Our People Our Culture

In every trend, every story, every movement. We are there from inception and there when you share reshare, forward, comment, like and more. The meme is nothing without us.

There is nowhere you can hide, even if you’re underground, indie, or minority. Global, corporate, private, institute or government. We are right there in every message, personal, professional, societal, on TV ads, digital banners and social posts, radio, billboard, street pole headlines, WhatsApp group texts and musings in notebooks scribbling on blackboards and graffiti in city streets.

We are language. We are ideas. We are in. We are out. We are forward thinking and back remembering. We conjure up. We provoke. We start. We end. We move you. We move with you. We move as one. We change shit. We influence millions. We are more than words, bigger than thoughts, more impactful than asteroids.

We spell it out, shout it from the rooftops. Were smooth and rough around the edges. We don’t give a fuck about spelling. We are the words in your head, your hand, your heart, on the lips of everyone. The spine of a generation. The backbone of an individual.

We are here. We are now. We are you. You are us.

There’s nothing more powerful than ideas turning into words turning into movements and the journey starts here with a simple hashtag, and our name… is built around it.
