  I’ve had personal experience dealing with them and they’re by far the worst and most narcissistic individual I’ve had the displeasure of interacting with.

  Actual CSAM on pawoo wasn’t even a problem. It was just spam from feds or scammers.

  I’ve literally had these “hacks” before. They get into one of your friend’s accounts and message you asking to alpha test a game they made. It’s so blatantly fake though it’s embarrassing anyone can get caught by it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TikTok working with Kenyan government to ban LGBTQ+ content in the country⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I never said that but if you’re looking for shorter form original content entertainment in video form I’d go to tiktok before YouTube or something.

  Well if you’re genuinely interested here’s an account I enjoy a lot: www.tiktok.com/@redwoodsrising

  I’m not sure of his exact title but he works for Redwoods Rising and talks about lots of redwood tree facts I didn’t know I needed. He also educates about the local native people and their impact/contributions on the forest. Most of his videos are like 2-5 minutes. May sound short but I honestly get exhausted watching full length documentaries that often go for some kind of dramatic approach. I just wanna learn about cool stuff, I’m not usually in it for anything else.

  Theresa also lots of people who work with/educate about different animals, actually funny comedy skits, and lots of niche shitposts for basically whatever you’re into.

  You gotta give it a little bit of time for the algorithm to curate to you but once it does it’s actually really high quality content imo. At the very least it’s nice seeing actual original content from people who have interesting passions/jobs versus people just linking articles/“TIL” style posts.

  Tiktok supports 10 minute videos. I see tons of very entertaining/educational videos.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Unity temporarily closes offices amid death threats following contentious pricing changes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s because of loose definitions of “death threats” and the fact that when you piss off millions of people a couple of them are bound to tweet “i hope u die” at a ceo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A disturbing number of TikTok videos about autism include claims that are “patently false,” study finds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think you’ve ever used tiktok if that’s what you think it is. all the dumb shit gets sorted out pretty quick because of the algorithm. I only see videos about niche topics im interested in, comedy sketches, and cat videos.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A disturbing number of TikTok videos about autism include claims that are “patently false,” study finds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  tiktok allows videos up to 10 minutes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are Internet boards and Forums dead⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  you can search specific channels on discord. if you’re seeing memes and r34 while searching for something in a hub server for a game or something then you’re not searching correctly. or the thing you’re trying to find info on is so niche and poorly organized they have 1 channel.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It shouldn't be called ADHD; it should be called restless brain syndrome.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have no hobbies I enjoy longer than about a month except gaming, and even then I still get like a month mileage out of each game. I can’t hold a job because every time I start a new one it’s like a ticking timebomb in my brain until I can’t handle it anymore. Even if the job is easy and the people are nice. Something about the repetitive schedule and saying/hearing/doing the same thing every day brings me to a near panic attack level of restlessness and anxiety.
