Every platform we continue to lose the more we lose access to the friends we could have only made through the internet. Not that we can’t have local people but so many folks I connected through just being able to share my joy with them.
Fugazi, one of the best live bands there has ever been.
Fugazi - Bad Mouth (live, 1991)

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 People’s March is moving through the streets of Washington: “We won’t go back!”
A broad coalition of activists — among them climate, women’s rights, immigration, anti-war, LGBT, D.C. statehood, racial justice — are mobilizing in unison against Trump, three days before his inauguration. 🧵

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.

Begin each day by working on your dream.
This small commitment will transform your life.
It happened.
I just reached the end of the never ending scroll.
At least when AOL/MySpace died it was a gradual fade away, and they died because we’d moved on.
Next week is gonna be brutal as millions of Americans quit their dopamine of choice cold turkey. Buckle up.
I feel the same. Connecting with others sharing the same experiences and interests helped so much with feeling included and seen. I am going to miss the DIY, music and cooking videos but the ND and queer communities were huge for me.
Today was a mad dash trying to follow my favorite TikTok creators on other platforms.
No TikTok 🙁
I’m sad.

My partner struggles with this (we are unable to see each other regularly). I know I struggled with this when I lived alone. If you ever feel alone and need a friend to chat with feel free to connect :) I know it's not the same but community is huge!

I have an espresso machine and it terrifies me. However, I've been buying beans from local roastries and it's so much better for making it traditionally in a basic coffee machine.
Working through a draft for a contribution strategy that enables our designers and developers to contribute to our design system. 👀 Attached is a preview - it's still very much a ✨work in progress✨
Actually same!
