The taoism crew are like what if the previous polycule was more toxic. You got a doggirl (perfect and wonderful but way too loud), a literal zombie (shockingly normal for that), the world's worst woman (oh my god she's SO awful), an absolute huge idiot, and their transgender leader. And when i say leader i mean it, they keep scheming to do random weird shit. Sort of group who decides to have someone run for office.
Taoism crew closest to seattle shrike crew.
They're in a constant war with the temple group because the temple group is like "people should join our polycule because we're nice and loving" and the taoist crew is like "people will join our polycule once they HEAR about our GENIUS IDEAS for LEFTIST LEADERSHIP". they'd both be a lot more effective if they could stop fighting.
