Werid facts about math that I find interesting

If you put all squares in a sequence, you may notice each square can be created if you add up the odd numbers, form smallest to biggest, 1+3=4+5=9+7=16+9=25+11=36+13=49+15=64+17=81+19=100, so on and so forth, multiplying squares or cubes together will get you the square or cube of their multiple, squaring a cube will always give you the square of the cube and the cube of its square.

If you combine a number of objects into unique groups, you will always get the power of two of the number of objects you combined -1, so 2-1=1 for 1, 4-1=3 for 2, 8-1=7 for 3, 16-1=15 for 4, 32-1=31 for 5, 64-1=63 for 6, so on and so forth, but if you add of the previous ones you also get it, since 1 is the only odd power of two, if you add the non negative powers of 2, the result will always be odd, which means the total of all unique groups you can create will always be odd.

Fibonacci numbers, created by adding the 2 previous numbers together to create a new number will eventually converge on the golden ratio, if you divide consecutive numbers in the sequence together, the Fibonacci sequence is 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, and well it basically continues non stop.

oh nice one away from a power of two

if the “sans is from the deltarune universe” theory is true then it is extremely funny that we’ve been calling him “sans undertale” for years

It would have taken another immortal to keep up with him.

so i haven't read the books but i did read the Devil's Minion chapter and this part made me laugh out loud:

Medical devices should not require an iOS or Android app to work. It took me twelve fucking minutes to set up and get my phone to connect to my migraine treatment device, 12 minutes during a horrendous migraine and I had to fight with my phone to get it to work instead of pressing a fucking button on the device. It might need a small controller to change strength but thats not fucking difficult to add.

Relying on a phone is bullshit: what if I'm out of battery? what if bluetooth is broken or something? what if I'm in too much pain to get the treatment app to work defeating the purpose? What if I'm paranoid about privacy so chose a non iOS/Android phone? What if I have issues with smartphones so use a classic cell phone? I know people that require that.

Requiring a disabled person to have iOS/Android in order for treatment to work is an unnecessary and borderline discriminatory practice.

Edit: After seeing all the personal anecdotes in comments reblogs and tags, I've come to a new conclusion— it is discriminatory.

Maybe I just had a different textbook, but I don't remember seeing this picture anywhere in mine.

And if you read carefully, you'll see that the photo was chosen to illustrate the collaborative nature of Lennon and McCartney.

first day of senior year, mclennon in the english textbook???

Part of the reason that Republicans are so desperately acting like they will never lose again is because they are deeply terrified that this is their last real chance to win. The big orange dipshit came in and gutted the party of everyone who wasn't a loyalist, which left it full of nasty little gremlins who have gaping voids where charisma and human decency is supposed to go.

They still hold a lot of power, but if we stop them this year the next presidential election may not be the Most Important One Of Your Life™, that's not a guarantee or anything, but if they don't win here and now their future looks grim, this dipshit is the only guy they have left and he's extremely diminished and has his brains leaking out of his ears at this point. We can beat him into the ground.

So that's what we're gonna fucking do. We're gonna break these fucking fash. They will crash upon us and we're gonna break their fucking necks. When they come for us they will lose because they're fucking losers and we have each other's backs which is something they fundamentally are incapable of comprehending.

It is imperative to me that Bill and Stan do torrid Duchess Approves roleplay and argue about character motivations

The Biblically Accurate Trio in TLT

[mischievous-thunder]

From merely existing in two separate universes all the while trying their hardest every single day to mend the broken pieces of themselves

to finding someone who's willing to sacrifice himself to make sure the other person gets all the love and happiness of the world, to finding someone to go home to, to finally having the family of their dreams materialised, Wade and Logan's paths merged into one. It's but a new beginning.

Nothing really clicked prior to them meeting each other because their soulmates didn't even exist in their respective universes. Everything starts falling into place when their fate brings them together. They are each other's anchor beings.

penelope really said how dare you imagine a world where i don't love you. how fucking dare you. every day that you are not here is torture to me. every moment spent without you is like missing a piece of myself. how. fucking. dare you. pick up our immovable fucking wedding bed until you learn some respect
