Politicians can't control the political narrative on tiktok. That's the bottom line. Anyone (kids) can access porn on the internet yet they're concerned about china? (Supposedly). This is what they do when the lies stop working

As someone who survived the cutthroat sport of Ty resale back in the 90s, it would appear that both Cookie and Nutmeg are readily available both on the TY website and have no resale value on eBay. I don't really care if you are reporting the facts about any other topics, but this is a fairly serious issue.

Yes, very well noted. Ty tweeted that they’re back in stock! :) The tweet should be linked in my piece. Unfortunately they’re still out of stock at some CVS’ but they’ll be stocking more soon (per my local CVS). 🥰

I wonder why Discord was left out of the research. Most of the gen-z people I know including myself use discord almost like an “everything app” for socializing online

What’s so frustrating about the desire for education is that most social media sites have no way to get rid of mis- and disinformation and some (X) encourage it! So people are getting “educated” on wrong things or completely misinformed but because it seems like it’s a reputable source (Elon Musk), they think they’re informed. I know I’ve been duped by a Tik Tok that seemed legit. I don’t know a counter to this. You’ve seen the stats, people who had no or bad news sources voted for Trump by like 30 points. People are getting bad info.
