She was never sorry. She was only sorry even her constituents were offended the last time.

You will never convince me to click your tiktok links

[Milkster]

Ok then don't?

[NynJa]

Apparently this needs an update, since its not just spam that wont click on his stupid tiktok links.

[Salodin]

Just here to confirm I still haven't downloaded TikTok

Also confirmed I click TikTok links as long as the context around it makes clear it isn't one of those workout ones that are highly overrated

i don’t mind clicking links tho

TikTok sucks since there's no volume or way to skip ahead in the video (in browser at least, I don't have it downloaded), but that link is hilarious, and sad. Mostly sad

[Milkster]

App gang can fast forward and rewind and control the volume. It's like looking at IG on a computer. A mess.

There are two types of people who use TikTok:
1-People who are mentally challenged
2-People who use tiktok to make millions of dollars off #1

Maybe if he posted context along with the links, that would help. But, I'm with you.

Wife has TikTok and I don't. I swear she spends like every evening just scrolling through it and then gets sad if I swap from some tv show she isn't watching to a video game or something I like to watch but she doesn't.

To be fair, some of the ones she shows me are pretty good.

The trick is to get them addicted to mass effect and have them spend over a hundred hours romancing Liara just to realize that her real beau is Garrus by the end of the series.

I guess they received money and have an embedded Confucius Institute? Sounds reasonable enough on the face of it.

Asked about the law's lack of exception for rape or incest earlier Tuesday, Abbott defended the six-week period wherein abortions are still permitted and vowed to work to "eliminate all rapists from the streets of Texas."

Ocasio-Cortez called the governor's comments a "disgusting" defense of a law centered on "controlling people who are not cisgender men."

"I'm sorry we have to break down Biology 101 on national television, but in case no one has informed him before in his life, six weeks pregnant means two weeks late for your period. And two weeks late on your period for any person -- any person with a menstrual cycle -- can happen if you're stressed, if your diet changes or for really no reason at all. So you don't have six weeks," she said.
Addressing the governor's goal to "eliminate rape," the New York congresswoman argued that "these aren't just predators that are walking around the streets at night."

"They are people's uncles, they are teachers, they are family friends, and when something like that happens, it takes a very long time, first of all, for any victim to come forward. And second of all, when a victim comes forward, they don't necessarily want to bring their case into the carceral system. They don't want to re-traumatize themselves by going to court. They don't necessarily all want to report a family friend to a police precinct, let alone in the immediate aftermath of the trauma of a sexual assault," she told Cooper.

How noble of him, the exception doesn't need to exist, because he'll just get rid of the things that could cause that exception in the first place!
