Hello and welcome back to another screen recorded video essay thing.

I don't really know what I'm calling these yet.

There was so much love on the one that I did in July

and it was so beautiful to see and so I'm very excited to be doing another one right now.

I apologize for taking me so long.

I had a very busy August and September but I'm really excited to be back.

So if there's anything you are interested in seeing a video on

or you want to see more of please let me know.

Today's topic is the idea of the cool girl and I've just been ruminating on this for the past few months.

I think I've been noticing and I don't know

if it's me as I get older or just

that this influx of content has been insane but especially on like TikTok

and Instagram and YouTube content geared towards younger people attempting to help them achieve some level of like coolness

or self -identity in the midst of all

that I think I see a lot of consumption

and putting these idols of people that we see in culture

that we deem as cool on a pedestal

and there's kind of this constant conversation of like who's on

that pedestal who are we taking off

and with the influx of content it feels like

that cycle is just moving like faster and faster

and maybe it's always been that way and I just didn't notice

because I was in the middle of it

but I think at the center of it all is also this feeling

when you stop trying to be something you become it a lot easier

but I think that is a lot easier said than done.

You can't just stop trying if you're not examining the areas of your life in

which you are kind of giving into something that is not, that you might be unconscious of.

So let's get into it.

And today I'm going to be using my trusty Google Doc, which I always use.

I just love the Times New Roman nature of it.

But I have been using a new platform called Sublime.

Sublime is actually the sponsor of today's video.

I have been using Sublime as my digital garden.

Images, concepts, ideas, things from all over the internet.

I'm able to organize them into collections and so I have a variety

and they all are different ideas of things I might want to use for a YouTube video, for a film, for a play.

Like not only is Sublime a home for all these things, it also has incredible search functions.

To give you an example, there's a book that I read in college that I really wanted to reference called We Were Feminists Once.

I read this book years ago and I knew that there were good quotes in it.

I could spend a bunch of time online trying to find the quote

but basically I looked it up on Sublime

and I was given the exact quotes I needed

and such a variety and then it also brought me

and reminded me of Gia Tolentino's Trick Mirror that I wanted to incorporate into this.

It's just very focused and some of these are from smaller writers on Substack

or blogs elsewhere that I would have never stumbled upon.

So it's really like a find similar button slash like a stumble upon for this era.

The space is very playful and fun and just excites

that early internet feel while at the same time really challenging you to minimize the amount of content you're focusing on.

I have truly loved incorporating Sublime into my process.

Okay part one.

Who is cool girl?

We can't really address that without watching what is the most iconic.

Cool girl.

Men always use that, don't they?

As their defining compliment.

She's a cool girl.

Cool girl is hot.

Cool girl is game.

Cool girl is fun.

Cool girl never gets angry at her man.

She only smiles.

When I met

Nick Dunn, I knew he wanted cool girl.

And for him, I'll admit, I was willing to try.

I drank canned beer watching Adam Sandler movies.

I ate cold pizza and remain to size two.

What that monologue does really touch on, which we'll get into, is that cool girl is in many ways without definition.

And also as a disclaimer in that same vein is I don't think that this only applies to women.

I think it's really anyone that you individually put on a pedestal.

Female celebrities and the ways we talk about them are great examples because they just uncover a lot of bias.

What we desire when we see

or we talk about someone who we think is cool girl is we see a sense of identity

and a self -image that is very clear and is clear through multiple channels.

We find that the person's personality matches their art, matches their face, matches their body, matches their apartment.

Everything is this cohesive brand in a way.

We want that, like we intuitively want that.

We want to feel like we can define ourselves.

At its core, she's really cohesive and packaged.

I think that's why everybody's obsessed with those color videos like which am I in autumn?

It's this thing everything worked together perfectly that maybe my life would finally make sense.

The tricky thing about this is that when you are living a life

that aligns with your values and

when different areas of your life are kind of fitting together I think it does indicate

that you do have a strong sense of identity

and a sense of self and that things in your life are working

and that's why we desire everything to kind of look

that way from the outside or why we kind of sense

when someone has things together and they have this intangible quality of coolness in a way

but at the same time I think that that is being used to then sell us shit.

I worry that by not identifying these red flags

and what you're being sold at all times you're actually losing more and more sense of self,

giving yourself over to an algorithm or to a sort of blankness that isn't what you're after.

It's okay to be after a sense of self and an identity.

I think that is human and natural.

However, you need to be really careful and challenge yourself in what that looks like.

