Sir David Leafenborough
Needs more jpeg, there is almost enough pixels to read this.
I think we're just supposed to infer something generally heartwarming and nod vaguely and approvingly.
Source. I found it in about 2 minutes. I would say "OP should have done the same instead of reposting this" but actually I can't find this image anywhere and it may be an original screenshot.
Anyway, here's the letter:
You are my hero. I was kinda sad that i couldn't read the letter.
THANK YOU FOR POSTING A LEGIBLE LINK.
Dunno if it's just a recent coincidence but both of the mander.xyz links on my feed are thumbnails of teeny images destroying their content.
Thank you for doing the lords work and finding a few more pixels.
Edit-did anyone else read that in his accent?
Of course, that's the law.
Posts like this make me think about who will be the David Attenborough, Bill Nye, Martyn Poliakoff etc of tomorrow, and how do we lift them up without politicization?
The next generation of learning celebrities are already here. I don't think they will be the same as those in the past though. Video sites allow far more niche versions of these great educators who don't need to work on getting TV contracts to spread their enthusiasm for their subjects. I doubt future generations will have singular celebrity educators, but a wide array of them that all get to add their own creative touch to learning.
I'm very excited about it.
Grant Sanderson (3blue1brown) for example will change future generations' relationship with learning math. We haven't have a celebrity math educator before!
Grant Sanderson is my personal hero! I've always had a deep love for maths, thanks to an absolutely stellar math teacher in school, and it's always saddened me how negatively most people look at the subject! I fully believe Grant's amazing style of teaching is capable of changing that for people and bringing the beauty of math to the wider world.
First that come to mind are Kyle hill, nilered and vsauce Michael Stevens. Love those guys.
Hank Green and Joe Hanson, too!!!
Michael Stevens is definitely up there. He takes a gentle "love your fellow person" approach to things but also teaches so very much.
I feel like Kyle and Michael would be great friends if they met in person, and I would watch infinite content from the two of them. It would feel like Mythbusters all over again.
Chris Packham, Megan McCubbin, Iolo Williams, Steve Backshall spring to mind.
You don't, especially when science related topics are political
wait didn't poliakoff get popular online? To me he's the guy who talks about elements
Mr beast, Mark Rober, veritasium guy, bruspup
Awwww
I do wish we could afford a few more pixels though. This is a paltry sum.
His signature is wild.
His A is thicc
I read that whole letter in his voice.
What do pixels sound like?
An avuncular throat clearing.
It's weird. Like, "I read it in his voice" could imply you "tried" to do it conciously. Like I could imagine it as a clown monologue or Goofy saying it. But for me (and possibly for you as well), the voice just happened, as if they were talking to you. No concious choice was made. And all because we looked at a bunch of squiggly lines that have meanings only to the people who know them. And through that meaning they seem to be carrying the voice of the person himself and a recognizable piece of themselves (of their personality, their soul).
The human mind is fucking weird man.
Why rename?
Because it’s a leaf insect not a stick insect. So the stick name is inappropriate.
Stickenborough is not a stick insect, they're a leaf insect, so would be called Leafenborough
Can anybody read it? All I see is blurry text
