feels like i’m getting away with something by talking about math on here. like it’s... not fair to everyone else somehow? 🤔 something i don’t like about the idea of having a conversation “in public” with a potentially really high barrier to entry
Conversation
one of the nice things about talking about feelings and childhoods and shit is literally everyone has feelings and literally everyone had a childhood, they’re universal
meanwhile when it comes to math some of you are / were grad students and some of you have math anxiety 😔

there’s something i like about the idea of bringing to twitter this more technical side of myself i’ve been leaving out and/but also i don’t wanna make people feel excluded or inadequate if i don’t have to. hmm. thoughts?

Post about it! I think people playing it small because someone else might feel bad is a approximately force for evil in the world?

Not that you’d be being evil or anything. And I definitely don’t always follow my own advice.
But... I don’t know I feel quite strongly about something here.
And no one is obligated to read your twitter feed!

Oh also, just as an intuition pump, I’d be curious what comes up for you if you imagine a woman feeling the way you described in your tweet (and expressing it)
