Horizontal First Cause If I Make A Mistake In The Sign I Can Just Add The Vertical Line.

I actually meant like, a mast. mast-ectomy, cause every part of the ship gets removed at some point. maybe if it was a ship with one of those women sculptures at the front?

at some point Theseus’ ship had to get a mastectomy

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.

Probably because the Cyrillic alphabet is very closely related to the Greek alphabet. Here’s a Venn diagram of letters in common between the Greek, Cyrillic, and Latin scripts

Reblog to hug prev poster (they need a hug)

I got a glitch where instagram reels flashed all of the reels it had loaded consecutively over the span of about 1 seconds and it was like looking into the eyes of God

Bitches love reblogging this post every Tuesday the 18th

alternatively, “a worm turning in his grave” could indicate the existential futility of a pursuit because worms live underground, and so they already spend their lives in the place where they will die. e.g “I hate my nine-to-five, I just feel like a worm turning in his 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.

i remember hearing about the college app essays as a kid and how much time people spend on them and so starting in 7th grade, I would practice writing proper essays, like 10-15 pages EACH. I did this like all the way through highschool because I figured that was what I would be expected to be able to write, and then I first looked over the commonapp questions and they’re like, a couple hundred words on the vaguest prompt that has ever prompted. like, i understand there are administrative reasons, but I was so godamned shocked because everyone had called them essays, which to me meant a complete piece of writing??, and ig i just ran with that assumption as a kid? I feel like that’s pretty reasonable, is it normal that people struggle so much to write a few pages? Is this an American thing?
