Discovered. Just like any Scientific law math was created when the universe was. And math is innate in many plant and animal species not just us humans.
@Lostpoet I disagree. The system for finding said (discovered) values was in fact invented based on our numbering system. It’s actually pretty debated, however. 🦋
@Lostpoet Laws are different than systems (such as Math.) Laws just are, with said values, whereas systems allow for manipulation of values (such as Math.) Math was definitely invented but the values discovered (such as the circumference of a circle) were discovered via the invented system of our mathematics.

@JustGoneNow 🤓nerd

Lol.(jk)
@Lostpoet Busted. I’m a total fucking geek. *giggles* Was a drama, music nerd too. Total Emo before Emo was cool. Listening to The Cure, The Smith’s, and Tears For Fears. Made time to almost get kicked out my Senior year, though. My parents were so pissed.
@Lostpoet I’ve always been a bit of an activist. 🤷‍♀️

@JustGoneNow what about Patti Smith? I think my ignorance is the only thing keeping me sane right now because the world if f*ed.

I bet your parents are really smart too or atleast your grandparents were. I still think that we are in a mathematical simulation. 14 billion years and we are the best evolution has come up with? Highly unlikely.
@Lostpoet Patty Smith is decent. I’m more a Joan Jett and Lita Ford from the Runaways and Pat Benatar type of girl to be honest.
@Lostpoet Yeah. Everybody in my family’s pretty smart. I’m actually the dumbest of us all, probably. lol

@JustGoneNow I doubt it.
@Lostpoet They’re really smart, though. Like so smart I don’t always understand them.
