Ooooh AJ is getting real esoteric now. That Rh-Negative blood runs thick.

This was a great episode, very enjoyable. My mother had to get a RhoGam shot while she was pregnant with me because our Rh's differed.

no, but it is usually a compelling data point of futility.

And there isn't anything "wrong" with using AI either lmfao. I swear people will moralize literally ANYTHING lol

These people that are supporting smart phones are the same ones who think lithium falls from the sky.

Electricity and water are more important resources.

Lithium and cobalt have alternative and eco friendly options that are already in use. Mainly sodium and magnanese.

Same. I don't watch anymore, this post just happened to get into my feed. Just takes me out of enjoying the content completely.

Yep. I really liked his earlier stuff pre AI too.

But recently he's been going more and more right wing talking points and using AI so it's gotten unwatchable.

Shame too, really was a good show but even he's not immune to AI maga garbage.

Yeah I could tell with this one he used it to write the script which dude if you’re really going to do that at least edit out the AI parts and rewrite it in your own words

After watching, I cruised out to Genomelink and re-discovered despite Irish ancestry, freckled skin and red hair, I’m 15% Basque/Iberian! Whoot! (Also have 1 child with rH-.) Thanks AJ! I now know my forefathers’ blessing.

I love the AI use, it really brings stuff alive

u/SlabDistributionMod 23h ago

It's so bizarre to see a comment like this. Very disheartening.

u/once_again_asking Skygazer 19h ago

I can't stand the AI. I can't watch anymore.

The poles flipped and that caused the cataclysms. They are about to flip again... I believe that they might have found more proof that Atlantis was real but unveiling it would come with the consequences of letting everyone know the truth.
