Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
“It’s amazing how something I wrote in 1998 possesses the traction on the minds of many a 16-year-old girl to this day, forcing my hand to write this post in order to kill those dreams once and for all.
Alas, what’s truly astonishing is that in spite of this post’s existence (as well as the true origin of Alexandria’s Genesis being a Daria fan fiction website), nothing has changed among the 99 percent of you who believe that what I wrote is truth, if my bookmarked Tumblr search tag is anything to go by…
…Alexandria’s Genesis is not, was not, and will never be a real thing”
“AG was overall a silly plot device that also comes off as unintentionally misogynistic and racist, but somehow escaped the confines of a Daria fan fiction site into the wild open plains of The Internet. I can’t explain how this happened, or who first thought this was a real thing, but the elephant in the room has a question: Why is the only known document regarding a posthuman/alien genetic mutation posted on a fan fiction website? If I wanted to post this as a “real” document for New Agers to swallow hook-line-sinker, I would have I just created some lame Geocities website and been done with it.”
There you go, followers. More information on Alexandria’s Genesis.
