Another day, another case of satire becoming reality.
In a bold departure from grooming kindergarten children, the author of Math in Drag, proselytizing drag queen Kyne Santos, spoke to his/her fans as a recent guest of MIT’s LGBTQ+ services.
“Math, just like drag, can be a joyful dance that delights in applying rules while elegantly pushing boundaries.”
Now that simply being a normal person who happens to be homosexual is no longer pushing any boundaries, it’s important to take the fine art of queering to the next level. And since the social sciences have already been deeply queered, math represents the next frontier.
In Math in Drag, Kyne explains concepts such as the nature of infinity and statistics while connecting them with math history and her personal experience with drag. For example, she introduces significant constants such as zero, pi, and the imaginary number i as “celebrity numbers,” giving them personality and intrigue. Profound, huh?
In case you think this is all just fun and games, the revolution doesn’t stop there. “Without breaking laws, we wouldn’t be achieving the liberation of millions of marginalized people across the world,” Kyne says.
Kyne’s next stop is an appearance in Gaza as a special guest of Queers for Palestine. There she will help local freedom fighters solve ballistic trajectory equations before being shot out of a cannon.
