frustratingly clever

"Average person discovers infinitely many infinities per year" factoid is actually just a statistical error. The average person discovers 0 infinities per year. Cantor Georg, who introduced the diagonal argument and discovered infinitely many infinities in 1891 alone, is an outlier and cannot be counted.

I think our coins should have holes in them. Currencies with holes in them are just superior currencies. All currency should be something you can string like beads. China knows what's up.

horizontal first cause if i make a mistake in the sign i can just add the vertical line.

Another mathblr poll because I love stirring shit in the fandom and my poll about square roots still gets notes

Feel free to defend or explain your way.

“even a worm is turning in his grave” you have done something so fundamentally offensive that even a worm would disapprove beyond the grave.

Remembered the phrase "[someone] is turning in his grave", as a way of saying that someone who's now dead would so deeply disapprove of something that a living person is doing that their corpse would stir in unease.

Then I remembered an expression, "even a worm will turn", as a way of saying that no matter how downtrodden or lowly someone seems, they can nonetheless turn against their abusers and oppressors once they've had enough of it.

Then cross-contamination happened and the phrase "a worm is turning in his grave" emerged to me. I have no idea what that means.

studying the fall of the western Roman empire, and I can’t help but imagine Roman legions getting absolutely demolished by a bunch of Goths all dolled up in their fishnets and black lipstick.

genuinely wild to me when I go to someone's house and we watch TV or listen to music or something and there are ads. I haven't seen an ad in my home since 2005. what do you mean you haven't set up multiple layers of digital infrastructure to banish corporate messaging to oblivion before it manifests? listen, this is important. this is the 21st century version of carving sigils on the wall to deny entry to demons or wearing bells to ward off the Unseelie. come on give me your router admin password and I'll show you how to cast a protective spell of Get Thee Tae Fuck, Capital

fuck you *lintifies your sweaters*

I love eating the inside of my mouth.
