There was one I used to enjoy whose whole schtick was doing skits mocking onspiracy types. Then came Trump, and now if I go try to watch his stuff he’s either the dumbest kind of MAGA or he’s wearing the mask well enough it’s hard to tell if he means it or he’s satirizing it or if he just wants money and MAGA is a more valuable audience to advertise at.
Back in the day I would watch the Hodge twins, they had a channel on gym culture and another where they would joke around about obscure current events.
Last I saw them they had gone full tilt maga and mainly discussed politics, yeaaa no. I’m out.
Elliot Hulse was another similar surprise. From weightlifting and mentoring kids to “Trump is your daddy.”
Totally watched Elliot Hulse back in the day as well, I never quite understood how working out and self improvement became an entry point for MAGA and right wing authoritarian, but it did.
Technology connections remains awesome thankfully. Hell him touching on politics made me respect him more as he did it sparingly because he felt an obligation to use his platform to speak up
He tapped perfectly into that zeitgeist where the world is falling apart but we are still making entertainment, having kids, doing laundry. So many others refuse to acknowledge the oligarchical elephant in the room (looking at you, Legal Eagle) and I get that’s how they make their living so can’t go off the deep end but the tone deaf-ness of NOT acknowledging is so frustrating.
Thanks, Alec, for helping me feel like I’m not losing my mind in a world that is pretending we’re not hurtling headlong toward the worst parts of the 19th century.
I’m just glad that Gronkh and Coldmirror are still great.
Poor Terry Davis :(
Who???
You.
Is this a real article?!?
'tf!?
"I wonder what F1nn5ter is doing theze days. Wait, who is this chick?
In November 2025, F1NN5TER revealed he was involved in establishing non-profit private trans healthcare provider Anne Healthcare in the United Kingdom, having provided early financial support during the organisation’s founding in 2024. Anne Healthcare confirmed in a statement published alongside F1NN5TER’s announcement video that his contribution had secured the organisation’s first prescriber, stating that the clinic “would not have happened without the money F1NN5TER contributed.”
Huh. Another dollar for the “sex workers at the front of the fight for civil rights” jar, I guess.
Some porn actress now I think?
She posted that her “j*b is getting plowed” yesterday, so yeah seems correct.
Works in reverse with Joji:
“I haven’t checked what Joji did before this music”
“oh”Don’t you dare insult Filthy Frank. 🤣

Idk Kyle from WhiteLightning is now trans and the channel is now DoorMonster and they mostly make vlogs about stuff they care about instead of skits now
My longest subscribed channel, Nerd3, has somehow remained almost the exact same channel for over a decade. I don’t know how he does it.
Probably the same way SteveMRE1983 does - finding a niche and having no need to “spice it up for modern audiences”.
He unintentionally stumbled in to an algorithmic gold mine though legitimate passion for an obscure and oft overlocked type of thing.
Unboxing video + international food + millitary stuff. Like, it’s the perfect algorithm bait, and he just… was unironically interested in the history, functionality, and development of military rations.
You forgot the most important demo
People that want to watch him throw up
Game Sack!
That shit has been solid for over a decade
@WhyIHateTheInternet Joe’s the best.
Nice!
Because he leaned heavily into Patreon to fund his channel, and now makes content that he wants instead of content to feed the algorithm. Been following him for over a decade and was more than happy to throw him a dollar
Same for his friend Ashens. Which reminds me, their Xmas Advent calendar collabs are my favorite part of the holidays now.
the only way to tell when an ashens video is from is camera quality and couch condition
Not true, ashens went bald.
Or did he just stop being in denial?
My God I forgot about him he’s fantastic!
Game Grumps has basically stayed the same too. The only problem is they juggle so many projects like they have the energy of 20 year olds, but they don’t so they always seem tired now.
I need to watch his ETS2 road trip again. It’s one of my favorite videos on the platform. I’ve got a copy of about the same version he played installed, I should drive along with him next time
Haven’t watched him in years and I immediately heard ‘hello Internet’ in my head reading that
I don’t really watch youtubers, but when I was going through rough times, Hololive’s Gura was my favorite streamer, I wonder how she’s doing now.
