The Internet Is a Drama Farm, Stop Harvesting It

Brandon and Jesse kick this sesh off on a deceptively simple question that always turns into a whole thing, how do you actually show love, like real love, not Instagram love, not “I posted a quote so I’m healed” love. And it starts in the most Brandon way possible, food. Not “I heated something up,” food, but “I’m trying to give you an experience” food. The kind where mac and cheese is not allowed to be mid, and even the boxed stuff somehow ends up feeling like a flex because you refuse to let a meal be boring if you’re the one cooking.That rolls right into the part nobody talks about, love languages sound cute until you realize people are basically running different operating systems. Some people hug, some people avoid feelings like it’s a sport, and some people show love by handing you something useful and acting like that counts as emotional intimacy. There’s a whole little riff on how weird the holiday season is too, because no matter what you believe, December has that “aura,” like the world collectively cosplays being nicer for a minute. This year hits different though, court stuff in the background, kids in town, then kids gone, the emotional whiplash of closeness and absence back to back.Then you two take a hard left into the modern world being kind of… engineered. You talk about how life isn’t “scripted” like a conspiracy, but it is shaped, nudged, fed, and filtered. Algorithms decide what you see, what you fear, what you think “everyone” thinks, and suddenly we’re all yelling at each other like we’re defending our favorite sports team. The perfect dumb metaphor lands, “I’m Coke and you’re Pepsi,” and then immediately gets exposed for what it is, it’s sugar water with bubbles, why are we acting like this is a holy war. That’s the point, a lot of the division isn’t even about reality anymore, it’s about identity, dopamine, and what keeps people glued to their screens.From there it gets real in that way you guys do, not preachy, just honest. You talk about how hiding parts of yourself is basically self-rejection dressed up as “protecting the relationship.” The fear sounds like, “If you see this part of me, you won’t love me.” And the truth is brutal and freeing, you’re not even letting yourself be loved if you’re always editing who you are. There’s also a solid moment of perspective from stepping away from rigid religion years ago, and realizing you’ve seen more closeness and acceptance since, not less. More room for people to be whole, messy, complicated, and still worth loving.Save on Dr Dabber with Code: Cannabisschool10Save on Storz & Bickel with Code : CannabisschoolSave on Santa Cruz Shredder with Code: CSP10Save on Bomb Erigs with Code: CSPScore 100 on your test 😘 Save 25% with code cannabisschool25🔥 Only What We’d Use Ourselves — our trusted, handpicked tools and resources.
