Dear TikTok/Short form creators.

Put the damn lavalier mic on your lapel where it’s supposed to be and stop waving it around in front of the camera.

Same goes for your ear bud microphone.

Stop it.

  I’m totally convinced we’re going to have 65” panels turned portrait-wise because sometime in 2027 virtually all video content will be shot in 60 second bursts to appease the TikTok generation (starrwulfe.xyz/t/22j)

  One of the most infuriating developments on the internet of the last decade.
