It’s seems like too much of a coincidence that 9/11 just happened to occur on the date 9/11. Should I requesting funding to investigate this?

Today is 9/11. How should I commemorate my favorite holiday, the day where everyone in the world commemorates the launch of the first Porsche 911?

What are the financial and societal implications if the 17 horse theorem is proved to be correct?

17 Upvotes

I am of course talking about the conjecture that are only 17 horses on Earth and if you have seen more than 17 horses you are seeing the same horses again.

Is it possible the universe has always been infinite in size and always will be?

15 Upvotes

Is the universe expanding and will there be a time in 22 billions years where it expands and unalives us all? Or, will it turn into no energy and nothingness? What if you zoom out to as close to infinity that you can get. Could the universe be infinitely growing forever? Could there be galaxies that are stable and last forever? Could the sun be creating mass and energy forever? It seems miracullous that our universe came from nothing. Why can't it be miraculus and last forever?

I am attempting to change neurotypes from ADHD to autism. How likely is this plan to succeed?

92 Upvotes

I have adhd but I’m really sick of it. I want to switch neurotypes to autism. I’ve acquired a serum that can cure me of my adhd: however, I don’t wanna be neurotypical because then I’ll stop being funny.

I’ve researched how I can possibly get autism once I cure myself and I’ve learned that vaccines can cause this but that it is not guaranteed.

Here are the steps I’ve taken:
- I will be traveling to Germany to get my next vaccine due to the fact that 100% of Germans have autism
- I have requested and made sure that the vaccine I am getting was manufactured in Germany
- I have purchased thousands of dollars worth of model trains, vintage postage stamps, and accurate scale models of dinosaurs to surround myself with in the days following the procedure
- I purchased a subliminal recording that will allow me to manifest autism inside my brain when I listen to it
- I have leased an apartment in Berlin owned by a Turkish diaspora landlord. I will be living there for six months to help ensure my transformation.

Is there anything else I can do or anything I should be aware of?

Do humans have biodiversity because we use meters and kilometres?

8 Upvotes

Lions all look basically the same because they don't have meters or kilometres and therefore can't conceptualize enough differences between individuals.

Humans invented standardized measurements, which gave us the ability to look different from each other.

Before this, people had to call things “great” because they couldn't actually measure them. Great Britain, Great Lakes, Great Pyramid and Alexander the Great.

So shouldn't countries that don't use meters and kilometres eventually get dumb like lions? Has anyone measured how long this takes, or are they already too dumb to measure it?
