Just like any other social media site, you can find anything on Twitter. Recipes, safety tips, comedy, personal stories, and of course, ignorant and facepalm-worthy tweets. That’s right, for every politician and social justice warrior on Twitter, there’s someone else divulging information that they probably should have kept to themselves or that might make you lose a bit of faith in humanity. (Sometimes, politicians even fall into that category too!)

And the perfect place to find the very worst of Twitter is Braindead Bird App. This Twitter account gathers the most chaotic, cringey and confusing tweets, that we can only hope were shared facetiously, and gives them an even larger platform. Keep reading to find a conversation we were lucky enough to have with the creator of Braindead Bird App himself, and be sure to upvote all of the posts that make you want to abandon social media forever.

Let us know in the comments if you’ve ever seen anything equally unhinged on Twitter, and then, if you’re looking for yet another Bored Panda article highlighting just how wild Twitter users can be, you can find more chaotic tweets right here!

The trouble with Twitter and a lot of social media is that Americans think everyone is American. I've had bother myself when talking about something and someone said they have 'literally never seen it so you must be lying,' not able to accept not everyone lives in the US.

To learn more about Braindead Bird App, Bored Panda reached out to the page’s creator on Twitter, and he was kind enough to have a chat with us. We wanted to know what inspired the account in the first place, and apparently, it has humble beginnings. “Pretty much, I was just really bored on a family holiday and was scrolling through Twitter,” he told Bored Panda. “Thought it would be funny to just compile the worst of the app into one place.”

And he’s been quite successful at that ever since, as the page was launched in July 2021 and has amassed over 560k followers since then. The page has tweeted over 3,400 times and has been beautifully chronicling the worst corners of Twitter for over a year and a half now.

We also wanted to know what the creator of Braindead Bird App actually thinks of Twitter. “I used to hate it with a passion, but I’d be a hypocrite saying that now because I’m on it so much,” he admitted with a laugh. “It can definitely have some nice moments, but the fact that anyone can use it means there are always going to be some nutcases.”

When it comes to the "nutcases" he features on his page, however, I was curious if many of them are joking when they tweet, or if they really believe what they’re saying. “Most of the tweets are people being serious, but I like to post satire I find funny sometimes,” the creator told Bored Panda. “Just as a more light-hearted thing for people to laugh at, rather than the usual doom and gloom.”

As a female who is adopted, I really do not understand the apparent obsession that some women have with having a “biological child”. Especially the ones that will state they love children and “want children”. So adopt or foster! But it seems like many of them don’t even try, and just act outraged and angry that they can’t physically have kids, whenever any other woman dares to bring up abortion, etc. I know it’s a mindset I don’t understand, as I was adopted and I don’t see why a woman wouldn’t adopt if she couldn’t have kids but WANTED them so badly.

I wasn't adopted and was raised by my bio parents, but I don't understand it either. If I wanted a child, i would totally adopt. I don't see a point of bringing a new person into this world when there are already thousands of kids who need family and home.

I can't have children of my own but I'm still pro choice. I will never stand behind anything that punishes women for being raped, or puts their health/life in jeopardy. I think it is horrific that a 10 year old girl is raped, becomes pregnant from it and then would be forced to give birth to her rapist's offspring while being a small child herself. This is what makes me sick! Edit for typo

IDK why does one have to wear a name plate? Or a crucifix? Or their birthstone? Why do people have to wear BLM shirts? Or campaign merch? Why do people advertise their sports team affiliation on their clothing? To...maybe show support for something that's important to them?

Snails can. Some of the most disturbing sexual practices. The have boy and girl parts and can get themselves pregnant but prefer to get another snail pregnant without getting caught themselves. The sex fight to accomplish this includes trying to spear each other with little calcium sticks, and trying to bite of the other snails penis.

That's how custom jewelry works. Maybe i should start walking around with a T-shirt advertising the fact I want a Vasectomy. They're kind of expensive.

Both of these were a bit silly and tacky. But if something triggers you, move on and wish the other person the best. Particularly when they didn't intend to offend you.

Jesus, I get it you don't like the other person's stance but for f***s sake have some decency. Every sorry mfer out is preaching empathy until they find someone that has a different opinion. Let me guess though, this is the same crowd I thinks Dave Chappelle went too far.

I know a lot of people are laughing and saying burned, this is awful. Sure she can adopt but that's not what she wants, and what she wants to do with her body. Also that is definently not something I would want to walk around on my ears with but.. to each their own.

