Ted has blessed us yet again
First. I’m so depressed that I think this will make me smile.
Damn. I’m so slow I’m not even first.
Daniele Daniele I’m fine XXXXD. I’m just being dumb.

Brooke S. Cute dog
This is regular chemistry lol
Brooke S. It’s 101
Because just because you can’t do something doesn’t mean it can’t be interesting <3 Feed your brain!
unrelated to organic chem but what happened to TED Talks? Nowadays it seems every talk is TEDx, which used to worse than TED. Times change I guess
Oversaturation of the market. TEDx events are becoming more popular and accessible and so there’s more content to post on their channel and user traffic. I’m sure their upload frequency would be much lower if they only posted TED talks.
Toaster R what’s wrong with tedx? Just curious, if this was a tedx then I don’t think tedx are that bad.
“Finally a video that’s just about science without anything even tangentially political in it!”

Organic Chemistry is love❤️
Kevin Mason Oh it’s beautiful, and I kinda think why some people either hate it or love it to the extremes is because of how theoretical and pictoral and how mechanism based it is.
Atri Mandal.. We will be all the better if more young people are able to share the passion and interest you have for it.
Solid dad bod.
Beautiful.
