The fact that this girl, popularly called as the ‘’lo-fi girl’’, could dominated the internet is kinda impressive, but due to the logical idea that humans are like ‘’anxiety monkeys’’, it’s really not a big deal, we always look for something that can keep our minds out of the material world, and with this simple concept, that’s actually possible.
