    Not surprised she’s a lib. Although we all can benefit from more Commie scientists (sorry, Lysenko).

    That being said, I appreciate her weekly science news stuff and no-nonsense physics videos. For people with technical backgrounds, she’s better than similar science channels out there (except PBS Spacetime, my beloved).

    On another note, she turned so clickbaity recently. What’s with YouTube and those weird thumbnail face expressions?? I see it everywhere and it’s so greasy-looking.

      Something about the YouTube algorithm pushing videos with that type of thumbnail so now every video has a thumbnail of someone making a funny face to drive viewership.
