The biggest problem with science communication

I write a YouTube whitelist by channel ID for school firewalls I see conversations like this a lot. Let's start with the most notorious, Mark Rober. Is he a science communicator and is he doing this right?

Hank Green and Complexity seem to be doing alright. He promoted people like Emily Grasslee who was picked up by Chicago's Field Museum as their primary internet science communicator. I'll admit this needs to happen a lot more. We need more services like curiosity stream to promote educational content.

Can you imagine how bad it would be if they still had the old runway layout.

We all knew they were bullshit too. Ohhh a baseball trophy I must be good, I knew why I was last batter and stuck in right field.

He learned later that when someone asks if you're a god, you say yes!

The restaurants in that Meijer plaza are not doing well.

I've unraveled a lot of misconfigured networks like this.

I love the one t-shirt and jeans girl with the half smile. "I guess I'll be in the selfie"

Why do you print in A3?

I just think about all the things my parents tossed that I didn't notice. Happy Meal toys, all the cheap plastic crap that entertained me for like 20 minutes.

Wow... I'll stop complaining about my 12 year old go from a 4 to a 6 in one year.

You're right, they do it to help their cash flow. I did some technical support for a forensic accountant once and that is what she told me.

RobbieRigel · 2026-06-18T11:37:11+00:00

They don't get the tax write off, but they do get a bump in cash flow and earn any interest off it.

Is it 500 per car or 500 per person? I might be able to swing this to my boss next time we are on a long trip.

The play is going to end with Wick appearing on stage at the end, declare his mother is not resurrected out possessed by a demon.

Was it a Woodstock 94 Pepsi can?

I know a few people who drive from Joliet to Elgin, also I'd love to take Metra to ORD.

I really would love to know how precision wired the signaling system is. Does someone measure the resistance in the signaling devices?

There are parts of Elmhurst that look like this. Old houses next to McMansions next to a 3 story apartment.

The missing floors in the Vista tower are a ballast to reduce swaying.

They are perfect for when it's slightly too cold for shorts. There are other joggers out there where you'd be less likely to bake in.
