Oh baby, baby

I missed One Night Fandoms: A Tribute to Yuletide by eruthros and thingswithwings when it was first posted, but, oh man, how awesome is this vid? CARE BEARS OMG. And I'm so impressed that not only does it have a clever concept and clips from a zillion different sources, but it's actually a good vid that flows really well from clip to clip and section to section. I can't even imagine how long it must take to find the right footage from so many different sources.

The upshot of this, of course, is that "Angel of the Morning" is now the Yuletide theme song in my head, and I have the urge to start humming it whenever anybody says "Yuletide". And people say "Yuletide" quite a lot this time of year.

In other news, the OTW is having a donation drive, and now you get gifts for donating $50 or $100 or more. The dancing lemurs compel you. Donations make a lot of awesome things possible, and the travel mug looks pretty cool.

There is no lasting hope in violence

Tonight's tv viewing:

• American Masters: Joan Baez: How Sweet the Sound


• Criminal Minds: Hopeless

Little bit of a jarring transition between fifty years of folk music and pacifist activism and the bloody brutality of psychopaths presented for our entertainment, but at least Criminal Minds is always there with the apt quote.
