i recently got a bunch of old college level math/physics textbooks from ~1910-~1940. How useful are they? could i read them and gain any relevant/useful knowledge or is it all outdated? i know technically yes the books are outdated but are the concepts flawed because of their age?

From an evolution stand point, race mixing is the best way to create stronger offsprings. Throughout the history animals with narrow gene pool became weaker and weaker through the generations and eventually went extinct, that's also why incest is bad because you are more lean into having a weak unhealthy child. Alright time for racist pieces of shits to come in

I have always had two big sensory problems - visual snow, and tinnitus. Tinnitus is far more widely known, but visual snow occasionally comes hand in hand with it. Visual snow, for me, has been a soft TV static flashing over everything, barely noticeable unless it's dark or my eyes are closed.

Then, when I was 16, I took a 5g dose of mushrooms. My tinnitus changed permanently from a dull monotonous ring to a pitch that worbles in pitch in each ear, sometimes it sounds like 5th notes, and my visual snow changed from a dull TV static to colors, shapes, patterns, flashing constantly over everything, behind my eyes and inside my head. It is especially annoying when I'm trying to sleep.

If mushrooms changed two of my most important senses to drastically, what other senses did it alter? How was my brain physically changed?

Why do I feel like I was so much smarter when I was 12 years old?

It is as if it were that at that age my cognitive abilities were fully and completely lucid, I had a direction and a good perspective regarding the future; at present only uncertainty, dissatisfaction, self-hatred and a constant state of mental fog reign.

If we can't detect any curvature in the universe does that mean it's infinite? Why aren't we sure yet?

So this might be a dumb question; but, how is it physically possible to produce this much of a specific chemical compound for use on a world-wide scale? In my chemistry labs a much less complex chemical synthesis would take hours at a time.
