  • Of all the things that have come across my TikTok for you page this year, this is certainly the most fun and nerve-wracking. TikTok users are using a meme and cat pictures to play a for you page fueled role-playing game. Let's talk about the TikTok Cat Dabloon Game.

      @@alienjesus796 try not clicking not interested and instead don’t open the comments or linger on the video just scroll past it immediately. Tik tok tracks those as indicators of you wanting to see that contact and the more you disengage the less it shows up. Also try searching for things you want to see and likening those videos. This is basically how I tailored my fyp and never see stuff I don’t want to see.

    This reminds me of when I was a kid and me and my friends had overprotective parents who wouldn't let us play Howrse so we made an extensive on paper horse game where you could breed, raise, buy/sell, and even show and race horses. My friends who played the game with me figured out very quickly that they could basically have infinite money because if they came up with a new horse I would buy it because it was sad and needed a home so I ended up with like 300 horses and no money and was in debt to the horse bank for food while they rolled in all the money I ever got my hands on 😅

    This is so funny to me :D But it also reminds me of an experiment my aunt did in her class when teaching economics.. She brought a small box with an island on it to school and Ken (from barbie) and asked her students what they would do living on that island. Like how to divide work forces and what would happen if there was an amputee or an elderly person etc. They made up a social economy :D and then it clicked for them. For many this might only be a game, but I am sure everyone will learn from it :)

    I can’t handle tiktok, everything feels too fast-paced and being on there too long gives me sensory overload, but I’m so glad little dumb adventures like this happen on there from time to time. I love that they took a fairly simple meme and turned it into a whimsical story about inflation and unstable governments and mushroom hats.
