i know people make these kinds of posts with fictional characters a lot but like. hank green truly is one of The Most Guys Ever. like. he's one of the earliest youtubers who is still on there. he's a 43-year-old tiktok star. he's a science educator. he got cancer and his response was to make a tier list of the press's coverage of his cancer announcement. the president of the united states sent him a message of support and he told the president that he was pissing out the cancer. years earlier he was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis and his response was to write a polka song about it. he created vidcon. he's the ceo of a company that produces a shitton of educational series (well, not acting ceo at the moment due to the aforementioned cancer). his guitar says "this machine pwns n00bs" on it. he invented 2D glasses. one of his earliest videos to get popular was about animal sex. between him and his brother, he was known as "the science one" (or "the music one") while his brother was "the writer one," and then he wrote two new york times bestselling novels. his most controversial opinion is that butt is legs. he's done so many things that there is a website dedicated to counting the number of days since he started a new thing. he and his brother use their internet following to (among other things) fight maternal/infant mortality in sierra leone. he has a baked bean furby. hes even bisexual

never let anyone convince you that your excitement isn't beautiful. what an incredible thing it is, to notice and be overcome by any bright spot in this too-dark world.

it doesn't matter what you're excited about, how small it seems to other people, your joy deserves to grow as big as it can. nurture it. help it grow strong so that when you are hurting your joy can lend you its strength.

this is quite possibly the best thing I have ever seen ohhmygoddd

Please sign this petition to tell @DanaherCorp that their test prices are too much. Why should someone have to spend ALL their money just to get a test? Medicine should not be a luxury. #TimeFor5 #PeopleOverProfits

people on twitter finding out that Hank Green is bi, meanwhile I've been using his "well, first of all 👋👋👋" technique to sorta come out to my friends

Eleven years after Pizzamas began, today is on track to be our biggest launch day ever--and no wonder, since the designs this year are just spectacularly good.

I love our weird little Internet community so much. All this stuff and much, much more is available only during pizzamas, and only at pizzamas.com.

(All our proceeds go toward charities fighting tuberculosis in impoverished communities.)

this came to me in a vision

John and Hank Green created one of the longest enduring internet communities and still create killer content while giving their profits to charity but the Watcher boys are willing to fence off their community and only allow in the ones that can afford to contribute to them directly. that’s some bullshit

Hank Green's bi journey is giving me life today, so I'm going to share I bit of a timeline of the highlights as I see them. If a more dedicated Nerdfighter thinks I've forgotten something, please do reblog and add in your highlights.

I don't think John has posted here yet, but this is a call to action to put pressure on Johnson & Johnson who are needlessly extending a patent for Bedaquiline, a drug that could save hundreds of thousands of lives per year.

What a good opportunity for tumblr to try to negate some very bad John Green karma while also fighting for a good cause, yeah?

(Action items from the doobly-doo)

Tell Johnson and Johnson that evergreening their patent on bedaquiline, which will deny millions of people access to live-saving treatment, is a violation of their corporate credo! (NOTE: this one is quite lengthy and confusing and that is by design! They are trying to limit the number of complaints by putting so many barriers between you and submitting the report. Just keep going! Answer the questions to the best of your ability and get the report in.)
