I think this attempt at creating a real life invisibility cloak during ww2 is very interesting and sciency.

There could be up to 100,000 years worth of hydrogen fuel deposited in Earth's crust

Wow this is so cool! 🔥. I hadnt realized hydrogen was so clean! I really hope we switch to it despite it not being as profitable. Hate that Koloma indented is owned by Jeff Bazos tho. I hope there is a push in the USA to go green with hydrogen and switch to hydrogen cars. Especially since we have so much of it apparently! ⛽️

Wow I got on a rabbit hole with this content creator. She seems very empirical and studies/picks apart research articles well. I do, however disagree with some of her points in some of her videos on transgender people. Her language being perhaps politically incorrect, especially given the invalidating & bio-esentialist language already present in science literature. Her points also seem somewhat invalidating of trans identities (or rather the wording and questions she asks & the conclusions she draws)

I recommend looking at her other videos on trans people. She makes great points, supporting the scientific validitity of transition... she also makes... questionable points & chooses to focus on some points that are... *ahem*... not something I would say as a social worker, activist/organizer, or someone who thinks about how language affects public opinion. (That being, trans identities being politicized and her authority as a researcher having power in those narratives. Harmful or good) Especially since some of her points are narratives I've heard the right use as punchs/ammunition. She's a scientist tho, which is not something to discredit *cough*, so I'll give her the pass. Especially since she's also bringing up unquestionable details that validates the trans experience (leaving out such details would certainly show her bias otherwise, showing she's pretty good at looking at all sides).

It's always a struggle when identities become validated and invalidated by science, such that that science has authority in a politically oppressive context.

(🔴"Oh transition is not legit, we will strip away your existence and rights.")

🏳️‍⚧️Biggest taboo hypothetical question in Ethics on Transgender Science;


What if they find the part of the brain that coorilates with being transgender. Would a drug that makes a person who transgender into a person who is Cis via drugs, be ethical?
