GEORGIA – Now This News – Long but full of information. Narrated by Natalie Portman

GEORGIA – Really American (sorry, no CC)

GEORGIA – Meidas Touch

Robert Reich on “Normal” – It’s all here – clear as day, and in a nutshell.

Now This News – I personally would not call the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. just “this church” but it really could have been any chunch which cares.

Mrs. Betty Bowers summing up 2020

Founders Sing – Silent Night

Henri – “The Cat Is Sat”

GEORGIA – Jon Ossoff – “Priority”

GEORGIA – The Lincoln Project – No one here is going to agree with this. But they aren’t talking to us. They’re talking to Georgia Republicans, and they’re doing it well. More power to them.

Republicans for the Rule of Law (CC in Korean – no idea why.)

Beau on the right tools. I’d like to just address his Tshirt, because it’s, to the best of my knowledge, unique to him (well, to his merch.) Of course, it spells out the word “evolve;” it’s not much of a stretch to see the 3’s as reversed E’s. But why the 303? Well, that refers to his “Rule 3o3,” which is one of his prime directives, if you will. It goes, “If you have the means, then you have the responsibility.” Something to think about.

Henri Introduction

Henri “Paw de Deux”

The word “carol” in English got applied to Christmas music almost exclusively, but originally, it meant “round dance.” And there are multiple countries which have carols that still reflect vigorous dance. (So do we, actually – “Deck the Hall” comes to mind.) The Swedish one a few days ago is an example. Here’s another, this one from Catalonia. (“Fum” is onomatopoeia for strumming a guitar)

Now This News – CoViD reality

Now This News – I saw the tweet thread – but seeing and hearing her is better.

The Lincoln Project – Mitch’s Tears

Steve Schmidt on MSNBC (Nicolle Wallace). Not pretty. But real.

At least THIS is delightful.

Beau – Term Limits. I was opposed to term limits already, but he has some good reasons to be opposed I never even thought of.

Keith from yesterday – and he’s right, dammit.

Georgia – Jon Ossoff – Breaks my heart, but MUST be said.

Meidas Touch – getting a little giddy – but I love it (full screen to read captions)

Chris Hayes – Very clearly stated and supported. Not really anything we don’t know, but it needs to be said.

Dr. Fauci – Please not he is not willing to go farther than “some degree of normality that is close to where we were” by the end of next year if 75-80% of the population is vaccinated. IF.

Henri – Cat Litterature [sic]

Beau – Texas. I think he’s wrong about Trump supporters as a group. Some will, yes. Not all. Probably not even a majority.

Let all mortal flesh keep silence (Greek) Yesterday’s was so fun and silly, today’s is more serious.

Keith is running so late now I think I’ll always be a day late. But he doesn’t get old, so…

American Bridge – GEORGIA (2) (the CC on the second one is in Korean and I couldn’t change them. Auto translate didn’t work.)

Meidas Touch – Georgia – Well, this is a shocker. Did you ever expect to agree with Matt Gaetz on ANYTHING?

Michigan Attorney General

Beau – Sometimes shining a light on facts is more powerful than throwing shade. This is complex but extremely interesting. (We all need more civics.)

GEORGIA

GEORGIA – Tweet with photo from Senate “debate” for Georgia runoff. (And video)


GEORGIA – Now This News – Ossoff on Climate

Meidas Touch – Parody of Queen “Somebody to Love”

Kaavan is flapping his ears! That’s a sign of a happy elephant. Also his tail. Wonderful. (short version, then long version with more detail)

Beau – “I’m looking at you, Georgia.”

Now This News – Bickering Trees

Old – very old – Irish Christmas carol. “The Wexford Carol”

Now This News – in case anyone missed this news

Five and a half minutes on citizenship, including some new test questions

Beau says this so well – at least I think so –

The Trumpty Dumpty Cycle – Episode 4

Keith – from yesterday, posted late (quite late)

A somewhat unusual carol – you may have heard it, but it never seems to make the lists.
