So I was thinking about the whole elves-being-naturally-prettier-than-humans thing because that was always sort of weird to me when I FINALLY think I figured it out.
Humans used to know about the elves, and there are some things they still remember—hence myths about Atlantis and such. Reality is, humans and elves resembled each other in a lot of ways, but elves put themselves on a pedestal as better than every other species (that’s, like, canon, and better be addressed more fully at some point?) and that’s probably a part of the reasons humans “betrayed” the elves—they got sick of hearing that elves were better.
But it was just sort of implanted in their minds, though they weren’t fans of the idea, and elves didn’t go to great lengths to erase that idea from their minds. So humans remember myths and some things about elves, and Atlantis being the underwater city………and beauty standards.
It’s not that elves are naturally prettier than humans. It’s that human beauty standards are shaped around the natural looks of elves.
Thanks for coming to my ted talk

Sampo Koski was given a great scammer award that measured 11 in by 14 in. He decided to put matting around it, and put it in a nice frame. The matting was of uniform width and had a visual area of 116 square inches. What was the width of the matting?
Go on, Ratio, solve it. Use inches.
2 inches.

Exploring Sacred Geometry: Unlocking the Mysteries of Divine Proportions 🌸🔺🔵◻️
Hello darlings 🥰
Today, let's delve into the fascinating world of sacred geometry and unravel the profound secrets hidden within its intricate patterns. Sacred geometry is a universal language that transcends cultures and time, reflecting the inherent order and harmony of the cosmos. It offers a window into the interconnectedness of all things and provides a profound tool for spiritual growth and understanding. So, let's embark on a journey into the realm of sacred geometry together!
🌸 The Flower of Life:
At the heart of sacred geometry lies the Flower of Life, a mesmerizing pattern formed by overlapping circles. It is a symbol of creation and the interconnectedness of all living beings. Meditate upon its symmetrical beauty and allow its energy to awaken your connection to the divine.
🔺 The Power of Triangles:
Triangles hold immense power in sacred geometry. The equilateral triangle represents balance and harmony, while the upward-pointing triangle symbolizes fire, passion, and spiritual ascension. The downward-pointing triangle represents water, intuition, and the divine feminine. Incorporate triangles into your spiritual practice to tap into these energies.
🔵 The Magic of Circles:
Circles are ancient symbols of wholeness, unity, and eternity. They represent the cyclical nature of life and the infinite possibilities within the universe. Meditate upon circles, draw mandalas, or use circular objects in your rituals to connect with the energy of completeness and divine unity.
◻️ The Power of Squares:
Squares symbolize stability, structure, and the material realm. They represent the four elements—Earth, Air, Fire, and Water—and provide a foundation for manifesting desires. Work with squares in your sacred space or incorporate them into your crystal grids to establish a strong and stable energetic framework.
✨ The Golden Ratio:
The Golden Ratio, often represented by the number phi (Φ), is a mathematical proportion found abundantly in nature and art. It is a ratio believed to embody perfect harmony and beauty. Explore the Golden Ratio in nature, art, and architecture and contemplate its presence in the world around you.
🌳 Sacred Symbols:
Discover sacred symbols derived from sacred geometry, such as the Sri Yantra, Metatron's Cube, or the Tree of Life. These symbols are potent energetic tools that can be used for meditation, manifestation, and spiritual alignment. Study their meanings and explore how they resonate with your journey.
🔷 Crystal Grids and Mandalas:
Combine the power of sacred geometry with the energy of crystals by creating crystal grids or mandalas. Arrange crystals in sacred geometric patterns to amplify their energies and intentions. Draw mandalas inspired by sacred geometry to express your inner connection with the divine.
◻️ Sound and Sacred Geometry:
Explore the relationship between sound and sacred geometry. Discover the resonant frequencies associated with specific geometric shapes and how sound vibrations can harmonize and heal. Experiment with sound healing modalities, such as chanting, singing bowls, or tuning forks, to enhance your experience with sacred geometry.
✨ Meditation and Contemplation:
Engage in meditative practices centered around sacred geometry. Visualize geometric patterns, focus on specific shapes, or use sacred geometry artwork as a focal point for your meditation. Allow these visualizations to calm your mind, expand your consciousness, and deepen your spiritual connection.
Sacred geometry is a gateway to understanding the divine order that permeates the universe. It invites us to recognize the inherent beauty and interconnectedness of all things. Embrace the language of sacred geometry, and allow it to guide you on a transformative journey of self-discovery and spiritual growth.

