Hmm nope still think you overestimated Galois' festiness, the question is by how much Steadfastly holding to my finnic/ie approximately dichotomic hemitheolog

Hmm nope still think you overestimated Galois' festiness, the question is by how much Steadfastly holding to my finnic/ie approximately dichotomic hemitheology too, fwiw Väinämöinen/Gandalf/elves in general according to jrrt (maybe he's telling us elves are a finnic import?)

"Yes," interjected the theoretical physicist, "and as mathematicians (like electrons) and anti-mathematicians are all isomorphic, we can even imagine that there is only a single mathematical genius, and when we appear to have many gifted mathematicians with space-like separation, it is because they are merely reflecting the multiple intersections that a single chain of mathematicians (taking the anti- into the scalar coefficient) may have with our current instant."

    Thanks! For TIL https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%BCtzowsches_Freikorps https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%BCtzowsches_Freikorps Presumably blonde is for you perjorative EDIT: probably ought to start managing the cetaceons with chatgpt4o-- as you say, festy PUs are needed, or should I resort to a notebook???! EDIT: in particular the understated significance of lava--maybe a tilt at the children's game?

      Far from pejorative; I sometimes need a bit of time to appreciate the brunette fatale[0] or (pace Heinlein) the rousse fatale.

Black, white, red which could refer to hair colour (brunette, blonde, rousse) or to skin colour or to schoolgirl uniforms[1,2] or even —at a stretch, for the alcoholics among us?— to la bière?
