An Introduction to the FYPocalypse: Coping

Sun, 10 May 2026 00:06:30 -0400

I wrote a term paper called ‘Brainrot and the FYPocalypse’ during my final semester at Georgia Tech. This is a fast-evolving space online, and research (let alone industry/policymaking) is still playing catch-up with social media users to understand its full depth and impact. I can’t think of many more examples of something becoming so ubiquitous and accessible with such speed before being critically analyzed or guardrailed. Asbestos? Asbestos. (jk. fun fact: Asbestos guardrails still aren’t well-implemented around the world(!), Veritasium has a great video on the topic.)
