do i have to know kpop to work with this equation?

why is there so much math hate in the world. It is 9 am in the morning and I (math major) do not need to hear you *loudly* discussing why you think that one semester of calculus is all you need and why it’s stupid for a school to teach more than two. Outside a theater class.

normal math major things: take two heavily proof based classes with weekly homework due the same day of the week (Wednesday). then complain about it. then call the same proof that you've been agonizing over for days "super fun, actually"

Topics of my classes this semester, as ranked by the likleyhood I use that information to write fanfic:

0) Portuguese. I write city spies fanfic and I would love to write more Rio fic

1) Number Theory. Applicable to city spies fic about Monty and probably useful in all spy related or mirrorverse fics wherein I use codes and encryption

2) Historical costume and dress. Self explanatory mostly (historical fanfic aus).

3) Analysis. I don’t see writing about functions that much but perhaps another new magic system and therefore a fic to match?

Infinity) Glee club. (sorry irls but there is really no easy way to work that into a fic directly)

I need a shirt that shows the rsa cryptosystem but it’s got decryption key d=☕️, encryption key e=😭, message a=🔢 and encrypted message A=\Box

(tea decrypts numbers into finished proofs)
