Play 5D chess today!
The only chess game (probably) that has you playing over spatial, temporal, and parallel dimensions at once!
(I don't understand what this even is)

Because of Russell's Paradox, mathematicians realised that unrestricted comprehension is bad and so set about designing systems where the bad thing just couldn't be defined. But there is another, kinda bonkers way: you can weaken your logic so that \(R \Leftrightarrow \neg R\) does not imply a contradiction.
In order to derive a contradiction you first use R once, this implies not R, and that *together with R* gives you a contradiction (similarly if you start with not R). But since R is being used twice, you would avoid this inconsistency in a system based on the !-free fragment of linear logic.
(This curiosity was found in Braüner's introduction to linear logic https://www.brics.dk/LS/96/6/BRICS-LS-96-6.pdf)

Today's "You have got to be fucking kidding me" moment:
I don't claim to be an expert in medicine, the law, or autism, but I feel pretty confident that the answer isn't just "No", but #FuckNo.

Just finished making this icon with my preferred contact links as of january 2021. it's more compact than I'd like but I'm trying to link the main ones for viewers too unmotivated to actually go to www.toplesstopics.org/contact for the direct links. I'm debating posting this to instagram and facebook as well, even though they've started banning even my only text only posts as "sexual solicitation" and "hatespeech" #lolwut
