The Most Entertaining Takes From TikTok This Week

One day, we will be living in an era when TikTok is not the cultural monolith that we know in the present.

It is likely that, as with many other places that have influenced internet culture, its time in the sun will fade, and it will be relegated to history. Whether it gets taken down by political struggles, technical advancements, or a simple lack of interest, there could be any number of threats to the power of the clock app. Nothing is as infallible as it seems, especially as the way we interact with all things online continues to shift and develop.

In the meantime, though, we have no shortage of TikTok users ready and willing to entertain us with their interests, expertise, and dispatches from their lives. There is a large archive of videos to dig through on just about any topic imaginable, and more is being added with every passing day. If we really wanted to, we could be entertained for 24 hours straight by just continuously swiping on our For You pages.

Access to all of this content is enough to overwhelm even the most chronically online of individuals, but thankfully, it is possible to just take a look at some of the highlights to get the gist. We could try to do this by exercising some self-restraint, or we could avoid the clock app altogether and see what bits of it have escaped containment and come to the wider internet. What can be found below is a mixture of these, giving us an idea of the kind of thing that TikTokers are into right now.
