Intuitive, yeah!

I’m trying to work something out on Tiktok.

I want to flip the screen, left to right, horizontally

So book titles come out normal not mirror-writing.

What usually happens is happening.

I try Google, get a lot of adverts and then

Find two or three possible solutions.

I try one: “go to Edit, then hit ‘flip’”

Except there is no word ‘flip’ under Edit.

Go to Effects and hit ‘flip.’

There is no ‘flip’ under Effects.

Then one that said “find an old video in Videos”

And then do some really complicated shit

I couldn’t follow because the shiny-eyed child

Spoke too fast and mumbled and I had no idea

What he was even talking about…

I know that there must be some way

Of flipping the screen but I just can’t find it

And I’m feeling sick and my eyes are hot

And I want to cry with frustration so I stop.

Why aren’t there any instructions?
