He uploaded his first video on August 11, 2020. It was a response to the animated storytime channel Real Life Talk for tracing one of his drawings for their video "I Am Allergic To The Mask! Worse Than COVID.....". The original work was their designing Facebook as a human.https://www.instagram.com/p/CBaxni3Ffpl/ The video has almost 2,000,000 views as of 2021, and the channel since re-uploaded the video with a shorter title and a different color palette for the girl.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXW4w7wnUrw
His most popular video, originally titled "A hate group harassed me so I harassed them back lol", was uploaded on May 4, 2021. In it, he exposes an anti-Asian hate group named "Anarchy (ig version)" (mockingly known as "The Applebee's" and other names, out of respect for actual anarchists) who embarrassingly failed at bullying him on Instagram and also failed to make him join their Telegram group. The video fell into the YouTube algorithm, and has almost 4,000,000 views as of June 2021. The video also grew his subscriber count by over 200,000.
In one of his recent videos he starts referring to his fans as "axolots" (which is currently used by all his fans).
He is also denoted as "the queen" among his viewers.
