Maïa Vidal (your kid sister): Poison (by ifoundamaia)
I’m loving her music right now.
La Caccina The Parting Glass (by LaCaccina)
La Caccina, your voices slay me. Amazing women.
Paulo Freire: liberation theology and Marx (subtitled) (by suicidadealuguel)
Subtitles aren’t perfect, but it’s an excellent video.
[TRIGGER WARNING: FOX NEWS, HATEFUL CONSERVATIVE LIES]
Fox Business blasts The Muppets for brainwashing America’s kids with anti-corporate, liberal agenda (by jlandryst7)
That’s the title given by the uploader. This is just even more motivation for me to watch the Muppets movie. Also, if you can get past the awful messes that are the hosts and show trial of the film, listen to the Occidental College Politics Professor, Caroline Heldman. She hits the nail on the head, and somehow manages to keep her cool.
[Flash 10 is required to watch video]
It’s time.
Yesterday, GetUp! released this promotional video for marriage equality in Australia. It’s crazy how a simple two-minute video can immediately leave you a little misty-eyed. For more information/sign their petition, click here.

In Santa Cruz. So awesome.
View Larger Embodiment: A Portrait of Queer Life in America is a collection of short films and photographs which seek to explore the varied experiences of queer life in America. They’ve spent the last year on the road, collecting new images, video, and words, which they’ve compiled into an interactive gallery exhibit and (just announced!) website:
This morning (yep, exactly one year from the day we met our Kickstarter goal) we launched the new, interactive, multimedia exhibition of Embodiment: A Portrait of Queer Life in America!
Definitely worth browsing their galleries. Tons of vivid portraits and incredibly moving stories — plus ample evidence of an extraordinary commitment from the creators. So spectacular!
Twelve thousand years ago these jellyfish became trapped in a natural basin on the island when the ocean receded, Jacob explains. With no predators amongst them for thousands of years, they evolved into a new species that lost most of their stinging ability as they no longer had to protect themselves.
All these awesome underwater videos must be a sign that summer’s here. This would be an incredible experience.
