Formally known as The New School of Thought founded upon the banks of The Stream of Consciousness. The Queen of Succubi Mother Lilith is known to teach daemonology here, ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK. Lifehackers learn real life wizardry in their sleep from a place such as this, some didn't live to tell the tale. To get there you must make your way uptown, walking slow, so as not to compromise your footwear upon undermaintained city streets.

They are great! Wait.... What the hell do you mean 'I'm fired'!? These institutions as shit. Unbelievably corrupt. Can't they see that I'm better than everyone?
Hym "Right!? Fuck the institutions that cast you from their ranks. The students shouldn't be paying them. They could be paying that money to YOU! That's who they should be paying. You. Not the people threw you out of your profession like a used up jizz rag. And now (and yes I know you're not supposed to start sentences with "and" because I'm technically one of the greatest writers of all time) that you have an army of deluded sycophants, you can exploit them maximally. It's not parasitical when you do it. I mean.... how else are you going to impose your universalized ethic on the world!?"
