the actual Try Guys announcement vidthis feels reductive of a situation in which there was a big power imbalance in a unethical relationship in the workplace. not to mention the families, employees,and friends hurt by this now have to see their pain being trivialized for a skit? feels weird.#tryguys #snl https://t.co/ywuADHZPCl
