Get the Yogamug. An equivalent of asking “Could Donald J. Trump be nearing the last stage of his decade-long corrupt and criminal lifestyle after devilishly and successfully avoiding fines and jail sentences time and time again?”
How long could Trump’s “political persecution” be used as a legal excuse to exonerate him from being locked up? Did Trump have nine lives? Have bribes, crimes, and lies finally lost patience with him and his cronies? Has Heaven’s impatience taken hold of them?

Get the Did Trump Have Nine Lives?mug. The destination of choice for millionaires and billionaires from Indonesia, China, India, Europe, and the United States during the pandemic, because of the island state’s relative low infection, mortality, and crime rates, compared to the rest of the developed world, where white racism or supremacism, nativism, and xenophobia, often condoned by right-wing inept politicians, are at an all-time high.
More than a tax haven for the filthy rich from both the East and the West, Singapore is now a “corona sanctuary” for the wealthy and the celebrities escaping the ravages of the pandemic sweeping their countries, whose oft-ill-run health systems leave much to be desired.

Get the Singaporemug. When the ghosts of atheists, agnostics, or nominal believers who had their lives cut short by the pandemic on earth would still visit their place of worship every week or month to pray for themselves and their loved ones, while they are waiting in transit for the outcome of their eternal home.
Dave’s spirit, who was rekindled by blind faith, would show up on the first and fifteenth days at the temple to pray for the gods and goddesses of good health and prosperity to bless his siblings and schoolmates, and sometimes even for his bosses-turned-bullies.

Get the Blind Faithmug. When sharing useful, light-hearted, or creative math stuff to fellow math educators around the globe gives them an opportunity to know you and to recommend you to interested parties that might need someone with your expertise to meet their mathematical needs or wants.
In addition to performance currency (when you deliver upon a product above people’s expectations) and relationship currency (when you take the time to connect, engage, and get to know people in your milieu), you need math currency to make yourself an odd in a sea of evens.

Get the Math Currencymug. When math publishers resort to retrenching editors and shelving new manuscripts in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, thus shattering the dream of both novice and seasoned math writers.
In spite of financial assistance from the government to help businesses save jobs, a number of family-owned publishers worldwide are enacting scissors math measures on the pretext of preventing their companies from going under.

Get the Scissors Mathmug. A one-time vaccine, touted by dubious pharmaceutical companies, that allegedly helps boost someone’s mathematical brain, by activating their atrophied cerebral cells to think more logically, rationally, and critically—a jab that could shoot their IQ to no fewer than a dozen points.
Rogue doctors from China, India, and Nigeria are discretely or secretly promoting piccine shots to gullible villagers, when they come down to get their partially trialed Covid-19 jabs.
