Slime molds are exceedingly weird. They are even weirder when explained by Ze Frank in a True Facts video. They can harness a lot of simple abilities to act like they are have brains, which they don't. But they can get around better than some animals that have brains. For some reason I had never learned that they are a single cell. How do they grow so big? Well, according to Ze, they may be one cell, but they have many nuclei, which is another way slime molds are exceedingly weird. This video has plenty of jokes without being as prurient as some of his other recent videos. It also has a skippable one-minute ad in the middle.
