DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------
Clara Dao is an infamous social media figure who has recently become the subject of great controversy. Branding herself as the internet's only "flat chested" influencer, Clara's recent decisions have brought all of that into question. From her public relationship to her latest, drastic rebrand, Clara Dao is a brilliant example of what it means to be socialised and parented by the internet, and, ultimately, what it means to find joy.

β What are KIDS CLIPS?
Kids Clips are my shorter form videos centred on more topical, less research-intensive and more (personal) opinion-based commentary. If you dont have a lot of time or patience, these are the bitesized videos for you and your schedule.
β How often are KIDS CLIPS uploaded to YouTube?
Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evening I will be uploading a Kids Clip for you to engage with at your leisure. HOWEVER, if you would like early access I upload ALL THREE KIDS CLIPS to my Patreon [Kidology] every Friday evening. So, if you cant wait until the week, be sure to pick a tier and I will see you on my Patreon, brethren!
β Does this mean you wont be doing livestreams or making your typical video essays and commentary content?
NO! Please do not worry yourself! This is just an additional channel feature. I have read your concerns and comments about the length of my videos and livestreams. This is what I have determined and devised to be a realistic resolution for us all: I dont disappear for weeks researching and editing a video, and you dont have to resort to plowing through a 4hr livestream to figure out what I think about something and have a conversation with other Kidologists. So, I sincerely hope this works out for us all. I will still be livestreaming and uploading my typical videos. There is absolutely no need to worry. Thank you as always for your patience and support.
