dinergoth
The dominant youth archetype of 2020s suburban and provincial America. The dinergoth sits at the mainstream convergence of once-niche culture: alt fashion, geek fandoms, and downward mobility.
Formed online via Discord, TikTok, and YouTube, dinergoths mix formerly subcultural aesthetics like goth, emo, piercings, and dyed hair into mass-retail fashion. They openly display interests once seen as nerdy or deviant: anime, queerness, cosplay, furry culture, BDSM. Neurodivergent diagnoses are worn as identity markers.
Unlike earlier subcultures, dinergoths aren't rebellious or ironic. Hentai and stagnation are just facts of life. Cultural touchstones include Deltarune, Hazbin Hotel, Genshin Impact, VTubers, streamers, and drawing "OCs". They practice queerness as default, learned through fandom rather than via theory.
Dinergoths are suburban or rural, often working in service, warehouse, or anonymous office jobs. More Buffalo than Brooklyn. They prioritize comfort, creative hobbies, and online community over career status. Content creation is often seen as an exit out of a disenchanted world.
Dinergoth traits now permeate Gen Z mass culture, but the archetype is clearest in the pierced, anime-addled, downwardly mobile alt-prole who thrives in the stagnation and placelessness of the American hinterlands.

grebo
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
TikTok Farlands
TikTok Farlands is a term to refer to videos that you see after scrolling for a long time. These videos can potentially be disturbing, or weird. Said videos can also have low likes, or low comments.
