UPDATE: "We're focused on working to resolve the issue as soon as possible, but can confirm that the issue is not related to a DDoS attack," reads an update from Facebook.

The end is nigh, friends. Facebook and Twitter is down as the people of Twitter rise up in a period of chaos, confusion, and the feeling of being totally lost. But at least we got some really cool reaction memes out of it.

The world-wide outage started to roll out this morning, affecting both social media platforms, and while we don't have an ETA for when it will come up, that didn't stop the Twitter family from jumping all over this action in the best way we know how: With GIFs, memes, and overall shenanigans:

Some have been speculating that this is some form of cyber hacking, though there is no evidence of that at this time. "We're aware that some people are currently having trouble accessing the Facebook family of apps," a Facebook spokesperson told Cnet. "We're working to resolve the issue as soon as possible."

While we wait for an update, there is still Twitter and that beautiful thing called outside. While you enjoy that, we'll just be sitting here. Panicking. Because that's how we do.
