  • Should I Buy A Purse Kindle?

    Should I Buy A Purse Kindle?
    Nov 23 2024
    Candice Lim is joined by Wall Street Journal reporter Ann-Marie Alcántara to discuss #KindleTok’s rise among millennials and Gen-Z. 17 years ago, Amazon released the Kindle as a tech device that seemed to resonate as a nerdy, bookworm gadget. But it’s now become Tiktok’s must-have accessory to complete the cozy, girly pop lifestyle. With Black Friday coming up, ICYMI is breaking down the rise of the Kindle, the pushback on #KindleTok, and how the pandemic may have contributed to a new generation of gooseneck stand-obsessed Kindle devotees.

    Nov 16 2024

TikTok users are talking about the way they use ChatGPT as their therapist, their best friend, their life organizer, and more.

just when I was starting to like them

this episode left me feeling annoyed. "all the words are Black/LGBT words. it's hard to trace the actual origin of words and we only know 1 for sure has a documented Black origin. but all the words are Black/LGBT words."
"it's cringe that they used cringe. I can't believe how cringe it is. isn't it so cringe?" 😒
and the solution to using the current internet vocabulary without commuting cultural appropriation: give money to black people and be Bruno Mars.
