Airports, a good clock, and a Taco Bell heist.

• In a meditative, slice-of-life, wonderfully edited video, M. Bjoernstroem works multiple positions in a small airport in the northern part of Sweden. Tower control! Plane de-icing! Snow-blowing! There are timelapses, drone footage, and POV shots. He's not the only one working there, but he's the only one with a camera on him.
   
• Attoparsec finds, restores, and improves the greatest clock (and map) ever made, the "Geochron", and takes a few interesting tangents on the way. The video's presentation and editing here elevates it somehow: normally a video like this might be a bit too slow and discursive, but it kept me interested throughout. Although it's fair to point out that his final tangent about continuous time zones has some rather strong evidence against it! (Thanks to the many people who sent this over!)
   
• Howtown is a brand-new channel that tries to answer questions that start "how do we know...", with professional-level graphics, explainers and interviews. Their first video: how do we know dogs are colorblind?
   

• One of the most unusual heists in America seems to be unfolding at Taco Bell.
   
• Over the last few words, the US Federal Aviation Administration has changed the five-letter names of waypoints to remove some naughty words.
   
• Dr Jen Gunter investigates how easy setting up a "nutritional supplement" business is, how much money it can make, and just how little evidence it requires.

And finally: Michael Jackson's Thriller in the style of German techno-rave band Scooter. The auto-translated subtitles do a pretty good job of explaining what he's doing, but if you'd just like the music, skip to 4:22!

All the best,
