Doom scrolling? Stop to watch Veronika and you will feel much better.
I won't judge you if you have a cow watching Veronika using a scrub brush as a tool! I know I did. Learn about that and so much more from @science.org and science in this edition of #ScienceAdviser: www.science.org/content/arti... 🧪 🐮
