I Think I'm More Partial To The Tag # Singular Mathematic, As # Mathematic And # Mathematics Are A One

I think I'm more partial to the tag # singular mathematic, as # mathematic and # mathematics are a one letter difference that would be hard to catch when skimming a list of tags at the bottom of a screen.

I just had a completely random urge to test an assumption I'd held for a while. Mathematics implies the existence of an individual Mathematic and its fellows. I imagined these to be the disciplines of maths like Algebra, Calculus, Geometry etc. However, I never checked... UNTIL NOW!

Google mostly says that it doesn't exist and tries to correct you to mathematical (D;). BUT ENGLISH IS A DESCRIPTIVE LANGUAGE! Let's band together, my (checks followers) 0 friends and make mathematic a real word that will go on to confuse people into thinking 'math' and 'maths' don't mean the same thing!

BASED, maybe sometime I should blog about how I would punish my players in a DnD oneshot for trying to poke holes in my (non-existant) worldbuilding. Short preview: I would use my improv skills to quickly think of a contrived reason why there was no plot hole and then I would make that reason incredibly cursed. I generally have a limited drawing ability but one of those players is a MADLAD and drew the cursed elves I created when I decided that the reason the NPC elves didn't like one of the players was because elves had a cultural thing against short people because they were tall (like LOTR elves)(also, don't question the logic behind short/tall discrimination. Yes, it's rediculous but it's also an in-joke and society sort of discriminates based on height with different genders only being allowed to be tall or short) BUT the elf in my party had 4ft something as their character height (slightly taller than Santa elves) so one thing led to another and now... Elves ears are half of their body height and they measure from the top of their ears, where they have a second pair of eyeballs attached like snails.

Because it's still sort of the new year and I've not blogged nearly enough to give this internet corner an identity yet, I thought I'd talk about my life at the moment.

I'm on Uni break from my Medical Science degree, which will hopefully become a Medicine post-grad in two years. I really enjoy Science and want to be a Doctor (at the moment, I'm looking at Pathology) but I kind of miss the diversity of High School with all of STEM plus the Humanities.

Because I'm super forgetful, I've recently started using Obsidian to try to organise my thoughts into a 'second brain' so that important things don't evaporate from my head as soon as I need them.

I'm self-teaching myself Python, which is fun. I'm currently trying to write a program that lets you create and use a character sheet for DnD5e.

I'm a little interested in learning how to use base2 counting in everyday life, and a lot interested in the Shavian writing system for English at the moment.

I'm a lifesaver and bartender but mostly unemployed.

I play hockey, and am thinking about moving back to defence after trying out striker last year.

genuinely one of the saddest parts of this new era of the internet is how hard it is to rick roll someone now. with people's attention spans shortening so much, they wouldn't even get through the first few bait seconds before clicking off the video. like i saw a comment that ended with "btw i made all of this up" and the replies kept treating it so seriously because none of them finished the entire 4 sentence comment. and We're no strangers to love You know the rules and so do I (do I) A full commitment's what I'm thinking of You wouldn't get this from any other guy I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

I don't know why, but ever since I decided I should start tracking my mood out of 10 in my journal, it seems that I've had tonnes of days where either something really good happens that is then balanced out by something bad, or I have really boring days, or they're days that I can appreciate but with minor inconveniences balancing them out. As a result, I've been having lots of 5/10 days, which feels kind of bad because that looks like I'm having a horrible time of it, but I'm just trying to be really objective and I've been having a very neutral time, exactly 5, not a good day at 7 or a bad day at 3.

I suppose it's just one of the introspective benefits of journaling that allows me to look back and notice how middle-of-the-road my life has been the last week or so.

Wow! I should maybe actually use Tumblr more because when I actually make a thought out post (my post on singular mathematic) I got lots of people replying and re-blogging and generally being nice to me. It was unexpected to say the least, especially since (as I said in the post) I only had half a follower (probable bot) but now after remembering that Tumblr exists and thinking I should maybe try to post more just as an exercise to keep my think-juices flowing, I now have my first two mutuals!

That's very cool, thanks internet strangers for this weird tiny piece of validation :D
