Finally something worth selling

and that’s why they wanted to take away tiktok. you won’t find this information on the mainstream media.

just for the sake of clarity, luigi mangione HASN'T BEEN CONVICTED OF ANYTHING. He has only been arraigned. News stories saying that the jury gave him the death penalty are misleading-- all those headlines mean is that he COULD be tried by a federal court instead of state, and if he's tried in federal court then the death penalty COULD be an option, since the death penalty is not legal in NY.

Luigi pled not guilty to STATE COURT charges, which is where the arraignment happened, which means he cannot get the death penalty for THOSE charges, IF he is found guilty. In reality, nothing has happened yet, he has not been proven guilty on any of the bs charges. It's extremely not over, in fact it hasn't even STARTED yet.

But gee I wonder why so many news organizations worded their headlines to make it seem like he had already been charged and it was over. Weird, how a news agency would release misleading information, considering how someone might see those headlines and stop paying attention. Sure hope nobody is defeated from taking further action because they think Luigi Mangione was put to death.

As the Supreme Court is now hearing arguments on the TikTok ban, I feel like this is an excellent time to remind everyone that getting rid of TikTok is NOT a good thing

And the reason I bring it up specifically on here is bc I have seen far too many people claim that the ban is for the better, that they're so glad it's gone, that people spend way too much time on it (side note, that's social media in general, it's not just TikTok babes. You're spending 15 hours on Tumblr alone, I'll bet). Even if you don't use TikTok and you absolutely hate its guts, trust me when I say you'll want it to stay

Firstly, there's been very little evidence that TikTok's Chinese owner, Bytedance, has been data mining Americans on order of China. Majority of the evidence has not been released to the public and the stuff that has has been censored. Of course the risk that it could exists-- but you cannot simply assume it's doing this all the time, 24/7, when no current evidence has been presented

TikTok has been taking massive steps to insure that American data is protected, primarily with Project Texas. All American data is stored in the United States and controlled by Americans. Again, American data is with AMERICANS

It is also one of the very few apps that is not dominated by American companies. Does no one find it odd that the only foreign-owned application is being singled out, when companies like Meta and Google have arguably done worse damage? Is no one pointing that out?

Due to this, it allows for less mainstream news to flourish on the app. Palestinians have been able to raise their voices and call to attention what is happening in the region, and activists have pushed the crises of Congo and Sudan to the forefront. No other major social media app and news organization has done this, in fact, Meta censored pro-Palestinian content and immediately toggled on a feature for all users that limited political content

And TikTok is just the start. If it gets banned, do you really think everything else is safe? You think you're safe here on Tumblr? On Ao3? On Instagram? NO

At some point they are going to start going after other apps. They'll celebrate and pat themselves on the back that they "protected democracy" but really they limited free speech. They limited alternative voices. It is not an "if" but "when" they begin going after apps that do not conform to their every single standard

If TikTok goes down, they all do

I’m so glad to see we the people can collectively come together and say “fuck you” to the government.

Don't you fucking dare compare TikTok to Vine. ITS NOT THE SAME THING

Vine went away cuz it couldn't afford to stay active

TikTok went away because congress RIPPED it away from us. It let to many activist groups connect faster than ever before; it let too many voices of dissent be heard louder than ever before; and most importantly it was more popular than Facebook, Twitter( cuz fuck that X bullshit), and instagram.

I understand losing both of these platforms hurt, I was alive for vine's death to. But don't let yourself be fooled into a falce equivalence.

Vine died

TikTok was murdered.

The government banning an entire social network because they cannot control people using it and what you see and say on it, is really a great example of totalitarianism.

I HAVE WAITED ALL YEAR TO POST THIS

say it louder for the people in the back 👏👏👏

someone had to say it.

if they wanted you, they wouldn’t go hours or days without communicating

Normalize not forcing connections. If someone doesn't see the value in having you by their side, don't try to convince them.

i would probably have a better sleep schedule if i could put my phone down and stop having insanely long phone time before bed

Want to see a quokka eat a leaf?

I have been a sheep caretaker for like two days and already I'm like. Wow. I get it.

I get why these were some of the earliest mammals to ever be domesticated. They look up to humans with this sort of dumb but all at once innocent and pure and trusting expression. They're happy to see you. They follow you around. They like to be rubbed under their chins. Maybe its just some latent Scottish highland shepherd DNA I still have in me but I look at my sheep charges and suddenly I see why the love of God for humanity is so often described as a shepherd and his sheep. I'd fight a wolf for these guys. I'd go way the Hell out of my way for them. I'd carry their young for miles on my own back.

Me: watches a new movie/tv show for fun

Also me: suddenly notices the attractive male lead who is most certainly 35+ and I know immediately that he will infiltrate my thoughts for the next 365 days.
