Gyroelongated pentagonal cupolarotunda

In geometry, the gyroelongated pentagonal cupolarotunda is one of the Johnson solids (J47). As the name suggests, it can be constructed by gyroelongating a pentagonal cupolarotunda (J32 or J33) by inserting a decagonal antiprism between its two halves.*

The Pentaverate

The Pentaverate is a fictional secret society mentioned in the 1993 movie "So I Married an Axe Murderer." However, in 2022, a Canadian comedy streaming television miniseries titled "The Pentaverate" was created by Mike Myers for Netflix. This series draws inspiration from conspiracy theories presented in his 1993 film. In the movie, the Pentaverate is depicted as a group of five influential individuals who clandestinely manipulate global events. It's crucial to emphasize that the concept of the Pentaverate is entirely a product of fiction crafted for comedic purposes in the film. It has no basis in any actual secret society or historical reality.

"In the movie 'So I Married an Axe Murderer,' the Pentaverate is portrayed as a shadowy organization with immense power, while in the 2022 comedy miniseries 'The Pentaverate,' the concept takes a humorous twist as it parodies conspiracy theories."

Dark Pentad

And it's a pentad, Jordan. A pentad. 1 because it's thematic. You know? Pentad -> Pentagram. Pentagram -> Evil.

Hym "And what is the 5th triat of the dark pentad? By now you ought to know what I'm going to say. The trait from which all dark traits are derived SOLIPSISM!!! You are LESS REAL to whatever extent. Why pathological parasitism? Because your existence is LESS NECESSARY and if I have to take from you to sustain myself then I am justified in doing so. Why Machiavellian manipulation? Because my will is superordinate to yours and if lie to circumvent your I am justified in doing do. Why Sadism? Well, from a neurochemistry perspective I would posit that it's a sympathetic nervous system response (like yawning) in the absence of empathy. Right? So, whereas someone with a higher level of empathy would seen someone suffering they might generate like an internal model of that suffering, cry, and release endorphins (or whatever the corresponding chemical is) but IN THE ABSENCE OF EMPATHY... You just get the endorphin release. But BEYOND THAT... Your suffering is LESS REAL! It all stems from placing the primacy of your subjectivity above all others. The amalgamation of these traits is Jungs Shadow. And your religion, Jordan, is NOT you NOT doing that. It's an extentsion of that."

"Hey, listen to this new song I wrote, "Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.Bring me a beer, hey!'"

"Yeah, that's crap. Nice use of crap-pambic pentameter tho."
