I’m a body positive influencer – social media is literally so fake, just see how I look as soon as I stop posing
A BODY positive influencer shared an illuminating video that spoke to many of her viewers.
She encouraged her followers to not believe what they see on social media.
Emily, @imnotbunny, shared an eye-opening video with over 1.4 million TikTok followers.
The influencer knows from personal experience that social media is not all that it seems to be.
“Reminder that social media is literally so fake,” she said, sharing a photo of herself posing in a bikini.
A second later, the photo turned into a video of the influencer breathing out, letting her stomach loose from its posed position.
Another photo of Emily in lingerie turned into a video of her relaxed body a second later.
In one video, she turned to the side to show off her belly rolls.
“Literally put that phone down and STOP COMPARING!” she said.
“Everything is curated,” she added with the hashtags #bodypositivity and #bodyneutrality.
People raved about her honesty and candidness: “Ur the first person to make me love my pooch lol,” said one commenter.
“The relaxed positions are amazing! I love the art and work put into the posing but I really enjoy the relaxed nature,” said another.
“You’re absolutely amazing, this is the best video and I appreciate you showing the real you,” said a third.

The influencer sported a white turtleneck, rolling it up to reveal her belly.
“This is just to remind you that bellies exist,” she said, shaking her stomach.
In another video, trolls attacked her body: “You will look better if you just lose weight,” one said.
Andy, however, didn’t entertain the thought for even a second.
“#idontcare,” she said, adding the hashtags #embraceyourself and #belliesarebeautiful.
“The only thing I care about is that I like my fat body. In fact, I’m fat bc I want to be fat!”
People took to the comments to show their support: “Don’t listen to that, you look great,” said one commenter.
“You are perfect,” said another.
“Don’t give them the day of time!” said a third.
“Your curves are your beauty! I would make sure everyone knew you were mine,” said one particularly enthusiastic admirer.
Positive Grid unveils ultra-portable Spark Go enhanced guitar amp
Positive Grid has a new ultra-portable version of its high-tech Spark guitar amplifier. Designed for musicians seeking a versatile and powerful practice amp, the 3.5-inch-tall Spark Go works with a companion app loaded with virtual amps, pedals and other effects — and it can even flesh out your sound with AI-powered drums and other backing instruments.
Like its predecessors, the Spark Go pairs with an iOS / Android app to go far beyond amplifying your strumming and picking; it enhances it digitally. It includes 50,000 tones (ranging from boutique to modern), 33 amps and 43 effects and pedals, giving you plenty of novel ways to shape your sound. The app can even “jam along with you” by listening to and learning from your playing, generating an appropriate backing track. And if you want to learn new tunes, the app can sync with Spotify or Apple Music to display AI-generated chords for the song you’re hearing.
Engadget’s 2021 review of the Spark Pearl (a larger model in the same line) found the app to have some rough edges — including a less-than-convincing AI drummer. However, the company has had plenty of time to smooth it out, so we’ll reserve judgment on the current iteration until we test it again. After all, you may have heard generative AI has made some impressive leaps since then.
The amp has a rugged construction and “extra hardshell grille” to (at least in theory) live up to its on-the-go branding; Positive Grid says it even fits on a pedal board. The company suggests laying it flat for omnidirectional sound or standing it on its edge for “in-your-face sound.” In addition, it uses computational audio that delivers “surprisingly big, full sound” from its tiny package. (And you can plug in headphones to practice in private.) The amp’s battery allegedly lasts up to eight hours and recharges with USB-C. Finally, it supports four presets for when you find a mix you want to keep handy.
Positive Grid is accepting early signups to be notified when Spark Go pre-orders go live. Whenever they open (the company hasn’t yet announced a date), the company will offer the amp for an aggressively priced $109 — although it will eventually increase to a suggested $149.

Elon Musk Claims Twitter Could Be ‘Capital Positive’ in Mere Months
Elon Musk doesn’t have a great track record of saying things that then come true. Or, put another way, he loves to make promises and then break them. Or, put yet another way: the man is full of it. For instance, he’s repeatedly said his biotech device company, Neuralink, is nearing human trial approval. Spoiler…
