Preferring books over Indian one-shots, is it just me?

10th grader here who's trying to learn some pre-calc rn. Whenever I search up a topic, the first video that comes up is often some one-shot of PW or the many other JEE channels, I have also explored the lectures in paid batches, and often find myself completely unsatisfied with the way they teach.

Its like every 5 minutes they just have to crack an unnecessary and irrelevant joke or start randomly giving motivation. The beauty and geometrical intuition behind identities and formulas are almost never taught (even though it is SO much easier when you think of trig in unit circles and a coordinate system). Oh and how can I forget, the way they just ASSUME you're a guy by referring to the audience actively with male pronouns. I know these things might be considered a non-issue by some, and I can see where you are coming from,

But is it worth it to keep watching these lectures even after all of this and even though books provide significantly higher amounts of information? Personally, no. If the quality of these one shots and lectures were truly unparalleled, I would stick around.

But let me know your opinions!

Learning math is SO fun and captivating when you detach yourself from the results

I've been preparing for a competitive exam lately (JEE) and I decided to start with Math since I enjoy it a lot, lately I started DREADING the idea of studying it and honestly it made me panic more than it made me excited. Every question I couldn't solve became a blow to my confidence rather than a lesson

But today I just tried my best not to think about the exam at all, or my skill level, or any of the "what ifs" really. I'm naturally a very anxious person so the thoughts did come up sometime but overall, I have to say, that was the most I've enjoyed math in a while. I felt so alive and happy, and I did not want to leave at all

I don't exactly know what's the point of this post, just felt like sharing my experience ig:D

Things which aren't inherently bisexual but FEEL bisexual

Saw some reel about this and I can not stop wanting to hear about more of this. What are some things which you guys just feel is bisexual?

I'll go first: PB&J sandwiches, the tangent (trigonometry), and of course, bicycles
