A polycule is a group of individuals involved in romantic relationships that connect all the members in the group. It is neither necessary nor common for every individual of the polycule to be in a relationship with every other individual.

For a working example of this in action, watch Star Trek: Deep Space 9 /s

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 14 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Hey now, the polycule is really only Miles, Keiko, Julian, Garak, Kira, Odo, Quark, Jadzia, and Worf.

There are so many characters that aren't part of it, like Sisko and... uh... Nog?

[–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 8 points 8 hours ago

Sisko is the father and head of the polycule

Megacule

Fantastic

Portland-Seattle Megacule

We're number one!

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 5 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I thought it was called "The Sprawl" now?

[–] cruseo@piefed.world 3 points 5 hours ago

Perhaps better β€œThe Spread”

[–] Bustedknuckles@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

The megacule is also a kitchen-table polycule. We're all romantically related to each other directly. It's only a matter of time before the PNW is declared one domicile and then we'll all be common-law spouses

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

Washington doesn't have common-law marriage, better start drafting that initiative.

This sounds oddly like a Neal Stephenson book

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Probably not too far off from what the Drummers were. Only hopefully minus the whole self-immolation by orgy thing. Watch the fuck out for that one. (Readers of the Diamond Age know that I am indeed not making that up.)

Are we all part of Nvidia now? Because they've sure been fucking us

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Wasnt FTX the first company to organize that way?

[–] b3nsn0w@lemmy.world 7 points 7 hours ago

true, it's polycule ∈ clusterfuck

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 5 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

You do recall that their C-suite all lived in the same house for a time... Then everything exploded.

It's rough when your polycule/criminal conspiracy's submissive turns informant, because when they turn they get way into it πŸ˜”
