Give me a math problem. Requirement is that it has to be doable in a post, you know how I sometimes make posts kind of like going through the steps of a math thing stream of consciousness as I do them? It has to be one where that's possible not too fucked up of one like the Goldbach Conjecture or a really big integral. Well anyway if you do this I may or may not solve it.

A fun question that was posed to me is "is there a topology with a compact subset that is not closed?".

Another one is "prove that a monotonous function on a closed interval has at most countably many discontinuity points"

I don't know how standard these are, I just think they're neat.

Oooh I like these. I won't provide full solutions, but:

holy shit the dashboard unfucker is such a lifesaver. i also just find it such a funny marriage of tumblr's bad web design and the tumblr userbase's resistance to change is that the response to any new update is 'okay, let's figure out how we put it back'

like a week after i made this post, tumblr staff decided to put an evil clown on everyone's dashboard

I love opening up this website first thing like the morning paper and immediately seeing multiple posts like "how to get rid of the evil clown on the dashboard". like oh is this what we're doing today

One fun fact about me is that there is a pit in the forest. It is a part of me. I do not know where my reflection ends and I begin and I am so entwined with its murky waters I have begun to wonder if I am human at all, or if I am some creation of mud and wood given life against its will. When I die look for me in the pit. I will be in there, watching you.

Visited the pit again today. The waters gone. There’s a dead bird at the bottom of it. I don’t know what this means.

I keep accidentally ending up at the pit. Like I’ll tell myself I’m not going to go to the pit and then I go to the pit. Or I get lost on the trail and end up at the pit. I’m having fucking dreams about the pit. What is with me and this pit.

Things NOBODY told me about being an adult that I wish they had:

  • When you get to the top of the river you're going to want to find a shallow stretch of riverbed with relatively calm water and sediment pieces that are gravel sized, not cobble, sand or mud. This is critical; test it with your nose if you're not sure! when you have this, you're going to want to flip on your side and slap the gravel as hard as you can with your tail to dislodge it; you're gonna want to alternate between digging the spot out and doing some more slapping until you've got a nice little cone shaped depression for the eggs.
