With the signing of that big spending bill, TikTok is officially banned from government devices.

States have been on this bandwagon already and universities are now joining the ban.

TikToker legit thinks she's just better and deserves special treatment.

Ok, this one is fucking stupid, YouTube retroactively punishes creators for cursing in videos.

This is just garbage and a company blatantly stealing from their creators. Where's Congress to pass laws to protect the creators? Oh yeah, most of Congress haven't even heard of YouTube and are too busy insider trading to care.

You want a billion dollar idea? Launch a competitor to YouTube where content creators keep most of their profits. Hint: Don't go public. Keep the company private so you never have to answer to Wall St and play the game.

Sounds like a person begging to have drinks thrown on her.

Old: I'm going to bust my ass as a restaurant server so I can make good tips.

New: I'm going to whine online incessantly about how cheap people are, and chastise them, so I can make good tips.

DoorDash drivers have thoroughly convinced me to never use a 3rd party food delivery service again, after the many TikToks about drivers fucking with the food of people tipping in cash.

I never use food delivery services.

Overpay for already overpriced meals AND if you don't tip extraordinarily well they fuck with your food, which arrives cold anyway?! Where so I sign up!?

Food delivery services have a place in our society, but not to the level they're being used right now.

Also, every restaurant/service where you have to put the tip in prior to receiving the product/service should be punished. Customer service, food quality, etc. are worse than ever before, but tip percentage expectations are higher than ever before and they want it up front?

We use them moderately often. Mostly because you can often find 15% off gift cards for most of them. Amazon/Credit Cards give "free" membership to some of them that remove most of the fees. At that point, it's like ordering delivery from a normal restaurant or a little better.

According to TikTok, unless you add at least 20% to the bill up front, they're going to fuck with your food.

I kind of feel like he was, then she was, then he was, then she was, then he was.

But over all, I think he wins when he asks her if she's Jesus.

Her delusional sense of importance would have gotten her committed in the 1800s.

Asshole pulls "prank" at college bball game.

My Twitter feed has been showing me lots of TikTokers and YouTubers getting their asses kicked or in major trouble lately for their ignorant pranks and stunts and I'm here for it.

So is Chuck Darwin.
