When speculating in cryptocurrencies and crypto assets is a perfect recipe to delayed or no retirement, bankruptcy, or even jail imprisonment, thanks to the greed, dishonesty, and irresponsibility of founders of both cryptocurrency exchanges and stablecoins.
Since the collapse of crypto exchange FTX, a number of retired folks dabbling in the crypto ecosystem and hoping to maximize their savings have gone from zero crypto to crypto zero.

Those who think they have the moral authority to take pictures of those who break the lockdown rules during the coronavirus crisis, then post them online to shame the culprits, and in some cases to drag them out of their homes to beat or kill them.
On religious or superstitious grounds, corona vigilantes around the world are taking the law into their own hands during the lockdowns to expose and shame the lawbreakers.

When more Trumpublican parents and patriots, who believed the 2020 election was stolen from ex-President Trump, are pushing their lawmakers to fine or revoke the licences of state bookstores that sell Singapore math textbooks and workbooks, and also to ban these oft-brain-unfriendly but wallet-friendly titles in local schools, because these foreign K–12 math publications are allegedly detrimental to the mental health of local math-anxious or low self-esteem students.
The MAGA-fication of Singapore math has failed to prevent tens of thousands of homeschoolers in red states every year from ordering value-for-money math titles from the “fine” city for their children, who’re often bored or unchallenged by their dear inch-deep, mile-wide thick colorful math textbooks.

Also known as the “Trump Old Party” (TOP). A far-right subgroup of the GOP, which may be likened to a political equivalent of Jehovah’s Witnesses. White nationalists who misuse Christianity to reach out to undecided or apathetic voters, by warning them to stay away from socialist or alt-left politicians who support abortion, same-sex marriages, illegal immigration, and multiculturalism.
Guesstimate how many ultra-MAGA patriots in red-pilled states who just hate being called “Trump’s Witnesses.”

When math authors or publishers deliberately or inadvertently use religious, satanic, or New Age symbols, icons, or logos, made up of geometric shapes, in their books to bewitch schoolchildren into the occultic or demonic world.
A grade two Chinese title was being recalled because it arguably contains a “woke geometry” item—the publisher has since apologized to its readers for depicting a bloody-looking pentagram, whereby kids are required to identify all geometric shapes that make up the “satanic symbol.”

When theomaticians and philosophers couldn’t see eye to eye based on the number π’s oft-conflicting or mixed interactions with other numbers or constants whether her allegiance is with the Vatican or with the Church of England.
Does π subscribe to the Pope’s or to the Archbishop of Canterbury’s theomatical teachings on how rational and irrational numbers ought to behave themselves in private and in public? Is pi Catholic or Protestant?

Out-of-print math titles whose covers, contents, or creators the present generation could still remember, because when they were students, teachers, or parents, these wallet-friendly, brain-unfriendly books had positively impacted their mathematical learning or teaching, which were unsurprisingly bestsellers of their day.
Singapore’s zombie math titles of yesteryear like Fabian Ng’s “Process Skills in Problem Solving,” Dr Y H Leong’s “Challenging Problems in Mathematics,” and K C Yan’s “Mathematical Quickies & Trickies” had not only differentiated themselves from the sea of canned drill-and-kill titles, but they have since become an integral part of the local math education culture.
