I just watched a couple of videos on YouTube and realized those are the videos my 7 yo autistic grandson has been watching. I just thought it was because he's a sensory seeker and that he enjoyed the fast pace and bright colors. 😭

I saw a youtube video about that a couple of months ago, but it was mainly about how it's effecting gen alpha. It is definately gross... and frightening.

Thank you for your service! This is the sort of thing I’m happy to leave up to others to research and then give me the Cliffs Notes on.

Feels like flu symptoms or ..orrrrr my soul is being sucked out of my body. I’m going to the park for a run. Take a break Jess. 🫂

Every day seems like this anymore. I’m gonna turn off the news and go play a video game to relax.

White parents all over America are side eyeing their sons today.

I went to Trader Joe’s, bought wine and everything for a nice cheese, fruit, charcuterie board, a bottle of wine, and am now watching Blade with my husband and teens. Sometimes a big fat dose of escapism and something yummy are in order!

If you don't know what a groyper is you've still got further to go man

Can relate!

that's what the 4chan universe does to people

Me too. I prefer to move about the world informed and then when I inform myself I sometimes wish I didn’t know what I know. Too many sleepless nights. Enjoy some Jackson Browne.

My solution was to buy a flag that has a peace sign on it and hang it on my porch when it comes. I just have to move in positive direction.

Didn't it used to be nice that before the internet, the library would run out of material? Now we get from YouTube to 4chan... what could go wrong?

Ewwww!

Perhaps you feel as I do in understanding precisely why ignorance is indeed bliss.

Omg…this

Get yourself a high-quality bike helmet. It helps when pounding your head against the wall.

Sorry, could you explain your comment. Omg...this What is this?

You're so right. Everything feels sick, like monumentally nasty and cruel.

same

Damn, Jess. I'm sorry for your mind. Here.

Time to touch some grass. Or smoke some

😂

Me too. I am trying to confirm stuff. It's really irking me right now how the media is spinning that Tyler was mad at Kirk for recent remarks, implying Kirk's general position. Supposedly his mother said that it was the Epstein files remark by Kirk that set Tyler off. He didn't want Kirk to say that

Where did you read about what the mother said?

also found this: "Robinson had become more political in recent years, family members said, and he had recently allegedly criticized Kirk in a conversation."

Someone who saw on mother's FB page before she deleted it was posting about it. It's hearsay basically. Lots more has come to light since this morn. Tyler's affiliation with Groypers & also Laura Loomer's bashing of Kirk (her post on July 13). Groypers are a vicious group - they were mad at Kirk.

Same. Ugh

So are we liberals going to wait long for apologies from trump, loomer, and maga politicians? Yeah, they won't.

Agree! 😳

In a hundred years, people will be all like "What? People voluntarily subjected themselves to that? Really?!"

Take time to breathe, cleanse your mind and heart, and get your balance back, my friend.

I'm having a sudden craving for carrots

Also unnecessary. One murder apologist, put a target on the other murder apologist's back. Because one side murders. bsky.app/profile/kara...

Dark chocolate makes things better 😊

It’s really horrifying that our FBI, governors, Congress, media, police, sheriffs, pastors, judges, parents, lawyers….do not know much about the online subculture kids and young adults are possibly involved in. Gaming, 4chan, 8chan, Pepe symbols, Groypers we all need to know what these mean.

Take care of yourself 💙🫂... I couldn't even go through YouTube... Luckily, I don't have FB or Twitter

We need you, Jess. Keep on chasing that rabbit. We know where the Red Queen resides - only this one is Tangerine-Toned. #Trumpocalypse #ShowMeState

GamerGate is pretty much the cornerstone of the underbelly of the internet and everything that came after that is just a series of larger and larger dominos.

Do I want to know what that is?

No

Thank you

Takes a lot of intestinal fortitude

Omg- I should have never responded to someone on IG- she doesn’t believe the shooter is right wing. 😳

Proficient in brain rot? Slap that shit on your résumé!

hoodline.com/2025/09/miss... Not as bad as this. Remember this is quote unquote material harmful to minors so that can include lgbtqia content. Physical health and access to resources to help fight depression

Best they could do after being caught off guard but have they ever considered the call came from inside the house? The last time Trump polled this low 2 people were shot in Butler, PA.

Here, have a mental reset with my favorite TikTok of all time www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8ShB1to/

We need logic/reasoning classes in public schools. Predictably, to those who don't use those tools, it would be "indoctrination".

Yes, me too. The underbelly of alt-right belief systems is disturbing. The different levels and ideals is quite staggering. Often times counter each other.

But always support guns and violence.

And don’t forget women are property with no free will.

*chan is inexplicable on its best days

Hoping you find some downtime for self-care.

I've had the same day! Groyper group, the Nickers, beef between Fluentes and Kirk, the whole origins story, and now I have a better understanding as to why there's the lonely men epidemic.

Same. I’m going for a long walk.

Daily walks are now non-negotiable 👍

Sorry. Jackson says take a break.

As does Lilly.

Oh it's been a crazy 48 hours.

Its not a rabbit hole. Its more like a gopher hole you step in and sprain your ankle… they just will not stop this crap

Please look out for your mental health. The Right in this country just witnessed first hand, with Kirk, what too much time in that sphere of influence can do to a person.

That and eating my feelings.

On that note…time for me to find a mindless movie or show to watch to cleanse my mental palette.

I can recommend any Esther Williams production.

Wait til you see EriKa Kirk’s video on Fox News… now she’s a rabbit hole!

Brain rot tends to have that effect on me as well.

Same

Well some of it is gross. Some is fairly innocent and just ridiculously stupid. I have younger kids. Brain rot is constant here but not the kind that groypers use. I watch my kids VERY CLOSELY online.

Turns out there are a whole lotta different levels of crazy in the MAGAverse… 🤷🏼‍♂️

Same. For me, the whole groyper world and Helldiver2 game terminology did not help my already lost faith for the future. After watching series Adolescence, went down similar rabbit hole with incel world which is intertwined with groypers. Talk about brain rot world. 😞

middle age plus right wingers radicalized (regressivized?) by Fox & Newsmax & podcasts (most of which I couldn't name). Young right wingers regressivized by who knows what this is. And incel has changed meanings from men who want sex & can't get it, to men who are against sex in principle?

That's the rabbit whole I've been down. It's so insane, and young people are so vulnerable to their propaganda.

Very

You just described what I couldn't figure out what I felt like

uWu, what’s this???

As a listener of Art Bell, back in the day, nothing surprises me anymore

It sure is 🤮

Perfect way to put it. It's all so gross.

What a week.

I’ve done so much reading about which right-wing group believes in which f*ucked-up ideology, I’m exhausted, hungry and probably need another shower. Background: I confused Kirk with Fuentes, so I wasn’t sure why he was on a college campus instead of his mom’s basement. Please enjoy your weekend. 😊

My nine year old son has warned me about brain rot. Even he knows to stay away from it.

Mine use fairly innocent brain rot but they aren't allowed online willy nilly and got most of it from classmates who say it. I've looked up the words and anything I feel is not okay, I stop them from saying.

Please remember..the Russian Bots are working this Kirk/ Gun stuff..they're all out in full force..they have studied how to turn people against each other it is impossible to know who you're talking to on ALL Social Media Platforms..

Same here. There are so many rabbit holes and some of them are bottomless.🥴
