What They've Done

Look into your mind.

Way.

Transform it.

There they are.

Grow.

The Sign on the Wall Says

Tele: Roughly, distant.

Vision: Roughly, seeing.

Visionary: Roughly, seer.

The.

Television: Distant seeing.

Televisionary: Distant seer.

Being Churched

Life. Change. One. The same. Always. Forever. Today, tomorrow, yesterday. Life in its purest form is transformation, evolution, change. If you change, you live. That is all that is required.

And

Line up! Line up and take a token

You don't.

You're already part of them. You will never be part of them. You have always been part of them. Remember the secret handshake you had in your kindergarten three-person club that never did anything? The secret handshake that wasn't very secret at all?

Is.

That's not the secret handshake here, either.

They are the ultimate secret society. Like the [Illuminati], but they [don't] [actually] [run] [anything].

Perhaps they run everything.

But that's in doubt. They don't really centralise much.

Or that's what they want you to think.

Two-Fifths

And Six of One

You are right. You are wrong.

I am right. I am wrong.

They are right. They are wrong.

That.

We are all right. We are all wrong.

Televisionaries enjoy jokes about themselves. They appreciate the irony. Televisionaries are very, very serious people, don't you know. As a matter of fact, they are completely humourless people that would never tease themselves in a million million Wheels. Unless the joke was really good. Or really bad. Or somewhat mediocre. Or the phase of the moon in Strange was right. Sometimes on a Tuesday. Usually on a Sunday. Whenever the sky's clear, or cloudy. Partly cloudy on most occasions except that once.

Yes, horribly silly people that take their humour with a dread seriousness.

We dreamed you up, you know. We dreamed you up the same day you dreamed us up. You didn't know that? For shame.

Change.

They love you. They hate you. They don't care about you. Except when they do care. Which is all the time last we checked, but things are prone to change, are they not?

They're subversive little pests. You don't notice them.

Because they're completely in-your-face about it. Nobody expects the man in the bermuda shorts and tacky glasses. Unmemorable only through memorability.

Ninja cymbals.

Illegal Coherency Alert

Another way to grok it. Puzzlebox is a highly rarified subjective environment. Absolutes corrupt absolutely. Absolute beliefs in absolute truth corrupt one's worldview and in turn through the subjective manifold the world itself. Constrasting sets of absolutes cause danger of a relativistic existential crisis, damaging subjectivity.

Thousands of conflicting rights make not a wrong, but deconstructive interference patterns that negate contrary positions haphazardly. If one believes something to be Truth(TM), it likely will be someone else's unTruth.

{If this confused you...excellent.}

We are the limiting valve. You're all wrong. When you can't do what's right, gotta take what's left.

The preceding was utterly false.

Valves

Atlargements

It's All Marketing, Bay-bee

Think Discordian.

Think Illuminati.

Think Weird Al: ""Evvvvverything you know is wrong, black is white up is down and short is long, and everything you thought was just so important doesn't matter..."

Think completely friendly and loveable.

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them think.

Alter this page as you see fitting. It's a living bean, after all.

Of course, the true Televisionaries have already been here and have made their alterations. What did they change? One may never know...

Or one may already know. You were paying attention, weren't you?

Triple Ultra Secret Unknown Members Who May-Not-Be-Named
Kalki, rightful Original Founder in his own head. Where his own head is Puzzlebox {xer}self. "It is said there is nothing new under the sun, but which sun is one looking under?"

Zoe emits the sound of apples striking stone, wriggling around a horsey-head. Knowing unknowing looks. Somewhere ELSE, in the Pool of Omniescience, a gathering of critters nod and play at tea, forefingers perhaps touching the pool and grinning at these goings on. Perhaps.

GrayZero of course cannot possibly a member to begin with. Faith is of course absolutist and so cannot be made subjective. Naturally.
But do not name her anyways.
