math
hey math is cool right?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincar%C3%A9_disk_model
look at this stuff
the "Poincare disk model". I confess I'm not up on the kinda abstract math needed to understand this completely
but it shows how "infinite" plane geometry, Euclidean geometry, can be basically mimicked inside a limited area. inside a single circle
assistance request, discussion of shitty living situations
So, uh, we desperately need help. There's a lot of stuff going on and I figure I'll go over it:
First, @pillowcat and I are currently living in a *shit* situation. It's a house that got like 1/10th of the way through a remodel and then abandoned, the toilet barely works, the hot water barely works, the floors are nasty. We can barely afford to eat b/c I'm disabled and haven't managed to get on disability yet, and Tess is having trouble job hunting. And it's REALLY hard for me to get medical supplies down here. We really, really want to get out of this situation and out of this state but we need enough money to eat and on top of it some padding to allow Tess to go job hunt in the area we want to move to.
Secondly, my GFs, @Tryn and @Siruco are currently in the process of getting kicked out of their house. They have nowhere to go besides to a similarly shitty situation that'd put them well away from all of their support systems and any chance of getting back out. So we want to get them in with us in a better situation, but first Tess and I have to be in a good enough situation to help that happen. Please, please help. paypal.me/nautilee every lil bit helps, and please please boost this around. We're all pretty desperate.

request for financial help, boosts ok
Between moving and not being able to work because I'm moving, I'm wiped out - and the move isn't even done yet!
If you can help out, either financially or by boosting, I'd really appreciate it. 💜

trying to interrupt trans sui attempt in UK
This is a repost -- I deleted the original because Nataly thought she heard the ambulance, but it seems to have been a false alarm.
Is there anyone in the UK who can actually call emergency services?
An online friend of @juniper 's has apparently ODed and may not make it, although she was conscious and able to text last I knew.
Like me, Juniper has intense phone phobia, so has had to ask other people to contact emergency services -- which has been done, but it's been over an hour now and no sign of an ambulance.
The suicide note, which Juniper only came across by sheer luck: https://www.reddit.com/r/transgenderUK/comments/ccdrln/bye/etn1imu/
I have street address for the... attemptee?... but no phone number.
Please contact either Juniper or myself if you need more information -- but note that I may not be reachable for much longer tonight.
Thanks.
(I am not good at adulting in this kind of situation...)
a word to Kaylin about Mona Drafter
look @KaylinEvergreen my mom might be a bit...*easy*, but she is NOT "the Whorse of Babylon", stop embarrassing me >:=(
Stop misusing terms to garner sympathy. Get it TOGETHER.
Some of yall really will abuse the terms abuse, toxic, stalking, fascist, and victim-blaming truly to manipulate people and it is terrible.
