From one Australian woman to another, she should have used that energy and tried acting instead.

Everybody plays a character of the person they want to present to the world on social media, so there needs to be more awareness that even if you can see their faces and hear their voices, you still can't blindly trust people to be who they claimed to be online, and you should always exercise a healthy dose of skepticism on what you read or watched.

Trust me, after all, why would Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie ever lie to you?

You were still great in that thing. I think you were a doctor. I dunno.

I'm not a doctor, I just played a clown doctor on TV.

Don't go takin' medical advice from me on anythin' now.

I want to believe

It would be hilarious if it were her, but it's not lol

Every molecule in my brain screams about it's not. But there's still that tiny little comedian in my brain that goes, "what if there were a dinosaur in that lake?"

Are you calling me the Loch Ness Monster? Gasp.

Anyways, I would need about 3 dollars and 50 cents from you, please.

Here's your tree fiddy

Wait a minute, now I realise you're a 200 feet tall creature from the mesozoic era!

You can't even trust those are the actual people you see with deepfakes becoming more popular.

Because it is funny.

Messing with tech nerds IS really funny.

(I still 💖 you guys though)
