Wikipedia [ edit ]
Rauwerda has performed live shows inspired by her social media accounts, Depths of Wikipedia .
Rauwerda became interested in Wikipedia while wikiracing in middle and high school.[6] [7] [8] While a sophomore at the University of Michigan during COVID-19 lockdowns , Rauwerda created Depths of Wikipedia , a group of social media accounts which highlight facts from Wikipedia that she considers "weird and wonderful".[9] [10] The first account was launched on Instagram in April 2020, and has since expanded to TikTok and Twitter .[6] [7] The accounts combined have millions of followers.[11]
In addition to the Depths of Wikipedia social media accounts, Rauwerda hosts Wikipedia-focused variety and comedy shows, going on tour in 2022 and 2023.[9] [12] Rauwerda's first in-person comedy set was in July 2021, expanding to a series of cross-country comedy tours.[13] Her show involves a slides presentation of Wikipedia screenshots, similar to Depths of Wikipedia's online content, and comedy commentary.[11] [13] [14] [15]

On June 7, 2023, Rauwerda started a vegan potato leek stew in a slow cooker in her apartment. Inspired by the concept of a perpetual stew , some amount of the stew was preserved after each meal and replenished with more broth and ingredients.[19] [20] [21] Rauwerda eventually expanded the "stew nights" to the public, hosting outdoor gatherings at Fermi Park in Bushwick, Brooklyn , where people contributed to and consumed the stew.[22] [23] [24] Participants were encouraged to bring vegan ingredients, with about 300 people contributing to the stew.[25] [19] [26] The stew was cooked for 60 days, ending on August 6, 2023.[20]
The events attracted considerable social media attention, in what was described as an "internet sensation " and "all the rage among Gen Zs ."[23] [26] [22] [27] Rauwerda documented the progress of the stew on TikTok, where some posts had millions of views.[26] [22] The events gained additional attention for a website documenting it that Rauwerda maintained.[19] [22]
Personal life [ edit ]
Rauwerda adopted a cat from Instagram influencer Caroline Calloway in 2021.[28] [29] As of 2023[update] , Rauwerda lives in an apartment in Brooklyn , New York .[30]
