What Would The Rebel Kid Do? A Modern Girl’s Guide to Surviving the Internet

If you’ve ever doom-scrolled at 2 a.m., deleted a post five minutes after uploading, or mentally drafted a comeback to a hater – congratulations, you’ve survived another day on the Internet.

But while most of us are still figuring out how to “just not care,” one creator seems to have cracked the code: Apoorva Mukhija, a.k.a. The Rebel Kid.

From her unapologetically chaotic reels to her hot takes on everything from dating to dopamine detoxing, Apoorva has become a voice for Gen Z who are tired of pretending everything’s perfect online. Her humour is self-aware, her tone is brutally honest, and her energy screams: I said what I said.

So, in true Rebel Kid style – here’s a modern guide to surviving the Internet, inspired by her.

Post First, Panic Later

We’ve all been there, posting, overthinking, deleting, and reposting with a different caption. Apoorva’s approach? Hit upload and walk away.

She’s made a brand out of being unfiltered, whether she’s ranting about unrealistic beauty standards or laughing at her own mess. The point isn’t perfection, it’s participation.

The Internet rewards authenticity now more than ever. So, stop editing your personality out of your posts. Imperfect is the new aesthetic.

Your Haters Are Just Fans in Denial

Apoorva has had her fair share of online trolling – but instead of shrinking, she got louder, funnier, and more confident.

In her world, hate comments are content ideas in disguise. A little sarcasm, a dash of wit, and boom – the algorithm’s on your side.

Here’s the lesson: validation is nice, but visibility is power. If they’re talking, you’re already winning.

Be the Main Character (Even When Life’s a Mess)

The Rebel Kid doesn’t wait for the right moment to show up – she turns every meltdown into a monologue.

That’s the charm of her content: it’s unpolished but deeply relatable. Whether she’s talking about therapy, burnout, or heartbreak, she brings humour to the heavy stuff.

The takeaway? Main character energy isn’t about being flawless, it’s about owning your story, cringe and all.

Take Breaks Before You Break Down

While Apoorva’s feed is full of high-energy moments, she’s also been vocal about creator fatigue and mental health.

Her andour about stepping back, logging off, or simply doing nothing reminds followers that “digital detox” isn’t just a buzzword, it’s survival.

So, if your screen time hits double digits, maybe log off and touch some grass. The Internet will still be here when you’re back.

Turn Pressure Into Play

Between brand deals, engagement rates, and trending sounds, being a creator today can feel like a full-time performance. But Apoorva turns that pressure into creativity.

Her content doesn’t chase trends, it bends them. By being the joke and the punchline, she’s built a space where laughter and honesty coexist.

That’s the Rebel formula: don’t fight the chaos, remix it.

You Don’t Have to Be Everything Everywhere

From Instagram to YouTube to her upcoming show Spice It Up on Jio Hotstar, Apoorva is expanding, but at her own pace.

Instead of stretching herself thin, she’s curating spaces that feel aligned. It’s a reminder that consistency doesn’t mean constant posting, it means showing up when it feels right.

Boundaries are hot. Burnout isn’t.

Laugh First, Learn Later

If there’s one thing The Rebel Kid teaches through her chaos, it’s that humour heals. The Internet will always have opinions, but the only narrative that matters is the one you write (and meme) yourself.

So, the next time life goes offline or your post flops – ask yourself: What would The Rebel Kid do?
She’d probably make a reel about it. And it’d go viral.

The Bottom Line

In a world obsessed with aesthetics, Apoorva’s raw, rebellious honesty feels like a breath of fresh, slightly chaotic air.

She’s proof that surviving the Internet isn’t about being perfect – it’s about being real, and laughing while you figure it out.

So, post that rant, wear the outfit, share the story. You’re allowed to be messy, funny, and still magnetic – because being “too much” online is exactly what makes you unforgettable.
