I don't know who that is, but I'm glad to hear it! Fuck cancer!

Guess it's time to check out a new YouTube channel...

It's like if Bill Nye was your nerdy buddy instead of your cool professor. I've never met the dude but he's on my list of people who don't know they're my friend.

Yay for parasocial relationships.

This is really interesting because it seems to me there's a placebo effect. I know I don't know Hank Green but despite knowing he isn't my friend (but he totally would be) he still feels like it.

His brother is also a pretty good YouTuber, author, and podcaster

And their combined podcast is pretty fun: https://open.spotify.com/show/6e4HNBdPvjDOHKVf82oMEk

I miss that podcast so much. I hope it comes back when they’re ready