100

And a lot of this is the idea that it's like, oh, it's an outside -in approach.

101

Like if I have the perfect house, if I have the perfect outfit, I will then feel like myself and I will know who I am.

102

And I do think that those things can help.

103

Like they can assist and nudge you along a journey.

104

But a deep sense of self

105

and identity is like really only achieved through digging into the parts of you that don't make sense.

106

I really liked this TikTok.

107

I am just so over cool girl rhetoric and I'm not saying it from a place of being above it.

108

I'm literally saying it from a place of being totally inside of it i am

109

so over selling the cool girl i'm so over being the cool girl i'm

110

so over like this is what you need to either think have live

111

now i feel like capitalism isn't even just selling products it's like i'm trying to sell you something

112

so you follow me

113

and thus i can like generate income let's get into part two of this video

114

which will be how to spot cool girl slash like cool girl red flags.

115

A lot of what inspired me to talk about this was

116

that I feel like people have a lot of blind spots

117

when it comes to what they are being sold and not only

118

that but also just the ways in which we talk about women and their bodies and who they are.

119

Particularly in America right now politically things are pretty crazy.

120

I'm already seeing things that are usually more inclusive become more and more exclusive or maybe just neutral or bland.

121

This idea of coolness is so deeply deceptive

122

and I think that's why we're obsessed with like pre

123

and post plastic surgery images or videos

124

and we want to be able to sort of spot the deception

125

but we want to spot the deception because we want to believe that at some point someone was being truthful.

126

If something's being pushed on you it's most likely deception oh another thing here is

127

that well some of the things about her stay the same she's always changing like just a little bit too

128

so just like you can't spot it

129

or she like changes in a cool enough way

130

that you're like oh well maybe that's okay um number one

131

and i think what's most obvious is

132

that cool girl is usually famous these aren't always true

133

but he's usually famous and we use female celebrities as like our framework

134

and our context of how we are talking and thinking about women

135

and we don't really speak about male straight celebrities the same way.

136

I think this Gia Tolentino quote is awesome.

137

Analyzing sexism through female celebrities is catnip pedagogical method.

138

It takes a beloved cultural pastime calculating the exact worth of a woman and lends it progressive political import.

139

I also wanted to start with this one because I think

140

that female paparazzi photos have probably been the longest iteration of this.

141

I always think of that article

142

when Gwyneth Paltrow talks about how she used to go to a bar and like she could just be at the bar.

143

People knew she was famous but no one was ever going to take a photo of her.

144

The paparazzi weren't everywhere and there weren't cell phones.

145

So hence I actually think

146

that like as much as you could get into it still existed

147

then I kind think like it's with the cell phone

148

or the paparazzi pics where like the coolness kind of dies

149

because it's inherently becomes a performance we are obsessed with these performances

150

and we want to use them as an example of how we should match our life

151

and i think i have like worked in and around fashion

152

and have seen a lot of the like behind the scenes of sometimes what looks like a more effortless outfit

153

or if you follow celebrities stylists danielle goldberg who is an amazing stylist

154

and does incredible work like this is not to diss the work at all

155

but she will post you know zoe kravitz leaving a hotel in downtown new york let's look up this image

156

so like this one is like a recent one

157

that people have been adding to pinterest boards right as much as yeah

158

this could have been like thrown together let's take into account

159

that she is leaving a hotel she knows she's going to be photographed her stylist posted this image

160

which means that they worked on this outfit.

161

This outfit that is quite simply a vintage tee, a pair of I mean, they're probably designer, but like

162

Adidas looking shorts and heels, like it's not that innovative.

163

And I don't think it needs to be.

164

I think that's actually what Danielle Goldberg is really, really good at.

165

So she should keep doing that.

166

But you are comparing yourself to this image and being like, oh, I'm gonna recreate Zoe's outfit.

167

You're not gonna recreate Zoe's outfit.

168

Like that is like millions of dollars you are looking at right now.

169

She wants you to want to recreate it.

170

Like that is the trick.

171

And the more relatable she seems well being elusive the more cool she seems

172

because she's almost like you but she's not probably talk about this later

173

but this is kind of just like the the quiet luxury movement and then

174

when i think i talk about things getting a little bit more i've always been kind of a minimalist dresser

175

but things getting more conservative

176

or plain in day to day

177

i do think is a reflection of our politics as a whole right

178

now i think the best thing to do to kind of

179

if you want to be consuming content

180

that maybe creates a more full sense of self and identity it's kind of doing the opposite of any of these.

