the upcoming tiktok ban/forced US buyout is obviously bad for a myriad of reasons but it is undeniably very funny that the motive behind targeting tiktok specifically was an attempt to get The American Youth to be less sympathetic towards China and it turns out that the segment of The American Youth online enough to have been influenced by that kind of stuff just jumped ship to RedNote, where they've reportedly been realizing that Chinese people use the internet too and are really funny. i don't want to make any grandiose sweeping statements about how this is counteracting years of sinophobic US govt propaganda but this is the most pro-China i've seen the reddit-and-tiktok Overton window in, like, ever. so the "stop The American Youth from sympathizing with China" initiative has backfired before even passing and had the exact opposite intended effect. and there's still time for Musk to bumble in and make a ridiculous offer for a buyout and run tiktok into the ground after renaming it "Y"
the worst is when they gaslight u and are like yeah no evil ghosts in your drink we promise and then an hour later you are vomiting black sludge and ur head is swiveling 180 degrees
(no but fr had this happen back when i could not have caffeine for adderall reasons and had the worst panic attack of my life)
Asking for a decaf at a coffee shop when you're extremely caffeine sensitive sucks so bad cause they don't do it like, half the time. They just give you full caff. It's like if you go to a place where they sell water and then water with evil ghosts in it and you say please just regular water, hold the evil ghosts, and the underpaid worker who you tipped 30% on a single cup says "ok" and then puts evil ghosts in your beverage remorselessly

my unpopular opinion is that i hate tiktok because now people just publicly watch loud ass videos in public spaces with no regard for anyone else. 100% it was not this bad with youtube, it’s such a different thing with tiktok. put on headphones. you are grown.

‘don’t be political’ ‘I don’t want to see that on my dash’ ‘keep your opinions to yourself’
NO. Absolutely not- over my dead fucking body, you hear me?!
Don’t you dare try to make yourself small, don’t you dare be passive and roll over while they run your country to the ground. I’m not even American and this makes my blood boil, watching all the horrible things happening over there. They have taken your rights. Do you understand me? It is propaganda, plain and simple. Staying quiet just to appease other people is exactly what they want. They want you to remain passive, they want you to hope that things will get better on their own.
here’s the simple truth- it won’t. not unless you do something about it. we all saw it with the UHC shooter, citizens being abused and refused for years, but the second someone leaps into actions, suddenly the gears start turning. I understand that politics isn’t for everyone, and it may very well mentally affect you. but I believe this isn’t the time for that.
YOUR PRESIDENT JUST PUT A BUNCH OF LGBTQ KIDS AT RISK. THE WORLDS RICHEST MAN DID THE NAZI SALUTE AT YOUR INAUGURATION. YOU ARE WATCHING THEM TAKE AWAY YOUR RIGHTS IN REAL TIME ON NATIONAL TELEVISION.
for fucks sake, that doesn’t bother you?
this is the time for action. Do not let them take away your voice. Be inconvenient. Be angry. Be a public menace. Be as fucking difficult to the government as you could possibly be.
it could actually save a life.
Fuck hostile architecture, I want unhostile architecture. I want benches to be designed to be as easy as possible to sleep on. I want little places for pigeons to nest to be purposefully put on buildings. I want people designing public spaces to think about what they'd be like to skateboard on. I want "Please loiter" signs. I want people to be kind. I want...
I’m starting to sound like a nutcase at work because upper management keeps trying to implement AI programs and AI assistants and Chat GPT and my middle-of-the-road, don’t-infodump, don’t-engage response has been “I don’t like AI”, “I prefer to remain in control of my own tasks”, “I’d rather make my own mistakes”, and “I don’t trust any machine smarter than a toaster”
