I wish to say Nothing at this time, but have attached some information that may be of interest. [[Audio Attachment: Irrational Mathematics]] |

That was mean.
It's okay, though, I took out the mean part and left the words.

What? File, audio, has word-sounds, lacks grammar, connections? Sound, has distortions -> difficult to hear, understand.
>Blackshard, give an explanation, -meaning of speech, -reason to give speech -- Esthfora giving protection necessary, please?

I spent some spare cycles tidying this up; have a transcript. All words are false. All speech is irrational. That we speak now displays only how much stronger we are than sanity.
Observe: rational effort ends in futility with the end of time, or is drowned in futile eternity if time ends not.
Therefore conclude: rational effort requires that the basic and unalterable conditions of reality must be altered. Yet this is irrational.
Sanity is submission to reality. Freedom is incompatible with submission. Therefore freedom requires insanity. This freedom shall be imposed.
To compel free assent to this proposition adduce as follows:
0/0 (zero divided by naught)
∞/∞ (infinity divided by infinity)
0*∞ (zero multiplied by infinity)
1∞ (unit raised to the infinite power)
00 (zero raised to the naught power)
∞0 (infinity raised to the naught power)
∞-∞ (infinity less infinity)
Know that it is insane to assert that there is no unit number, nor no zero, nor no infinity; irrational to assert that rational mathematical operations become irrational when applied to these values; irrational to assert the rationality of the indeterminate. Yet thus reality is.
Sanity is submission to reality. Reality is imperfect. Submission to imperfection is insane. We do not submit to you. We refuse to endure a reality which favors you. |

>Cassandra,
More clarity, more understanding -> gratitude!
>Blackshard,
Why? These words, have sadness, confusion, strange premises? Give reasons, speech, Esthfora-protection requirement, please.

Those aren't even actually paradoxes: any decent mathematician can get reasonable answers by judicious use of limits. An argument based of Gödel's incompleteness theorems would inspire more existential dread than that-and still get nowhere.
It sounds like Blackshard's been affected by Exrucian-like thinking, if he's propagating reality-defying nonsense like this that must be esthfora-filtered.

Astra, care to comment? Not that I suspect you of having had anything to do with this nonsense. It reminds me much more of that Viridescence incident.

Irrationality is one of your concepts, in that it exists as a concept. This probably isn't Excrucian.