181

So I would say like instead of pulling images of famous women that you want to base your outfits off of,

182

specifically pull images of not famous women.

183

An artist you saw walking around one day that you like kind of know but she's not famous.

184

Do you know what I mean?

185

Or maybe your favorite writer at a niche publication.

186

What did she wear to her brother's wedding?

187

How can you get more specific about what you're looking for?

188

Okay the next one is kind of fun.

189

Cool girl is a feminist so pulling it up

190

because it's easier terms of feminism we have like first wave

191

which is like the women's right to vote second wave is legal

192

and social equality reproductive rights and challenge gender roles the idea

193

that women couldn't open a like bank account

194

or have a credit card without a husband third wave 1990s to 2010s diversity intersectionality workplace harassment

195

and gender identity um

196

and then ongoing fourth wave this is kind of it's kind of tricky like i feel like

197

when i was learning about this we didn't really know if we were in the third wave or the fourth wave yet.

198

However, along with third wave and fourth wave, there was kind of the birth of choice feminism.

199

In the past, feminism

200

or just political movements in general are about individuals sacrificing themselves for a collective and for a collective goal.

201

In our current day and age,

202

there's a lot of feminism that every woman's choice is valid and every woman is valid to make any choice she wants,

203

even if that choice hurts other women.

204

It has been very much reflected in the packaging and consumption of feminism.

205

This was the book that I was talking about earlier when I was talking about Sublime,

206

but that Andy Zeisler, we were feminists once from Riot Grrl to Cover Grrl, the buying and selling of a political movement.

207

The problem is, the problem has always been that feminism is not fun.

208

It's not supposed to be fun.

209

It's complex and hard and it pisses people off.

210

It's serious because it is about people demanding that their humanity be recognized as valuable.

211

Just because a celebrity has expressed their political affiliations real politics comes from taking action.

212

There are many things that they are not experts on

213

and I don't want them to to pretend to be experts on

214

but I think that to question the political motives

215

and affiliations of the people that you are engaging with because

216

when you give them your attention you are giving them your money.

217

I don't think that we need to be demanding political opinions from everybody

218

but I do think that saying that someone is aligned with you just

219

because they said one thing one time doesn't mean anything.

220

Like, what are your political beliefs?

221

What are your values?

222

Like, figure those out.

223

Don't expect a celebrity to lead you to those deep decisions.

224

Something that I do see a lot of times with Cool Girl, she doesn't create problems.

225

She doesn't argue.

226

She's kind of this blank canvas that anybody can use and she can become anything to anybody.

227

But if someone does have like deep rooted values, that's not possible.

228

Next one cool girl is fashionable i talked about a lot of ways in

229

which we're like trying to make our outside match our insides whether it's beauty getting work done whatever

230

i do think what i see the most of

231

and what is the most overwhelming and i literally separated this out just

232

because of it is that people really think their clothing means

233

so much about who they are why are zoe kravitz kendall jenner

234

and lily rose depp seen as style influences when their styles are kind of basic and low effort.

235

They all blur the lines between being fashionable and fashion indifferent.

236

They use what are known as sartorial shrugs, in which the display of rehearsed carelessness makes no effort become a status claim.

237

I'm not saying that Zoe Kravis, Kendall Jenner, and Lily Rose Depp have fashion influence because they don't try, but their status, financial and cultural,

238

in pop culture, makes the decisions of what they wear,

239

or more importantly, what they don't wear to be a curated response to the type of style

240

that is expected of people with their fashion access.

241

Values of comfort and practicality are seen as drivers in the rise of relaxed dress.

242

Casual has become associated with ideals of democracy and freedom.

243

Bringing this back to the boring rich girls, understatement is about accentuating the biological capability that is practically impossible to copy.

244

I think it's such a good video.

245

I think that this statement is particularly in regards to quiet luxury, and

246

that is a sort of ease of life through financial freedom through physical safety through physical ability etc etc

247

i also have a couple other quotes the business of marketing

248

and selling to women literally depends on creating and then addressing female insecurity

249

and part of the revelatory potential of women's lib involves rejecting

250

that marketplace sweet talking premise about life -changing face creams

251

and shampoos not to mention the entire premise of women as decorative objects.

252

Go off, Andy.

253

Sorry, more Andy quotes because they're just good.

