@keimorisue Haha, Thanks Kei. Its a really strange method that's not very convenient IRL but its still fascinating in my opinion. Perhaps you can find an interesting use for it. 🙂

A (potentially undiscovered?) way to find Nth grid references via reflection. I'm honestly not sure If it's actually a new method or just one that's barely documented elsewhere, but I wanted to share it nonetheless. 🙂 1/3

From one uncut hexagon.

I suppose now is also as good a time as ever to also announce I'll be moving to Japan closer to the end of the month! My Japanese isn't very great right now but I will study hard! よろしくお願いします

There's an infinite number of pairs of reflected slopes and an infinite number of reflecting slopes. The reality is the majority of them aren't useful in a real-world scenario. Often the paired slope is just as unusual as the original one you may be trying to find. 3/3

[Soren Grinsfelder @MythWizard]

basically, what it boils down to is when you have 3 angles sharing a point. if the largest angle + the smallest angle = 2x the middle angle, then the middle angle is bisecting the others and can be used to reflect either of them. 2/3

@debaoki @mangasplaining @zdarsky I highly recommend checking out "Hana-chan and the Shape of the World" from @yenpress
It's an almost all-ages (some images that may be a bit scary for very young ones.) oneshot with amazing art. Unfortunately, The book was somewhat overlooked when it came out back in 2021.
