My daughter isn’t cool with TikTok right now. I asked her what she thought. She’s aware that they coordinated with Trump. She & her friends are talking about deleting.

“They took away one of my favorite things and brought it back, giving Trump credit. He’s a narcissist, not a hero! I hate it.”

So I now have two different Taylor Fritz's following me 🤔 how many are there? Does the real one know about this 😂

Just reactivated this account, seemed like a good time to do it

re-sharing Thijs Kuiken’s x-Twitter post:

A new low point reached, I have put the kettle on, put instant coffee in my mug and returned to my desk with the mug. Without putting water on the coffee.
