imagine the kind of discourse that would go down on the Foundation intranet though. even better, imagine regular discourse finding its way in. imagine several O5s throwing down in the Overseer group chat about Pennywise the fucking clown

Senior staff trying to understand the difference between sex and gender because it actually matters to containing this shit.

“So that’s why a statistically non-insignificant number of male researchers also die a little when they see Clef!”

“so that’s why there’s that one “female” researcher who gets on pretty well with Clef and doesn’t seem to get what the big deal is!”

Several staff, many of whom were only reading the intranet thread as a formality and have never even met Clef, coming to Important Realizations about themselves

Heartfelt self-care threads, grizzled old agents very confused and mildly critical of yet inexplicably drawn to said self-care threads, low-level researchers who have only ever worked at very boring sites confused by the urgency of said self-care threads

Obscure intra-Foundation memes
