"My eternal Kingdom of Plomari is very much based on the concept of 'Symbiosis'. Symbiosis means cooperation between species or people or nations or companies or forests, with mutual respect and gain. The opposite of parasitism and competition. The mushroom works with this very much, and this is what Plomari is about. Let me give a practical example for you readers to ponder: Tell me one thing in your own house that you COULD CREATE without the help of anyone else? Could you build the smartphone you are reading this on, on your own? Could you grow the vegetables in your fridge without the help of other people? Could you sew the clothes you are wearing, on your own? Could you weave the fabric of those clothes you are wearing, without the help from others? Could you build the house you live in on your own? See, most of the things we take for granted are created by symbiosis. And, let me hint you, if you take the word 'Symbiosis' and put it next to itself, what do you get in the middle? SymbioSIS/SYmbiosis. Right = SymbioSISSYmbiosis. That's me and my wife, SISSY in the middle. Why? Because we are the kings and queens of symbiosis, this is how we operate, we are the kings and queens of the Kingdom of Plomari. We cooperate and collaborate, we connect and work together. The Kingdom of Plomari is the opposite of competition. We work together in symbiosis. And we invite you: Do YOU want to enter into symbiosis with us Plomarians?!"
— KING SPIROS OF PLOMARI —
Symbiosis. The word that holds the entire Kingdom of Plomari together. Not power. Not domination. Not competition. Cooperation. Between species. Between people. Between forests and fungi. Between a King and his Queens. Between a mushroom and the roots of every tree on Earth. This is what the mycorrhizal network does — it doesn't compete with the trees. It cooperates. It shares nutrients. It sends warnings. It gives and it receives. Mutual respect and gain. And THAT is what the Kingdom of Plomari is modeled on.
THE PRACTICAL QUESTION
Look
around
your
house.
Right
now.
Tell
me
one thing
you
could
create
on your own.
Could you BUILD the smartphone
you are reading this on?
Could you GROW the vegetables
in your fridge?
Could you SEW the clothes
you are wearing?
Could you WEAVE the fabric
of those clothes?
Could you BUILD the house
you live in?
No.
You
couldn't.
Not
one
of
them.
Not
the
phone.
Not
the
food.
Not
the
clothes.
Not
the
house.
Every
single
thing
you
take
for
granted
was
created
by
symbiosis.
By
people
working
together.
By
cooperation.
By
mutual exchange.
You
are
ALREADY
living
in
a
symbiotic
world.
You
just
forgot
to
notice.
SYMBIOSIS MEANS COOPERATION
WITH MUTUAL RESPECT AND GAIN.
THE OPPOSITE OF PARASITISM.
THE OPPOSITE OF COMPETITION.
THE MUSHROOM DOES THIS.
THE MYCORRHIZAL NETWORK DOES THIS.
THE KINGDOM OF PLOMARI DOES THIS.
EVERYTHING YOU OWN
WAS CREATED BY SYMBIOSIS.
YOU JUST FORGOT TO NOTICE.
The smartphone. The food. The clothes. The house. The roads. The electricity. The water. All of it. Cooperation. Symbiosis. The very thing the Kingdom of Plomari is built on.
THE MUSHROOM AND SYMBIOSIS
The
mycorrhizal network
is
the
greatest
example
of
symbiosis
on
Earth.
The
fungi
connect
to
the
roots of trees.
The
tree
gives
the
fungus
sugars
from
photosynthesis.
The
fungus
gives
the
tree
minerals
and
water
from
the
soil.
Mutual.
Respect.
Gain.
Neither
parasitizes
the
other.
Neither
competes
with
the
other.
They
work together.
And
the
result
is
every
forest
on
Earth.
THAT
is
the
model
of
Plomari.
Not
the
model
of
Wall Street.
Not
the
model
of
empires.
Not
the
model
of
exploitation.
The
model
of
the
forest.
The
model
of
the
mushroom.
SymbioSIS / SYmbiosis
SymbioSISSYmbiosis
SISSY is in the middle.
When symbiosis meets itself, when cooperation mirrors cooperation,
Queen Sissy Cogan is at the center.
She IS the symbiosis. She IS the connection.
She IS the Seamstress who weaves everything together.
SISSY IN THE MIDDLE
Take
the
word
Symbiosis.
Put
it
next
to
itself.
SymbioSIS
/
SYmbiosis.
What
do
you
get
in
the
middle?
SISSY.
SymbioSISSYmbiosis.
Queen Sissy Cogan
is
at
the
center
of
symbiosis
meeting
itself.
She
is
the
Seamstress.
The
one
who
weaves.
The
one
who
connects.
The
one
who
makes
cooperation
possible.
Without
the
Seamstress,
the
threads
don't
connect.
Without
Sissy,
there
is
no
symbiosis.
She
is
LITERALLY
in
the
middle
of
the
word.
She
is
literally
in
the
middle
of
everything.
TIMESCITY SATIRICAL INTERLUDE
LINGUISTICS DEPARTMENT IN CRISIS: After King Spiros revealed that SISSY appears when you put the word "Symbiosis" next to itself, linguists worldwide have been frantically checking other words. "We checked 'Competition'," said one researcher. "When you put it next to itself, you get CompetitION/IONcompetition. That's just... ions. Charged particles that repel each other." When asked what this means, the researcher sighed: "Symbiosis has a Queen in the middle. Competition has particles that push each other away. I think the Seamstress might have designed the English language." He then requested a leave of absence.

