Reasons Why Bill Nye Saves the World is Super Cool

gridlines:

*there is an entire episode dedicated to debunking alternative medicine and all the bullshit miracle treatments that we as chronically ill people are so frequently lectured about!
*he discusses ways that technology can help those with disabilities (specifically a new camera app that can help blind folk by providing an audio description of their surroundings)
*he debunks the menacing stigma of GMO crops, which many ignorant people blame as the cause of cancer and other illnesses
*he debunks the claim that vaccination is linked to autism, as well as demonstrates how unvaccinated people can severely impact those who are immunocompromised.

Bill Nye acknowledged and validated pansexuality on his new Netflix show, Bill Nye Saves the World.

Even though I don’t particularly like the “regardless of” definition of pansexuality, I’ve seen quite a few people who are really happy about this and that is so important to me.

So, endless shoutouts to Bill Nye for acknowledging and validating people who very rarely feel seen and valid.

also asexuaity, and nonbinary/agender people! this episode made me wanna cry from happiness
