Xenofact (he/him)
mastodon 4.7.3Interdenominational Man Of Mystery. Applied Mystic and Organizer for Weirdoes. Taoist meditation and experimentation is my jam, syncretic paganism and occultism is my religion and my laboratory. Futuristic Folk Religion over the sprawling Faith Factories.
Leader of the Church of the Unknown Question, where not having the answer is the surest sign you're on the path. Dedicated to parody and spiritual exploration at the same time.
Church of the SubGenius. Holy Order of the Sasquatch.
SubGenius Glossary 5/11/2026:
Normals - People that are just, well, normal. Almost always Humans, but no small amount are unawakened SubGenii. They’re why things suck and are the most loyal troops of The Conspiracy because it provides normalcy. Real pain to work with. Almost all Normals are Pinks and vice versa.
Whoo! I just got a message from "Mastodon Support" saying my posts have suspicious activity!
Baby, all my activity is suspicious.
SubGenius Glossary 4/21/2026:
The Memory Wars - An event caused by The Conspiracy to derail X-Day, altering the memories of everyone on Earth to stop the arrival of the Xists. The SubGenii at least partially stopped them, but we can’t remember how. Probably fragmented the timeline through sheer psychic chaos and may have allowed dangerous entities into our world like Moonshrimp. It’ll get cleared up after Omicron Epsilon, but that’s in 2178.
SubGenius Glossary 5/3/2026:
“Connie” Dobbs - The primary wife of “Bob” Dobbs. Possible descendant of alien-human hybrids. She keeps everything running when “Bob” forgets or gets lost, which is honestly a lot. Can change appearances constantly. Just as promiscuous as “Bob” but far less known. The Yang to his Yin, the two are inseparable, even when they’re sleeping with other people.
I think I'm going to start calling annoying would-be Techbro dictators "Lex Losers"
Vault of Slack #10 is out - and #11 is fast approaching. Don't fall behind and get #10 NOW! https://ko-fi.com/s/3f7d7e8c5e
SubGenius Glossary 5/2/2026:
The Prescriptures - The revelations of JHVH-1 to “Bob” Dobbs. Revealed in parts to the public because of the sheer revelatory nature and because stringing people along is profitable. First printed in The Book of the SubGenius.

The amount of hatred I see directed towards AI data centers feels like a unifying force among Americans.
Sometimes you start where you are and where you are is pissed off.
SubGenius Glossary 4/22/2026:
Slack - Something for nothing. Free time where stuff still gets done. The great motivation that is also laziness. Slack is the quest of all SubGenii and any living thing with any sense whatsoever. Slack is the only reason to keep going, and you know if you’ve lost it - but might not always know if you have it. A potential manifestation of Yacatizma, helps Time Control.
SubGenius Glossary 4/13/2026:
The Deal - “Bob” Dobb’s deal with JVHV-1 and the Xists (or maybe it’s two separate contracts?) to lead the Church of the SubGenius, rally the SubGenii, and take over Earth. We’re sure everyone involved is going to honor it, and no matter what, “Bob” Dobbs always gets his cut!
This. Entirely this.
I got to live in a state like that. Literally set themselves behind 30 years on public transport.
A flat state. Like cmon. Build a train.
Living with the Trump administration is:
* 45% existential terror.
* 45% the same experience we get watching a know-it-all completely fuck their shit up.
* 10% dark humor.

SubGenius Glossary 4/23/2026:
Money - The ultimate abstraction. A spiritual gift. The lube in the orgy of commerce. Part of Economics, Politics, and Religion. Used by The Conspiracy to control Pinks and Normals. SubGenii both love money for what it can do and don’t buy into The Conspiracy’s head trips that make us both desire and hate it. You should also send lots of it to “Bob” Dobbs so he can keep it out of the hands of evildoers at www.SubGenius.com..
SubGenius Glossary 4/18/2026:
Yetisyn - Yeti-human hybrids, identified by the famous Stanisław Szukalski who got it both very right and very wrong (enough his writings made “Bob” faint!). The result of ever-unstoppable Yeti horniness back in Atlantis. The source of SubGenii and the source of our many powers. Also at least we don’t work for the Xists but the planet kind of sucks.
SubGenius Glossary 5/13/2026:
Emaculation - When JHVH-1 contacted “Bob” Dobbs with the divine Prescriptures. “Bob” was able to access this divine revelation after a supposed “accident” tinkering on a TV of his own design. Though it took time to get going, this ultimately resulted in The Church of the SubGenius. To this day some SubGenii shock themselves on television sets ritually, though some are probably just perverts.
Today's Nameless Ritual: Just messing around and doing everything from chores and art. Plus playing some Vampire Crawlers. Got Falafel for dinner.

Today's Nameless Ritual: Trying a new Indian spot (which was great), getting cookies, and watching videos. Then doing some art!

I speculate on the possibility of an American Catholic Church splintering off. I examine why some people gravitate to the Church, and what it means for a possible split.

You know too many furries AND political geeks when someone mentions "Silver" you don't know if they mean the hedgehog or the statistics weirdo who had a breakdown.
SubGenius Glossary 4/29/2026:
SubGenius Nuclear Family - The only healthy way to live - extending family as far as you can go to the ultimate Fully Extended SubGenius Nuclear Family. Included the mailman, mom’s girlfriend, and other SubGenius Nuclear Families. Tribalism the right way, it’s tribes all the way up and down. The opposite of the Pink Nuclear Family.
Why do we have a sense of commonality with people on different spiritual paths? Maybe it's the journey. https://www.xenofact.com/2026/04/18/for-we-are-one-on-the-journey/
SubGenius Glossary 4/14/2026:
Nuclear Family - A loaded term. Might mean the pathologically paranoid Pink Nuclear Family or the noble SubGenius Nuclear Family. Also may mean a family that’s radioactive or powered by Nuclear energy. Honestly a term people probably should have thought through.
This is so true. We must preserve these precious devices so we can shock ourselves to talk to JHVH-1.
Or at least prank call the old bastard.

"Members on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee are divided over whether President Donald Trump should pardon Jeffrey Epstein’s convicted co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell in exchange for her cooperation in the panel’s Epstein investigation, Chair James Comer said in an interview Wednesday."

SubGenius Glossary 4/19/2026:
Atlantis - The home of the Yeti given to them by the Xists. Fell after the Yeti cross-bred with Humans. Most Pinks who claim to remember Atlantis are just reading psychic impressions left over from other gullible marks. The real one was destroyed, and no known remains are apparent since this writing, so get over it. Also it may be on Mars, thanks to the Earth-Mars Switch, which makes this complicated.
