A lovely simple rendition of Cinderella only with penguins, The Tender Tale of Cinderella Penguin (1981) went on to a Academy Award nomination and inspiring a children's book. Janet Perlman's (1954 - ) brilliant rendition brought to life with classical music.

Fascists Fear Mockery Most. Trump Proved It.
ABC caved after Trump’s FCC threatened them and Nexstar chased a $6.2 billion merger. This is not just cancel culture. It is blatant corruption.

There are actually quite a few undocumented Russians in the US.
Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them?
Or just the brown people?

James Carville Is Right to Panic — Because Trump’s Next Power Grab Doesn’t Need a Mob
Forget Jan 6th. Trump’s next move is smarter, and far more dangerous: use the courts, AI & right-wing militias to erase millions of Americans from the vote — legally. It’s not a theory. It’s a plan.
