STABbins McGee (Spooky) 🇵🇸

I just got a lot of new mathematician followers, so in my attempt to pander, here’s my area of interest. For the past year, I’ve been translating, solving, and writing detailed solutions for Japanese college entrance exam problems. I even code randomly-generating variants for student practice.

“Some viewers were unanimous.” Yesterday it was raining all day for an hour.

Just stumbled on this cool Walter Koenig story.

It’s been a wild 24 hours for me on BlueSky and I’m getting so many messages asking what can be learned from Brazil and applied globally on top of the below. Once again, I’m not a political expert but this is what I’ve seen as a consensus amongst specialists and voters so far 🧵

Check on your Arab friends (and any other brown friends while you're at it - MAGA assholes aren't known for being observant or discriminating in their targets).

We know Arab culture and science is precious. We know that RFK Jr. is lying. I would like to quote my Arab-American partner’s words on why it is important to realize what RFK Jr. is doing: “What he said is blatant stochastic terrorism. It’s knowingly and intentionally trying to incite pogroms.”

RFK is of course correct, it has been *checks notes* an entire year since an Arab has won a Nobel Prize

I’m both. I really believe I should emigrate for my own safety, but the U.S.’s allies are still too in-denial to accept asylum applications.

A frightening swath of U.S.’ians see police and ICE as their professional minority-removers.

That’s… what an election is.

More like Narcissa Mother.

M.C. Hammer as a teacher: Remember, kids, you can do anything. Me as a student: What about touching this?

Why do I think my students won’t see the irony that they left multiple-choice questions blank in their exam on probability?

One of the most disingenuous statistics is ”leading cause of death.“ If you could eradicate one of them entirely, there would still be another leading cause of death. If you fixed every leading cause of death, humans would just plotz for no reason. Which is a lot harder to fix.

Facebook just showed me two (2) exes with their new partners on the same feed. If you’re going to mine my data, at least show some decorum.

You could say Dracula gave an… ORAL EXAMINATION?!?!?!

Able-bodied folks always have to gratuitously mention the disability.

Hitler’s hideaway burned down 80 years late. Never lecture me again about procrastinating.

You know the old fiction cliché about a marooned soldier who didn’t know World War II ended? In my headcanon, he finally got back to civilization in October 2026 and the first thing he saw was Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest.…

Wake up, babe, new worst thing that could possibly happen just dropped.

My cat has no idea that I already know and don’t care that she’d kill me if she was bigger, and that it doesn’t change that she’s my best friend.

I would be so pissed if I lived almost a century and my highest posthumous Google result was the mostly-forgotten Super Nintendo game that used a throwaway pic of me with a banjo.

Overheard a commercial that was like, “Greatness is earned. Greatness takes time.” The 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 commercial was for AI.

Deadass wouldn’t put it past Tesla to take pre-orders for a time machine that “will totally work once I invent the science of time travel.”

You should give me money instead of other YouTubers like Ethan Klein because I can promise I will never ever ever make knowing who I am an imposition on your day.

i know i’m not saying anything revelatory, but all of these kalshi/polymarket/meta ads are so fucking gross, man. i just want to watch baseball without being fucking bombarded with pro-gambling and pro-ai propaganda

Harry Houdini notoriously loathed fraudulent mediums and fake necromancy. So of course he’s who Fox Nation, in the depths of their ignorance, chose to fake-revive in AI form for a fucking commercial. www.smithsonianmag.com/history/for-...
