Daniel Larson, also known as Danderson, is a Denver, Colorado-based TikToker, YouTuber and internet personality known for his controversial and confusing lore. He is referred to by many as a Lolcow or AIOPM due to a network of trolls that manipulate him by posing as record label managers on Discord and Reddit, exploiting his obsession with singer Grace VanderWaal and his desire to become a recording artist. This relationship has drawn comparisons to precursor lolcow Chris Chan. Additionally, Laron's said to be diagnosed with Autism and schizophrenia. He started posting content to TikTok in 2020. Many viewed it as cryptic and mentally ill, prompting users to follow out of curiosity. Going into 2021, he grew his cult following for various "arcs" in his channel's history including running for President of the United States, "the fog" and an incident in which he flashed his viewers on LIVE. Soon after, Larson became the victim of his fans, continuing into 2023. Multiple allegations surfaced about Larson involving pedophilia in 2022. However, many of the allegations are unconfirmed and imagined (by some) to be the doing of his trolls. In 2023, Larson collaborated with fellow TikTok lolcow Joshua Block (aka World of T-shirts) at the behest of his fans. Notable Larson "incidents" include his 2023 arrests such as the so-called Olive Garden Incident. In early February 2024, Larson was notably arrested by Aurora Police in Colorado.
