Being "Normal" is an Absurd Concept

I talk about some of the recent books I've read: The Bell Jar, Fahrenheit 451, The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat and The Age of Absurdity. I go all over the art of reading, my specific reading rules and preferences and why I think it's such a good hobby. Tune in! 

My boyfriend and I are always making our own theories about aliens and life beyond planet earth so we decided to finally make an episode about it. Tune in for conversations about alternative lifeforms, life on other planets and alien theories <3

Going into raw details here about my relationship with my body and my weight loss journey. It's an long journey but one I'm glad I took. 

This episode was so fun to do!! In it I ask Myra, my boyfriend's grandmother about her life and her experience moving to Amsterdam when she was my age. We also talk about how different life was back then and how she's changed and what exactly changed her. 

Life changed a lot when I moved from Abu Dhabi to Amsterdam. In this episode, I talk about what and how things changed in my life as well as how moving here helped me change as a person. 

Have you ever just wanted to tell your family off about their views on social and political problem and potentially get thrown out of the house? This episode goes into why I think the best way to progress as a civilization can only be done through conversation and not cutting corners with actions such as performative activism online. I mention two philosophers: Adorno and Gadamer, because they're essential for my argument about conversation. 

Episode 10! Here I talk about my views on fast fashion and how they have changed throughout the years. I explain the many things I found out about sustainable fashion and different ways to incorporate it in my life. Enjoy! 

In this episode of Life Dump, Myriam and I go through our experiences in finding ourselves throughout our lives. Self discovery can be a painful, long and even disgusting process yet it is important to make light of it in order to overcome difficulties with ourselves. We talk about where we think the self comes from, our toolbox and methods we use for our self discovery journeys and the nasty process that it is.

Here I talk about what it means to be normal and if there even is an actual way to define what normal behavior implies. Between natural instincts and following norms and rules, listen to me get confused about how absurd humans really are. 

In this episode of Life Dump, my boyfriend and I tackle online privacy and what it means to be on social media. Topics included: Social Media, online security, data collection, Edward Snowden and privacy.
