ngl i'm a little confused at the fact that we're watching this when Maker Studios lowkey crashed and burned...

At first, I was getting slightly confused at times not realizing that this was before TikTok. I thought that’s what he meant by short form. And 8 years from now, a student is going to see this and be like “oh my gosh, that comment is from when TikTok was still a thing” then press the button on the back of his head and go into rest mode or something like that. So if you’re watching this in 2030, be sure to reply to this comment and let me know what changes over the course of the next 8 years. Thx
