Do you know a LGBTQ+ high school student with an interest in math?
Send them this tweet ASAP so they can apply for our virtual "Camp” of Mathematical Queeries today. Applications are due tomorrow, and applying only takes 10 minutes.

To conclude today's campaign, we ask everyone to continue fighting for and supporting trans folks in these miserable times.
Attached is our statement on the recent anti-trans legislation passing in US states, though much of the same can be said in the UK and elsewhere.

"What is the value of 24÷4(8÷4) = ?"
The answer is zero: the value of this is zero. This has zero pedagogical, mathematical, or logical value.
Oh wait, it has value to people trying to assert superiority over other people.

Happy #AdaLovelaceDay! Born to Lord Byron and his “Princess of Parallelograms” Lady Byron, Ada is regarded as the first computer programmer, due to her work on Babbage’s Analytical Engine. A pioneer of #WomenInSTEM , she remains an inspiration to all mathematicians.

Since the discussion about whether 2 + 2 = 4 is making a brief comeback, here are five arguments, two in favour of the statement and two against.
1. 2 is the successor of 1, and addition is defined inductively by x + 0 = x and x + succ(y) = succ(x + y).

Mathematicians at all levels like to complain about textbooks.
Writing good expository works takes time away from research, limiting career development in current academia.
Now why would I put those two sentences in the same tweet? 🤔
