I’m seeing a bunch of Conservatives on Facebook admiring Terrance Howard.
What the heck, anyone know what is happening? He’s seriously a whacko, right? Is there something about him that’s real, or are Conservatives just continuing to lose their marbles.
Pseudoscience is always going to attract people who want to feel like they know more than others without putting in a lot of work on studying things.
Terrance Howard also believes 1x1=2 so wouldn’t put a ton of stock into his other theories but haven’t heard of this one specifically. Like the other commentator said if he at some point shows concrete evidence I’m happy to admit I’m wrong but he hasn’t had that for his other stuff so I’m doubtful.
Obligate link for Neil deGrasse Tyson’s academic analysis of Terrence Howard’s “research paper” he tried to publish: Invidious or YouTube. Neil gave him constructive criticism with the goal of helping him improve his understanding of science. Yet, that’s not how he took it, and the content of the paper truly demonstrates how the field of science is FULLY not within Terrance’s wheelhouse. His “understanding” of science should only be used to help others new to the field see the benefits and reasons for the scientific method.
From the comments on that:
“When someone is offended their hypothesis was rejected, they prove they weren’t looking for the truth, they were looking to be right.”
Sums up a lot of pseudoscience bullshit pretty well
All NDG did was make sure that Terrence will never seek his opinion or advice again. He probably could have put Terrence on the right path if he would have used a softer approach. Instead he just told him all the ways he was wrong. Know your audience.
Holy shit that is dumb
No, that is mental illness.
You can use any shape you want. The rest is idiotic but you can get crazy with the shape if you want.
The grid is for us, it can be whatever shape we want, but our current knowledge groups elements best in the grid shape it has. (Noble gas on the edge, metals in the middle, Arranged in order of protein count, etc.).
Will there be a different way to present the data? Yes, likely, and that’s okay.
Edit: I’m not saying I know anything about his specific presentation, just that there’s no “this is how nature intended” approach to displaying it.
Edit 2: I’m leaving that typo. Phones are great for this stuff.
I get all my protein from helium. 😅
Some people get iron from their proteins, I get proteins from my iron.
(I’m leaving the typo though)
Given that he predicts 6 new elements (3 lighter than hydrogen and 3 heavier than hydrogen before getting to helium), he’s a looney just like his math.

One wonders what material they’re going to be made of!
Inquiring minds can’t WAIT to find out!
He’s insane. See being insane like this isn’t just holding a belief radically different from commonly accepted knowledge, but failing to provide proof or evidence that can be independently verified.
If he could provide proof, even bad proof, it’d be fine. But since he couldn’t even understand why a side character would get paid less than the leading role and fumbled the marvel bag so hard it’s unlikely he’d ever be able to provide proof.
remember back when we didn’t listen to famous people’s opinions outside their field of expertise?
But but but… 1x1=2

We used to believe that Earth was the center of the solar system (everything revolves around it) until concrete evidence proved otherwise.
Facts are Facts despite where they come from.
Psh. Next you’ll want me to believe the earth is round. Like, come on, bro. Get your head out of the sand before it’s too late. /s
Ugh, I’m so sick of “round Earth” wackos. Earth is obviously a square. How else could things be in FOUR CORNERS of the world? Morans.
Whose the moran now, moran. Everyone knows the earth is donut shaped and the moon is the timbit from the centre. Spluh.
Shame he wasn’t in Iron Man 2 to help them invent a new element.
He was the actor in Iron Man? He played all the roles, all by himself? How did I miss that?
Edit: if he was the actor, he should have been paid more! You’re just proving him right!
Yes! Including the female roles!
