[ID: A TikTok by @asfvision.
[A man with a white cane stands in front of the Musse Du Louvre and addresses the camera.] I’m blind, let’s go to the Louvre! I’m not gonna be able to see anything. They’re supposed to have this tactile room with Braille and sculptures. Normally, I do not like art museums.
[Inside the museum, the man holds up a booklet.] There’s a Braille tactile map!
[He touches the pages showing the Mona Lisa.] I can actually feel the Mona Lisa! I didn’t know this was gonna be possible. This key tells you what each material is. The Braille’s in French, but that’s OK.
[He holds the booklet up to a different page.] I get to keep it with me the whole tour so I can see what everything feels like.
[He closes the booklet with a flourish.] To the Tactile Room!
[He uses his cane to navigate to the room.] I think this is it.
[He touches, then reads a display sign.] It is, dude, there’s Braille on the signs. “Le Froid du bronze.” It’s made out of bronze!
[He touches the statue of a girl’s bust on a rotating platform.] Does that mean the statue-- Yooo. Oh my gosh, the head, and the nose, and the ears. Are these pigtails?
[He puts on headphones connected to another display, starts the audio, and interacts with the physical signage.] Wait, what do these do? Louis XIV? You are a splendid statue.
[He begins touching another statue of a man on a horse. He is so excited he drops his bag and cane.] What is this? Oh, it’s a horse! Oh, this is what it was talking about.
Cameraperson: Yeah.
Man: This is Louis on the horse.
Cameraperson: Feel his hair.
Man: Bro! Look at those curls.
[The man is touching some kind of stone display.] What is this?
[He is at another display, wearing the headphones for descriptive audio and interacting with the signage.] This is really cool because it describes everything, and then you get to touch it, and there’s so much Braille!
“Can you feel the wings on my back?”
[The man is touching a small cherub statue.] Yeah, I do feel the wings on your back.
[The man holds up the booklet, and energetically marches forward, going up stairs.] To the Mona Lisa!
[The camera cuts to the foot of a statue, and the man goes to touch it.]
Cameraperson: Feel this guy’s toes.
Man: Oh my god.
[The man is walking through the museum.] This place feels unreal.
[The man is holding up the booklet and touching the Mona Lisa page, standing back from a crowd viewing the painting.] Looks cool!
Cameraperson: Wooo!
Man: Mona! Lisa! Mona! Lisa!
[Camera cuts to the cameraperson, a woman holding a young child.] See, it’s over there, girl.
[The man is walking through the museum, briefly showing the sign for a disabled access elevator, then boarding the elevator.] They’re putting us in this private elevator. I really love accessibility.
[Cut to him in the elevator, briefly looking up at the glass ceiling.] This is the coolest elevator I’ve ever been in. Feels like we’re in a hot air balloon. This is so Louvre-ly.
[The man stands on the top floor of the museum and flashes a peace sign.] That was one Louvre!
End ID.]
every moment of every day i am thinking about this tiktok
Lumpfish come in a variety of shapes and colors.
[He scoops up the fish, it spits water and he turns it toward the camera]
This one is stumpy and green. Very beautiful, very powerful.
[He picks up another fish and turns it toward the camera]
This is what a normal lumpfish looks like. It is more elongated, but still a vibrant blue color. Very beautiful, very powerful.
[He picks up another fish and turns it toward the camera]
This is one of the stumpiest ones we have. Its hump is very high. It is very stumpy, but yet very beautiful, and very powerful.
[He pans over a lot of fish, all looking up at the camera]
My fish army is ever growing, and soon I will over throw the world. Very beautiful, very powerful.
because of this tiktok, i frequently murmur "very beautiful, very powerful" at myself, and i cannot recommend it enough.

