I'd never heard of this person before, except last night at a party someone mentioned them. No one else had heard of him. I'm okay not knowing who online people are.
he is bankrolled by thiel, to offer up a new manosphere grifter. (Tate, J peterson, roegan) isnt enough.
Wouldn't be surprised at the least, but do you have a source for this?
I pray this reaches you so I’m not the only old person burdened with this knowledge. I’m sorry, it’s the only way to rid myself of the curse.
Clavicular is an online “looks maxer” who preaches that the only thing that matters in life is your physical appearance, which should be improved at all cost. He suggests methods such as “bone smashing”, methamphetamine, and plastic surgery to achieve a facial structure that is as close as possible to some arbitrary ratios that they consider to be ideal. He is extremely famous with the youth, some of whom have followed in his footsteps to disastrous effect.
He also ran a man over with a car, pulled a gun on someone who came to his door, and injected erection medication into his dick with Adam22 (as bro’s do).
Now you know. I’m sorry. Pass it on to someone else as quick as you can, or else Clavicular will start chasing you! /s
If you say clavicular three times in a bathroom mirror, he'll appear and chase you with a hammer to even our your cheek bones
This is the internet equivalent of showing someone a haunted VHS tape.
SEVEN DAYS!
Okay, wow, thanks for the summary. How the hell do these folks get popular in the first place?
for clav, he suddenly started blanketing social media no thanks tho Peter thiel, who seems to pushing him as the new "gen-z manosphere dude", thiel likely is also into him too(his last BF was defenestrated in 24)
Yeah, this will be a generational divide I have no problem crossing. If someone names a person to me and they have only one name and it sounds stupid, I'll just assume they're an online personality and that I don't care who they are.
And one step further, it's just staggering to me that these people who are YouTube/tiktok/Instagram famous are considered by younger generations in the same way a millennial like myself would consider actors, people who actually did stuff, versus people who got popular doing shitty pranks or stealing other "content creators'" works and slapping a watermark on it.
Millennials had our share of people that were famous just for being famous. Paris Hilton anyone? We've always had influencers, people famous for no particular accomplishments or creative works. I actually prefer the modern version. The past versions were mostly folks from very wealthy backgrounds who came into the limelight due to family connections. If you're already around a bunch of celebrities and media types because your family is incredibly wealthy, it's easy for someone to translate that access into fame of their own.
In contrast, at least modern influencers have a decent shot at being from humble backgrounds. They're still vapid and famous just for being famous, but at least they had to hustle to earn any amount of fame in the first place.
To be fair to Paris Hilton, she has managed to close down a company through litigation, whose business is to instill "tough love" on delinquent children in a boot camp but only caused trauma. I wasn't quite expecting that from her.
It is a generational divide to not consider streaming as "doing stuff," but that's a divide I'm ok crossing.
Yeah the hate is weird. I'm not the biggest stream watcher, but I can respect the medium. Streamers are just doing the modern version of what AM talk radio personalities like Rush Limbaugh did. Not in terms of content or politics, but in terms of format. Limbaugh ran multi-hour long shows reacting to news and headlines. His listeners primarily listened passively, letting the radio run in the background of daily life. He would take calls and engage with his audience directly. Streaming is just modern talk radio.
Was that supposed to entertain the idea that I should regard streamers with the same respect I would Rush Limbaugh?
If so, mission accomplished.
Lol very rarely did he do this. His show (which I unfortunately had to listen to a lot because of various right-wing bosses I worked for) was 99% just him talking and talking and talking. Taking calls led to the very slight possibility of his having to argue against people who disagreed with him, something he was terrible at. On his TV show, in fact, he once famously had the entire audience cleared out because a small number of people had shown up to heckle him.
A single caller turned me away from Rush and got me started thinking about the content I was consuming.
Dude calls in to say he looked into getting a wind turbine and the math didn't work out. When he brought up the cost to hook it to the grid, Limbaugh was laughing his ass off.
"Wait! Wait! It requires POWER to run! HAR HAR HAR!"
The man tried to explain that the connection would pay him when he generated more than he used. Limbaugh was an intelligent man, he knew where the conversation was going and kept cutting off the man's explanation.
Despite the caller's math as to why wind wouldn't work for him, Limbaugh wouldn't allow the man to make one positive point. That turned me off so hard I started seeking other viewpoints. 15-years later and I'm into Fully Automated Luxury Communism.

That's hilarious
To a certain extent, a lot of streamers do a lot more stuff than actors.
Actors book a job, so some acting, maybe do a promo tour for their movie, that's it.
Most "influencers" or streamers at least start out doing everything themselves. They need to understand the streaming tech, know how to configure OBS studio, how to edit video, understand the camera, the lighting, if they're using make up they're doing it themselves, they need to know how to do their own marketing, etc. And, if they're live-streaming they need to develop the skill of interacting with their audience while they're doing something else. Without that parasocial relationship with the audience, they don't get big, so they need to stay on top of what their chat is saying. Sometimes that's on top of doing something else like playing a demanding video game.
So, I think streamers / influencers are often doing a more impressive job than actors. For many streamers / influencers I'm much less interested in them. I often have less respect for the way they make money, since it's so vapid and consumerist. On the other hand, I do admit that it can be a lot of work to master all those domains.
And the consistency required, especially for steaming.
Disappear for a month and lose 30% of your audience, it's brutal
Yeah... if you can doge the looks-maxing thing entirely, you're way better off. In the end it's just warped young people doing weird things so a computer algorithm will give them money.
