I’m 41 and watch 20-25 hours of TikTok a week. I love it. Glad it’ll be back early next week, most likely.

Lol I'm about your age and I'm sometimes embarrassed about the hour or two I end up watching across all my bathroom sessions but c'mon 25 hours. That's too much.

Who’s to say it’s too much? I enjoy it.

I’m over 1/2-way thru my life. I think I know what I like doing with my time by this point.

I'll watch 90 mins of TikTok and think I could have watched an entire movie; then I remember I actually enjoyed myself anyway and stomp down the guilty feeling.

What makes you confident it will be back early next week?

Looks like it’s back already lol.

The thing that made me confident was that the mentioned Trump by name (telling me they knew he was going to make a change).
