AMAs stopped being interesting a while ago. It was more like a quick press release session with celebrities trying to promote their latest stuff.

I kinda miss the IAmA part of it. People like us in usual or unusual circumstances sharing their daily lives. Researchers in remote islands, members of ethnicities or cultures that rarely get media attention, cool or unconventional jobs and how they got there. People and their stories.

Agreed, all it is now is a marketing stunt. Usually with responses built by some lawyer or publicist. But anyway, 1 horse sized duck or 100 duck sized horses?

It’s definitely 1 horse sized duck. I mean 100 duck sized horses would swarm you in seconds! I don’t get why everyone thinks they can just stomp 100 of anything!! They would circle you and it would be over!

Yep, that’s why it was interesting. Celebs are mostly boring and already have access to platforms if they want to talk to people.

I want to hear from people who I’d normally never get to listen to and who want to share details of their interests.

Lucky for me, I, Margot Robbie, can say things on Lemonworld that I would never say in public. So that’s a plus.

Podcasts, too. Like, Jeremy Irons is such a great actor, but it’s boring hearing him talk about his castle and riding horses. Hearing 2 comedians talk is fun, though.
