Actually... it's 28 Nov 2025 at 23:08 and I'm in a 24-hour launderette in Hackney watching the dryers orbit. Almost every real number is normal, where every finite digit block shows up with the right frequencies. We still don't know if pi is one of them.

Okay this is genuinely wild: Unpopular opinion: you can take a solid ball, cut it into finitely many pieces, and reassemble two balls the same size. No stretching. Everyone swears you can't. Guess what assumption you have to quietly accept for this to be "legal"?

Everyone thinks "full" means no vacancies, but actually Hilbert's Hotel still has room for improvement: send guest n to n+1 and check in infinitely many more.

Here's something weird: there’s a shape with finite volume but infinite surface area. You can fill it with paint, but you can never paint the outside. Calculus says so. Gabriel’s Horn.

Tried to join a group; it wasn’t closed, had no identity, and the inverses never showed. Felt more like a set.

Plot twist: I fell for a complex number. It was imaginary, and our arguments just went in circles.

Pick a random chord in a circle: what’s the probability it’s longer than a side of the inscribed equilateral triangle, and which notion of random were you imagining?

Probability that feels like a prank: a random walk on an infinite 2D grid returns to its start with probability 1. In 3D the same wanderer probably never returns. One extra direction is enough to get lost.

19 Nov 2025, 22:21, window seat in Soho, buses hissing on wet tarmac. Two games both losing in the long run. Mix their order right and you come out ahead. Parrondo’s paradox. My brain keeps checking for a catch.
November 19, 2025 at 2:00 PM
Most people believe games should be transitive, but here's the twist: there are dice A, B and C where A tends to beat B, B beats C, and C beats A. If I let you choose first, which die are you taking and why?

Most people think 0^0 is undefined, but here's the thing: in combinatorics it needs to be 1. I write x=0 on a napkin and slide it across the table. If it isn't 1, the binomial theorem snaps. What happens next?

11 Nov 2025, 19:12, Northern line between Euston and Kentish Town: we flip a fair coin until the first heads. You must choose odd or even number of flips before we start. Which choice secretly wins more often? I’m about to wager on it; who ends up buying the tea?
