every day we stray further from the fifth light -_-

the cardinality of a set is the number of things in it.

some sets have infinite items in them such as the counting numbers (there's always a bigger fish dot jpeg). but not all infinities are equal some are larger.

equality: if we can map a 1:1 rule between items in two sets with infinite items they are said to be equal infinities.

greater: but if we can map all in one set to another and note that there are still items left over, the first set has more things in it so if the other set has infinity items in it, this collection must have an even larger set of items in it, a greater tier of infinite.

a common example in math classes is mapping items in the real number between 0 and 1 to the counting numbers (1,2,3,...) using the rule 1>1/1, 2>1/2, 3>1/3,... we can see (0 to 1) has a 1:1 mapping but there are still more items (for instance 1/1.5). this shows there are more items in the real number line from 0 to 1 than there is items in the counting numbers. though both are infinite one infinity is larger.

so the meme. it's asking you to imagine a collection items that has greater number than the counting number infinity, but less than the next tier of infinity, those in the real number line. something which is hard to imagine because if it were easy we would have plugged that infinity tier into our tiering system.

Crystal meth is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be higher education

He makes his position clear at 7:50 of that interview that he defers to climate scientists on the issue and continues to ask the writer "what can we do"? Which in my mind is all we can hope for in a politician.

It seems your referencing his suggested response at 8:30. But he then works off her response, that there is no clear path forward, which is inline with his previously stated position frankly.

As the number of margins goes toward infinity: no u

Certainly agree on the veto. But I feel like this is a perfect chance to split the opposition. Not going to pretend how that political ammunition would best be used, but it seems endless.

Halloween is an ancient earth tradition. For one day children in an earth colony, America, would scream "trick or treat" to garnish local favor.

If we feed in enough images of trump from videos, bet one will say he's not a citizen.

Porn is not the multiverse, it is simply our finite attempt to understand it
