Mathematics is the queen of sciences.

So are quadratic equations nobody ever goes back to after graduation.

Did you know that math is racist in America? Your queen is a mean bi*ch, according to African Americans, as she discriminates against "Blacks".

Aka "white privilege" if you know the suare root of 81....

History is not a waste of time. Keane from history or doom to repeat it.

Literally the first thing a professor taught us at Columbia, in our first year as history students, was that history is a very poor predictor of future events.

All history does, is track change over time. This can be just as important.

Today, he wouldn't tell you how to define a woman.

If he gave you the correct definition, he would be assaulted the same day and fired the next.

You don't know my professors. The type of people that taught my type of history, were as far from "woke" as Genghis Khan is from Greta Thunberg.

There are different types of history, and consequently different professors.

If you are a major in "Women's Studies" or "Decolonization" - you'll get the according professors. But if you study Gomulka-era Poland, you get people like my Polish professor, who gives exactly zero ***** about gender issues. If you study the Spanish Civil War, then you might get an Austrian professor who most suspected of fascist sympathies for Franco.

Different types of history.

Regradless of the subject, I ask "what's a woman" as a test question.

I did it recently at a local college and they pounced on me when I said that trans women are men and that "scientists' are grant prostitutes and deliver what the grantor wants.

Being retired is the ultimate in freedom of speech.

Ask Prof. Harkins. The subject was Space Exploration.

The place: Room 254 in Building J. Harper College, Palatine, IL.

It must have been a flying visit then, due to being here every waking hour

Sorry, my friend, history is always the same, solid as a rock, immovable, what changes are sharlatan interpreters

Neither I nor you nor anybody alive or death have the power to change what has been, even one event, that happened in the past.I don't control the past,
I am the king of today, and a lousy predictor of the future. Well, Jon is the exception; he is changing history ten different ways, in one post
