The Physics of Book Clubs and Vidcon

In which John discusses his Vidcon experience, thanks his brother, and announces that you (yes, you!) need to read Part I of Ray Bradbury's FAHRENHEIT 451 by next Tuesday to prepare for our discussion in the Nerdfighter Book Club.

T-Shirt and Jeans - A Song

Ellen Hardcastle: http://dftba.com/artist/15/Hank-Green

In which Hank sings a song about his favorite outfit. I wrote this after a debate with Tom Milsom. A debate which, to be clear, I was not the winner of. I actually think that fashion is a perfectly viable form of communication and that is absolutely an art.

So,…

On Religion (Redux)

In which John finished up what turned out to be Religion Theme Week here in nerdfighteria by discussing the complexity of religious identity and why we must reconcile ourselves to living in a world riddled with ambiguity. (In short, to revisit the theme of Vlogbrothers 2011: The truth resists simplicity.)

Top 5 Kick-Ass Things About the Webb Telescope

The James Webb Space Telescope is the successor to the Hubble's throne. In order to pick up extremely faint infra-red signals from extremely distant stars and galaxies, the JWST has to be extremely cold. Any noise from the IR radiation of the Sun or Earth would make it impossible to see as far into the past as scientists want to.

Thus, the JWST has to be a million miles from the earth, protected by a six-layer heat shield as big as a tennis court. This will… Continue

Adult Female: A Song

SUBSCRIBE NAO! http://www.youtube.com/p4a

Lyrics:

This song is for a girl

no wait I changed my mind

this song, is for a human adult female

Is it just me or is it creepy

how when we refer to a person romantically

We often use words relating to children

And it's not just girl

and it's not just baby

it's also boy and I think it's where we get… Continue
