Escape Lockdown With These God Tier TikTok's
Overview
TikTok has eaten up a lot of my time and for good reason - I've learnt a lot, have had a lot of laughs and saw the world through one app.
When TikTok started off as Music.ly, I didn’t give it any credit at all. You know, those ads popping up on YouTube that you weren’t able to skip and you’d be forced to watch someone dance to stock music.
Although, when the pandemic hit, it was an app that I was going on for hours at a time. Literally. It would be 8:00pm then suddenly it’s 10:00pm and I’M STILL SCROLLING - I devote most of my screen time to TikTok. As comedic as the platform is, I’ve still learnt some pretty cool stuff on there like cleaning my AirPods with Blu-tack, how to use voice-to-text on a Mac, how to properly clean a sink and some delicious Ramen recipes that even I can put together.
It may be a bit sappy to say this but the app is an escape for me - you get to see what’s happening in the world outside of your little bubble, content creators are lighting up your days and it has something in it for everyone.
So, without further ado, here are some of our favourite TikTok’ers that are doing god’s work in keeping us sane during lockdown:

From niche high school references like "I'll wait - I've had my lunch, year 10" to how your English teacher would analyse prescribed texts, Milli's accuracy in her skits are on point and will dig up some memories you never thought you'd relive!

Eessa's videos are a vibe - hence his name. From videos impersonating his mother to his hilarious commentary - you cannot go past Eessa!

These videos are so heartwarming and never fail to put a smile on my face - they give off a Humans of New York vibe and once I'm on the profile, I will not stop scrolling.

I genuinely think this is how birds communicate because not one spring goes by without me getting swooped. Anyway, Sam Cotton has some quality content.

It would be rude if we didn't give ourselves a cheeky plug. @year13au for all your nostalgic mems!
What would lockdown look like without TikTok? Pretty bloody sad, I reckon. Support your faves on the app and keep the vibes high with this lot!
