It’s essentially like playing the lottery. If you’re sharing/posting something you and enjoy and it’s not raking in the fans at record rates it doesn’t make it less cool or interesting I swear.

the repost button is saving tiktok and soundcloud because everything that is recommended to me on my fyp by the algorithm is not grasping my attention like it once did, no one knows me best like random strangers online so do your due diligence and share/repost/retweet

I'm often accused of being an "old soul", a categorization I vehemently dislike because it pretends as if my taste is because of nostalgia, as opposed to what is actually cool and compelling. (If something cool comes out now, I enjoy it, but we're in a down period when it comes to culture). But, something old about me, is that I do not care at all about TikTok ending, if does happen. If Elon takes it over from the Chinese, you might as well leave anyway, but I'm just worried at why this is a huge deal for people. It's just an app. Another one will be made. TikTok is not culture, it directly flattens culture into these ten second clips that take music, movies --- things that you need to process --- into something that is now consumed by everyone at a rapid pace, not allowing for the nuances, the style, the aesthetics to sit with us. I have never watched something on TikTok and thought that this is something in that pushing American culture to deeper heights. I am sorry. Now I am sure they're good stuff on the app, but it's not really a necessity. Whenever I hear the words "it's blowing up on TikTok", my mind immediately growls. I understood why X becoming overrun with Elon bots and right wingers is a big deal; X actually created things, made careers, made American life, and American events available to be seen by everyone. However, TikTok is a corrupt fantasy, chopping at the wires that make physical connection important. Read a book! Go to the movies! Go to the restaurant of a cuisine that is unheralded, go to a baseball game. Who cares about TikTok?

If you’re “not on it cuz you don’t want another addiction”: A) learn some restraint out of self-respect (tough love) B) LIVE A LITTLE! Shit is not only useful, but hilaaaarious https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8novhQM/

I don't know where you live, but in Ohio it's 9º my young man is a 7yo pug named Bruce and he gets very few pleasures in life beyond his association with me. I plugged in an old heating pad (i've personally upgraded to heated blanket) and put it on his bed-- he's in a state of euphoria. (fyi: goes without saying, don't make it too hot and don't burn your house down. cheers!)

"Important" is subjective. I just got a planner that only gives me 3 (three!!!!) lines of to-do list- it's actually changed my life. A slow burn of getting things done instead of the 36 line-item list that only makes me feel depresso at the end of the day it over. Three things only.
