Scroll With A Purpose

Scroll With A Purpose

By Vanessa Falcon

TikTok has become one of the most popular apps during quarantine times, but senseless scrolling is boring and oftentimes leads many with a craving for more. With such a huge social media platform, what’s important is knowing who to follow and who to watch. Luckily, it’s not so difficult to find people to keep an eye on.

Art is a big thing on TikTok, and the app has encouraged many to share their work and become famous. The app promotes sharing of talents and connecting with others, and with the millions of creators constantly uploading new content, there are plenty of wonderful artists that one can binge watch. 

For example Britney Lee (@brinty.art) has amazing art for all kinds of viewers, from anime lovers to art connoisseurs. Her DIY hydro-flask decorations are simply out of this world, and her paintings are jaw-dropping at how amazing they come out. Another artist known as Lef or @lefpaints has a cartoonish but adorable art style, and even walks the watchers through on his work. Now with time to improve on art, he is one of the best TikTokers to watch for beginning artists. 

For those into watching POV and acting TikToks, Em (@fruitbunnys) is an iconic and popular creator with a large following and amazing content, not to mention she’s a bisexual icon. Now, everyone knows @caoimhemorris, or Caoimhe for short. Her TikToks are creative, engaging, and they leave you waiting for the next post. She features others in her posts and even visits other people as well. Her page is diverse, communicative, and tells amazing stories for people to watch and enjoy. 

If acting or art isn’t what interests TikTok scrollers, then maybe its time to go into the humorous side of things. The “For You” page always has new videos in stock of the funniest memes you can find, but sometimes it’s not enough. It’s hard to find a consistently funny account, so hopping from account to account may be necessary. 

@urgirladrie is a Mexican plus-sized icon with many funny videos for her viewers to enjoy, while also having videos for body positivity. She advocates for plus-sized women while also slipping in some funny videos— the perfect combo. Liz, or @lozclaws, also has hilarious TikToks based on cheesy rom-coms and cliche movies that will make anyone giggle. 

Sam Andrews (@samueljeffersonandrews) became famous on TikTok, and for good reason, and now he is even posting on YouTube and has a large fanbase. For a good laugh, his videos are definitely worth watching. Even so, no one can beat the hidden gems you can only find by scrolling through social media for hours on end. 

Everyone has a different sense of humor, and so finding what best suits the watcher is all up to the person scrolling. So scroll with a purpose and find what best suits you.
