Hitting the nail on the head with this take
this is a good thread but I might actually take it further -- I don't think manosphere shit is actually about getting laid, I think it's literally about male loneliness, by which I mean, men addressing their loneliness via homosocial bonding through misogyny
at that point, you often see them let go of their pretensions towards being a Player and just go full Handmaiden's Tale. It's where they always were, but they deluded themselves into thinking it could be fun and frivolous

I do think we have to contend with the fact that a not insubstantial population of zionist jews in the US are absolutely going whole hog on fascism if that's what it takes to enact their agenda. Something to think about for Passover

destroying the liberal democratic values that made america a haven for jews for much of the last century does not make american jews safe and these nazis all know it but they're going to keep harping on it til you all associate us with the loss of your freedom
Leavitt: "Federal funding will be withheld until these universities comply with the administration's demands to keep Jewish American students on their college campuses safe, and to eradicate antisemitism and hate speech from their campuses."

I think it's very neat that there's no obvious finite dimensional analogue of spectral geometry of Laplacians for symplectic manifolds. Instead you need to consider symplectic spinor bundles over M, which are necessarily infinite dimensional:

every time I do a problem for AG about local theory, I spend days overthinking it before remembering local problems are commutative algebra. Then I rewrite the problem as commutative algebra and remember I don't know commutative algebra 👍

Let F : Vec -> Vec be a smooth functor (think F(V) = det V or V* tensor V*). Then by passing through the functor, we have an action of GL(V) on F(V). We call a nonzero element v in F(V) a "linear structure on V". Let G_v = Stab(v), i.e. basis changes of V that preserve v.
