Always surprised how many people have gotten married on the Titanic in a sub!

TikTok Ban Heads to Senate
The US House of Representatives voted 352-65 yesterday to ban TikTok in the US unless its Chinese-based parent company, Bytedance, divests the popular social video network's US operations within six months. The bill's prospects in the Senate are unclear, though President Joe Biden has said he would sign the bill should it pass.

The legislation is rooted in long-standing concerns from US officials that China could access the personal data of American users of the app—like browsing history, location, or biometrics. Fueling this worry is China's 2017 National Intelligence Law, which requires Chinese businesses to cooperate with national intelligence efforts. A ban would significantly disrupt TikTok's 170 million US monthly active users and 5 million businesses, likely pushing them and advertisers to competitors Meta, Google, and Snap.

A federal judge blocked a Montana state ban on TikTok in November over concerns it infringed on First Amendment speech rights. The ban proposal comes on the heels of TikTok's worst quarter for annual user growth in company history

29F and I feel like if I was truly attractive, I would get approached by guys in person but I never do. I get told that guys look at me but they never actually do anything about it, I’m told I’m attractive and I’m learning to like myself more but I can’t help but feel like if I really was hot shit I would always be in a relationship or actively approached by guys. But I’m not, only on the apps 🥴

Have you ever eaten/ chewed chewing gum?

And was it for flavor or breath?

I ask this simple question only because I wondered how many people have maybe went their whole lives or childhoods WITHOUT ever tasting gum before.

• Do you remember the first flavor you ever tried?
  
  
• Have you ever swallowed one accidentally?
• Did you learn to blow bubbles? 🫧

- The first brand I ever tried was double mint. My mom always had those and would chew some on the way to church 😆 she was in the choir and loved to socialize!

One time at church my sister gave me her favorite- trident bubble gum

BUT

my all time favorite was the NEW triple! Flavor/layered? Trident gum, and it was the first (that I knew/know of) that had the double decker pack. So instead of one row, you basically had two, in a foldable sized box. The new flavor was (I forgot the name lol.. I only ever saw the image) it had a strawberry with an orange slice in the middle. 🍓 🍊.

If it wasn’t for my sister and mother, I think I would’ve went quite some time, but then again- everybody in school always had their moment of offering others gum. For some reason people liked to share this, and I actually don’t know why 🤔.

Did you ever try gum? What brand was the first or most memorable? Do you have a favorite now?

- did you chew any for exams? 😳

I read this on a relationship therapist/coach's post, and it didn't strike me quite right. While I agree it takes acting on love to build a good relationship, without the feeling of love, those actions are just a duty. And I also believe that while lust shouldn't be considered love, and it can be fleeting, it's also important for a thriving, loving relationship.

What do you think?

This is a popular question/debate in Korea. 내가 좋아하는 사람 vs 나를 좋아하는 사람.

which one looks the prettiest?
