Online History

Prior to October 7th, 2023, webcomic artist Fallenchungus (@fallenchungus) posted'^[1][2] a two-panel cartoon in which one character gets shocked when the other one tells him he's going to sexually assault him, with the second character then continuing, "ever heard of DARK HUMOR buddy." The post (shown below) was originally posted on Fallenchungus' unknown alternative account and was later reposted^[3][4] on their main account.

On November 6th, 2023, Fallenchungus posted the earliest cartoon on their main account which received over 870 reposts and 6,700 likes on X^[5] in five months (shown below, left). Later that day, the artist posted their Look Man He Helped Me Through a Very Tough Time cartoon that gained over 2,300 reposts and 19,000 likes on X^[6] in five months and spawned a meme format (shown below, right).

The artist posted multiple comics that saw viral spread in the following months. Notably, on March 28th, 2024, Fallenchungus posted their Bro Visited His Friend (also known as Friendpilled Visitmaxxer) cartoon that gained over 13,000 reposts and 129,000 likes on X^[7] in one month and spawned a meme format (original shown below, left; edit shown below, right).

In early November 2023, Fallenchungus wrote^[8] that they create their cartoons in MS Paint. On April 17th, 2024, Fallenchungus wrote^[9] that they intentionally make their characters "ugly as fuck" in order to offset the way characters are drawn in other "twitter farm" comics.

Chaser Allegations / Alleged Suicide Attempt

In October 2023, some X users began accusing Fallenchungus of being a "chaser," meaning someone who fetishizes transgender people. A compilation image purportedly showing Fallenchungus being a chaser began to spread (shown below, left). On January 22nd, 2024, Fallenchungus made a post to X^[31] addressing the allegations, writing, "this image surfaced like last year after a weird period where a lot of my close trans friends were going thru shit so I tried to be an ally and failed miserably, that's quite literally the end of it. This image was also compiled by a group of transphobic trolls so yeah" (shown below, right).

On April 7th, Fallenchungus had an exchange with @LennoxRoseReal on X^[32] in the comments of a now-deleted, unarchived post in which LennoxRoseReal seemingly perpetuated the chaser rumors further and shared the compilation image, although the exact contents of the deleted post are currently unclear (shown below).

On May 26th, Fallenchungus had an exchange with @LennoxRoseReal on X^[32] under another now-deleted post about drama resulting from the chaser rumors, with @LennoxRoseReal (shown below). In one comment, Lennox claims they're worried that a friend, "dart," might get harassed over something Fallenchungus posted.

That day, user @hightiergoddess responded to a post by @LennoxRoseReal with a screenshot of a DM reading, "the petty side of me wants to leak his address on some site that would get him harassed to all hell but I need like two PCs and three VPNs to for my plan to work (shown below, left).^[15] Purportedly, this DM was written in reference to Fallenchungus.

That same day, X^[16] user @hightiergoddess elaborated on the message in a series of comments under the post, claiming that Fallenchungus convinced her girlfriend to attempt suicide (shown below, right).

Some X users demanded proof to back up @hightiergoddess and @LennoxRoseReal's claims that @Dark_suuun, aka Rikki_alt, attempted suicide because of Fallenchungus. @Hightiergoddess provided several screenshots to X^[19] of messages from X user @rikki_priv claiming that they took a whole bottle of pills, suggesting this is the user that Fallenchungus allegedly pushed to a suicide attempt (shown below). Some X^[20][21] users were skeptical of the posts and claimed they were not good proof.

Later that day on May 26th, X^[17] user @LennoxRoseReal, aka Gelzazz on Discord, posted a screenshot of a DM between themselves and Fallenchungus, aka datsmojo on Discord, as a response to a now-deleted (and unarchived) Fallenchungus post, writing, "youre not sorry at all. you didnt even mention that rikki was attempting sui and gave a vague tweet and blocked me after telling you what not to do." The DM shows datsmojo defending himself against the allegations (shown below, left).

