Son, we live in a world of mathematical principles, and those principles have to be understood by men who use real numbers. Who's gonna do it. You? You Professor Wildberger? Real numbers have a purpose greater than you can POSSIBLY fathom. You weep for John Gabriel and you curse real numbers. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not grasping, that the use of real numbers, while confounding, PROBABLY saves time from vapid toiling. And their existence, while grotesque, and incomprehensible to you, saves time.

You don't want to ignore real numbers because deep down in places you don't talk about at conferences, you WANT infinite precision, you NEED infinite precision.

We use concepts like "infinity," "irrationality," "convergence." We use these concepts to understand the universe. You use them as fodder for your skepticism.

I have neither the time, nor the inclination to explain myself to a foundationalist who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom real numbers and limits provide and then QUESTIONS THE MANNER IN WHICH THEY PROVIDE IT. I would rather you just said THANK YOU, and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you grab a Cauchy sequence, and take its limit. Either way, I don't give a DAMN, WHAT YOU THINK YOU ARE ENTITLED TO

I cant stop talking with myself
Like, there is endless monologe in my head that i cant control. Even while typing this i hear my inner monologe. Sometimes when there is no one around me and i watch or think something i can start talking like i would be in some dibate or i would explain something to someone. I really cant control it. Sometimes i start to think im shizo.
About songs i dont think its weird but everytime i listen song i try to listen in every word artist sing or some parts in song where you need to listen really carefully on loud volume.
Mostly i cant go sleep without anything playing in background (asmr or music) because if i try to sleep in silence it feels like my thought get louder and more intense that i can fall asleep.
Sometimes when im "sleeping" (just laying in bed for 3 hours) i can get in half sleep state or year ago i had problem that almost everytime when i was in silence at night i started to hear not my voice. Those where voices of my family members, my friend etc. Those werent hallucination, its like i still listen to my endless monologe and then i start to hear voices. They were commenting my thoughts. like, if i would think "tomorrow i will need to wake up earlier" and then lets say voice of my friend would say "nah you will oversleep" or that type o shit. if i answered them they usualy replied to me. Listen man, i have visited doctors and only thing i have heard is "go sleep earlier" FUCK THAT SHIT. So yeah i basically talk in my head 24/7 and when im trying to stop talking in my head i start to hear those voices. Two years ago i forgot concept of "how to fall asleep" i was always falling asleep because i was to tierd to keep moving. in that time i started to have suicidal thoughts. Closest to sleeping i could get was through meditation when after meditating for like 3-5 hours i would be in half-sleep state. For me it was hell. I wanted to sleep like normal person but i couldnt. i would like to keep writing but sorry to much stuff

🧵 THE PUPIL IS THE GATEWAY

Anonymous No. 16303430

I've been tripping on LSD for like 9 hours, and I just started looking into my own eyes, very focused on the pupils. I just couldn't get over how absolutely pitch dark they are, bright lights right into my pupils and they remain PITCH BLACK, my blue iris with marvelous soft patterns crawling into the eternal dark hole in the center. Or did these light blue patterns blow out of this dark hole after consuming all the light?

I spent the next hours extremely focused looking at microscopic footage of the iris and pupils. I now can not get over how every person essentially has two black holes going into eternal darkness, and it's where they view the world from, this little fucking completely dark hole, that swallows all light going its way, never lighting up, JUST EATING EVERYTHING and remaining pitch black.

When someone goes blind, the ability of this black hole to swallow light has gone fucked, and now he can't see shit.

The world is not even real, the real you is in this dark hole, spectating the world, swallowing all light. And I have gone crazy

🧵 How can male gorillas be so muscular?

Anonymous No. 16303138

How can male gorillas be so muscular if all they eat is fruits and leaves?

Male gorillas are incredibly muscular despite having a diet primarily consisting of fruits and leaves due to several factors:
Genetics: Gorillas have evolved over millions of years to have a naturally muscular build. Their genetic makeup allows them to develop and maintain large muscles even without consuming large amounts of protein typical in a human muscle-building diet.
Caloric Intake: Gorillas consume large quantities of food each day—up to 18 kg. This high caloric intake provides the necessary energy for their bodies to maintain muscle mass.
Gut Microbiome: Gorillas have a complex gut microbiome that helps them efficiently break down and ferment the fibrous plant material they consume. This fermentation process produces short-chain fatty acids, which are an additional energy source and aid in maintaining their muscular physique.
Activity Levels: Gorillas are very active animals. Their daily activities involve climbing, foraging, and moving through their habitat, which helps in building and maintaining muscle mass. The constant use of their muscles in these activities ensures they remain strong and developed.
Natural Protein Sources: Although their diet is primarily fruits and leaves, gorillas do consume some protein from sources like insects, grubs, and small invertebrates found within their foraged food. Additionally, many plants contain some protein, which contributes to their overall intake.
Efficient Metabolism: Gorillas have a highly efficient metabolism that allows them to make the most out of the nutrients they consume. Their bodies are adept at converting the available nutrients into muscle mass and energy.
These factors combined allow male gorillas to develop and maintain their impressive muscular physiques on a plant-based diet.
