I clicked the link and read the whole thing. I still am not sure if this is sincere or satire. It’s so out there that I kind of hope it is real, and that they find what they are looking for.
The breeding pool stuff makes me lean more towards satire
I’ve heard of bananas stories like this over on StrangeÆons channel, so it might very well be real.
You mean the Portland Polycule From Hell? That was determined to be fake unfortunately, someone was just having fun making up stories.
Aww, that’s possible. Though I feel like there’s been plenty of similar stories.
Wanted: Roommate, must fuck every other housemate
Edit: wow this is a cult lmao
How many people does a group need to become a cult? I don’t think 3 cuts it
A cult with only one member is just an unusual habit. But two? You’ve got a leader and a follower, I think that’s enough.
I would in fact think they must all start that way.
There are single family cults. You can absolutely have a cult with 3 people. It’s all about control.
Such as the Duggars.
And basically anyone in FLDS.
Check “Stolen Youth: Inside the Cult at Sarah Lawrence” - a Hulu documentary series released in 2022.
Warning: heavy shit. Like, seriously. I can take a lot, but this was a hard pill to swallow.
It’s a start
Come on, “polyrule” was right there
DAMMIT!
I should note: this is NOT me.
Found the defector
There are so many little things in that link that sends up a little red flag, but this section…. Oof.
Genetically-optimal? How in the fuck do they determine that? What happens if their spawn is not genetically-optimal? Recycling bin?
Geezus fuck people are dumb sometimes.
Hot and hot = optimal, I’d assume. I haven’t checked the website to see if they have photos of the people or anything.
Ugh it smells very american, who ever talks like that any more? Didn’t you pay attention during WW2? 😬
….. Americans don’t talk like the either… What does that even mean

Yeah 100%. As someone who is a “normal” poly person, the stuff listed in this is awful and terrible and shouldnt ever actually be considered polyamory.

Yooo!!! Lets start a cult in Seattle!
I only join cults nowadays if they offer a remote-only option. Tried it out during the pandemic, got used to it, refuse to go back. It’s so much less work.
But how do you distribute the ‘kool-aid’?
That seems a little redundant
Not even who you replied to but If you can help me relocate I am so down :P
Poly as in plastic.
Life in plastic, its fantastic.
Reminds me of the Final Fantasy house.
“We are considering having Melissa breed with Norman or Zaid, and/or Mackenzie with Douglas, as we believe these would be the genetically-optimal combinations. This would likely take place in the next 1-2 years.”
Wow, I think this just found the field of microeugenics
The dark arts have practiced by meddling mothers for centuries!
%100 cult vibes. cosmic horror lets gooooo
I’m happy with my monocule. Every couch feels like an XL couch when you’re by yourself
✊
I don’t understand this post. All I see are red flags.
That means you DO understand the post.
I’m not poly, but $1,500 is pretty cheap rent for San Francisco…
Are you sexually compatible with all genders in their cule?
FAFO now has a new meaning!
Jesus I was just thinking the opposite. I would be OK with poly if it meant saving on rent but 1500 is fucking ridiculous (and I’m thinking Canadian). Even coming from the most expensive rent in Canada, that’s way too fucking much to also be dealing with weird “breeders”.
Well if they’re walking 3:4 there’s 12 people in said polycule so total rent would be $18 840 which… doesn’t seem particularly cheap.
E: Haha ok so if they meant 3+4 then ‘3:4’ is the absolute worst way of writing that. And that’s still $11 000 a month.
House is 4 bedrooms, group is 7 people. (Three pairs share a room at least.)
There’s 7, including the applicant. They meant 3, then 4.
They mean a line of 3 and another of 4 people wide formation. They wish to be exactly 7 people
I’d need more information before I could say I wanted to be in their polycule, much less their breeding pool.
“You can’t click on this link because it is on printed paper, you will need to type it into your browser”.
That got me chuckling, because I have actually tried to do that multiple times, but only succeeded twice.
The video of Zaid on the website. He blinks a lot while pausing before saying he’s ok. That is a sign people in cults do when they are not ok.
Also, when a group make a video of a member in which they state they are ok to prove nothing is wrong, it’s a sign something is wrong.
When they state a member leaving as “defected”, it’s a sign of a cult.
When they use the word “breeding” for adding children to their group is totally not a red flag lol.
H…E….L….P…..M…E…..E……………….H….E…L…P……M….E…………
They lost me when they asked for a LinkedIn account
Never heard of QR codes? Are all members over 50 years old?
Most of them are 20s or 30s but one of them is 65.
The worst part is that one of them is a software engineer!
wait, you know the people in the polycule???
You cannot click the link. But the url is real
…bruh
I was convinced this was satire and then I clicked through the link. See for yourself and maybe apply :)
The form still feels very satire-like
They added a video lmao
That feels like a very elaborate joke from a friendgroup to me now
Probably only if your waist is below a certain size 🤢 god that link made me unreasonably fucking mad
Wait, really? I might actually qualify ♥️ BRB, filling out an application to be in an elitist discriminatory sex cult 😄
Edit: nvm, I don’t meet their tallness specifications 😥
Or above a minimum… who knows.
Very true. Either way, not a nice way to screen people imo
If serious: The breeding thing and this being SF suggests some strange subgroup from lesswrong/rationalism/TESCREAL or whatever they go by now.

It’s a cult.
I love how they don’t rule out people who can’t figure out a printed url. I certainly couldnt partner with someone who needs instructions on how to use a link.
Why wouldnt you just use a qr code?
Ominous shadow puppets in Zaid’s video. A+ to them for logistics and teamwork. I hope they find their match.
I still can’t understand if this is a joke or not. Some parts feel like a joke.
Is that a thing now? In my flat share I had to find my own girlfriends outside of my flat.
One person’s heaven is another’s hell.
This sounds like an unrelenting horror to me. Imagine all of the talking…. yap yap yap every second ‘it’s hot’ ‘i’m hungry’ GET OUT GET OUT
It’s San Francisco, one of them was bound to be
oh yeah someone here’s getting murdered for sure
Cultlike behavior
Fucking Greg
