Sooo Tiktok Is Back, But Since Its A Ploy To Get Gen Z To Try And Ride Trumps Little Small Dick I Aint

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AO3 WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

the fact that chappell roans good luck babe blew up because of a Maxley edit will never not be legendary and so fricking funny, I love chappell roan🫶🫶🫶 and thank you maxley for being the catalyst to her winning a grammy last night (this is obv a joke and her hard work is obv thr reason shes won and is here but its still funny)

A story to boost the morale of a broken country.

What you may have missed with the TikTok ban going into effect is an Appeals Court just ruled DACA illegal two days before Trump takes office again with the promise carry out mass deportation starting on day 1.

who was gonna tell me megatrons original atl-form was a fucking pistol💀💀 bro is literally 9 ft tall HOW!?!????

also, when optimus gets his new alt form in the show, tell me why when he transforms a cargo box fhat trucks usually carry is suddenly drawn into frame??? like where is it coming from??? is this just 80s tv show logic???😭😭😭 bc i can tell you rjght now it wasnt there in the first frame.

being politically active when your friends dgaf is not for the weak. my friends were celebrating the tiktok ban while i had to sit there knowing that it's an infringement of the first amendment and a sign of america's crawl into fascism, but you cant just say "yeah clean girl and girl dinner and tiktok ban and nara smith are all signs of fascism" to someone not politically active because they'll write you off as a conspiracy theorist

so when trump takes office on monday and “saves tiktok” with a 90 day extension on the tiktok ban decision, then during that period mark zuckerberg “suddenly” decided to buy tiktok and have meta absorb it, then what.

trump created this problem when he introduced the tiktok ban in his first term and he’s going to take credit for “solving” it now. the tiktok ceo made a video thanking trump for “understanding the app” then the error message says we are grateful to trump for working with us on this ?? AND he’s invited to sit front row at the inauguration??? oh also new facebook/tiktok integrations popping up today ???

trump’s dick is in the tiktok ceo’s mouth the deal is already done

Overused Words in Writing & How to Avoid Them

We’ve all got our comfort words—those trusty adjectives, verbs, or phrases we lean on like a crutch. But when certain words show up too often, they lose their impact, leaving your writing feeling repetitive or uninspired.

1. “Very” and Its Cousins

Why It’s Overused: It’s easy to tack on “very” for emphasis, but it’s vague and doesn’t pull its weight.

Instead of: “She was very tired.” Try: “She was exhausted.” / “She dragged her feet like lead weights.”

💡 Tip: Use precise, vivid descriptions rather than vague intensifiers.

2. “Looked” and “Saw”

Why It’s Overused: It’s functional but flat, and it often tells instead of shows.

Instead of: “He looked at her in disbelief.” Try: “His eyebrows shot up, his lips parting as if words had failed him.”

💡 Tip: Focus on body language or sensory details instead of relying on generic verbs.

3. “Suddenly”

Why It’s Overused: It’s often used to create surprise, but it tells readers how to feel instead of letting the scene deliver the shock.

Instead of: “Suddenly, the door slammed shut.” Try: “The door slammed shut, the sound ricocheting through the empty room.”

💡 Tip: Let the action or pacing create urgency without needing to announce it.

4. “Said” (When Overdone or Misused)

Why It’s Overused: While “said” is often invisible and functional, using it in every dialogue tag can feel robotic.

Instead of: “I can’t believe it,” she said. “Me neither,” he said. Try: Replace with an action: “I can’t believe it.” She ran a hand through her hair, pacing. “Me neither.” He leaned against the counter, arms crossed.

💡 Tip: Don’t ditch “said” entirely; just mix it up with context clues or action beats.

5. “Felt”

Why It’s Overused: It’s a shortcut that tells instead of showing emotions.

Instead of: “She felt nervous.” Try: “Her palms slicked with sweat, and she couldn’t stop her leg from bouncing.”

💡 Tip: Let readers infer emotions through sensory details or behavior.

6. “Really” and “Actually”

Why It’s Overused: They add little to your sentences and can dilute the impact of stronger words.

Instead of: “I really don’t think that’s a good idea.” Try: “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

💡 Tip: If a sentence works without these words, cut them.

7. “Walked” or “Ran”

Why It’s Overused: These are go-to movement words, but they can feel bland when used repeatedly.

Instead of: “He walked into the room.” Try: “He strolled in like he owned the place.” / “He shuffled in, avoiding everyone’s eyes.”

💡 Tip: Use verbs that convey mood, speed, or attitude.

8. “Just”

Why It’s Overused: It sneaks into sentences unnecessarily, weakening your prose.

Instead of: “I just wanted to say I’m sorry.” Try: “I wanted to say I’m sorry.”

💡 Tip: Delete “just” unless it adds essential nuance.

9. “Thought”

Why It’s Overused: It tells readers what a character is thinking instead of showing it through internal dialogue or action.

Instead of: “She thought he might be lying.” Try: “His story didn’t add up. The timelines didn’t match, and he wouldn’t meet her eyes.”

💡 Tip: Immerse readers in the character’s perspective without announcing their thoughts.

10. “Nice” and Other Vague Adjectives

Why It’s Overused: It’s generic and doesn’t give readers a clear picture.

Instead of: “He was a nice guy.” Try: “He always remembered her coffee order and held the door open, even when his arms were full.”

💡 Tip: Show qualities through actions instead of relying on vague descriptors.

Final Tips for Avoiding Overused Words:

1. Use a thesaurus wisely: Swap overused words for synonyms, but stay true to your character’s voice and the scene’s tone.

2. Read your work aloud: You’ll catch repetitive patterns and clunky phrases more easily.

3. Edit in layers: Focus on eliminating overused words during your second or third pass, not your first draft.

i think its funny that its canon that tfone bee does tiktok lives and tiktok dances

Attention!

I would like to bring to your notice @ashleymilesphil, who is a trans refugee from Uganda living in Kakuma Refugee Camp in South Sudan. Due to Uganda's anti-LGBTQ+ laws and general intolerence for members of the LGBTQ+ community, Ashley and other queer refugees have had to flee Uganda and live in a refugee camp. Life there is not easy either; they experience hatred and sexual assault.

Ashley is acting as a spokesperson for these members of the LGBTQ+ community and is asking for funds that will cover

Food

Clean water

Medication

Shelter

Ashley and her fellow refugees are dealing with unclean conditions, and are being exposed to many diseases that are common in crowded refugee camps, like malaria, cholera, tuberculosis, and typhoid. Some members also need medication for HIV/AIDS.
