Meidas Touch (a victory lap)

Now This News – a Jon Ossoff video (about 6 minutes) and a vid on the work of artists in India

This is a parody of Avenger: Endgame which may need a hanky alert. I hope the embed works I’ve never tried a direct embed from C&L before.

Not much dialogue, but – Trump: If you take a look at the states we’ve won, and then look at the margins we won them by, frankly, we did win this election. Biden: Will you shut up, man. Obama: We can’t just imagine a better future. We’ve got to fight for it. Sanders: Is that everyone? Yang: What, you wanted more? Biden: Now, every vote must be counted. No one’s going to take our democracy away from us….Avengers!

This is for Lona (not that she hasn’t already seen it – I’m confident she has – but share on her behalf, so to speak.

Apparently this is an actual movie trailer. I’d love to see the movie!

A blast from the past

And, of course, Keith

  1. I have not finished watching all yet but I noticed this one at the end of Avengers: Endgame.  You have to figure that a proud Canuck would agree with this man’s sentiments! And although Canada has a left of centre government, the Province of BC does have a social democrat government with a majority (newly re-elected).

    • I saw this too and also loved it.  I’m not sure why I didn’t add it – but I do know that’s why I started checking “Open Thread” along with “Politics” as a category – so that people who find something I missed can add it.  Thanks for this one!

      (And to anyone who doesn’t want to cope with embedding, give us a link and if at all possible an administrator will change it to an embed when we see it.)

  2. “Assholes – A Theory”

    Zuckerberg might know how to apologize for F\/CKING  UP royally …

    ZUCKERBERG

    “But it’s clear now we didn’t do enough to prevent these tools from being used for harm as well.  That goes for fake news, foreign interference in elections and hate speech, as well as developers and data privacy.  We didn’t take a broad enough view of our responsibility and that was a big mistake.  It was my mistake, and I’m sorry.  I started Facebook. I run it, and I’m responsible for what happens here.”

    But he doesn’t have a CLUE (or de$ire) WRT how to correct it and do what’s right and honorable.

    (I despise that little prick for what’s he allowed Facebook to become: A glorified 4 Chan & 8 Chan social media purveyor for the KKK, white supremacists, QAnon, Trumpkins, etc.)

    • I couldn’t agree with you more on Zuckerberg.  (I hope I gave you enough dialog to enjoy the Avengers.)

    • The only reason Fuckerberg is apologizing now is that the Putin-Trump* money train has dried up.  If the Reich gets a new Fuhrer, who loves treason, it will be business as usual.  With Fakebook, the only way to win is not to play!  UNPLUG!!

  3. We had some big celebrations in Atlanta over the weekend. The beeping and cheering were non-stop!

  4. Thanks, Joanne, especially for the 9News video, which I hadn’t seen, BTW.
    While Channel 9 isn’t as (Murdoch) bad as Channel 10 or SKY because it goes free to air, it comes close, so I don’t watch it. ABC News is truly independent and my favourite. This video is a good example of 9News’ “friendly” approach of our right-wing government. Scomo, our PM Scott Morrison, held back very long with his reaction to the Biden/Harris win because he was great brown-nosed buddies with Trump, especially where climate-change denial was concerned. So Scomo was put under a lot of pressure from Labor to change his stance on emission targets now that Biden was elected. Nine’s “Scomo immediately congratulated Biden and invited him…” was pure fabrication, it took Scomo days to get over himself, mourn the loss of his buddy and congratulate Biden.

    Keith: It’s a scam! Ya think?

  5. All good videos. 
    Love KO, and his yelling. He’s awesome! 
    Thanks, Joanne for posting. 

  6. Great choice of celebration vids!  Thanks, JD! 35

    Keith… LMAO!