254

By re -inscribing feminism as something you dress in or consume rather than something you do accomplishes nothing,

255

not for you as an individual and not for how women as a whole are viewed, valued, and validated in this culture.

256

Cool Girl is fashionable.

257

A lot of these kind of like overlap with each other, but I do think that they're important to point out.

258

The next one is that cool girl is is white this is just

259

so apparent when you look at the types of people

260

that we idolize i would love to go more into this

261

but i think

262

that it would require i i would like to research more on this before

263

i like present a whole argument around it however i just think

264

that a great thing to point out we see whiteness as a sort of like neutrality um especially in culture

265

and in media we see it as that is its power is

266

that it's like not it our perception is

267

that it quote you know isn't asserting itself there's no like identity there's no history

268

or baggage associated with it um it's the premise of blankness

269

and the presumption of the universal and that isn't true like we have there's

270

so much dark history around whiteness on this planet however i think it's important to kind of take

271

that into account along with cool girl is white

272

this one is really rampant lately she is thin what all of these get to is

273

that this like blank canvas of a person.

274

But in the same way that whiteness is that sort of presumption of the universal, I think we do the same thing.

275

Also just want to flag that both like everything I'm saying is coming from a small white woman.

276

I just want to say that that's acknowledging that right now, but that's why it's important.

277

I speak about it.

278

The skinny is really in right now.

279

She's really, really in.

280

And it's a bit scary.

281

Yeah, I do think that when I think about politics

282

and I think about whiteness as being these sort of blank canvases

283

it makes me think very differently about thinness it's like this standard to achieve

284

but it's like if you achieve it you're actually just without it's a in some ways

285

and i'm not saying this to like body shame anybody i'm not saying

286

that if you are thin that that is the reality

287

but the desire for it and the and the the focus

288

and importance and placement on it is telling yourself that you need to be less, which is quite fascinating.

289

The images that are coming into your head throughout this video, I also think it's important to just examine how much of

290

that outfit or that apartment or that job looks good on her because she's thin.

291

I see this comment a lot, but I do always think that it is very smart.

292

This is the comment that somebody left.

293

Being skinny is one of the best accessories you can have.

294

I have one last one, and I think that it is new.

295

I think that this is the more fresh 2025 one and that is that

296

Cool Girl is natural.

297

In the same way that I had discussed before, we are obsessed with seeing someone before and after plastic surgery

298

because their truthful appearance and if they were actually beautiful before and so we can trust them, it is rampant that

299

Cool Girl appear natural.

300

And I also think it's crazy how much people are lying about their work done right now.

301

I'm not saying that they need to be honest about it

302

but I think

303

that it's crazy how much we are believing them

304

this video is i think a great example of this bella hadid thinks you're stupid

305

and she has not gotten the memo from the kardashians

306

that we're being honest about our plastic surgeries now watch this i think i've gotten the facelift

307

or gotten that cat eye thing

308

or whatever it's called i'm gonna teach you an easier way it's like 60 seconds

309

that cat eye thing or whatever it's called girl you know exactly what it's called

310

and that's okay you don't have to lie just

311

because you don't look like that naturally doesn't mean you don't look great she's undeniably gorgeous

312

but to maintain this lie for so long that it's natural except for the nose

313

is offensive it must be so weird

314

and confusing to have gotten work done at such a young age

315

and now see that it's like trendy to have your natural face Yes.

316

And I'm saying all this only to highlight, I, this isn't a video about whether or not

317

Bella Hadid had plastic surgery or not.

318

I think debating that is kind of the problem.

319

I think it would do you well to just assume that she did.

320

People really want things to be natural.

321

And so if you are seeing something also that is feeling very, you know, goopy and wellness -y and etc, etc, alarm bells should go off.

322

All of this stuff is not to like shame a celebrity or to shame an influencer or anything like that

323

Everybody is trying to sell you something and everybody is trying to sell themselves

324

because they are now a brand and a product

325

Be wary, especially if you are a young girl, please be wary

326

Those are all my red flags for now, but on a more positive note part three of this video is really who are you?

327

I found this using sublime.

328

I actually had this Anne Bogart quote come up I'm such a theater girl pulling up an Anne Bogart quote.

329

You cannot create results you can only create conditions in which something might happen.

330

I love this when I'm thinking about the act and like kind of the art of becoming yourself,

331

growing into yourself and learning who you are.

332

If you have a specific destination in mind, you're not really going to be successful.

333

Like you're never going to be the picture of Lily Rosedat on the street.

