Infinity is not a number but a concept. There are different sizes of infinity. For example, these are all technically true:

♾ + ♾ = ♾
♾ x ♾ = ♾
♾ - 1 = ♾
♾ + 1 = ♾

There are more numbers between 0 and 1 than there are whole numbers at all. The number of whole numbers is infinite but it’s also the smallest infinite number. The number of irrational numbers between 0 and 1 is 2^♾, which is a bigger infinity.

Infinity is a mindfook

There are a number of chemicals that give a false positive on a presumptive test for blood, including, of all things, bleach. Don't clean a bloody crime scene with bleach, boys and girls!
