Episode #7: TikTok Rants | Week of Dec. 9th, 2024

Hi. It's Josh.Since the election, I have been posting longer rants on my TikTok account, which until recently, has rarely contained a video over 60 seconds long.I have been building that account for a couple of years now, and it has been an absolute pleasure to post daily (or several times a day) and learn things about myself and the world that I did not ever imagine learning.This is to say, TikTok is its own universe unlike any other social media app. Is it also, frankly, not for the faint of heart. If you are there, please do follow me, because there is so much content that I do not post elsewhere.Today, however, I have started to rip the audio from some of my longer videos. I have edited three of those posts together for your pleasure (or not, let's see.) If you are not on TikTok and still want to see the original videos, I have included YouTube links.TikTok Rants | Week of Dec. 9th, 20241. Don't Shop Oligarchs (5:14) | YouTube2. Keep Your Self-Identifying Flags and Emojis. Not a Protest… A Test!

Strange for a ten year old? Yes!My writing today is governed by deadpan sarcasm that goes granular on various cultural topics that I am deeply curious about. I hope you enjoy this sometimes snarky stream of consciousness.I'm serious about not taking life too seriously.™❤️ 🏳️‍🌈 ✡️ 🧘‍♂️ 🥯 🍔 🍩+++Connect with me:You can visit and get to know me everywhere at superjews.com.
