rant time

This bothers me so much. On Tiktok I keep seeing these videos with dogs tied up and then the person says ie) “someone left this dog tied up outside here at this gas station. Whoooo would dooo something like this??…” then every comment is eating it up, “keep it!”, “the dog looks so happy next to you now”, I'm so happy he’s with you now”. Okay idk if people are just gullible, straight up stupid or just kids. But those videos are scams. Fake fake fake af. They use these animal videos to gain views. it’s usually the persons own fucking animal and they act like someone tied it up and left it. They do this with other animals too. I saw one with 3 guinea pigs. I admit I fell for it but it crossed my mind what people do for views and I quickly realized how staged it all is. The over the top, dragged out words as if they’re actually saying it like “oh darnn, who would ever leave such a sweet animal out here all tied up? Geeee, that’s messed up”. Or they don’t say anything and they just put this sappy fake story written up on the video. The amount of comments and positive feedback the videos get too omg. I’m more annoyed by the comments.  I hope people are just naive and not flat out stupid. I just saw this one and in the description of the video it says it’s a skit. The video ended up with a million likes so the person started to milk it. Despite his past videos being of his dogs, one of which looks exactly like the tied up dog. oh and him saying it’s a skit solidifies it. so does no one notice that? or notice the identical dog he’s always had?? The one he posted in the video acting like someone tied it up and dropped it off at his house was in old videos. The comments are STILL asking if he’s keeping it and how happy they are ~the dog is with him now~. it’s so cringe I can’t take it! Omg and someone in the comments was like “call the cops” and the kid in the video replies via video “guys we’re not gonna do anything drastic”. Lmao yea cuz it’s your dog and these people eat it up. that’s just one example I saw today. I usually see it scrolling thru at least once or twice when I'm on the app. 

it’s going to my next rant… I know people are obsessed with fame but I guess I never think about that. But I'm noticing it a ton on Tiktok. The only live I watch regularly is Kelon. so when I watch him playing his characters and stuff a lot of the times when he pairs up with another person that person is like yelling to their crowd begging for likes and gifts. “let’s go let’s go like the live and send roses send gifts. let’s gooo let’s goooo” like that’s their entire presence on live/tiktok. Kelon will try and start the conversation up and sometimes the people just ignore his attempts. Usually that’s when he ends chat with that person. it’s like these people are just bots. Programmed to repeat and do the same things. I see grown ass people begging for likes and more points to beat the opponent in a battle. No conversation with the person they’re battling or just live chatting with. They straight up ignore the other person and just beg. it’s super awkward to watch. Pathetic? I think so. i think that’s the word I'm looking for. To each their own and all. Do what you wanna do… but kind of makes me think those people have no personality. they’re just mindless.  Too obsessed with fame that hardly lasts a week. Most viral videos only go viral for that one video. that’s why you see that one viral video and on their page you see them making more and more of the same videos hoping it becomes a thing. Spoiler alert, it rarely does. I just thinks it’s weird and especially when they are middle aged people begging for likes. that’d be like my my bf or mom  sitting on Tiktok lives begging for people to “tap the like and send send send virtual gifts”. just trying to picture that i can’t lmao it’s so fucking lame.  

I use to care about likes and views too, but as I got older I just started caring less and less. its just sad we have these devices to communicate with one another but people like on Tiktok lives will pair with another human being and have no communication. they’re both sitting on a screen with each other , essentially a face time call and they’re ignoring each other. Not talking. No “where are you from? How is your day going?” just both sides yelling to their audience to like like like and send gifts. it’s sad and it reminds me of a Wall•E. with all the obese people on their moving chairs, eating snacks and watching a screen. They don’t ever acknowledge the person in front of them or behind them. they don’t even realize they’re there. Sometimes I step back and realize I’m so fucking wrapped up in my own world/mind I forget the good things I have in front of me. For example my experience being that when my bf comes home from work I’m usually not nice, don’t wanna talk, don’t wanna answer questions all because something is bothering me inside about something and I get anxious and stressed about it which then ruins my mood and entire day. but then sometimes I’ll kinda snap out of it and realize I can probably change this mood. to try to do that I think about love. As gay as that might sound, if I just think about love and how much my bf loves me and everything he does for me I will force a change in my mood and once I’m out of that mood I change into a happier mood and realize how I need to make this a habit. I think my attitude and stressed mindset are often times bad habits. I know I have depression and it causes my cynical thinking but there are sometimes where I’m just straight up being moody for no reason because of the bad habit of thinking too much. I know I’ll never be able to change that 100%  because it’s who I am, but when I do notice, I wanna try to change the negative into a positive by realizing I have a good life. I have a loving family I’m very close with and a loving boyfriend who would do anything for me and my family. it’s the most important thing in life to me.
