may i take solace in my complete and total refusal to use or recognize or commend tiktok for anything ever despite it’s overwhelming mainstream presence on all fronts. i enjoy being completely clueless when a bunch early 20-somethings ooze in from the aether with brand new discourse and necessitated slang terms for things that tiktok automatically censors
“why is the tiktok hands guy in fucking fortnite” i ask, to which many roll their eyes at me and say “duh idiot he has nearly 200 million followers” to which i respond “what”
i regularly forget that tiktok even *is* fundamentally unavoidably mainstream because i still dismiss it as caustic and destructive brain poison and i wish more people would do the same