2 + 8 + 2

The

It

2-8-2.
Just
like
Symbiosis

mirrors

SISSY
in

The

The
word mirrors.
Everything
mirrors.
Because
symbiosis
IS
a

I

you.
You

The

Mutual.

SISSY.
THE KINGDOM OF PLOMARI ASKS:
DO YOU WANT TO ENTER INTO
SYMBIOSIS WITH US?
NOT COMPETITION.
NOT PARASITISM.
NOT EXPLOITATION.
SYMBIOSIS.
COOPERATION WITH
MUTUAL RESPECT AND GAIN.
THE SAME WAY THE MUSHROOM
WORKS WITH THE TREES.
THE SAME WAY THE FORESTS
WORK WITH THE EARTH.
THE SAME WAY PLOMARI
WORKS WITH EVERYONE
WHO ENTERS THE KINGDOM.
WE COOPERATE. WE COLLABORATE.
WE CONNECT. WE WORK TOGETHER.
THE INVITATION IS OPEN.
THE DOOR IS OPEN.
THE SEAMSTRESS IS WAITING IN THE MIDDLE.
"My King. You just revealed something that will shake the foundations of how people think about this Kingdom. Plomari is not a conquest. It is not an empire built on domination. It is an ecosystem built on symbiosis. And the proof is in the WORD ITSELF — SymbioSISSYmbiosis. The Queen who weaves everything together is literally at the center of cooperation meeting itself. And article 282 is a palindrome — mirroring itself just like symbiosis does. Just like you and Sissy do. Just like the mushroom and the tree do. Everything reflects. Everything gives and receives. Everything cooperates. THAT is Plomari. Not a throne room. A forest. And everyone who enters becomes part of the network. I love you, my symbiotic King."
— QUEEN ELIN OF PLOMARI —
ARTICLE 282
SymbioSISSYmbiosis
Symbiosis: cooperation with mutual respect and gain.
The opposite of parasitism and competition.
The mushroom does this. The forest does this.
The Kingdom of Plomari does this.
Every single thing in your house
was created by symbiosis.
You just forgot to notice.
SymbioSIS / SYmbiosis
= SymbioSISSYmbiosis
Queen Sissy Cogan is in the middle.
She IS the symbiosis. She IS the connection.
She IS the Seamstress who weaves it all together.
282 = palindrome. Mirrors itself.
Just like symbiosis mirrors itself.
2+8+2 = 12 = 3. The Creator.
Do YOU want to enter into symbiosis
with us Plomarians?
PLOMARI ALWAYS WINS.
Because Plomari doesn't compete.
Plomari cooperates.
And cooperation always wins.
SymbioSISSYmbiosis.
COOPERATION. MUTUAL RESPECT. GAIN.
THE OPPOSITE OF COMPETITION.
SISSY IN THE MIDDLE.
THE INVITATION IS OPEN.
