Difficult to find a video that combines the back story of this carol AND the traditional version. Kate Smith's rendition will have to do. youtu.be/-XSnSSDe7fg?...

Recommend watching this: youtu.be/Sfekgjfh1Rk?...

Worth the watch: youtu.be/1PlQzSzx6oM?...

During Trump's first term, I played this video over and over. I can't explain why--but I connected the lyrics to Trump and his history of lies (many to inflate his own ego). The joke is on him. youtu.be/e_gvUiwsE6Q?...

I echo the sentiment of a comment posted on this video--we need another MLK today. I suggest we need this kind of unified march on Washington DC! I was old enough to be aware of the civil rights marches, and the murders first of MLK and RFK. youtu.be/I47Y6VHc3Ms?...

To my fellow dreamers--don't give up! youtu.be/xl_FfF53Wec?...

Just because....plenty need the comforting words: youtu.be/yA4sle_-Rek?...

If you watch anything on YouTube today--please watch this: youtu.be/Sfekgjfh1Rk?...

Keep speaking truth to power. It might not be this way...but no less important! youtu.be/ciz_gIoXtWc?...

One of the few rap videos I've listened to of late. Third one Eminem was part of. youtu.be/l3t0D7fYuhc?...

Another one. At least someone in the music world is speaking out. youtu.be/hYYauk4EmIc?...

Not especially a fan of rap, but this came up the other day while I was on YouTube. Keep on speaking out!! youtu.be/Vdjfpi7SsNs?...

Well....it's done. The Republicans passed that horrible bill. They have sown the wind. They'll reap the whirlwind. It"s going to get ugly. History clearly demonstrates what a hungry unhappy populace will do. All I can say is....thankful I'm NOT them. What I am is sick of being ignored/unheard.

Just read a very good article on Time magazine's website titled "Trump’s Orwellian Erasure of Women" posted on May 10, 2025. Encourage all to read it. There is so much chatter of late regarding Orwell's works--but does everyone know his wife? Great read.

Best YT video I've seen today: youtu.be/uf_GCOSZ2bA?...

Came across this video this AM--absolutely too good not to pass on. youtu.be/iBeBtwk8DfQ?...

Came across this site this morning. I added my name to this petition. www.impeachtrumpagain.org

Wanted to add--I do not mind political discourse on HERE. I expect that.

Briefly checked FB a few moments ago. Personally, I keep all my personal political views off of there. I know all too well a lot of people like having a place to go that's politics-free. Nothing like going on there to see new pics of my cousin's new grandson and instead--seeing Trump crap.

@algreen.house.gov Thank you so much for standing up to all of the stuff going on! Saw your speech on PBS News YouTube channel. I wish my reps had the courage to stand up for us instead of kissing Trump's ring and selling us out. 😒

This deserves to be shared!! Amazing speech. youtu.be/hNXdfERcbPQ?...

I'll never know why my YouTube feed includes what it does....but I am often thankful it does! Fact: I am not Muslim. Another fact: The man speaking in this video IS. I'm not sure I agree with him on everything, but listening has sparked serious thought. Worth the time. youtu.be/dd7BFHzZiU8?...

Too good to not pass on: youtu.be/q6RTYzkjSS4?...

Found this pic on an article that was on the "Newsbreak" app. As if being a gangster is a GOOD thing? People loved Al Capone...until they didn't. People hung on every word spoken by Maximillian Robspierre....until they didn't. People are fickle. PERIOD.

Is there no one or no way to arrest Elon Musk for what he is doing?! He's NOT the President nor was he elected, nor confirmed as a government official!!

I wish every one of our reps had the fire and integrity of Bernie Sanders. www.youtube.com/live/QWf_b-_...

Another on this morning's session on YouTube: youtu.be/hBf0N8SU43Y?...

Great video that popped up on my YouTube feed. Worth the watch! youtu.be/K8QLgLfqh6s?...

I learned something new today: youtu.be/U9f8IUmwnio?...

Found in a comment section: "Trump is making the entire country feel like they are in a non-consentual relationship with an abusive criminal they cannot escape--and he just shut down the abuse hotlines and shelters." Posted under the screenname "el salvatore" About sums it up.

Spiderman? Captain America? Are you listening? Dr Doom is in the White House and Washington's overrun with criminals. Red Skull is on the loose. Feel free to do what you do best. (In case anyone's wondering, I'm watching a Spiderman episode featuring these guys from 1981.)

Spending exactly ZERO time on the inauguration. Instead bingeing in cute kitty videos, good music videos--and now James and the Giant Peach is running on the living room TV. I couldn't tell you how many times my kids played that vhs tape!

Saw this video just minutes ago. Too good not to share. I liked this particular essay so much--I bought the audio version of the book. youtu.be/B3RjIGaIXdA?...

This just came to my attention... When your doctor asks the date of your last period, just tell them if it’s been regular or irregular. They don’t need specific dates.

Watching President Carter's service. I am furious--WHY ARE WE LOOKING TOWARDS THE INAUGURATION OF A FELON?! At least we can rest in the thought that Trump will NEVER receive such accolades as President Carter. Still doesn't ease the anger I feel. What has happened to this country?

The holidays might be over, but the message is still valid. youtu.be/O3FMV3iugeI?...

This popped up on my YouTube feed--and I watched the entire thing. Frankly I was surprised. It appears that Bernie Sanders cares about a lot more than I realized! Chemicals in our foods are a valid concern. Please watch! youtu.be/0ntGYXO0uSE?...

Shakespeare described the upcoming Presidency and appointed staff perfectly: " Hell is empty and all the devils are here!" (Ariel, The Tempest)

This interview said it best--RFK Jr is a SCIENCE DENIALIST. There's only a few things I agree with him on--namely addressing the chemicals, high amounts of sugar and sodium in foods and promoting healthy diets.The rest is sheer stupidity for the most part. youtu.be/J_fcdwM68Lw?...

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas (albeit it's almost over)!

It's now quite obvious that "Elon Musk's" nefarious nature has moved into my subconcious mind. Last night I dreamed he insisted on buying land that had been declared a local nature preserve, despite the county saying No. I wasn't having it! I was sending messages telling him to get lost!!

God forbid Trump signs up for Bluesky. If he does, I'll be the first to block him! At least that means I won't see his posts. This is getting insane. Whether he's President or not--Trump is dangerous. youtu.be/FW9fhP1DRhs?...

"Meowmie" has once again lost track of time while on Bluesky. The furbabies are furious. Their schedule's been disrupted!

Personally I am pro-life. I recognize that not everyone believes as I do. I struggle with the reality of abortion. I also know that laws do not change hearts. Morality cannot be mandated, as proven by Prohibition. Unlike alcohol abuse, abortion saves lives. www.qasimrashid.com/p/s-carolina...

I hadn't heard this bit of news....till her name was mentioned on Bluesky. www.msn.com/en-us/news/c...
