Day 8 of growing a Gen Z Social Commentary YouTube Channel all naturally.

Things are going great, one video just hit 1,000 views! First 5 videos are looking nice, I'm going to grow it to at least 100 subscribers before showing it off.

I do this so YouTube has an easier time finding my ideal audience, once that happens videos will likely do even better.

1 sub -> 2 -> 3 -> 6 -> 9 -> 12 ->20

Have seen great progress day to day, if you wanna talk directly with me about content creation peep out my free skool community!

Nobody else in commentary calls out the parasocial dynamic FROM THE CREATOR'S SIDE while being honest about profiting from it. That's the unspoken rule, creators pretend it doesn't exist.

My son is 6. He wants to be like me. One day I want him to see a photo of me standing in front of that burned housing unit at 19 and then a photo of me in front of my own house at 29. That's the only motivational poster I care about.

89% of Class of 2026 believe AI will replace them before they start. 51% think their degree was a waste. Half my generation went into debt for degrees that AI is eating.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

I quit a job to make videos about how broken everything is. The math doesn't work but here we are.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

Half my generation has a mental health diagnosis. The other half can't afford one. Both groups are hurting. The difference is one has a label and the other has a shift at 7 AM.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

45% of Gen Z say they're not ready for relationships. We set impossible bars, feel lonely, crave connection, decide we're not ready. Then repeat. It's a loop, not a roadblock.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

The simulation is glitching. Small weird things keep not adding up.

@hateoryxxx Few more years we'll have the resources the link up anytime📈

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

Everyone talks about parasocial relationships like it's a viewer problem. I'm on the other side of it. People feel close to me and I can't call a single one of them when something actually goes wrong.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

Canadian Gen Z has $9-16 in disposable income per month after essentials. We average $94K in debt. 55% fake financial stability. The system works great, if you're not in it.

Small towns aren't quaint. They're just places where you run out of options and then run out of reasons to stay.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

People romanticise leaving their hometown. Nobody talks about the ones who left, couldn't afford it, and came back with that look on their face when you run into them at the grocery store.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

Men with 6+ close friends: 55% in 1990. 27% now. 15% of men report zero close friends. How many contacts on your phone would you actually call at 2 AM?

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

Being a dad at 18 broke me. Then it rebuilt me into something I wasn't planning to be. Still figuring out if that's fair.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

To make $20 on YouTube I need 1,000 hours of watch time. Now imagine what the people making real money are willing to do for your attention.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

The "readiness paradox" says Gen Z won't date because they don't feel ready. I had a kid at 18. Nobody asked if I was ready. Turns out readiness is a luxury you only get when the stakes aren't real yet.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

Most small towns have nothing for people under 35. No third places. Nowhere to exist. So we exist online. That's not a choice, it's what's left.

[Cool Kid Croc @coolkidcroc]

Snapchat ruined dating for an entire generation and we're all just pretending we didn't notice.

Ran a mortgage calculator last month. Closed the tab. Opened The Richest Man in Babylon. Sometimes you need a guy from 1926 to remind you the math used to work.
