In the early 70s Sesame Street was created with an eye towards educating poor, inner-city children for free, and became a massive hit with all children. In 2016, faced with going off the air forever after facing conservative efforts to destroy public broadcasting since basically its beginning, new episodes became a timed exclusive for premium cable network HBO. In 2022 HBO Max, newly merged with and taken over by reality TV channel Discovery, removed Sesame Street episodes and spin-offs from streaming as a tax write-off and scheme to avoid paying residuals.
Sesame Street's official YouTube channel is uploading the episodes for free, btw. A lot of creators are rebelling against this bullshit.
Sesame Street on PBS KIDS. Play games with Elmo, Big Bird, Abby and all of your Sesame Street friends. Watch videos and print coloring pages
As always, America, PBS has you and your kids' backs.
I also want to put in a plug for the American Archive of Public Broadcasting, spearheaded by GBH in Boston to preserve and make available public funded programming from around the country. More than 7000 public television and radio programs are available to stream through the website, with more than 40000 hours of programming archived and available to researchers and educators through the Library of Congress and GBH itself.

I can't stress enough how much I miss StumbleUpon
StumbleUpon once sent me to a supercut of Lion King, Lion King 1 1/2, and Lion King II, the main edit being that the scenes of Lion King and Lion King 1 1/2 were interspersed so that they happened in the order they actually happened.
stumbleupon not existing anymore can be directly traced to a dramatic decline in my mental health, I could do a thesis on it.
bestie stumbleupon very much still exists its just called cloudhiker now. i use it all the time.
mini compilation of suggestions from the replies:
The Bored Button - "Press the Bored Button and be bored no more."
The Useless Web
Cloudhiker - "Discover the most interesting, weird and awesome websites of the Internet" (not really a rebrand, it's a different person running it but they have the same intention in mind)
Astronaut.io - "These videos come from YouTube. They were uploaded in the last week and have titles like DSC 1234 and IMG 4321. They have almost zero previous views. They are unnamed, unedited, and unseen (by anyone but you)."
Marginalia - "This is an independent DIY search engine that focuses on non-commercial content, and attempts to show you sites you perhaps weren't aware of in favor of the sort of sites you probably already knew existed."
I used to love take me to a useless website
star wars is about coruscant
every part of star wars, from the poverty of the outer rim to the separatist movement to the formation of the empire in reaction to the breakdown of republic control over the galaxy, is a consequence of the existence of a planetary megarome so specialized it cannot function without thousands of client states. once the empire falls the new republic can either (a) speedrun the late-republic-to-empire transition again just to hold itself together or (b) splinter into its constituent parts along the same fracture lines that caused the clone wars, in which case the fallout of coruscant losing the position of power that guarantees the massive imports necessary to sustain a population of trillions on a planet with no natural biosphere should be apocalyptic. either your post-rotj story is about that or it is about the inevitable new fascist movement arising from the galactic core acting in the interests of its own survival before that power slips away. the sequels are nonsensical because they do not understand this. what the fuck is hosnian prime
coruscant stands on the shoulders of billions of enslaved chromium miners
coruscanti tumblr user: our education system is so bad i didn't know mining slaves were sentient until i was 20 years old 😔🥺
so i took a while to really get into star wars, so when i did, my main association with a city-planet (and the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about coruscant) is this:
"Now this city, grim old city, it starts to grow. And when it meets with other towns, other cities, it takes them into itself, absorbs them, until soon enough there’s no land left, so the city spreads outwards into the sea, and when there’s no sea left, the city spreads upwards into the sky, and when there is no sky left... It burrows inwards. Like a cancer into the bowels of the planet. And eventually, there is nothing but the city. And so generations live and generations die in the warrens and the tunnels and even the lower levels of the surface, and they never see the sun. "
- Ulysses Dies at Dawn by the Mechanisms
like, the idea that a city-planet could be anything other than horror is crazy to me!

We know that we cannot take the current President's statements at face value. But in light of Trump's recent speech where he claimed that he's "saved" NASA and always supported them (which isn't true), I wanted to elaborate on some of this.
He's slashed the budget, forced removal of DEI history and contributions at NASA, and caused many NASA workers' unemployment. I have worked closely with people in these spheres and know that the budget cuts have deeply jeopardized the future space missions, space exploration, and space science.
My close friends and colleagues, especially those relying on DEI programs, have had such a difficult time during this administration, and we still are. This program found some success with Artemis II and beyond in spite of the current administration's lack of support and lack of funding.
You can read more details here.
This is all the more reason you guys have to stop circulating shit about Artemis II being “US army propaganda.” Along with that it just isn’t, all those arguments are various forms of associating this with Trump “but leftishly.” In fact I don’t think he should get credit for a program from an agency he’s done everything he can to kneecap at every turn. You don’t have to give it to him!
The White House's proposed budget for 2027 slashes an additional 3.8 Billion (yes, with a B) from NASA's budget to fund his dumbassery in Iran. He does not give a flying fuck.
