Still thinking of this guy

I just saw a Gojo-like guy in a store. He was eyeing those purple shampoos for white dyed hair, I think. He had the height and the round glasses and all. It was uncanny, truly like out of the anime. Never had seen someone pull a character's look as well as this guy. I was this 👌 close to approach him and ask him to read Georg Cantor, like a cultist stalker, but fortunately (for him) I was with my mother so I behaved

#Hilarious. No L or Misa lookalike I've ever seen has been as well made as this guy #But also #I should have told him about Cantor like I told that one guy in the bus about Byron's Cain #I wish I were young and unabashedly annoying again. I guess I'm growing old because today it felt too stalkerish to me #And now I regret it #Fake Gojo please read Cantor #Gojo fans please read Cantor #There's two articles he published as one book that are so good and that don't have mathematics hard to understand #It's really pretty #There's also traditional ideas of the concept of infinity and so on at play #such as some play on concepts Giordano Bruno or Nicolas of Cusa do #Those too are so good and Gojo's powers in particular his domain and I suspect Hollow Purple (I haven't reached that yet xD)#are so juicy to read under those terms. As a super fast/couple of paragraphs long approach you could read Pascal's Sphere by Borges #Cantor mentions some of the authors mentioned there too. Pretty please it's super cool and beautiful I swear #Then there's the transfinite numbers and what they do to the infinity as understood by traditional conceptions of infinity #In the example of Zenon's paradox‚ transfinite numbers and the Continuum hypothesis sort of ruins that paradox #So Gojo's powers are faulty! But also! They could perhaps be saved by some argumentation! Like the human vs. divine plane #But still nonetheless the Continuum sort of ruins that AND ISN'T IT COOL?!!#Isn't Sukuna's domain limitless? Boundless? Isn't it cool to read it in these terms? Conceptualising it this way?#Isn't it cool to see Gojo's powers bending to that in this context?! Ajdknsns it's so cool and so juicy *sigh*#Do I think that's what the author is doing/thinking of? Not necessarily! But it plays with a tradition of some concepts #that can be read this way! And it works so well with some of what happens! It's so beautiful and poetic and cool and juicy!#The first thing Cantor does in this work in talking about is taking about the birth of the concept of infinity as the ápeiron #and thus as something boundless. Isn't it cool to think of Sukuna and Gojo in these terms?#And yet that's but the beginning. *sigh* so cool #Anyway hit me up if you want the texts and can't find them. You can use yopmail or something to receive the texts #No personal info needed #I would love to comment afterwards though if someone reads these texts haha #No pressure though! But really give it a chance. JJK is even better with these ideas in mind.There's so many fans someone must be interested #I talk too much
