I’m Captain Jenks of the Horse Marines
I feed my horse on corn and beans
If someone could also explain why half the post titles have the word “rule” in them, that would also be helpful
The 196 community has an (unenforced) rule that you must post every time you visit, so they’re posts that are following the rule.
Disclosure: I don’t know the full lore and I’m only answering because nobody else has.
My vague understanding is that this is unique to the ‘196’ community which has a community rule that every post must include the word “rule” in the title post. So it’s super common to see because it’s an active community. Beyond that I don’t really understand what the community is about as it seems to have a random variety of posts.
corn, beans and squash are known as the three sisters
history will say they were roommates.
“best friends who slept in the same bed probably because it was cheaper to have only one bed”
Vegetable society was different back then.
about the beans: look for top all time
After the wave of newcomers lowered lemmy started to have some “weekly” phases where other memes became the meta like the german pedalo or moths and many others.But as a moth fren i bring some moth memes back from time to time :)
Hexbear has been Beanis posting for a long time now. I don’t know how it started, but it’s a significant part of that instance’s content at this point
ASK THE MOTH. THE MOTH WILL TELL ALL!
Don’t forget about no pooping!
I was sick of seeing political stuff on the shitposting group so I started bombarding it with corn until it stopped. I had happened to have a bunch of corn pictures saved on my phone because I had flooded my friend’s discord with corn pictures just to goof on her.
It spiraled into a glorious corn filled nightmare insanity, and as someone from Ohio, I appreciate that.
I think the beans came up later because people like to play with themes.
thank you for this well-done psyop. we really need more non-political memes.
here, have a picture of the Three Sisters as a reward:

O thank you
No? The beans came before the corn…
Then maybe the beans came first idk, I’m not gonna go back and check.
I know, they came first, there were even Jeans in between. I’m sorry if I shattered your world, but I’m sure otherwise you are a really important person.
It… Didn’t really shatter my world, I really don’t care if beans came first. I’m not that important and neither is like, any of this.
Don’t act like this isn’t the most important thing to you and that you have tried to claim Lemmy history
I did start the corn thing though. corn man
It’s not the most important things to me though, this is like, a very small shitposting community in a very small niche Reddit knock off.
Sorry if me saying I did something made you mad
See its clearly something you desperately need everybody to know and believe

First I’m hearing about this. I guess Lemmy will lose their mind when they learn about Kenyan githeri
From what I hear corn “is good enough and its got the juice”
“I LOVE CORN” -that kid that loves corn
Corn is out. Squash is the it thing now!

stupid sexy squash

It’s like wearing nothing at all!
Butternut.
Lol!
I wonder if Cornholio eats beans
Am i alone in seeing the working class foods as an indicator of the politics of the lemmy community on average?
I’ve been on Lemmy for a whole day and I’ve literally never heard anybody referenced corn and beans
