  • I'll second 3blue1brown.

    Scott Manley is, of course, mainly interested in rockets, but does cover sciencey things too (I believe he's a former professional astronomer).

    I like Cleo Abram's "optimistic science" shorts.

  • Surely any roadblocks you put in place quickly by one party in power can be removed quickly by the other party in power. Again, I think what's going to matter is those few people in the administration with standards and allegiance to the country over party, and loud outcries from the people when they touch something important.

  • There is a myth in evangelical Christian circles, I believe acknowledged in the article, that candy canes have their color (white for purity, red for blood) and shape (upside-down J for Jesus) and taste (sweet like the gospel) to explicitly communicate Christian doctrines. There is even a children's Christmas musical performed in churches at Christmas based on this principle. As much as one may approve of the doctrines, Christians holding steadfastly to a particular origin of candy canes regardless of the evidence seems dishonest and misguided, if not outright idolatrous to me.
