Alright. So let me tell y'all something. TikTok has got to stop dropping me off in places I never asked to go. I swear, I'll open the app just trying to scroll, relax, maybe laugh a little, and somehow I end up in the middle of the most outrageous, unnecessary mess. And this time oh this time took me out. Because why am I sitting there listening to a grown woman go into full detail about what she did with her son's basketball coach? And not only that, she's proud of it, posting videos, multiple videos saying his name, talking about his life, and I'm just sitting there like this what is actually happening right now? Now listen, I don't even know if this story is true or not. And honestly, I don't even care at this point. Because truth or not, the bigger issue is this. Why would you get on the internet? Beyonce's internet. Show your face and put something like that out there when you have a child. A child who has to wake up, get dressed, and go to school. Do you understand what that means? Kids are ruthless. Adults gossip, teachers talk. The internet does not forget. So now your son has to walk into that building with the people whispering, looking, judging off of something you chose to put online. And for what? Attention, views, a couple of likes. That's the part that really gets me. Because some things, whether you do them or not, should stay private. Not everything needs to be content. Not everything needs to be shared. We have completely lost the idea of boundaries. And then to bring up that this man is married, now you dragging other people into your mess, families, reputations, lives, all for social media. It's just too much. And what really blows my mind is I didn't go looking for this. TikTok just said, boom, here you go, and drop me right in the middle of it. And I stayed watching, like, there is no way she's about to say more. And then she did.

She did, y'all. She she really did.

SPEAKER_00 4:12

She did. She she talked about eating this coach's ass and sucking his ass and the tattoo he had on his butt.

SPEAKER_01 4:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 4:27

Woo! Okay. I'm telling you right now, we need to bring back the days where everything didn't have to be announced, recorded, and posted for the world to see. Some things belong in your personal life. Some things belong behind closed doors. And most importantly, when you have kids, you move different. You think different because it's not just about you anymore. And TikTok, if you listening, stop dropping me off in these situations. I didn't ask for this. I really didn't.

SPEAKER_01 5:24

So stop. Stop, just to stop.

SPEAKER_00 5:29

Drop me off somewhere else. Okay? Just TikTok, please. No more, okay? But anyway, that's my thoughts on that mess. Y'all let me know. Am I tripping or has social media just gone way too far? Don't forget to follow rates and share the podcast. And I'll catch y'all in the next one.
