Unlocking the Science of Color: Why Everything You Knew is Wrong! (Kind Of)

The Science of Color

Have you ever thought you understood color? Well, think again! In the latest video from the Reactions YouTube channel, Alex Dainis, Ph.D., a brilliant science communicator with a PhD in genetics, breaks down the misconceptions surrounding color perception that you’ve likely encountered before.

Most videos simplify the concept by stating that light hits an object, and what isn’t absorbed is reflected back, forming our perception of color. But as Alex reveals, this explanation is incomplete. Color is not just about light; it’s about how that light (energy) interacts with electrons in the objects around us.

The amount of research that went into this is phenomenal, and you can really appreciate the dedication when you see how many outfits Alex wears throughout the video. It’s a clear sign of just how long it took to film!

Whether you’re a science enthusiast or just curious about the world around you, this video will give you a fresh perspective on something we all think we know! Watch below!



The Little Witcher: Geralt’s Heartwarming Adventures as a Dad

The Little Witcher

Ever wondered what Geralt of Rivia would be like as a dad? The Little Witcher is here to answer that question with a heartwarming twist! This upcoming comic collection, with charming illustrations by Giada Carboni, brings a playful, family-friendly take on the legendary Witcher as he raises young Ciri. The cover alone captures the magic—Geralt is carrying Ciri on his shoulders, with his signature swords strapped to his back, while Ciri wields a wooden sword, surrounded by her playful doodles on the walls behind them.

The Little Witcher Cover

Between monster-slaying and bedtime stories, Geralt tackles everyday parenting challenges, from teaching Ciri how to survive a dangerous world to surrendering during afternoon tea parties with her toys. Joined by Yennefer, Vesemir, and other familiar faces, this adorable series shows that parenting—even Witcher-style—isn’t all that different from raising any other kid!

Pre-order The Little Witcher now on Amazon for $16, and get ready for laughs, bonding, and maybe even a few bedtime monsters!

Power Smart Cat Sofa Recliner

Just when you thought you had all your furniture needs covered, Ingrem slides in with the ultimate game-changer: the Cat Themed Power Smart Sofa Recliner. For $1,299.00 USD, you can finally live the dream of lounging in a chair with cat ears and paw accents—because clearly, that’s what your life has been missing. It’s voice-controlled with four preset modes: 107° for “I’m definitely working,” 111° for “gaming is totally productive,” 125° for “my body is here, but my soul left for snacks,” and 132° for “wake me up when it’s the weekend.”

Cat Power Sofa preset modes

And if you’re considering getting it without the paws? Friend, what are you even doing? Don’t half-commit to greatness! This recliner comes in four stylish fleece colors (blue, grey, black, and pink), but the paws are the star of the show. Although, if they really wanted to push the envelope, they’d add whiskers and a tail too. Missed opportunity, Ingrem—missed opportunity.

Rube Goldberg Machine Unleashes Total Alarm Destruction

Alarm Destruction

Ever had that urge to take a baseball bat to your alarm clock? Well, Joseph Herscher of Joseph’s Machines takes that instinct to hilarious extremes with his latest creation: a Rube Goldberg contraption hell-bent on obliterating his phone to silence. Think of it as the “Snooze Your Phone” version of a demolition derby!

What’s even funnier? The chaos is so loud that it drowns out the alarm, probably making his neighbors wonder if there’s a construction site next door! And just when you think he’s gonna sleep through it all, Joseph’s machine drags him out of bed, leaving him to question whether it was really worth it to wake up after all.

Check out the full video for a laugh and a reminder that while you may want to destroy your alarm, some things are just too tough to crack.

Please note that Joseph’s video was made in partnership with Casetify, a company that specializes in protective phone cases.
