Are numbers a real, tangible part of nature or did we just invent them?  How about the dude that came along and tried to get everyone to buy into his new number “zero” (NOT Jamie Thomas lol! He was Indian or something).  And why is pi some fucked up whacky long number and not a nice round number like 2 or 5?  It’s like God is giving us the middle finger thru ratios bro

Pi is fucking mystical to think about. Our strongest supercomputers have calculated it to 22 trillion digits, with no end in sight - it is truly infinite. A reminder that for all our hubris, we humans and our feeble methods of thinking are still fundamentally incapable of truly understanding the universe

Numbers were invented by Jesus in the book of Matthew, tho

It’s just weird how most other geometric shapes have really simple, easy equations to describe them, but a circle, which looks like it should also be really simple, is described using that insane, seemingly unknowable number.  But yes, agree on JC in book of M.
When nothing in society deserves respect, we should fashion for ourselves in solitude new silent loyalties.

its not a long number

that implies it would end at some point

as far as we know its endless, infinite.
