  • A circle inscribed in a square covers 79% of the square.

  • A ball inscribed in a cube fills 52% of the cube.
  • A 4-ball inscribed in a hypercube fills 31% of the hypercube.
  • A 5-ball inscribed in a 5-cube fills 16% of the 5-cube.

  • A 9-ball inscribed in a 9-cube fills it up less than 1% of the way, yet there’s no room to fit a second ball of the same size without intersecting the first.

⋮

  • In dimensions 23 and up, you can fit a little cube in the corner of the diagram, such that the cube has a larger volume than the ball!

That’s especially disconcerting because the 23-cube has 8,388,608 corners. Even if you inscribe the little red cubes in all eight million corners, your big cube will still be 99.5% empty space.

“calling someone ‘it’ is dehumanizing” well yeah it can be, but have you considered that it also doesn’t feel very nice to not have your pronouns respected?

"it's dehumanizing" tough shit, you're not the one who calls the shots on what makes other people feel safe an accepted. If there are pronouns that you're not comfortable using for a certain kind of person you are not a safe person to be around.

rain-droplet

it's only ever dehumanizing if they aren't someone's pronouns. it's dehumanizing to not treat others with the respect they deserve and that which you afford to others.

Before the song “UNDERTALE” was completed, it went through a completely different iteration. This version sounds a bit more sad, which I think would have been less effective.

It wasn’t until I heard a certain song that I was inspired to completely change the chords and guitar accompaniment. This new guitar accompaniment then served as the basis for “Memory,” so we have a lot to thank that inspiring song for.

That’s all of the unused songs. See you tomorrow for a brief retrospective on my past year.