334

Your job as a human and in your own development, whatever age you are, is to create new conditions in which a new personhood might happen.

335

It's not to force a certain ideal upon yourself and

336

if you are truly open to becoming the best version of yourself then I think

337

that you'll be surprised by who that might be.

338

I added in this I've been loving Audrey Hobart's album and I really love the song Phoebe.

339

She sees herself as Phoebe and just kind of being weird and that her weirdness is what makes it all work.

340

Because why else would you want me?

341

I think I've got a fucked up face and that thought used to haunt me till I fell in its sweet embrace.

342

Now I don't sweat the acne.

343

It's a bitch, but it goes away.

344

And who cares if I'm pretty?

345

I feel like I'm Phoebe.

346

I feel like it totally works.

347

Yeah, I'd absolutely play the song, except I can't for copyright reasons.

348

And I'd very much suggest listening to it.

349

I think it captures that like childlike sense of play that even if you wanna change something about yourself,

350

you really won't until you accept the thing that you hate.

351

Suggestions, how to grow your sense of identity, especially when all of the stuff we've talked about is coming at you fairly basic stuff it's stuff

352

that you've probably heard a thousand times before

353

but I really think like read journal inner child work like

354

where do you feel not good enough identify your values but

355

when you get into it values can be kind of more abstract than maybe you think more playful

356

and fun and like I love doing things with my hands

357

and I like trees and the more individual things like

358

that are the more individual unique you become and you probably already are

359

but I think defining them for you will make you feel more confident especially

360

if you're a woman I think this specifically applies to outfit inspiration

361

but I think you can use this framework for anything

362

you will likely be shown more images like life is similar all algorithms are similar to the way

363

that like a Pinterest thing would work so

364

if I feed it an image of a white woman in kind of a mid outfit

365

I will get more of that and I think think about your life like

366

that and what you're placing attention

367

and value on as well as what the algorithms are giving you how can you diversify those sources

368

and the types of people that those sources are coming from the types of bodies

369

that those things are coming from you will grow exponentially faster

370

if you are receiving information from people that are different from you

371

and ultimately I think it's really okay to allow yourself to sit in the messiness

372

and like muck of yourself and your contradictions

373

and i think it's okay to i don't want you to like overdo it

374

but to romanticize that a little bit

375

if it allows you a bit more freedom to let go and to not look for quick fixes or dopamine hits,

376

the longer you sit with it, the more likely you are to form something out of it.

377

And I don't think that that's gonna be as tangible as you think it's gonna be.

378

I like this video.

379

Some of you are so hot,

380

like truly, but the only thing that's in your brain is gua sha,

381

lymphatic drainage, macro, matcha.

382

Like, yes, you are beautiful,

383

but the pursuit of that beauty has become so all -consuming that you are an empty husk who is,

384

I'd imagine, very difficult to love.

385

My one of my final suggestions as well is to I don't even think

386

you need to we need to watch this video

387

I just think the the title of it young people are

388

obsessed with gaining culture identity for things from things meant for consumption

389

You do not need to be like the things you are consuming

390

or the people you are consuming and do so with joy

391

But when you are looking for things to base yourself personhood on those things

392

Might need to be books like like they just might need to have a bit more heft okay

393

I had a lot of fun doing this one

394

Произношение, на которое стоит обратить внимание

Говорящий использует 105 сокращённых и редуцированных форм, например I'm, don't, you're. Произносите их коротко, так, как слышите.

Звуки «th»: thin /ˈθɪn/, algorithm /ˈælɡəɹɪðm̩/, clothing /ˈkloʊðɪŋ/, theater /ˈθi(ə)tɚ/, truthful /ˈtɹuːθ.f(ə)l/
Звуки «sh» и «zh»: consumption /kənˈsʌmp.ʃən/, suggestion /səˈd͡ʒɛst.ʃən/, deception /dɪˈsɛpʃən/, fashionable /ˈfæʃənəbl̩/, luxury /ˈlʌk.ʃə.ɹi/

/h/ — лёгкий выдох, а не русское «х»: hence /ˈhɛns/, humanity /hjuˈmænɪti/, highlight /ˈhaɪˌlaɪt/, harassment /həˈɹæsmənt/, heel /hil/
Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: valid /ˈvælɪd/, collective /kəˈlɛktɪv/, offensive /ˈɔˌfɛnsɪv/, package /ˈpæk.ɪd͡ʒ/, remind /ɹəˈmaɪnd/

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
