Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's the B ninety three Morning Show. I'm Ali Mack.
Here are three things you should know today. Casnovia Township
mourning the loss of deputy fire Chief Sam Demes, who
tragically passed in a car crash on Tuesday. He was
just twenty five years old, remembered by his department as
a passionate firefighter dedicated to serving others. More details will
(00:20):
be shared soon, with the community being asked to keep
his family in their thoughts. Thousands of Facebook groups, from
pet pictures to coupon clippers. I mean, it didn't really
seem like there was a rhyme or a reason to this.
They were suddenly all suspended off of Facebook this week,
and the violations that they got were pretty vague, and
they seem to be different depending on which group it was.
(00:42):
So it's kind of hard to make sense of this.
But Meta saying it was a technical glitch. We're going
to work on it, We're going to fix it. But
here's the thing, they gave no timeline. Some groups are
slowly coming back, but frustrated users are blaming faulty AI
and they are demanding answers. M can you imagine just
having like your social media gone overnight.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
They tell me. I feel like they tell us, they
don't tell us.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
They I get tagged in something telling me my social
media is gonna be gone every single day. So at
first I'd be like, oh, it's just there, believe it. Yeah,
it's just goofing, And then I'd see it and go
what m And I'm telling you it's the robots. This
is how they start.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
I don't even want to tempt the universe like this
because it's just been so many years and so many
posts and so much work to like get where we
are on social media. But honestly, if I got kicked
off any single one of the platforms right now, I
do not think I would try to get back on there.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
I'd be like, well, I'm done.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
That's yeah, that's this is my journey now. Apparently this
is where I'm supposed to be like, uh, what's what's
is it?
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Twitter? Is it X? I don't know what it is anymore.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
I offloaded that app from my phone, yeah, because I'm
just there's just apps like our disappearance.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
So you're right, I agree with you. Yeah, that goes away,
it goes away.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Unless it was TikTok. I might I might try to
create a new account on TikTok. I really like it.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
I do like TikTok and Instagram. But if the rest
of I mean, if they go away, I wouldn't. I
don't want them to. But if they did, they it's
the lord's choice.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I guess.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Amazon just brought back Prime for young adults. They're offering
discounted memberships if you're eighteen to twenty four, so you
get all the Prime perks at half the price. It
starts with a six month free trial and then it
drops to seven dollars and forty nine cents a month,
just in time for Prime Day deals July eighth through
the eleven. That's three things you should know. Here is
(02:37):
one you probably.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Shouldn't speaking of social media.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
This is from your Tango dot com.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Eleven things people do on social media that seem normal
but actually kind of kind of insane. Social media is
full of wild habits, and we've all done these. Every
single one of us has done at least one of these.
Social media is full of wild habits we've normalized. Here
are eleven things people on line that are kind of insane.
Stalk someone's account that is wild, That is wild wild.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
That's not wild, that's normal.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
That's wild. We've all done it.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
But it is wild to click through, especially if you
get deep in some pictures just.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
To see what somebody's doing. That's, if you think about it.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
People are curious by nature. I don't think that's a
big deal. Watching without liking lurkers see all. I don't
think that's weird.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
To easy support nothing of you.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Users never engage makes you wonder why they're even following.
Rewatch your own content, I don't think that's weird either.
That one I don't think is weird. I rewatch my
own stuff a lot, but that's just to make sure
that it went off like it was supposed to. Sure,
obsessing over an excess photo. I haven't done that in
a long time, but I've done it.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Yeah, that one is unfortunate.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
But deleting posts that don't get likes, I would have
to delete a lot of posts.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
No, I would have to delete all care.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
I mean, we care a little.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Care if I don't get likes, I guess, but I
don't care enough to delete it, Like I don't care
that much.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Checking who viewed your stuff? Why are time to time?
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Yeah? Why I have stories what's the point of stories
of views if you don't have U If you're not
doing that zooming in on people's backgrounds just to see
what's in the picture.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
I've done that. That one. That's the one I probably
do the most. It's one of these when you're just
kind of doing.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Getting mad when friends don't like your posts. Never done that,
sharing it in real time, turning kids into content.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I don't really do that when.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
That's a fine line.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yeah, because the people who do it wrong do it
like really really wrong, where it's like those are your kids.
But the people who are just like happy with their
lives and like sharing their memories super cute. I love
to see what you're doing on the weekend.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
It is, Yeah, it is too. It feels weird.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Well, you ever seen the videos like the screw Ups
where they make their kids like cry and make their
kids like do.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
Certain that's it's super uncomfortable.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Creating fake identities to escape real life. And that's what
social media is. I mean in that show to an extent, Yeah,
not everybody's doing everything that they're saying. They're doing it
Instagram for the most part, probably, and then like the
regular accounts, but like those big celebrities where they're like,
I just drink out of a diamond bathtub in the
(05:09):
middle of Paris and an island.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Well, this is my private jet. Well is it your
private jet that's a film set?
