No, I read what you wrote. I am upset about exactly what you wrote. I want you to listen to trans people and their experience. I want you to realize your experience as a cis person makes your opinions irrelevant on the matter and if you want to be a good ally you need to purge transphobia from the spaces you moderate.

Why should we engage in good faith on your “ideas” of wanting to fucking murder us with your bigotry? Unironically, the world would be better off without you.

Yeah like wtf is this lmao, apparently “war crime” is now when bad country does bad thing

It honestly sounds a lot like Hexbear. Made a rednote account today, but I’ve never used tiktok or instagram before, so the entire thing was kinda inscrutable for me lol, but I’m so glad that this is where the tiktok exodus is heading.

Right and the point of defining this number as a non-repeating infinite sequence of 0s and 1s is just to show that non-repetition of digits alone is not sufficient to say a number contains all finite sequences.

Math kind of relies on assumptions, you really can’t get anywhere in math without an assumption at the beginning of your thought process.

That’s a decimal approximation of Pi with an ellipsis at the end to indicate its an approximation, not a definition. The way the ellipsis is used above is different. It’s being used to define a number via the decimal expansion by saying it’s an infinite sum of negative powers of 10 defined by the pattern before the ellipsis.

So we have:

0.101001000100001000001 . . . = 10^-1 + 10^-2 + 10^-3 + 10^-4 +10^-5+ . . .

Pi, however, is not defined this way. Pi can be defined as twice the solution of the integral from -1 to 1 of the square root of (1-x^2), a function defining a unit semi-circle.

Implicitly defining a number via it’s decimal form typically relies on their being a pattern to follow after the ellipsis. You can define a different number with twos in it, but if you put an ellipsis at the end you’re implying there’s a different pattern to follow for the rest of the decimal expansion, hence your number is not the same number as the one without twos in it.

It’s implicitly defined here by its decimal form:

0.101001000100001000001 . . .

The definition of this number is that the number of 0s after each 1 is given by the total previous number of 1s in the sequence. That’s why it can’t contain 2 despite being infinite and non-repeating.

It sucks to realize in hindsight, but if Bernie had won the 2016 primary he would have been thoroughly ratfucked as a matter of bipartisan consensus. The Democrats would have sabotaged his national campaign at every step, probably even going as far as to have a few high profile Democrats endorse a third party candidate to make sure Bernie loses.

Thanks for bringing that up, I’ll try that if fundraising fails.

The chuds probably are worse people on average, but you know what I hate far more than a bad person? A bad person who tries to manipulate you while pretending to be your friend. That is the liberals to their core, something the chuds would never do.

Yeah your experience here is extremely atypical. A mildly inexperienced LSD user who has a smooth and pleasant trip on one hit will, 99% of the time, be totally obliterated by 5 hits, much less 10. Like going from a walk in the park to literal ego death where you forget your own existence as a conscious entity. Most people say it’s extremely non-linear, my own experience included.

For me, the length of the trip does noticeably scale with dose, but the potency of the trip itself at peak scales far faster, almost exponentially so.

Definitely, they are in no way a party drug. Two people doing hard opiates together is just two people sitting in silence next to each other while they nod out in their own little worlds. That said, when you both run out and have to go through the exact same demented set of withdrawal symptoms together? That builds real solidarity, unironically, but there is no fun/excitement in getting high on opiates. In fact, they sort of kill my ability to have real fun because they are taking up all the mu opioid receptor spots that could otherwise be occupied by endogenous opioid peptides when I do something rewarding.

I can’t even enjoy music on opioids, which blows my mind. Not even on my Buprenorphine maintenance dose. Once withdrawals start I can listen to my favorite songs and feel things again. Not worth withdrawing over, but it definitely helps pass the time if I have to go there.

Yeah so the problem with hard opiates is that they’ll hollow your soul out over time, and they are actively more addictive the more your life sucks when you start using them. People who have good lives tend to be more likely to say things like “opiates are too subtle/overrated”. But when shit sucks, opiates make you feel content. Obviously that’s real bad if you weren’t already somewhat content with life. When I started using them I felt like I found some sort of answer to everything wrong with me. But my problems didn’t go away, I just stopped being bothered by them.

The shittiest thing is that this effect isn’t reliable. It’s called the honeymoon phase of opioid addiction. Within a few months of active opioid addiction, you’ll stop feeling the effects, but you’ll still need to continuously use them to avoid horrific withdrawal symptoms.

I recommend LSD, Shrooms, or dissociatives instead. The euphoria can be vastly superior because it isn’t this kind of “ultimately contented, but empty” euphoria you get with opioids. Instead you just sort of feel really good about the actual positive shit that exists in your life and around you.

Yeah to put it into perspective, she was coming in behind Andrew Yang in her home state of California where she was the sitting senator.

For a moment I felt I had underestimated her when she started garnering wider support after picking the least ghoulish ghoul to be her VP, but now it’s clear she’s increasingly cooked the more people get to know her whereas Trump is a known quantity.

Makes me wonder about applying other physics metaphors to political economy

Best way to go about this would be to search for symmetries in the system, then you can make analogies to things like conservation laws