Edit: Oh.
Gawr Gura is now Sameko Saba, but also she just stopped Youtube memberships a few days ago because she hasn’t been able to stream for months. Said it was due to a chronic sickness and that a longer explainer tweet is coming :-(
Oh, cool. That means there could be at least a library/archive of videos I haven’t seen yet.
Now it’s your turn to be her favorite streamer ;_;
Spent about 20 minutes listening to Jerma describe some bizarre snack with bread, hummus, and olives recently. Sometimes youtubers just end up being wonderfully normal people
Bread, hummus and olives sounds like the most normal snack ever tbf
He’ll intricately describe how to make a tahini crustini and then wonders why his stomach is always fucked up
Mmmm yes no fiber please! Make my digestive tract into a concrete mixing plant!
That honestly sounds delicious though…
Jerma is actually an scp who breached containment
If you start a YouTube channel where you find decent sized rocks outside you can sand them down into a smooth dick shape and sell them to hippies as all natural hand crafted dildos for like 1450 bucks a piece.
Don’t tell this to Primitive Technology

Did I hear a Cock and Bone?
They’re called “lingams” tyvm
NEVER look up what any of those Minecraft youtubers are up to today.
Most of the ones I watched I watched because they did mod spotlights for mods I was trying to wrap my head around. The only one I particularly liked was Mischief of Mice, I think they remain relatively wholesome?
I’m guessing we watched different Minecraft youtubers then, because the ones I watch are still cool and wholesome.
They either turn out to be really wholesome people, or absolute pieces of shit with little in between.
Or dead :-(
RIP Technoblade
Pretty sure I saw that Captain Sparkles is still doing MC. Same with Direwolf20? DW was the main one I watched. And some Syndicate before that, but he stopped after having a kid IIRC
Edit: Turns out they’re both still active, seems Syndicate has shifted to more vlogs?
This but in reverse with The Amazing Atheist: last i checked he’d come out as bi, hates that he spawned a lot of shitty stuff, and seems generally fine though a bit abrasive.
I swear tg if Moist Critikal ever does something cancel-worthy, I’m leaving the internet for good.
Don’t worship people? ╮(︶▽︶)╭
Dude if moist goes to shit it means that things have REALLY gone wrong.
He’s the sorta dude that’s almost painfully positive and wholesome. To a worrying degree.
Boo, don’t let it get to you if it turns out otherwise.
You’re real and valid for being concerned. But don’t let it define yah.
🎨
But that’s a big part of my kink
More lust for u bae😏, just don’t let it get you down when your idols fuck your images.
we are all not as perfect as mua😘
Not worshipping. Just observing he’s one of few content creators that hasn’t seemed to let the fame get to his head. He’s like, the last case study for someone becoming famous through YouTube that isn’t a scammer, pedophile or racist.
Sorry hun after ElsaGate, that should’ve been the wakeup call Google’s YouTube was the home of the conartists, scammers, grifter, pedophiles, groomers, racists, nazis, and brownshirts.
Have you ever asked yourself why Charles Christopher White Jr. remains living in one of the most Nazis states of the
? You would think, giving his networth, he wouldn’t be living near the Gulf of oilspills. The whistle about Australian esports completely missed your radar, huh.What brand of schizoposting are you doing?
So that’s why you never worshipped me q_q
My situation is crazy
What has he been up to lately? I dropped off after the weed game series ended
Lots of stuff. Still commenting on drama a lot like Pokemon Card Scalpers. He still does the Official Podcast but dropped all other podcasts on that channel.
He’s been going out of his way to shit on Trump a lot and even called out Netanyahu and Israel for being both genocidal monsters and interfering with US politics, on multiple occasions. Currently he has 4-5 videos going over the Trump phone scam and calling out the Trump family for it. He and Coffeezilla were the ones who reported the big Trump Phone data breach. The hacker who discovered it went to them after Trump’s scam company ignored him.
So, so far he’s in a pretty good spot.
That’s awesome to hear. Glad that it sounds like he’s been doing good work lately. Thanks!
