I keep thinking I should look into this MrBeast drama, then I remember I just do not give a single fuck.

I went through a h3h3 phase when I was like 20, then realised that any YT drama is just toxic and it’s best to avoid it entirely.

I miss Tom Scott, just made quality videos with none of the BS. Nothing over the top, just interesting content from a genuine guy who cares about his audience.

haha wait till you see the generation of fuckups that growing up on youtube will produce. The Elsagate generation will be a special and wholly new kind of damaged.

You can feel free to not give a fuck but you will still have to deal with the consequences as they age into society with all the moral framework of a spiky haired n-bomb dropping shock streamer.

The older generation survived 4chan and worse. We'll be fine.

Right lmao.

Younger folk, all the content you think about being on the "darkweb?" That was just the web. 🤣

I remember a time when seeing a gif of someone getting their head blown off was basically restricted to sites like rotten.com and the more edgy forums.

Now they're used on 9gag like punctuation to a joke...

And people tell me not to take it so seriously, it's only a gif...
