Ken Pierce Media Posts 950th Clip on TikTok

Greetings my dear friends out there in TikTok land, I am saying a very loud and somewhat boisterous “Welcome Back” because I have to admit that I thought when we were doing this the last time back in early January, I felt that it would have been my last broadcast of this nature based on the ban that TikTok was facing. You might recall that the at the time sitting President Biden signed off on banning the social media platform for matters of national security but once Donald Trump defeated him he reviewed this and kept pushing the ban aside. You’re not going to get much politics from me, but I was surely glad that he did that since I felt there were other items overlooked during the Biden presidency that were greater risks to our national security. I am stoked to have gotten right back into the posting of these briefs and now that another increment of “50” has been achieved we can add another notch to our website publishing belt. The short down below comes from the recent NY NOW Gifting Show and one of the booths that I explored. This is called “The Gifting Suite” and many exhibitors leave products to be taken by VIP Buyers and the Media. I love this part of the trade show since it gives me something else to talk about and here now is post #950.

The TikTok Social Media Platform and More Are Now Banned In The United States

Well, they said it would be banned and here we are. TikTok is effectively inaccessible in the United States of America to protect our interests and for National Security sake. You’re seeing this notice super early in the morning if you’re still awake but I can say that I lost access to my account at around 10PM EST after I had updated the profile just a little bit. Let’s review the timeline of this.

The Timeline:
4/23/2024: The Senate passed legislation to force the Chinese owned TikTok to be sold to a US Owner or be banned in the coming months.
4/24: President Biden signs the legislation for TikTok to be banned in the United States unless its sold by ByteDance to a US owner.
1/17/25: Supreme Court Unanimously upholds the Federal Law to ban TikTok with only hours to go before its Official Ban Date.
1/18/2025: TikTok goes offline in the United States. A few hours on the day before it was supposed to. A message seen on the application informs its 170M strong user base that now President Donald Trump would look to working on solution to resolve this.

Ken Pierce Media Posts 900th Clip on TikTok

Greetings my dear friends out there in TikTok land, I am saying a loud but also a little bit sad “Welcome Back” for while I have yet again achieved another “50” post plateau on the platform, this could very well be our last one based on the US ban that is now less than a couple of weeks away. There are now “900” videos on the TikTok for Ken Pierce Media and while these never generated any real website traffic vibe, they have done rather well on the platform itself. The funny thing is I usually mentally map out a post like this with something that is right on point with my passions. So something comic book, KISS or maybe even Godzilla to have it be easier to talk about but since I was so busy doing the Christmas tree videos I lost count and then realized that a few videos from the past summers Anime NYC were not online and that led me to having the awesome artist King Guro aka Kris Starlein be the 900th TikTok video on Ken Pierce Media’s profile.

Ken Pierce Media Posts 850th Clip on TikTok

Greetings friends and those who are TikTokking along with the Ken Pierce Media profile on the TikTok platform. I’ve hit another plateau and reached the increment a little faster as I had expected since I was doing more than one clip per day. Effective immediately there are now a grand total of “850” videos on the account and this latest one comes from a recent visit to the Five Below store not far from Union Square. I was off to an art event at the time and it was here that I managed to get my hands on the complete set of Janda’s “Transformers” MetalFigs. There are only four of them and since they had the lot and for such a nice price I could not resist. You can see for yourself as I proudly present the 850th TikTok from Ken Pierce Media.

Well hello again my friends and “Welcome Back” to our occasionally popping up series about the Official Ken Pierce Media TikTok profile. Dedicated readers already know this but for the newbies in the room who have just arrived I do his for each increment of “50” posts. It’s almost hard to believe that I am now at “800” videos on TikTok because it was a platform that I never really wanted to begin using in the first place. Since the time of my first creating a profile, which was in 2021, it would take more than a year before I even used it. Longtime readers of the stuff happening on PiercingMetal will be amused at the clip that arrived for this plateau since its a hefty tome that is all about “The Hottest Band In The World” KISS. This is a Quarto Book by Martin Popoff and takes the reader through KISStory. They are my very favorite band ever and now here’s the 800th TikTok from Ken Pierce Media.

Here’s a clip from the NY NOW Summer Market where I leafed through a copy of “KISS at 50” from @QuartobooksUS and Martin Popoff. Learn why they were “The Hottest Band In The World” #fyp #foryoupage #quartobooks #kiss #martinpopoff #nynow #piercingmetal
