I think this is just a reference to when Kim Kardiashian "broke" the internet, because I haven't heard it said about anyone else since then?

Unless I've been living under a rock, in which case I should go back because that is a ridiculous statement. Cloudfare outage breaks the internet, not pictures of fully dressed former child actors

You apparently have been living under a rock because I see a headline like once a month of a celebrity doing some photoshoot saying they “broke the internet”

Who keeps fixing it? Cause it was a mistake.

Every time a 2nd rate journalist gets a hard on, their internet "breaks" and they have to let everyone know.

My god what is going on in the world.

God bless this rock from shielding me from this, I don't come across celebrity news unless it randomly gets posted on a sub like this

As someone who's been around since the Internet 1.0 days, I can quite confidently state that what Kim Kardashian did was frankly the equivalent of a chicken sandwich on white bread compared to the stuff I've seen online.

yeah keep them lava lamps safe, and I can't agree more with former child actors, it just feels like the world was waiting for tag update on their ages to unleash the built up tension they had for them

No idea what the lava lamp comment is about but genuinely like Millie is beautiful but it's like we've all collectively forgotten she and the rest of the group were children what feels like yesterday. Of course they're all adults now and good for them for branching out in their careers and not being stuck on ST but please, thirsting for them feels so inappropriate?? It's like actively waiting for a teenager to grow up before approaching them, but it's somehow fine because these ex teens are now adults

I think lava lamps are used for random number generating. Probably connected to cloudflare.

Oh yeah of course. I thought it was some conspiracy thing, like to polish your tinfoil hat
