oh sure blame the guy whose fault it is

today at the grocery store a man asked if I knew where the broccoli was and I said damn no I haven't seen it, and he said I need broccoli I can't find the broccoli, and I said I don't know where it is either but I'll keep my eye out, and then we both went our separate ways. when I passed him again I asked if he found the broccoli and he said no!! I still can't find the broccoli!! and I said oh no. maybe there isn't any. maybe they're all out. and we commiserated. but then later as I was walking around in circles like a dazed housefly looking for hot sauce I saw a secret additional vegetable bay behind the magazines and there was the broccoli!! but by then I couldn't see the man any more. he must have left, imagining there to be no broccoli. perhaps because I suggested they were all out. I reflected upon my part in the tragedy. I should have told him not to give up, to keep looking, to search every corner and perhaps he would find his prize behind the magazines. but it was too late. my defeatism had instilled the certainty of failure in him, even though I was just as ignorant of the truth as he. and I did not buy the broccoli because I don't like it very much.

Fibonacci: Hmm... I sure wish there was a way to mathematically represent an empty quantity.

The simple yet useful Arabic numeral:

everyone always says that the word Q is too early in the alphabet and should be further back with all the "weirdo"s and "freak"s. but take a look at this -> p q. They're twin brothers. Would you seperate twin brothers? Just because one is a little artistic?

when people say sea creatures are aliens that pisses me right off. no man that’s your cousin. usually not even that far back. that thing’s still an animal. it’s not even like, a plant or a fungus or anything 90% of the time. and never a 🦠. thats cousin octopus. auntie fish. uncle sea cucumber. you know them.

“But I didn’t and still don’t like making a cult of women’s knowledge, preening ourselves on knowing things men don’t know, women’s deep irrational wisdom, women’s instinctive knowledge of Nature, and so on. All that all too often merely reinforces the masculinist idea of women as primitive and inferior – women’s knowledge as elementary, primitive, always down below at the dark roots, while men get to cultivate and own the flowers and crops that come up into the light. But why should women keep talking baby talk while men get to grow up? Why should women feel blindly while men get to think?”
