^ agreed. The world would be a better place, kids mental health would be better, our collective IQ would not plummet.

All the TikTok 'influencer' gasped ...

Tiktok has really helped kids/teens/tweens? Be more aware of world events and given them easier access to multiple sources of news, so really it's quite invaluable, ifs understandable why the US is afraid of it tho

The Stanley cup trend got out of hand cuz Facebook mom's got in on it

I can't speak on a grand scale, but I've seen numerous investment and real estate tiktoks that are giving out flat out WRONG advice if not borderline dangerous. Also car buying and financing information.

Tiktoks are stupid bite-sized media that appeal to people with super low attention spans who can't be bothered to think for themselves, like so many other things the presenters are not accredited or validated. I wouldn't trust any news received from this medium.

Been listening to a lot of CCR on my iPhone. So, here's an attempt at..............

Just got home from Trader Joe's
Locked the back door, oh boy
Got to sit down with a box of Joe Joe's

Imagination sets in
Pretty soon I'm singin'
Doo doo doo, looking at my cooler.........

That's as far as my brain can conjure up.

Anyway, I scored a rare collectable. I'm sure there are plenty in some parts of the US, but only three left yesterday at the Bellingham location and not getting anymore. I know a few workers there from going there at least once a week for eons. One of the guys did something for me they're not supposed to. Put aside items that are in high demand and short supply.

https://www.traderjoes.com/home/prod...ed-bags-078917

When I arrived first thing in the morning, one of the employees said, "Wow, we haven't seen you in nearly a month!" Told him I was in Japan. Scary when you get noticed like that. Anyway, I got two of them coolers.

All kinds of interesting fall items on the shelf. The best thing I snagged next to the mini cooler bags was the Pumpkin Brioche Twist. My fucking god, it's good.

https://www.traderjoes.com/home/prod...e-twist-069622

Then got the usual Kimbap (not so popular anymore, so plenty in stock) and Fig Bars. On advice from hardcore TJ's fanboi's subreddit, I got the Jalapeņo & Cream Cheese Crispy Wontons.

https://www.traderjoes.com/home/prod...wontons-077452

In my youth, I hated anything pumpkin, but now I love most things Pumpkin Spiced.

Pumpkin Spiced drinks, pancake and bread mixes, danish, soups, you name it.

These looked good so bought one. Haven't tried it yet.............

Also, the Triple Ginger Brew that's in the glass bottle with the flip release top is back in stock after being discontinued a few years ago. Not sure if it's as good as I remember it to be. I purchased two bottles. Will pop one open in the next couple of days. There's only so much I can consume by myself, jbol.

She "thinks" she has all the colours.............. two shades of yellow, for example. I believe I have most of them. We're talking about the really large ones.

All the colours of the cute mini ones, as well?? If so, I bow down to her. Most people can't even get one.
