    Your imagination is limited to what you can express in words. Many cultures have biases in their language towards or away from certain concepts. Consider how the eskimos have 5 words for snow or the prudish american landscape had no word for “sex” for most of its history. Instead you had to say things like “lay with someone” and such. This is to bias your thought away from undesirable concepts.

      Well jokes on them because I frequently think about things that I then struggle to articulate and its very frustrating! Though more seriously I wouldn’t say language is a hard limit because otherwise we would never need to come up with new words in the first place.

      Good thing you didn’t say circle, that would have no point.

        I think you’ll find that…

        Hold on, let me get my glasses. 🤓

        Actually, I think you’ll find that a circle, just like a square, has uncountably infinitely many points!

    Woah wait I swear there’s a Futurama episode where the cops are interrupted while attempting to arrest a giraffe pimp. Is that a thing or am I going nuts?

    I imagined someone pimping giraffes. Which would usually be studs. Someone hauling an open top trailer with a long neck protruding through its slats. Someone transporting their virile, strong, sexy, giraffe to its next impregnation. Someone taking the time to verify their studs’ sperm counts at least weekly. Someone to verify that everything is in working order before the next appointment. Yeah, that’s what I imagined

        Also think of your jaw … how do you rest it? … do you let it droop and fall to relax your jaw muscles? … or do you tighten up your mouth to close your mouth? … is the resting position of our jaw to hold your teeth close? or let your jaw fall?

          i think the middle way of letting the mouth slightly open might be best? to get oxygen in the mouth room. creates fresh air and such.

      If you carefully pay attention your breath also has it’s own particular scent. The aroma of what the inside of your lungs smell like.

      Your brain just finely tuned your mouth and your nose to filter out that particular smell so as not to bother you.
