I've mentioned ViHart in passing before, but it's time for her to get a proper schilling.

She's a YouTuber who does stuff with math that nobody else does, usually through drawing cute little drawings. In particular she tackles pi vs. tau and how to use everyday objects to demonstrate mathematical ideas.

Turning candy button strips into Mobius Loops to make eating them more efficient.

A sillyband fight that has nothing to do with math. Sillybands were a fad back in the nineties, rubber bands that were deliberately made to be shaped like objects and not just circles. Stay tuned for the Hitchhiker's reference.

Playing with those jointed plastic snakes that you buy at the arcade with tickets.
