I'm going to preface this by saying that I know this is reductive and there shouldn't be a dichotomy at all here, but just for fun
I'd like to see, for once, the sciences portrayed as warm and human and full of love and passion, and the arts portrayed as cold, clinical, and unfeeling.
Not even as a crude generalization necessarily, just as a change in focus. Let's experiment with exploring sciences as driven by love and wonder, and arts as detached and cynical

While everyone is getting over the trainwreck of plagiarism on Youtube from certain creators, you should also be aware that educational content on Youtube is becoming a huge minefield in regards to stolen content as well!
Please remember Youtube is owned by Google and does not give a flying fuck about whose content is right or wrong unless a major company is striking the vid down for content purposes.
This means that a PLETHORA of (shittily made) videos made by small groups are plagiarizing Actual content creators like Kyle Hill!
youtube
Entire channels are created to churn out videos that feature stolen content from science/tech and meteorology creators and videographers—all to gain ad revenue and take away much needed attention toward important issues (example: volunteers who provide healthcare to Dogs in the Exclusion Zone surrounding Chernobyl function solely on donations).
While your attention may be diverting away from Somerton and HBomberguy, REMEMBER THAT PLAGIARISM ON YOUTUBE IS ONLY GETTING WORSE.

Analyze objectively.
Practice humility
Respect constructive criticism.
Give credit where it’s due.

"Students doing graduate-level research say Canada risks losing its future scientists to other countries because the dollar amounts of annual grants have remained stagnant for nearly 20 years.
A Canada Graduate Scholarship from one of the three federal research funding agencies is $17,500 per year for a master's student or $21,000 per year for a doctoral student. Those amounts have not changed since 2003.
In return for that funding, the recipients are expected to work full-time on their research, and in some cases are explicitly banned from spending more than 10 hours per week on any other paid employment. 
"Definitely below the poverty line in any capacity," said Sarah Laframboise, a PhD student in biochemistry at the University of Ottawa. 
Laframboise is one of the organizers of a campaign called Support Our Science, calling on the Trudeau government to boost graduate student funding from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council."

sometimes i see people say the fact that we're so small in the grand scheme of things is scary and depressing, and i get it, the universe is huge, perhaps infinite, perhaps it isn't even the only universe but one of thousands, space is incredibly marvelous and powerful, black holes hold a power that we can't imagine, black matter is being researched, time flies fast, life is short, ours is like a pearl of water in the insanely big ocean of history, this history is a pearl of water in the insanely big existence of time in itself... i get it. it can feel so terrifying. but i also think it is beautiful. it is beautiful that in this immensely huge scheme we don't understand and never will, we are out there, using our ridiculous amount of time to play video games with our siblings, to laugh in front of a movie with our parents, to go party with our friends, to make love, to create art. i find it really beautiful and poetic.

11 février 1650 : mort de René Descartes ➽ http://bit.ly/Biographie-Rene-Descartes Comptant parmi les véritables restaurateurs de la science de l’entendement, Descartes exerça une importante et rapide influence sur son siècle : la nouveauté de ses hypothèses, la grandeur et la hardiesse de ses vues, la clarté de ses idées, et la généralité au moins apparente de ses méthodes entraînèrent plus ou moins les esprits les plus cultivés du beau XVIIe siècle, cependant qu’elles lui valurent dans le même temps nombre d’attaques de détracteurs

Sound of Planets
Instruments on NASA's Voyager, INJUN 1, ISEE 1 and HAWKEYE space probes were used to record the vibrations of different objects in our solar system. Says NASA: The recorded sounds are the complex interactions of charged electromagnetic particles from the solar wind, ionisphere, and planetary magnetosphere. Original Audio

I just made this acronym up and if anyone needs this for science to help memorize the periodic trends, here it is!
Atomic radius
Ionization energy
Reactivity
Electronegativity
Electron affinity
Almost all of the trends go up and to the right = stronger, with the atomic radius going down and to the left = stronger!
