This hits because i was another “math is hard” 80s barbie. I got lucky - because I found languages in high school, stumbled into linguistics (which at my university we called math for girls because the small program was 99.9% women students).
Another aspect of this: I always had astonishingly good test scores in language (and the science ACT). I was reading at a college level, including science books, by 1st grade.
For a long time as a kid, I felt like *none of that really mattered* because I sucked at standardized math testing.

have i gone down a rabbit hole of seeing how many seats have been purchased for showings of Melania at our local theater this weekend? Yes. How close am I to buying a ticket to another movie so I can go see what person actually shows up? so very very close.

i feel like not enough responses recognize that this is a glimpse into an alternate universe not just some chemical reaction
the idea of hallucinating dozens of elves or whatever is terrifying to me www.bbc.com/future/artic...
'They saw them on their dishes when eating': The mushroom making people hallucinate dozens of tiny humans
Only recently described by science, the mysterious mushrooms are found in different parts of the world, but they give people the same exact visions.

want to obsess over knitting Herbert Niebling lace projects? Because it’s esoteric and definitely my current interest.
u heard sharon, everyone post about their esoteric interests right fucking now. for the good of the community, we need to be hyperfixationmaxxing.
i think this site really needs to figure out how to grow the non-politics verticals (the baseball moment was a good thing!) because i suspect a lot of the bad clusters come out of the political clusters driving 95% of ENG-lang posts

Mr Bachorz in 9th grade Social studies always said if you fail to plan you plan to fail.
despite the fact that i often say that he was my least favorite teacher ever, i remember more of his aphorisms than anything else i learned in school.

I can definitely come up with more reasons to get a shingles vax than the president could skeet in a night. Shingles is hell.
people gotta talk about their shingles experiences. no one is going to enjoy this
All over my FB people talking about their bad experiences with shingles vax and dissuading each other from getting it! We need to give people real info on how to mitigate the symtoms caused by vaccines because vaccines are always better than meeting a virus unprepared. Yet drs aren't coaching ppl

I never knew that my time working at Pizza Hut was not the best time to be working there. I was too early.

My first philosophy paper at university i tried to argue against Descartes position that there was a god because something something geometry, and i wrote that circles in nature generally weren’t perfect therefore not a proof. i wasn’t good at philosophy but this post reminded me of that lol.
People were arguing in my mentions today about whether the Earth is "round" when it's technically an irregular oblate spheroid and look "round" doesn't mean "absolutely perfect sphere" it means round. A soccer ball is round, a cantaloupe is round, a fluffy borb in winter is round, just go with it.

I love a spooky night, when the sky is that right deep blue black and the houses look all rocky tacky and you know the ghosts are about even though there are no ghosts. Unless the cats start chasing shadows on the walls and then you just leave it all to the universe to sort out.
do you believe in ghosts or are you like me, a person who finds themself saying all the time “I absolutely don’t believe in ghosts, but this place has ghosts.”
