LETS GOOOOOOOO (General hangout thread)

[Kennifer]

but I don't wanna worship a corporation!

I wanna worship Bast.

[Florien]

No you don't, you want to worship the corporation of WALMART, where dreams go to die.

Alternately you could join this totally different and marginally better religion, Florienism. There is no requirements to join, and the only ritual is a few seconds of contemplation on the subject of how it's only been 500 generations since cities were invented. You also have to say you profess a belief in the tenants of Florienism, so I can qualify for tax exempt status as a church, and list my residence as a parsonage so I don't have to pay property tax.

Also if you join, Florienism becomes the fastest growing religion, growing 100% a day every day it's existed.

[Whistle]

i am no longer atheist

i am now florienist

OH SHIT I'M FULL THIRD PLACE

[Kennifer]

what is Florienism's stance on cats?

[Florien]

We have no official stance on cats, but our current glorious tax-exempt double-pope-XTREME does think cats are the best fur-covered house-mammal.

[Whistle]

is there anything in the holy book about dusty or jupiter

[Florien]

We don't have a holy book because that's not part of qualifying for tax-exempt status. Our holy book, thus, as a purely theoretical construct, contains everything about dusty and jupiter and also everything not about them.

... well damn that is fucking weird

i mean 500 generations is like 10k years minimum but still

that's a small number

anyway i'm a florienist now ig

[Kennifer]

good news, Dusty is now a Florienist

...cats can join right?

[~okami~]

atomic kitten

[Florien]

Oh, also, because virtual gathering places count, as per televangelism, I designate the trouble cube a place of worship.

Also, yes, Dusty can join.

Also we have grown 300% every day of our existence. THE PEOPLE CAN SEE THE TRUTH! HAIL FLORIENISM!

But no seriously I think if the correct forms were filed I could in fact qualify for tax exempt status right now. Because what the fuck, tax code? "Separation of church and state" doesn't mean "Churches should receive special treatment and not pay taxes".

[Whistle]

i should probs change my profile pic sometime

[~okami~]

to what

[Whistle]

some redesigned autumn that doesn't look like an old lady

not redesigned but another drawing of her

[~okami~]

yeah go for it

[Whistle]

I will when I stop procrastinating on this video

[Whistle]

congrats bfb winner btw

[Whistle]

owo

[Cassie]

wow

[Whistle]

got the rite of spring in my head

[Whistle]

space mission concept:

KUIPER BELT ARMADA

low-budget missions to a few high-profile kuiper belt objects like Haumea (has rings), Quaoar (dwarf planet prototype), Eris (larger than Pluto) and Sedna (far-out object)

i'd think each craft would have some sort of artifact on it in case aliens and up discovering them

[Florien]

Space mission concept: Cause severe Kessler Syndrome.

Step one: LAUNCH MANY EXPLODING SATELLITES INTO ORBIT AND BLOW THEM ALL UP

Mission complete.

Cons: GPS is no longer a thing. Satellite internet isn't either. Global communications are vastly slowed. Google Maps never updates again. Weather becomes much harder to predict. Going to space will be very hard until significant effort and money is invested into space-junk capture and disposal. Trillions, if not quadrillions, of dollars in global economic and physical damage.

Pros: More shooting stars.

I think the choice is clear!

[TenOfSwords13]

Norming all! How are we today?

[Kennifer]

Dusty on my bed aw aw...
