Math Gets Taxed
The mathematical community is in shambles! Someone vandalized the Wikipedia page for the Chinese Remainder Theorem with a fictional tariff policy dated in the future. What makes this extra hilarious is how it perfectly mimics the format of a legitimate Wikipedia article—complete with a blue hyperlink and citation marker [2]. The Chinese Remainder Theorem is actually a fundamental concept in number theory that's been around since the 3rd century CE—not something you can slap a 40% tariff on! Next thing you know, they'll be taxing the Pythagorean Theorem for being Greek during budget cuts.

The Math Problem That Broke The Internet (Not Really)
The "+AI" in the corner gives it away! This isn't a math problem—it's a propaganda problem. Nothing says "intellectual superiority complex" like claiming only ONE person could solve basic arithmetic. The solution is trivial (9+7+14=30), but the real equation here is: [Fabricated Difficulty] + [Appeal to Authority] + [False Exclusivity] = [Gullible Shares]. These "IQ tests" spread faster than gossip in a university department after budget cuts. Next time someone shares this, just respond with "15+1+14=30" and watch their existential crisis unfold in real-time.

Periodic Table Drama: Hydrogen Gets The Pluto Treatment
Scientific gatekeeping strikes again! First they came for Pluto, now they're coming for hydrogen? The image shows what appears to be an atom or atomic structure visualization, while the fake news headline claims hydrogen is getting kicked off the periodic table for being "too small" — just like Pluto got demoted from planet status. The cherry on top is that additional "breakthrough" about "Sus Scrofa" test flights (that's just the scientific name for domestic pigs). Looks like someone's trying to make chemistry as controversial as astronomy! Next week's headline: "Electrons deemed too negative, replaced with more upbeat particles."