Isn't it crazy how those who support abortion had moms who didn't abort them? Only difference between abortion and murder is how long the person has existed. Soon they'll be telling us that if you live too long you're not worth keeping alive, either. Oh, wait - the left is already telling us that.... *cough* *cough* assisted suicide *cough* *cough*

For some abortion has become similar to being a sacrifice for their cult. Getting earrings like this would certainly indicate that they view abortion like a rite of passage & not how the normal world views it from a pro-life or pro-choice view.

gross, you again, Ralph??? feelin i'm feeling nauseated again... NO ONE BELIEVES THAT HAVING AN ABORTION IS A "RITE OF PASSAGE" and the fact that you're even suggesting that shows the lack of grasp you have on reality and understanding of women.

I'm not from the USA, so I may well be wrong, but this isn't something the President can do by themselves. It would require the Legislative branch of government to act on it as well. Without those two arms of government working together the gun problem will remain. Therefore, it is a very reasonable question to ask.

Finally, we asked the account’s creator what he thinks Twitter should be used for. “Twitter should be used to open people’s minds, rather than shut down people's beliefs,” he shared. “At least my posts give a reason to debate in the replies, so people are learning more about their own beliefs and others.”

If you haven’t already, be sure to give Braindead Bird App a follow on Twitter right here!

If you’re not super familiar with Twitter, let me inform you that the website is famous for chaos. Donald Trump used to use his account to attack “haters”, until he was eventually banned, and there’s a long list of people who have been de-platformed for spreading misinformation, inciting violence and committing other offenses the site. In recent months, however, the bird site has been even more controversial than usual, as it has recently been acquired by Elon Musk, who aims to implement many changes. For example, previously, having a blue “verified” check on your Twitter account meant that you were a celebrity or public figure who had been vetted by the service to prove you weren’t an imposter. The significance of a blue check has recently gone flying out the window, though, as users can now purchase a verified badge for $7.99 a month.

Many celebrities have also decided to jump ship and delete their Twitter accounts, bidding adieu to their followers due to recent developments on the platform. Indy100 reported that Stephen Fry, Whoopi Goldberg, Gigi Hadid, Jameela Jamil, Toni Braxton, Shonda Rhimes, Sara Bareilles, Tea Leoni, Brian Koppelman, Erk Larsen, Mick Foley and Alex Winter have already announced their departures from the site, but the list is expected to grow in the coming months. Elon Musk also quickly lost control of his platform after initially tweeting that “comedy is now legal”, and soon following that up by introducing new rules about parody accounts, when he realized that he was being impersonated ruthlessly.

Many also wonder if Twitter will become even more unhinged, and perhaps even dangerous, as Elon Musk has threatened to restore accounts from users who had previously been banned. “New Twitter policy is freedom of speech, not freedom of reach,” Musk said in a tweet in November 2022. “Negative/hate tweets will be max deboosted & demonetized, so no ads or other revenue to Twitter.” While that might sound all well and good in theory, the power to ban accounts exists for a reason. The last thing we need is a platform where people can freely spew racist, homophobic, sexist, xenophobic, or transphobic rhetoric.

According to Snopes the picture is staged with prop tools and a boy that young couldn't afford an expensive pipe. But he could be a breaker boy. "For 10 hours a day, six days a week, breaker boys would sit on wooden seats, perched over the chutes and conveyor belts, picking slate and other impurities out of the coal. Breaker boys working on top of chutes or conveyor belts would stop the coal by pushing their boots into the stream of fuel flowing beneath them, briefly pick out the impurities, and then let the coal pass on to the next breaker boy for further processing. Others would divert coal into a horizontal chute at which they sat, then pick the coal clean before allowing the fuel to flow into "clean" coal bins."

Over the past couple of months, there has actually been talk about Twitter potentially shutting down, due to losing so many employees and possibly being unable to keep its most important services running. And while the end of the bird app does not actually appear to be coming any time soon, the panic in November 2022 inspired some users to become even more chaotic than usual and begin confessing their secrets and “shooting their last shots” on the site. “I feel bad about doing this, but Twitter is probably going down soon and this is the last chance to get this circulated,” tweeted Amber Brown, a  28-year-old streaming producer from Los Angeles. “Help fix my liver!” She added with a link to her GoFundMe page, where she is asking for help to pay her medical bills.

“If Twitter implodes this is your last chance to tell me you’re in love with me so shoot your shot,” Phoebe Kimball tweeted, alongside photos of herself, in November. And Jennifer Crawford, a 49-year-old architect in Sydney, Australia, shared that before Twitter “implodes” entirely, she wanted to confess something she did when she was a university student. “I once took a cask of peach cooler to a uni party and left it under the table,” she wrote, referring to the nonalcoholic fruit cocktail. “I was 18. Give me a break.” The fear of losing Twitter seems to have brought users together, but it also may have encouraged them to become even more chaotic.
