just casually sobbing to 'crying in h mart' at work... definitely a good book to be reading on the clock jfc

i'm on the cutting edge of the scene what do you mean i'm old

shut up

what are you supposed to do when your long-loved songs from your teens/twenties now just have music videos that feel incredibly old and aged...

I think it is important for freedom of assembly to apply to the places where people assemble.

I (short heartburn pause) am young.

do some people not understand, If I have headphones on, I might not want to talk???????

i should try some hard drugs this weekend before the fascism and whatnot

Tell me how, living in Spain and having TikTok downloaded from the Spanish app store STILL leads me to having a blocked TikTok account??? Like we're gonna be building this FYP with just hopes and dreams now 😭😭😭

There are so many things I would ban before TikTok, including SUVs and assault weapons…

Just a reminder of some of the context around the TikTok ban: In 2020, Trump tried to ban it via executive order a couple months after K-pop fans used it to organize fake signups to Trump’s Tulsa rally, which led him to publicly overestimate how large the crowd size would be.

the TikTok algorithm is so good that it even served up the perfect video to act as the background for its ban announcement

RIP TikTok. It should’ve been Twitter

RIP TikTok. The ultimate example of the olds not getting it.

It is especially ironic that we're freaking out about a foreign owned social network when we're letting untrustworthy figures straight through the door over here

Maybe reposting old TikToks on Bluesky is the new TikTok.

lmao no, TikTok users are not moving to Bluesky. They would literally rather learn Mandarin than learn how to read a feed of text posts. This is a millennial retirement home.

Man. If I answered that many interview questions with “I’m not familiar with that,” I would not get the job.

Mac from its always sunny as the US government: Why are you downloading an even more Chinese app after I banned the last one. Dennis' as Americans: BECAUSE WE HATE YOU.

I wake up in the morning. I sit at my computer. The internet screams at me that the world is on fire. I am overwhelmed by the deluge of bad news and faceplant in front of the computer.

I would like this comic I drew in 2017 to stop being relevant pleeeaaaaase

In honor of carrie underwood performing at that man's inauguration I am going to continue my tradition of never listening to carrie underwood's music.

They cant get my data if i am Fully Dissolved in a bath tub full of sodium hydroxide

the reason gen z doesn’t care at all about “china having their data” is because gen z knows that the US government has collected their online activity data since they were born

Now that my body is falling apart I have to find someone who loves me for my personality, so I guess I’m dying alone now

Your phone isn’t even gonna last the next 4 years

An adorable raccoon.

One of the reasons it’s absurd for the government to play so fast and loose with TikTok is that they’ve allowed several US social media companies to monopolize in a way that leaves us at the mercy of like two insane CEO’s. We need their apps to participate in the marketplace

Black and white photo of a white man in white sailor's cap lying down on his stomach on a lawn, propped up on his elbows and looking down at three tabby and white kittens sheltered in his arms. A fourth kitten that is a black or grey tuxedo stands on his left shoulder.

“A sailor attached to utility squadron VJ-4 plays with kittens that were discovered in an equipment room at U.S. Naval Air Station Squantum in Massachusetts, 1942.” Original source is the National Archives but I found it in the book Cats in the Navy. www.usni.org/press/books/...

It’s 5:30am on Monday and I already have next weekend all planned out: lots and lots of solitary crying!
