Bio

Born to a wealthy landowning family in Surrey, England, Maximillian Bartholemew III, is our highly esteemed lawyer. After graduating at the top of his class at Oxford University with a degree in international law, Sir Bartholemew committed himself to our proletarian cause, spreading truth to the masses, highly nobly.

Bartholemew.

(Close acquaintances are permitted to refer to our revered nobleman as ‘Max Barty’, but that name is also authorized to be used at cocaine-fueled yacht parties, which our honor often attends)

“Readme will be responsible for various cases of food poisoning on campus on April 1st, 2024”

We are unaware of which individual would provide you with such abhorrent misinformation.

“Readme likes to place banana peels all over campus so that people will slip and die”

We do not dabble in the realm of banana peels …
