The fact that some bonehead can make up an 8 word story about a dumb cake and get this kind of reaction from someone is just wild to me

i mean, "dumb cake" isn't a particularly useful comment about something. why can't people try to read into things? nothing means nothing, somebody made a weird gender reveal cake where girls are frilly bows and boys are police officers. that says something about whoever wanted the cake.

I don't understand it either but maybe it's just people using social media in different ways than me (memes, tech info, news).

I must say it usually annoys me slightly and I feel kind of emotional overload. Because I understand many people have problems but it isn't responsible or empathetic to just unload and burden us all with em and make us feel worse. Now I feel 20 years of original commenter backed up trauma and let me tell you it ain't pretty