This is a stupid conversation! and I'm not going to continue it! literally so fucking correct
What I’m really proud of is the fact that he made SURE the audience understood why the caller was being an idiot. He made a PERFECT comparison, gave the caller an honest chance to re-evaluate and change his mind. His point landed, everyone knew it, even the caller (note his pause and almost hesitancy after being asked).
But when the caller decided to bulldoze on anyway, because god forbid actually listen to the other person in the conversation, the expert cut him off and refused his time. And good for him.
[VD: A tweet by @ g33kgurli, tweeted at 9:47 PM on Dec 17, 2021. It reads, "Perhaps the best clap back to antivaxxers and antimaskers." Attached is a video from The Thom Hartmann Program, where Hartmann is talking with a caller. The conversation goes as follows:
Caller: Hey Thom. Uh, I was listening to you for the last hour so, um, I heard survival of the fittest. Um, you know some of us choose not to vaccinate and uh--
Hartmann: You're nuts, Nicholas.
Caller: --because we work very hard about staying fit, eating healthy, and our natural immune system.
Hartmann: So Nicholas if you're so healthy, would you have unprotected sex with somebody who has syphilis or gonorrhea?
Caller: You're missing the point.
Hartmann: No, I'm not missing the point. They're contagious diseases. Would you have unprotected sex with somebody who has syphilis and gonorrhea and not worry about it because you're so healthy?
Caller: [pause] No, I wouldn't do that.
Hartmann: Okay, then why would you expose yourself to covid without having some protection?
Caller: Because the protection is my natural immunity.
Hartmann: No, it's not. Tell that--
Caller: Yes, yes, my natural immune system--
Hartmann: Tell that to eight hundred thousand dead Americans. Nicholas, this is- this is a stupid conversation and I'm not going to continue it.

Rich Siegel, Jewish resident of Teaneck, NJ, at Township Council meeting
[Transcription:
My name is Rich Siegel. I'm a 25 year homeowner here in Teaneck. I'm Jewish. The reason that I'm telling you that I'm Jewish is because I have a concern about something that's going on in the Jewish community. On march 10th, there is scheduled to be an Israeli real estate sales event at the Keter Torah synagogue. That event violates both domestic law and international law. Violates domestic law because we had a Civil Rights Act in 1965 and a Fair Housing Act in 1968. We don't allow real estate events to be for Whites only, for Jews only, or anybody only. Now, as Jews, we don't get to fly under the radar and break the law and hide it in a synagogue. It violates international law because West Bank settlement homes are going to be available for sale at this real estate event. On the website it lists three different West Bank settlements. Those settlements are in and of themselves illegal by international law. If we allow this sale to go through, we are enabling a local synagogue to violate both domestic anti-discrimination laws and international law. Now, there's other reasons we shouldn't allow it. There's a genocide going on right now. I don't care who that offends. More than 35,000 people have been killed. More than 13,000 children have been killed. People in this community are in deep mourning. People in this community are angry. I'm angry. What this real estate event is going to do is it's gonna fan the flames. If it goes forward, there will be a demonstration. I know there's going to be a demonstration because I'm going to organise it.

An important message from the National Lawyers Guild - Detroit & Michigan Chapter
source
<older man and older woman chatting amiably at a table, their conversation is just on the edge of intelligible>
Denise: Oh, hello!
Bill: We were just talking about you kids.
D: I’m Denise Heberle (HEB-er-lee)…
B: And I’m Bill Goodman.
D: Together we’ve been fighting fascism for over 50 years.
B: And so much has changed over those 50 years, such as the ingredients to a successful firebomb!
D (cheerily): And the glass that bank windows are made of!
B: But there’s one thing that hasn’t changed over 50 years, something that is so important to tell you kids who are new to this movement.
Both: Shut the fuck up.
D: You’re sitting in the police transport van after a protest?
B: Shut the fuck up. In a holding cell, with your comrades?
D: Shut the fuck up. Cop knocks on your door?
B: Shut the fuck up.
D: Texting on an unsecured device?
B: Shut the fuck up. Pulled over by the cops after a protest?
D: Shut the fuck up. Cop just asking about your day?
B: Shut the fuck up. Feds call your mom?
D: Tell your mother to shut the fuck up.
B: Now. Repeat after me. When the cops come calling, what do you do?
(Cut to Bill standing with eight kids)
Kids: Shut the fuck up!

the wording on this Jack russell vid beamed a permanent mark onto my brain
[Transcript:
Hi, this is how I wrap presents for people with lower fine motor control; it could be older people, younger people, people with disabilities.
You can use ribbon you already have for wrapping present, and I measured around the item I am about to wrap leaving a little bit of room for the handle.
I taped the beginning end of the ribbon to the box and then loop back the extra ribbon to make a handle, and it should look something like this
You can wrap pretty much like you normally do as long as you make sure that the handle is exposed .
You could even tie something onto the handle for extra support
All done!

You don’t know how much effort I went to to find this
[a TikTok video by @deafcarguy. A man with a beard faces the camera. You can see him from the chest up. He is wearing an orange shirt and a backwards baseball cap. He is drinking from a beer can.
He signs with one hand at the camera, with text overlain:
"I'm reading a horror book in Braille"
"Something terrible's about to happen"
The camera zooms in on his face starting intently as he signs
"I can feel it"
He takes a big drink and the video ends]
