Leibniz Didn't Need No Apple!

The ultimate mathematical flex! While Newton was allegedly inspired by a falling apple to discover gravity, Leibniz is over here developing calculus through pure intellectual grind. The contrast is perfect - Leibniz proudly announcing his monads and calculus after years of rigorous mental labor, while Newton gets distracted by fruit. It's the 17th century equivalent of "my dissertation vs. your Pinterest inspiration board." The historical shade is delicious - especially since both men feuded bitterly over who invented calculus first. Mathematical discovery: sometimes it takes years of work, sometimes it just falls on your head!
