The Homeless Era was the longest running Era in the Daniel Larson saga, with temporary breaks when Daniel rents motels or is put into state-subsidized housing. The Homeless Era began after Daniel ran away from his caretaker, Jonas, around the end of 2021[lower-alpha 1], ending the First Housing Arc. This event marked the end of the Classic Era, and the start of the Homeless Era.
Daniel received housing with the Shields Foundation in August 2022, but was evicted following altercation with his care providers on October 16th, 2022. Daniel was also temporarily institutionalized during the Jail Arc from the 3rd of February up to the 1st of March, 2024. Despite these two breaks from homelessness, Daniel was intermittently homeless throughout the era.
On April 30, 2024, Daniel was arrested by the FBI on seven charges and is in custody, thereby ending the Homeless Era after almost two and a half years.
Prelude and First Housing Arc
The events preceding the Homeless Era were outlined by the First Housing Arc, where Daniel lived with a host named Jonas and a housemate named Gavin. The household was in a constant state of chaos,[1] so much so, that Daniel believed that he was "poisoned" with mustard in his macaroni and cheese. Daniel fought with Jonas and Gavin constantly. Around the beginning of 2022, Daniel ran away from Jonas' house, ending the Classic Era and First Housing Arc, while starting the Homeless Era. The departure may have also been influenced by trolls or managers. This "manager" informed him that Grace VanderWaal was in Colorado Springs, and that Daniel had 24 hours to get there from Denver if he wanted to be with her. While the day in which Daniel left housing is unknown, much of the community agrees on it being December 13th 2021.
First Homeless Arc
Despite running away from housing, Daniel had been able to (albeit, barely) survive being homeless, though it has had severe consequences for his health. He has done so through various, oftentimes illegal means, such as dine and dashing and causing scenes in public areas, which in some cases has resulted in him getting arrested. Since he is constantly on his phone (such as when he ran an entire marathon, phone in hand), Daniel will regularly loiter for hours to charge his phone at restaurants or other public areas. On occasion, Daniel will resort to trespassing if he cannot find a receptacle in a public place, causing points of contention with the staff after he is found in them. At one point, he even tried to charge his phone on someone else's porch. Being without a home does not provide ample opportunity for bathing. When Daniel is given the opportunity to clean himself he often refuses it. Daniel has been in a visibly dirty state for months on end.
Ox and Briiink
Daniel was approached by Briiink, which was the name of a TikTok account run by two teenage boys who were fans of him. Briiink took Daniel out for meals, bathing, and a haircut, which made him look presentable in public again. Daniel was then introduced to Twitch, a popular streaming service, by Ox, a discord user. Through Twitch he was able to receive donations which he used to get hotels or Airbnbs.
Broken phone
On July 26, 2022, Daniel broke his phone by throwing it during heated argument with his 'mentor.' Daniel never said who this mentor was, but usually when Daniel references his mentor, it is Bob (or a Bob impersonator). Daniel could have also been speaking about Brink. While Daniel was explaining the situation, he accidentally dropped his new $300 tablet that he was 'forced' to buy, breaking it.
DDRC visit
On July 27, 2022, Daniel visited the Developmental Disabilities Resource Center (DDRC) in an attempt to obtain housing and explain his court situation.
Second Housing Arc
(See Second Housing Arc)
On August 31, 2022, Daniel was placed into a home, starting the Second Housing Arc. Within a couple of days after moving in, he had already caused considerable damage to the house. Daniel was evicted on October 16, 2022, and received a $1,000 citation due to the property damage. "Miss P" told police that she was in fear for her life because of Daniel, "...and his popularity." The eviction includes a notable meltdown.
Return to Homeless
Transported to Colorado Springs
On October 19, Daniel spent some time with his 'new friends' at Dave & Buster's. The next day, on October 20, after spending the night in a hotel, they brought Daniel up to Colorado Springs. Here is is alleged that they realized Daniel was too much trouble and abandoned him at a Walgreens. Daniel felt forced to walk back to Denver; he made it to Monument, Colorado before being picked up by fans. That night, Daniel refused to go to a homeless shelter because he thought he was too famous.
Preparing for the Cold
Daniel spends most of his time in Denver, Colorado, which has average lows of 23 degrees Fahrenheit during the winter.[2] Daniel has never been homeless during the winter, causing some to question his ability to survive in these conditions. Daniel has already been forced to spend a night in an elevator with other homeless men.
Homeless Elevator
On October 25, 2022, Daniel uploaded a video in which he is sharing an elevator with three other presumably homeless men. Lighters are visible in the video, indicating that there may have been drug use, although this is merely speculation.
An unknown fan tracked down the location to 39°45'23.5"N 105°00'06.9"W, matching the metal grating seen in the video with the stairs going up to the pedestrian bridge located there.
December 10th Incident
(See December 10th Incident)
Travel Arc
(See Travel Arc)
The Travel Arc began immediately after the December 10th Incident, when Bob bought Daniel a plane ticket to Los Angeles, California. The arc spanned Daniel's travels across several states by plane and bus, including: California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and New York. Bob eventually purchased a plane ticket for Daniel to return to Denver, ending the Travel Arc and returning to the ambiguity of the Homeless Era.
Return to Denver
After the Travel Arc, Daniel returned to Denver from New York, where he has been since.
Sleeping on mountains and use of storage unit
On December 30 2023 Daniel was livestreaming on TikTok when he had a conversation with a fan. Daniel revealed that he had slept on top of a mountain and that he has a storage unit where he keeps some of things, including a sleeping bag.

The Jail Arc
Following Daniel's arrest on the 3rd of February, he was placed in jail between Arapahoe and Boulder County. This started the Jail Arc. He had spent a month within the jail system until the 1st of March 2024 when he was released on 12 months of probation. Following his release, he had become homeless again.
March 19th Arrest
Daniel was arrested on March 19, 2024 and placed into the Jefferson County Jail, spending three days there until his release on the 22nd. Following that, he became homeless again.
April 6th Meltdown
(See April 6th Meltdown)
Second Jail Arc
Daniel was arrested on April 30, 2024 by the FBI and placed into the Jefferson County Detention Facility, being transferred the next day to a holding cell. [3] Given the situation, Daniel is likely to be in prison for an extended period of time. This marked the official end of the Homeless Era, and is to be the longest arc within the Daniel Larson universe.
