There was a whole wave of bean posting here a week or so ago. It took over everybody’s feeds on like every instance. That specific post was the most upvoted one in the chain of bean posts

But what does it mean? I feel like, as a person who made the sacrifice to cut off reddit and try to build a community here, I have a right to know 😁

I think it was just a iM sO rAnDoM post that got a lot of traction. Doesn’t really mean anything

Well it all started back on one fateful hot summer day, the 23rd of July in the year of our lord gaben 2015. As with everything created on the internet.. it started on facebook [1]. Somehow on this 23rdth day of July, one of the facebook elders managed to make a comment on Bush's Baked Beans page. We must quote the facebook scripture here word for word though, "I;m thinking about thos Beans". That my friend was the beginning of everything. The internet as a whole was not truly alive until that moment in history. This facebook elder opened the floodgates. And so it began, bean memes, objects full of beans, and then it morphed into way too many fucking forms from that point. It had seemed to have been forgotten to the sands of time but some of the ancient prophets who remembered the old ways was forced to flee their home, the place they originally readit. And so.. the ancient prophets migrated their way here..it was a long and arduous journey but they finally made it. When they finally reached the shoreline known as lemmy they knew they needed to share the rich, thick, and fibrous history of bean. Once the ancient knowledge was released to everybody.. some people just couldn't contain themselves. So there we were, bean.. after bean.. after bean. The new age folks had enough, just like that the old internet and the new internet collided and the bean wars commenced. It appears the bean knowledge is being forced back into its cage to inevitably be released once again.
