Go on TikTok to bitch about your husband and FIL who are solo building you a fucking house...get dumped as a result.

Posting here because what did TikTok people do? Encouraged her and told her how right she was, you know, until she later posted that her and her husband were getting divorced.

TikTok is a fucking plague on humanity.

TikTok mission is like, "Here everybody, have some rope. We're gonna sell ads while you hang yourselves. Be entertaining."

And so, so many of them are anti-capitalism idiots who have no idea how TikTok's business model works.

It's staggering how many people feel like their uneducated and uninformed opinions need to be broadcast to the world. Even more staggering how many people listen to them and believe it.

And I realize we're here on forums sharing our opinions, but we're doing so in a private place among our peers. We're not posting these thoughts on an app to be broadcast to the world.

Article about Bigorexia.

The title says it's about that, but if you read it, it's actually about the negative effects of social media.

The webpage one is kinda bullshit. On the average webpage, only about 28% of the words aren't ads.

I'm more amazed human beings have a lower attention span than goldfish now.

As it turns out, Quibi wasn't successful because its shows were too long...

I'll have more on this over the next few days (have some videos to watch), but if you have loved ones on TikTok, get them off of it. New studies being done proving that it is super harmful to their mental health and ability to think critically.

If only someone could have predicted decades ago that being immersed in the thoughts of stupid people would damage ones own mental processes.

Nobody gives a shit. There's money to be made and videos to watch.

Warning: This is a video story.

Parents of a teenage suicide victim are suing social media claiming they're responsible.

Ultimately, I think he did the deed. However, based on learning how TikTok works, I think their lawsuit could have some merit if they claim these platforms were a factor, but not "the" cause.

The logical follow-through is "You may be liable if you allow children to talk to each other." Interesting.

BeReal climbing the charts.

This will be an interesting one to watch. Not for investment purposes, although maybe, but because it doesn't allow altered or edited photos. So you know celebrities aren't going to be flocking to it or all of the people who like to pretend they live better lives. Let's see how real people want to be...

In case you missed it, here's a senior engineer at Twitter admitting they only censor right leaning news. His description of Twitter's culture is exactly what you think.
A week long break from social media can improve your health.
