Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human race

In other shutdown news, Atlas Brewing is seeking a injunction against requiring COLAs (Certificates of Label Approval) during the shutdown. You can't distribute beer without an approved COLA, and all approvals are suspended.

They're taking a 1st amendment approach to it. Could be interesting.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Not at all. However, in defense of Contrapoints, her characters are engaging and mostly sympathetic.

I love her bullshit liberal character the most.

That sure was a 45 minute video.

It's about a subject that does need to be addressed, but I sure don't blame anyone for not wanting to watch an almost hour long video by a youtuber.

I totally get people not wanting to watch a 45 minute political youtube video though since most are garbage, but as someone who also rarely watches any youtube videos over 90 seconds long, it's pretty good.

99% of video essays are just some weirdo with an awful voice rambling over a static image of their avatar, possibly unscripted, with maybe a couple pictures sprinkled here or there. ContraPoints is at least a little more, uh, visually interesting.

Contrapoints and hbomberguy are good content creators and considering how many folks are “red pilled” by YouTube I wish we had 100 more of them.

If you like them and media critique I’m going to recommend Lindsey Ellis (cw: long video essays, ADHD no-go)
