What's next for me? Maybe TikTok hair tutorials! First, I have to learn how to do hair.

Today’s joy came via TikTok, where my feed knows me a little too well.


It was a glorious scroll of:

  • ChatGPT hacks I didn’t know I needed, especially with the GPT5 launch. Yes, I'm an AI nerd.

  • Women in fake beards reenacting Hamilton like their lives depended on it

  • And a music video mashup of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse’s “Hot Dog” song, performed by a group of men in all-black streetwear, looking very much like they did not sign up for this. It was AMAZING!!


And I laughed. Out loud. Alone.

Multiple times.

Joy, found in the algorithm.


P.S. I think I need to become a TikTok creator again…

if only to make some friends!
