    About this ebook

    Quascifixion Second Edition presents thirteen articles dealing with string theory, how to repair a severed spinal cord, two sessions with the Nth Guru where you'll learn god-level skills to deal with everyday problems, and also funny topics like a feud between two online scrabblers in limerick format, our gas polluted air, and fusion cuisine. Quascifixion also reflects on the relationship between a neutrino and the fabric of space-time, posing important questions about the link between material and conceptual, and offering answers to interesting scenarios. Join Quascifixion in squaring the circle, adding real values to zero, unveiling two new zero types to correct our flawed math theory which cannot fully grasp transcendental numbers. Read about the woman who gave birth to her great-great-grandson. Be in session with the Nth Guru as he teaches you how to identify the two yous and helps you become more aware of your surroundings and your spirituality.

      Your Brain Makes You a Different Person Every Day

      Oct 14, 2020

      Brain “plasticity” is one of the great discoveries in modern science, but neuroscientist David Eagleman thinks the word is misleading. Unlike plastic, which molds and then retains a particular shape, the brain’s physical structure is continually in f

      INTRODUCTION

      This is Quascifixion.

      Quascifixion is a delivery vehicle for a variety of topics. Quascifixion will improve your quality of life in ways unsuspected. Quascifixion gushes out the my stylus like fresh spring water; there is much to say about life.

      Quasi + Science + Fiction = Quascifixion

      Quascifixion is a literary genre that purposely blends fiction with non-fiction, where the preponderance of either measures the validity of any arguments, conclusions, and premises made. Quascifixion can be simply descriptive, merely inquisitive, simply entertaining. Quascifixion is humorous and serious, ignorant and savvy, ingenious and obtuse, folksy and refined, inquisitive and instructional, dreamy and realistic, aspiring and accomplished, bold but not deceitful, outlandish but daring to think.

      Quascifixion’s mission is to further science through topic auscultation, to further mathematics by debunking presumptuous math quackery, to refine our perception of the world, the spiritual world, ourselves, and to at last grasp the quasi-tangible link that exists between physical structures and abstract notions which are constantly tugging at each other, perpetually causing one another to exist. Moreover, Quascifixion seeks to promote critical thinking in order to further science, reason, ethics, meaningful aesthetics, worthy existence, noble purpose. Welcome to Quascifixion!
