gollark: ... why does it have "NEVER SETTLE" in the corner?
gollark: Exactly! I've made you just treat this all as a convoluted joke and *ignore my alts*!
gollark: But they *do*, a bit, and by making it seem like a joke I discredit the very idea.
gollark: You may wonder "but why reveal he's your alt? You're pointlessly introducing suspicion".
gollark: > ah yes, I still need to finish my infographic explaining why<@!309787486278909952> Baidicoot is, in fact, my alt. My really obvious alts are just a *cover*, so you won't suspect that I can have less obvious alts.
