Our Local Newspaper Ran A Story About The Legendary Graffiti Artist Who Recently Passed Away And. Literally

Our local newspaper ran a story about the legendary graffiti artist who recently passed away and. Literally everything about it is fucking insane. I'm insane about it.

So this guy has been extremely active for around fifteen years, during which he spread these beautiful, high quality pieces all over the country, way over a thousand of his standard signature, and probably thousands more. He did completely batshit stuff like literally spray painting an entire train from top to bottom or leaving his signature at the top of a 600ft tall overpass and this whole time, only five people from his crew know who he really is. To everyone else it's a complete mystery.

And then he dies at the age of 35. A few weeks after his death, his crew shows up at his completely unassuming parents' doorstep, reveals who they are and asks if they can host a memorial exhibition of his art.

Turns out, this dude has been leading an insane double life. In the daytime he was a meek little office worker with a partially paralyzed arm and no social life to speak of. In the nighttime he was a fucking legend. Not only did he climb that fucking 600ft overpass, he did it WITH A PHYSICAL DISABILITY. THE MADLAD. And throughout the entire time, fifteen years, he got caught once. ONCE. HE DID ALL THAT UNNOTICED. THAT'S INSANE.

not even JRR Tolkien, who famously developed the concept of the Secondary World and firmly believed that no trace of the Real World should be evoked in the fictional world, was able to remove potatoes from his literature. this is a man who developed whole languages and mythologies for his literary world, who justified its existence in English as a translation* simply because he was so miffed he couldn't get away with making the story fully alien to the real world. and not even he, in extremis, was so cruel as to deny his characters the heavenly potato. could not even conceive a universe devoid of the potato. such is its impact. everyone please take a moment to say thank you to South Americans for developing and cultivating one of earth's finest vegetables. the potato IS all that. literally world-changing food. bless.

I have finally finished writing this long essay on solar winds. Good lord I forgot how much I hated writing these things. I got an extension and everything but I've still had to pull several all nighters just to get it finished on time.

I actually do love solar modelling, and especially the combination of fluid dynamics and magnetism. Solar wind especially is awesome, but at the moment I'm just exhausted from it. I'm just praying to the immortal soul of Eugene Parker that I'll be able to get the 70% I want on the paper.

If anyone wants to hear more about it I'll happily share, but you'll have to give me some time to find the enthusiasm again

THE TRIANGLE-INEQUALITY APPRECIATION SOCIETY

THE TRIANGLE-INEQUALITY APPRECIATION SOCIETY

Hello fellow travelers & ponderers on this planet we call home.

Having recently been freed from a truly miserable coursework project, I am happy to announce my new project: The triangle-inequality appreciation society (TIAS).

Our goals are to:

Appreciate the triangle inequality

Create an irregular newsletter about the triangle inequality

Have semi-regular meetups to discuss our appreciation of the triangle inequality

From the poster above I've removed the phone number and email, but you can just respond to this post or message me and I'll hook you up.

The truth is that for all the love famous results in maths like the hairy ball theorem or Fermat's last theorem get, one of the most frequently used results gets the least love. This is why we've started this society for the appreciation of the triangle inequality.

We're based in Exeter, but all are welcome. At the moment, most members are math students but everyone can join us there's no requirements other than to appreciate the triangle inequality.

Any contributions you would like to make to the newsletter are appreciated, it can be anything! A poem, a quiz, a comic strip, an article, a derivation, anyway you want to express your love is wanted.

Come and join us!
