So many Dad Guys showing me how to take apart various portions of my 20+ year old car so I could keep limping it along a few more months.

I finally couldn't afford to keep repairing it anymore, but I am indebted to this dads.

Last time I looked, "we don't censor creators" was the company line on that and it makes me so mad. Curating my personal experience isn't the same as censorship.

So true. I basically only go there to watch creators I already know or videos on how to fix something in my house.

It's otherwise nigh unbearable.

My brother says it I'd SO for hard to avoid man-o-sphere bullshit. He doesn't engage with that crap, but the algo has clocked him as male, ergo........

That's one thing Tiktok has over YT, you can just block people/accounts. I don't want to "hide comments" or "not recommend this channel," I want to banish these people from my life.

I don't even like energy drinks and I would buy a set just to have in my house as a display item.

That takes me back (and same).

The first time I did this, I thought to myself, "Ah, I am finally a digital artist now."

I think that's the part I remembered best 😆 At the lead-up, I was watching my kid like:
a little girl in a blue shirt is laughing in front of a shelf of tiaras .

Watched this with my kid for the first time over the summer and I'm pretty sure that's the only part of the movie she remembers 😅

I learned to read before this really took hold and thankfully, my kid's learning experience was similar to mine (phonics, encouraged to sound out new words, etc).

I'm hoping against hope that this "method" is on its way out, but we've also been defunding edu for *decades.*

I'm hoping this BS "learning method" is on its way out. I came through school just before it started to take hold and my own kid's learning experience had been similar to mine with phonics and instruction to sound out words (which we reinforced at home).

God. I can't wait. My body is ready.

Right?

Like, I don't wear it because I'm lazy/don't want to, but it's an art form! If that's how someone wants to express themselves, go for it!

JUDAS, NO 😆

Missing Vine, desperate for weird, short-form comedy videos was the only reason I joined Tiktok in the first place. Now I can return home 😭

Haha I had no idea Phantom had the same sort of renown 😆
