Boy what a day: a TIKTOK melodrama

 BREAKING NEWS: INTERNET COMMUNITY LOSES IT S*!t when Social Media platform is banned (but is likely just a farce and will be reinstated soon)

Titles says it all and I'm here for the commentary. HAHAHAHAHAHA

Many Americans awoke on Sunday January 19, 2025 to TIKTOK being inaccessible and were shocked despite all the coverage and notice on the issue prior to the ban.... Many people are calling this block on a PRIVATE BUSINESS platform a breach of free speech and their first amendment rights despite actually understanding how the first amendment works (and I'm again I'm here with the popcorn). Multiple sources report (not really) that people are appalled and shocked by this decision despite the myriad of other platforms with equal amounts of brain rot and doom scrolling.

Oh satire........ You got me, as the kids these days say, 'Laughing out Loud'

I love satire. I just love comedy in general, you can tell the truth while being funny or at the very least while not being so grizzly about it. I also love how you can use satire to point out the outrageous-ness of things. So with that spirit in mind I have for you a couple of my favorite articles that have circulated their way to me in the last week or two

#1. Gay Teen Worried He Might Be Christian

LOUISVILLE, KY—At first glance, high school senior Lucas Faber, 18, seems like any ordinary gay teen. He's a member of his school's swing choir, enjoys shopping at the mall, and has sex with other males his age. But lately, a growing worry has begun to plague this young gay man. A gnawing feeling that, deep down, he may be a fundamentalist, right-wing Christian. -Link to Article here

hahahahahahahahahahahaha. This article had me rolling, figuratively of course. It's funny to me because people don't think that their worldview isnt as ridiculous from the outside looking in. Oh it is great, like how people think that somebody who is gay is less than a person. Asinine I tell ya.
But for more articles following the theme of satire, please continue reading.
