Lucas' Bedroom
This entry contains content that may be considered sensitive to some viewers.
About
Lucas' Bedroom is a series of photoshopped images based off a picture that surfaced when it was revealed that popular Twitter user @SpaceGiko, aka Lucas, had been engaging in emotionally and sexually manipulative behavior with underage people in order to enter a relationship with them, also known as "grooming," on Skype.
This was particularly shocking to his followers who considered Lucas wholesome and near universally liked him.
Origin
On November 6th, 2017, Twitter user @wristcri[1] tweeted a link to an Imgur album[2] featuring screenshots of Twitter user @SpaceGiko clearly engaging in grooming a minor named "Sarah" through emotionally manipulative and Skype messages.
On November 14th, they tweeted[3] a second Imgur link of emotionally manipulative behavior, this time featuring pictures of @SpaceGiko with his shirt off. One of the images (shown below) would go on to be photoshopped in various humorous ways.
Spread
User @wristcri[4] posted further evidence of Lucas' grooming practices, including extremely vulgar Tumblr messages which featured hentai screenshots he sent to an unspecified user. They also showed pictures of old @SpaceGiko tweets which in light of the grooming revelation appeared suspicious.[5][6]
Meanwhile, Twitter users joked about the picture of Lucas with his shirt off with photoshops. For example, on December 24th, a thread by user @carltonAutism had replies which featured the picture photoshopped with Ajit Pai's face and the picture photoshopped into a headline from the news website Slate (shown below).
Many of the jokes about the picture were centered around Lucas' nipples. For example, on February 23rd, 2018, Twitter user Gyarupan tweeted a parody poster for a film about the controversy called "Boss Nipple" (shown below, left). Another edit used the Alone on a Friday Night? template to make fun of Lucas' nipples (shown below, right). Jokes about the picture have continued to spread through November of 2018.[7]
On November 5th, 2018, the Based God himself posted an edit of Fate character Kirei Kotomine in Lucas' room with the caption "Going to Lil B concert no matter what / thank you BasedGod"
