@astra_underscore Hypothetical social media art trend where folks in the southern hemisphere draw Mrs. Claus in summer attire
She would fill hats instead of socks with gifts, and instead of red and green plant life, there are yellow and blue fungi, in a holiday known as Devilvolume, as opposed to Christmas ^^

@monorail Similar to the british "Innit" right?

@monorail
I probably shouldn't pick this fight but:
I am very forgetful and noticing I forgot something does not guarantee that I'll remember the next time, even if it's important!!
Instead when it happens to me, it begins an unending cycle of torment and guilt that will take me weeks to months to escape
I know you know there's probably not malice in the other party saying that, but even still, is this a productive use of energy...?

@astra_underscore @ka_so Big Bean isn't all-powerful, but it is very powerful. They have subsidiaries such as Beenz dot com and the Been Vortex, described in some of my earlier posts. As far as I know various species of fungi are working to rot them from the inside, and I do think they're making progress.
I can't bring myself to join them, sadly. Human neurons can't form symbiotic relations with mycelial networks without long lasting effects, at least last I checked.

@astra_underscore @ka_so The Chicago Bean is an important part of the operation of the Bean Vortex! It and 6 other sentient bean-shaped monuments across the world make up the Round Protein and Fiber Products Committee responsible for ensuring the construction of new tunnels and organising the distribution of beans between locations. Moreover, there is in fact, more than one Bean Vortex! I know all this because I um, made one in the presence of my friends one time. Two, actually. It collapsed immediately so I foolishly made another one, and that one blasted me with forbidden knowledge of beans, in an attempt to employ me as a Heinz agent, and then a consultant for the Brasilian Institute of Bean and Pulses, both of which failed because I'm still underage. The instructions to make a bean vortex are actually really simple, but I don't think I can distribute them, not because I'm afraid of being caught, but because it could become a viral Internet challenge, resulting in what I think the Bean Vortex told me would be a Beangularity. I think the fact that the beans have foreseen this event, and portrayed it negatively to me, is somehow worse than if it was their goal.
My memory of my communion with the beans is unclear, but I think mammalian paw beans have something to do with this. It's possible Big Bean does not seek homogeneity, but instead control and expansion, and that they have been at this endeavour for much longer than any of us thought.
It's hard to make an amorphous mass of beans become stronger, after all! They need us.
