Honestly I found this video in particular hard to watch.
It’s a gut-wrenching story and hits heavy because we all know that these companies will never be dismantled and the people within them investigated and ultimately held responsible.
You might have seen this video in your yt recommendations, I don’t usually watch veriatsium, but it’s worth a watch.
It’s the Veratisium video about PFAS btw.
I use DeArrow and as such didn’t recognize the thumbnail or title, but I’ve seen it - so if anyone else was wondering there you go.
Makes me more likely to watch. Maybe OP isn’t aware of Veritasium’s reputation.
I love the fact that the channel evolved from dunking on the uninformed public to full blown documentaries.
Seeing him on German TV in a documentary was surprising.
I thought my memory was failing me but it really was low key at the start eh?
There is an element of truth.
Well played :)
I mean that must have been his pun from the outset but it didn’t occur to me.
My first year at the college paper, we had the photo credit in the cutline box in the library filled in as Tungsten J. Smith. The “J” stood for statinum, as in, right the fuck now, playing off tungsten being W on the periodic table. One of the other designers was into chemistry.
WJ getting credited in print introduced me to the problem of using something that at a glance seemed plausible on deadline. This was after my disastrous “just write something” hed on a sports feature of “My leaking heart” that the editor did not revisit.
TIL Tungsten is represented as W on the periodic table. But you lost me with the rest…
Bed time here. Maybe I wake up to a humourous reveal here tomorrow.