I feel like Dr. Ratio is the type to grade everyone's exams entirely wrong regardless of answer because he expects you to argue with him and prove that your answer is right.

Cover of "Der Modulor" by Le Corbusier
(Ed.5, 1985)
Between 1942 and 1955 the architect Le Corbusier (1887–1965) developed a universal measuring system known as the "Modulor".
The Modulor represented an attempt to give architecture a mathematical order oriented to a human scale. Starting from the golden ratio and the proportions of the human body, Le Corbusier developed his doctrine for the proportions of construction. He started from an assumed standard size of the human body and marked three intervals related to each other in the proportion of the golden ratio.
Le Corbusier managed to combine the imperial measuring system based on the foot with the metric decimal system and at the same time to relate to human body measurements. As a result, he obtained a systematic planning basis for architecture and industrial products that gained worldwide currency and was applied by countless practitioners.

@luckquartzed said :
“Negative b, plus or minus, the square root of b squared… minus 4ac over 2a…” Aventurine flips through the textbook and scoffs. “This is what they teach kids in school? Man, I’m glad I never went. How come there’s nothing in here about voting, opening a credit account, buying a house or first aid? Who thought this belonged in public academics instead of specialized university?” He drops the book in the trash. “What a waste of 500 credits.”
“It’s all inductive anyways, can’t really prove anything, watch out for the giant teapot orbiting the sun. Also moons are all made of cheese.” Aven is just being an add at this point and he knows it.
“How come no matter what colour the liquid, the froth is always white?”
⸻ this was to be absolutely expected. though , it is not the fault of the avgin , but rather the education system and its failure to indicate applications relevant to the livelihoods of others. ❝ it is one aspect , but there are plenty of other topics that are covered within prescribed syllabi. ❞ he eyes the discarded purchase — identifying the precious publication being laid to waste.
still , his subsequent reasoning , borders absurdity. in fact , it is explicitly nonsensical. ❝ what you have a listed are essentials , no doubt , but you severely underestimate the capabilities of the quadratic formula. ❞ outstretched , he is thankful that the fallen text is not marred by assorted scraps , and for that , his retrieval follows. he dusts it then , to remedy its bruised state , before he passes it to its respective owner , both former and returned.
❝ it is a consolidation that allows the ability to solve the simplest type of polynomial equations that can be used to study complex systems within certain limits. they appear routinely in all facets of mathematics and if you do not appreciate this formula , you will surely struggle as you venture further into arithmetic problems. ❞ flipping open the educational tool , he exposes the strategist to the mediocre explanation across glossy pages. to assist his elaboration. ❝ what you fail to comprehend , is this concept , is applicable to countless conditions in everyday life , including your dice throws. ❞
and perhaps , one he employs when he faces these roulettes with the stoneheart. ❝ in its most basic form , it determines the area of figures — by expressing the area with a quadratic equation , we can seamlessly calculate this unknown. if we take this further , another example is a projectile : the place where it lands , the distance travelled and the time it takes to reach its vertex can be established. have you worked out its use yet ? ❞
raised brow curls , prompting the elite in a manner that spells ❛ this should be obvious ❜. and yet , the questions persist , coaxing a launch of spaced out sighs , but the doctor answers nevertheless. ❝ it proves plenty , gambler. i should assign you to not only completing this section in your book , that you must take greater care of , but i should also task you to understand its application in your daily conventions. ❞
finality falls in his next conviction , with piercing gaze to deter the director from bothering any longer. since , well , they both have more pressing matters to attend. ❝ to correct you , not all foam is white. however , in the case you speak of , the froth is white due to light refraction. since it is made of bubbles , which are pockets of air , light that enters must pass through a number of surfaces , which scatter it in different directions that produces this white colour. ❞
certainly , this must sate the liquidation specialist. though , if not , he has no more minutes left to spare.
