i hate that we all got so frightened about math. it's genuinely fun to learn how it works when you're not being forced to in a school setting, which was just a fucking nightmare for no reason. i had this former navy DI lady teacher in gifted kid algebra [so already a year ahead] yell at me for asking questions; she wasn't going to 'hold my hand' thru the homework, which was quite literally her fucking job
It's not about being frightened, it's just that i know only a handful (mostly esoteric) languages with worse syntax.
