stories, but calling them out on a lie may be a bit embarrassing. According to several psychological theories there are many ways of lie detection that may help you spot a liar. The video will go over 5 signs that someone is lying. It will go over body language and speech patterns. In the end, ultimately signs of lying do not actually confirm that this person is lying. For example these behaviors are not seen in psychopaths or sociopaths. The only way to actually figure out if they are lying is by having a conversation where you explain why it feels like things aren't adding up.

10 Introvert Problems: Dating/Relationships

Dating while being an introvert can be tough. First, there are many misconceptions about dating an introvert. Many people call you shy, anti-social, quiet, stuck-up, etc. In reality this isn't true. Being an introvert simply means you need less socialization than others and you love your alone time once in a while. Because you like your alone time, introvert dating can be tough. You usually don't like things such as making phone calls or small talk, though essential in the dating world. This video will go over 10 introvert problems while dating and being in a relationship.

Racist Logic | Correlational Studies

AgKy0nWRM_U | 05 Feb 2016

Racist Logic | Correlational Studies

READ BEFORE COMMENTING In psychology research methods, correlational studies are often done. A correlation is defined as 2 variables having a relationship with one another. The problem with these studies are when the public takes them as a fact. For example, it is statistically shown that crime is mostly done by African Americans. That statistic has led some to believe that being black causes you to commit more crime, when in reality that is false. Correlation does not equal causation. Being black does not give you a biological pre-disposition to commit crimes. In correlational studies one must look at other variables. In this case, variables that must be looked at are poverty and educational levels. Despite this, don't take correlations as useless. When done correctly by examining all variables, they can tell you a lot of things. 0:49 What is a correlational study 1:20 Correlations in real life (examples) How to interpret a correlation coefficient +1 Positive linear relationship 0.3 to 0.5 Weak positive relationship 0.5 to 0.7 moderate positive relationship 0.7+ strong positive relationship 0 no linear relationship -0.3 to -0.5 weak negative relationship -0.5 to -0.7 moderate negative relationship -0.7+ strong negative relationship Last Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iVt5...

Competition | Ft. PT Barpun and Bits of Ben

The Psychology of competition has been around since the dawn of time. It is engrained in our nature to compete. Ancient humans have competed for resources and as a result the strongest survive and pass their genes on to the next generation. Though this type of competition seems to be eliminated from society as food is readily available almost everywhere, competition is still reflected on modern society. Modern humans see competition as entertainment in the form of sports. Cities back up their favorite teams and when those teams win, the city basks in their reflected glory. In this episode 2 youtubers will exemplify the psychology of competition by competing in 3 challenges from "minute to win it".

Shyness vs Introversion

wnhVPRzrwUg | 08 Nov 2015

Shyness vs Introversion

It was once believed that 25% of Americans were introverts. New research has shown that, that number can actually be up to 50%. This may be explained by clearer definitions of the difference between an introvert and shyness. Introversion and shyness are two different dimensions. Introversion refers to how much socialization one needs and how tolerant one is of socialization. Introverts do socialize and are happy to do so, but do so less than their extrovert counterparts. They may experience a drained feeling after too much socialization. Shyness is the fear of interacting with others. The difference between the two is that introversion is not fear, it is the preference of how much socialization one needs. Shyness is a feeling one feels. It is possible to be a shy introvert or a shy extrovert.

Why Kids Egg Your House

Why Kids Egg Your House

Every Halloween a few unlucky residents find their houses to be egged. Others may be the victim of other pranks such as "ding dong ditch" or "TPing". What causes someone to pull these pranks? Why do people egg houses and why does pop culture portray these occurrences to happen on Halloween? One factor that may explain this is "mob mentality". This theory also explains why peaceful protests break out into riots or why sports fans destroy their town. Mob mentality deindividuates a person, making them lose self awareness. Because of this, the person becomes the mob and begins acting upon what the mob does. Researches tested the theory of mob mentality and deindividuation (Ed Diener 1976). A bowl of candy with a sign that said "take one", was place outside a house. In any normal situation kids came in groups or individually. A researcher stood outside the house and either individuated the kids (making them aware of themselves) or left them anonymous. Results indicated that the kids who broke the rule most, were kids who weren't individuated and were in groups. They also found that they could increase kids following this rule if they placed a mirror by the bowl. The mirror reminded the kids of their individuality. Because of that, deindividuation had no effect.

How Do You Vlog

How Do You Vlog

Vlog: a combination of video and blog. a blog in which the postings are primarily in video form. In this video, I discuss the problems of vlogging and how hard it is to hold a camera in public while talking to it. In the world of the internet, daily vloggers can be seen documenting their day. Some of the highest paid youtubers choose this medium and make money off of it. Often they are criticized for making money so easily. Trying this myself gave me a whole different perspective on the work. I found it difficult to confidently hold a camera while continuing with my daily routine. At the end of the day, my perspective changed. If anyone has some vlogging tips out there, I'd greatly appreciate it! PLEASE LIKE AND SHARE IF YOU ENJOYED!
