Chalk and Cheese.
The main reason I enjoy E&F is the same reason I don't watch NileRed.
The former is all about doing chemistry with the cheapest, sketchiest equipment possible, while the latter will often spend thousands of dollars on a hugely expensive toy just to make clickbait videos about pop rocks and dental grills. I don't doubt that Nile(?) is an accomplished chemist, but my problem is that he doesn't actually do very much chemistry.
MrGreenGuy is somewhere in between the two, but he gets a free pass on account of being absolutely adorable. (Still not enough for me to sit through a two hour livestream though.)
I wonder what Chemiolis is up to these days; I haven't had one of his videos pop up in my feed for quite a while now. Ditto PrussianBlue, although I just assumed that the FBI finally sent Interpol after him.

Have to agree
There's never a question whether NileRed will do what he sets out to do, it's only a question of how much money he has to throw at the problem. E&F on the other hand can spend seven episodes and still end up with a beaker full of yellow sludge.

Bit of an odd one this. The collaboration had potential, but E&F is hardly in it and never speaks to camera - the bits of his videos that make them so engaging.
Also, melting lead isn't the most challenging chemistry either has ever done.

I made a website for wasting time more efficientlyI made this!
I’ve been collecting weird, creative and generally unnecessary corners of the web, writing a few words about each one, and trying to find the people who made them.
Some good stuff in there
But the "This person doesn't exist" face generator feels very dated!

Once of Ambrose Slade by name, Slade did a song called ''If this world were mine' on their first album 'Beginnings' in 1969, which was a cover of a Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell track from 1967.
Here's a new version of the Slade track with Noddy on vocals duetting with Tammi.
Tentative tick of 'I made this!' as I did the viocal arrangement on it.
Ahhh, nostalgia
This takes me back to the early days of the internet and Tracey's Fart Farm

I think the first automatic response of anyone in Gen X to a government alert
is to wonder whether it is the four minute warning of a nuclear strike.
Then aliens of course.
Wasn't expecting it to be about having a barbecue.

At least it was four minutes, I saw something recently that claimed fifteen minutes. Couldn't imagine that was actually likely anymore.

Normally my first thought would also be that Putin finally started lobbing nukes.
But this time I was in the supermarket and with so many people packed together it was loud enough that I thought it was the fire alarm.

The Crystal Cube (1983)
Thompson, Fry & Laurie's Look Around You-like pilot dealing with themes of genetics, eugenics, Nazism, religion and Marxism. Bizarrely the BBC chose not to give them a full series.

The outpouring of support for Binface way up here in the North has been inspiring.
I decided to move my wheelie bin from its usual spot in the back garden and put it at the roadside as a gesture of solidarity with that intrepid space warrior. It turns out that the entire street have had exactly the same idea!

Looks interesting, and Colman is an instant watch for me.
But so far, the only film I have any interest of suffering the cinema for is The Incomer, and even then only if the wee independent inside the local theatre shows it. I have no intention of setting foot in another commercial cinema as long as I live.
