        I get Instagram (lots of creative types there), Facebook is a bit surprising though.

            Where were you for the last decade? I’d think tiktok is starting to wind down by now, but me and my shaking stick wouldn’t know that.

              Not on Instagram and not keeping up with what preteens do, that’s for sure.
