Get the pimug. When politicians and philosophers fail to agree whether the irrational number π subscribes to the liberal or woke ideology of the Democratic Party, or shares the conservative or puritan beliefs of the Republican Party (and maybe even the MAGA gospel of the Trumpublican cult).
Metamathematicians don’t think that π will ever conform to the biblical value of three, which is preached by some alt-right Christian nationalists, while far-left ethnomathematicians divine that π holds the secret to the workings of the universe. Is pi Democrat or Republican?

Get the « Oups pardon, je t’ai marché sur le piedmug. The many whys that promoted mathematicians and math educators (or even nonmath people like artists and creatives) to toy around with the number π for centuries, be it to prove a beautiful theorem, promote the constant in popular culture (art, fashion, perfume, cellphone, movie, and the like), collaborate as a community, challenge tradition, leave a mathematical legacy, or show their intelligence.
Like art and philosophy, pi mesmerizes both math and nonmath people in every corner of the globe. No wonder, those outside the pi community would often ask: What’s the point of pi?
