You are showing your entire ass by calling TikTok “a dancing app” in the year 2025

Sending good vibes to everyone mourning the loss of TikTok. Everyone of a certain age has been through this on the internet, but very seldom as abruptly and absurdly as this.

Snowman made himself a warm little nest, no making the bed today. #Caturday

Not to be *that person* but TikTok legitimately helped me survive postpartum depression by showing me I wasn’t alone
After that I learned cool recipes and cleaning techniques and watched a lot of Taylor Swift and cat videos. Feeling this loss and hating this overreach of the government.

Marvel Snap is now banned in the U.S. seemingly as part of the TikTok ban

MAGA is now predictably trying to blame Democrats for TikTok shutting down.

1) It was a bill passed by Congress.

2) More Republicans than Democrats voted to ban the app.

They really banned TikTok before they banned sending weapons to Israel during a genocide.

People who are upset because SCOTUS shut down TikTok but didn’t pay attention when they gave Trump broad immunity from criminal prosecution…

Let’s be clear: the whole thing is a con. TikTok could’ve kept the app rolling on Sunday but by shutting down & mentioning Trump, he gets to be the savior. One of many examples of companies & billionaires bowing down.

It’s BS. But it’s also the reality. Let’s not give Trump anymore opportunities 👍🏾

Maybe reposting old TikToks on Bluesky is the new TikTok.

Trump hated TikTok (because China) until it helped him win an election (as even he acknowledges) and now he’s going to save it and take a victory lap. So he’ll have X, TikTok, Insta, and Facebook all working on his behalf. That’s a big difference between now and 2017.

the TikTok algorithm is so good that it even served up the perfect video to act as the background for its ban announcement

Now that TikTok has officially gone dark, I’m re-upping my post from a few days ago to remind folks that this praise for Trump is wrong.

Just a reminder of some of the context around the TikTok ban: In 2020, Trump tried to ban it via executive order a couple months after K-pop fans used it to organize fake signups to Trump’s Tulsa rally, which led him to publicly overestimate how large the crowd size would be.

RIP TikTok. It should’ve been Twitter

RIP TikTok. The ultimate example of the olds not getting it.

It is especially ironic that we're freaking out about a foreign owned social network when we're letting untrustworthy figures straight through the door over here

I’m sad.

There are so many things I would ban before TikTok, including SUVs and assault weapons…
