Cringe, you're too old for TikTok. Nobody calls it TT, just stop.


I don't call it that. I was typing and doing something called abbreviating. Twitter has sucked since Elon bought it and Meta has gone down the tubes. It's the only relevant platform at the moment. That may change, and I am sure I will move to the next thing. Clinging to IG (just an abbreviation--I don't call it that) is cringe.

Y'all, it's not that deep.

This is why Millennials and older should just not use SM they just don't get it.

Maybe I thought it was like FB where I heard they can’t look at who sees your profile or looks into your friends list

I did try to obsessively watch one of my DIL’s videos on instagram until it finally occurred to me that it wasn’t on instagram, it was on Tik Tok, but I actually told her about it.

I try not to look at personal social media too much but I clicked in one time and she was doing a makeup video (they live in Europe) and she was talking about how she initially encountered my husband because they were at the visa office at the same time and how they ran into one another again because their physical visas were issued on the same day and they went for coffee after joking about running into one another.

Now they’re married

Anyway I did explain why I was trying to watch her stuff 100 times one evening



I'm not sure if you can see that someone viewed something multiple times- just that they did view it, vs not view it. At least on insta and FB. Unless no one has ever viewed any of my stuff more than once (also very possible, hah)


You can't. smh

Same I don't know how it works and the only Instagram account I have is my dog's.
If someone sends a link to something, and Duchess is logged in, that means Duchess watches it. Hope that doesn't confuse anyone.

And maybe more so for younger people. I became friends with my nephew. I was liking his stories and DS told me that is lame and you are only supposed to like really important stories. I don’t get it but that’s what he said.


This is what I’ve noticed too. I don’t get it either.