A few hours later, @Fallenchungus made a post to X^[18] sharing a screenshot of the X exchange with @hightiergoddess and @LennoxRoseReal, writing, "whatever im going nuclear same people who preach morality above all want me doxxed and dead for speaking my mind about people's hate boners for me i want these people gone," garnering over 2,400 likes in two days (shown below, left).

Around 40 minutes later, @LennoxRoseReal made a now-deleted post to X,^[22] the exact contents of which are unknown, that purportedly wished death on Fallenchungus. The user later deleted the post and commented, "i said that cuz i had thought someone fully committed suicide cuz of him and i immediately deleted it after they were okay, none of my other tweets were about him u are genuinely a fucking weirdo."

Fallenchungus quote-reposted the X^[23] post later that night, writing, "nothing that you say or do has been in the best interest of anyone. You are a walking, talking point of contention that thrives off of people's misery. You literally wished death upon me over something that wasn't going to happen.You are a miserable, miserable person (shown below).

Additionally, X^[24] user @Baller_gaming1 commented on the post with a now-deleted post from X user @Dark_suuun, the purported alternate account of X user @Rikki_alt, claiming that they took a bottle of pills to attempt suicide because Fallenchungus posted an image to X that included their handle, which resulted in harassment towards them. Fallenchungus responded to the X^[25] comment that night, writing, "this is a boldface fucking lie. And the fact this fucking trogolodyte is trying to put the blame on me for that is sickening" (shown below).

Later that night, Fallenchungus made a post on X^[26] in response to a now-deleted post by @LennoxRoseReal, writing, "im done trying to be nice, walk away, do whatever. There is quite literally over 20 separate occasions of you or your friends spreading false accusations about me and making my days worse."

About seven minutes later, Fallenchungus posted on X,^[27] "alright I give up. anything I was trying to build, it's over. I dont care about the money, the partnership, or even the fans anymore. There's no meds left in the house, my parents hid them, but I'll find another way to do it, I always do" (shown below).

Around 10 minutes later, Fallenchungus posted a video to X^[28] consisting of a black screen. In the video, he claims that he deleted his Discord server and that he is going to attempt to end his own life in the following days and urging people not to reach out to him (shown below).

Exit From Mental Hospital / Possible Retirement Announcement

Later that same day, FallenChungus made another post to X^[34] claiming the chances he'll come back are "not 0%," writing, "although it'll be way, way later when I feel like I've matured enough to withstand the toxicity that comes with platform management." The post gained over 5,800 likes in around an hour (shown below).

New FallenChungus Admin / LiquidChungus

In late October 2024, FallenChungus made a series of now-deleted posts on his main account and his alternate account @datssmojo, claiming that he is selling his account to a new admin. X^[35] user @M1das_OW2 reposted the tweet on October 30th, 2024, gathering over 20,000 likes in five days.

On October 31st, the artist used his alternate account @datssmojo to post about a scammer taking "advantage" of his mental health issues, and urged his followers to mass report @fallenchungus. The now-deleted tweet was reposted by @reddedtvhed.^[36]

On November 1st, @M1das_OW2^[37] shared a screenshot of FallenChungus using Discord to talk about being scammed and asking his followers to mass report his X account.

Also on November 1st, the artist used his alternate account @datssmojo to post about how he returned the money to the buyer in hopes that he would deactivate, but instead got locked out of his account permanently. The now-deleted tweet was reposted by @Blannis_art.^[36]

On November 1st, @FallenChungus,^[38] now seemingly under new administration, posted a webcomic showing a character taking off a mask identical to his smirking face. The post was captioned, "Who’s the goat of 𝕏?" and gathered over 6,000 likes in three days.

After the new admin posted a Cabbit meme on November 3rd, X^[39] user @ChiefofIsaac commented on how well-received the account takeover as been, writing, "dude genuinely how mad do you think the original owner is just seeing his whole Internet personality he built for like years just to be easily replaced in every shape or form 😭" The post gathered over 16,000 likes in a day.

Some internet users^[40] began to refer to the new admin as "LiquidChungus," seemingly in reference to Liquid Chris, a Chris Chan impersonator. Other internet users^[41] preferred "KenjakuChungus," a reference to a power Jujutsu Kaisen character.
