If you have a minute for a lighthearted break from the general grimness, you might enjoy this video of texts tones as dance moves (on Twitter - here the original video on TikTok), a compilation of 40 text tones with associated dance moves performed by dance/choreography duo Cost n’ Mayor (also on Instagram). Enjoy!

Could probably work as an exercise set which would be more interesting than most exercise.

Except most of the time would be spent sitting around waiting for someone to text you

The commercial jingles they a couple years ago(!) did were fun.

I was assuming you'd use the video to lead you.

I watched this series play out over weeks and loved every minute of it. They are one of my favorite TikTok accounts. The ads they create for their TikTok advertisers are also really, really good!

There are a lot of fun things on TikTok - it just takes a bit of curation at the start to weed out what you don't want to see and then the For You Page (FYP) is really (eerily) good at taking it from there.

I saw this the other day and was absolutely delighted. Just perfectly wonderful comic choreography.

Replicating "update" would be its own challenge.

My daughter and I totally enjoyed this and tried to copy them -- and worked up a sweat in no time.
