I like the idea of of Thirdform being born a Southern Baptist

Biscetti is Southern Baptist

A few years from now I’m expecting Joel Olsteens to be usurped by a New Messiah launched from across the great river of salt called the Atlantic, just with more CEPAC Swaggart-esque grift (all monies in Bitcoin, pls) and a 24/7 Edwin consultant at hand specialising in new levels of “on-call” tailoring

You’ll remember the moment for the rest of your days. “Jfc, it’s Him! He’s a genius tabletop footballer! God damn it why haven’t I got on-call tailoring and bespoke fabric consultants?!”

Why not indeed, @sus

Jokes on you, all my friends are chaste economists.

economics, the biggest pseudoscientific scam of all of them. you're just not very good at this!

 

[thirdform]

@Clinamenic if economics is so scientific, please render the entirety of world history in logical and mathematical symbols.

My mental accuity is derived from the very things you hate about me, such as my taste for baked beans and my unrelenting refusal to wash my hands.

In Third's defense, the future is not evenly distributed.

your baked beans come with molasses and high fructose corn syrup though which, tbf, is fuckin rank and can only be accounted for by Big Bean

by surrendering to Big Bean, you surrender part of your individual agency’s legitimacy, @thirdform educate this whippersnapper on the joys of lamb

Marxist blogger I respect (perhaps a tad less now since he bothered attending their conference, “for the lulz” or not) did a pretty comprehensive write-up on them

Are you saying there are unprocessed documents just strewn about the archive!?

 

[kid charlemagne]

The TLDR is that this girl is admitting in her own overwrought way that the project is just another social media campaign riding the niche-ified online culture war wave promoting conservative/“trad” values, dunking on “soy” male baristas and women for being fat/ugly and what have you

 

[dilbert1]

For all these Dimes Square adjacent types’ allergies to cringe, they sure seem to have a hard time coming grips with how “gay” and “retarded” everything they do is
