some startup names in the large spreadsheet of investment data I was manually finding duplicates in

\n

\u2013 Rentlord: this sounds like a slur socialists made up

\n

\u2013 Researchgate: sounds like the hashtag for internet discourse about the replication crisis

\n

\u2013 Epistema: caught my attention because it\u2019s a gorgeous name! they do something not obviously cool with data analytics.

\n

\u2013 read a row with the startup name\u00a0\u2018storefront\u2019 right above a row with the startup name\u00a0\u2018stormpulse\u2019 and vaguely registering\u00a0\u2018hey, isn\u2019t that a white supremacist website thing?\u2019 for a second

Rentlord, it\u2019s like Uber but for feudal aristocrats

\n
\n

For all those handmaidens who haven\u2019t found their feudal lord yet

\n

it\u2019s like Tinder, but swiping the wrong way signs you up to a lifetime of vassal servitude

\u201cRentlord\u201d. You know what that reminds me,

A bit before going full moon mom cult, monetizeyourcat was clearly taking the term \u201chouse-proud\u201d out for a trial run

in a Pope/Chief Inquisitor relationship with maggotmaster, who was rumored to be the original source for the word \u201cshitlord\u201d

(guess who made a big pretentious show of backstabbing when the tides turned)

So the take-away is

A) I\u2019ve been on tumblr too long

B) so long that

C) things that would count as communist trans cult memes at the start have been processed as today\u2019s avant-garde capitalism
