Tim tears into a New York Times article about a 20-person polyamorous 'polycule,' mocking the invented terminology, the boundary-setting jargon, and the absurdity of covering this while the world is on the brink of war.
- The word 'polycule' is a synthesis of polyamory and molecule, coined to describe what Tim calls a sex cult.
- Tim argues families aren't supposed to have sex with each other, and networks aren't either—20 people in a relationship is just a cult.
- He questions why the New York Times runs weekly articles about people's group sex arrangements and boundary-setting discussions.
- One polycule member claims abundance of love to give to all participants, which Tim dismisses as completely untrue.
- With seven wars ongoing and potential nuclear conflict, Tim can't fathom why the Times publishes detailed reporting on whose body parts go where in orgies.
- The Times provides investigative journalism on the rules and boundary-setting protocols of the polycule arrangement.
- Tim argues these people aren't interesting and that group sex arrangements have existed forever under different names without needing new terminology.
- These are the most boring people ever, needing the polycule concept to feel interesting and wild in their own minds.
- One woman's nesting partner owns the home because he inherited money from his great aunt, while she'll put her ass in anyone's face.
- The Times publishes articles about polycules weekly, explaining how people handle jealousy, which Tim notes is a real and serious problem in these arrangements.
