#but an 18c scientist/mathematician will spew nonsense and I'll be like ''dawg theyre so smart 😩 guess i'll take your word for it''

I love how I try to read Newton and it's just:

And then I read Émilie's translation/interpretation which is supposed to make it more accessible, and it's:

And then I have the dawning realization that I just do not understand physics

#some 18c politician/philosopher/artist will spew some nonsense and I'll be like ''what a moron. that dont make sense.'' #but an 18c scientist/mathematician will spew nonsense and I'll be like ''dawg theyre so smart 😩 guess i'll take your word for it'' #I know my place #JJ will be like 'when Plato said...' and I'll be right there like 'fucking dumbass. that is NOT what Plato meant. youre missing the CONTEXT' #but Émilie will name drop people I ain't ever heard of and make some wild judgement on their work and im like ''sure. sounds good 👍''
