It’s good that you’re honest with your feelings. The point being made is that almost everyone is being left out, having normal experiences. The good news is that one day you’ll probably get another normal experience of falling for someone and having a deep connection in addition to sex.

Who is telling you that casual sex is common? Where did they hear it? At its root, it’s mostly sold as a way to prey on male insecurities. Social media literally profits off you being insecure and engaging with a myth that everyone is hooking up but you.

Most people are not interested in casual sex/hookups. Put effort into being someone worth pursuing.

The moment I get recognized I’m out of here.

Obama is the only Nobel Peace Prize winner to drone strike another Nobel Peace Prize winner (Doctors Without Borders)

Thats a lot of mental gymnastics to justify a massive overhaul of a system which would open up a whole slate of security issues. I get it, I used to believe strongly in blockchain but so far it seems to be a solution looking desperately for a problem to solve. You cannot “tech” your way out of societal issue.

You don’t fight fascism by accepting that it’s already here and opening the door further.

If you read a modern bible translation from the perspective of christian mythology just as we treat Greek mythology a lot of the stories are actually fantastic reads

Algorithms To Live By, applying computer science and mathematic principles to real life. Helping make better decisions that are provably more efficient. Really interesting and anyone who has any interest in computing can get a lot from the book.

That’s it, pack it up. We’re done here

It’s compelling enough that the youtube comments are full of people being actively compelled 85 years later

For TV and Movies I use Trakt it works great and there are plenty of integrations with my media center.

PodcastGuru works well for me

Just in case the mod responsible is here in the room with us, just wanted to say thank you.

I generally try to avoid direct links or names to protect the app staying up. But if you look for a telegram related to tiktok and a cloud that should point you in the right direction.

I’m not surprised by the downvotes on the original comment, it’s a vestige of former redditors who have an attitude that all social media is garbage. I value my digital privacy quite highly and I know how to protect it. I’m confident that a Singaporean company, ByteDance, is much better for data protection than handing it all over to the Zuck.

Unpopular here, but yes, every day. I’ve been on it since 2019 and my wife and I will cuddle and watch tiktoks that we’ve sent each other throughout the day. We call it “TikTokTime” and really it’s just a debrief period after work where we have time to look at the funnies together and decompress.

I also value tiktok as a social media website independent from influence by the US government that is more privacy-respecting than Instagram or YouTube. I use a modified version of the app that I don’t get shown ads or tiktok shop videos, as well as natively increasing watch speed.

I am also autistic, as is my wife. She’s also chronically ill. It’s nice that we found online communities of creators who go through the same stuff we do. And when it comes to misinformation, I am very liberal with the block button. The tiktok algo is unmatched by other social media companies.
