I might have teared up during the montage.

It's like the end of an age. But as he literally said it's not.

I've almost never been this conflicted in my life.

For the past decade I've been waking up to a new Tom Scott video every Monday. The positivity and curiosity helped me start my week. I'm really going to miss it.

I remember someone telling a suuuuper dumb joke and then linking "two drums and a cymbal" several years after he made the video, and I'd see vids occasionally.

It wasn't until "Danger: Humans" that I went through all his "things you might not know" he had at the time, and subscribed.

I'll just have to binge the channel some more.

I love that two drums and a cymbal video. It's amazing how perfect it turned out.
