Thank you for another wonderful discussion! Here's a musical variation on the 'how are you' discussion at the top of the show" (originally about Covid, but all too appropriate today!) www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-Ml... @kimberlyeatkins.bsky.social @barbmcquade.bsky.social @joycewhitevance.bsky.social

I'd love more followers for my weekly comedy songs about news that would otherwise make us cry. Not just for entertainment but to remind us that if we can laugh at them, we can resist & defeat them! My latest is about GOP budget hypocrisy: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKpC...

There's also time to make fun of it, with my latest weekly song! www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKpC...

All of it deserves both outrage and mocking. This week's song is about 2 (Musk taking over and the budget hypocrisy), and I'll tackle Ukraine next! www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKpC...

Yes they shouuld, and they can use this as the theme song for GOP budget hypocrisy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKpC...

OMG I took a couple of days off social media, and what a lovely surprise to see so many new followers thanks to you!! Here's my latest weekly commentary on the news (this one on GOP legislators' hypocrisy about budget cuts, a "Rent" parody): www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKpC...

I'd love to be included - I do weekly topical comedy songs based on the news, usually making fun of the idiots running things right now. Like this one - www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XNY...

I not only agree, I write weekly songs making fun of him. his tech bro oligarchs, and his enablers, like this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XNY...

Wow, I guess true love really does last! (Here's an ode to their 'bro-mance' from 8 years ago, still sadly relevant, and still much in need of mocking!) www.youtube.com/watch?v=c09x...

Maybe he won't, nor his sycophants, but we will - including in song! www.youtube.com/watch?v=c09x...

Once again, so honored to be included! I post weekly topical comedy songs based on the news (yeah, no shortage of material). Usually brand new, but occasionally I re-post a (sadly still relevant) classic - like this from 8 years ago! www.youtube.com/watch?v=c09x...

Aww, thank you! (I hide my age well, and I have a wonderful hairdresser and a fuzzy lens on my videocamera, heehee) And yes, I will continue to put out songs every week (almost always new, but occasionally one from the past that is sadly still relevant . . . ) I really appreciate the support!

OMG I am honored and thrilled. Thank you SO much (and I have to admit, it's also a thrill to be called a girl at my advanced age!)

I would be honored if you'd consider me for future #Resistance packs - I post weekly topical satire songs, poking fun at news that would otherwise make us cry. Here's my latest: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XNY... Thanks!!!

Yep - and here's some musical humor about just one of the whiplash-inducing subjects: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hh7y...

Thank you for this - I didn't think an accurate illustration of these stupid tariffs could also make me laugh out loud, but you did!

Yes!, and we need to find solace/comfort/humor wherever we can. Hope this bit of (darkly comedic) musical reassurance helps: www.youtube.com/watch?v=uErd...

Thank you so much for doing this - I'm thrilled to find so many great folks to follow, and it's also extremely reassuring to see how many of us there are. Pumpkin Spice Palpatine and his maggots do NOT represent all of us!

Hi - I'm new to Bluesky so I don't know how these parties work, but I'm here and would love to meet new folks, especially if my weekly songs might give you all a smile. Here's this week's - www.youtube.com/watch?v=uErd...

As well as a metaphoric kidney stone, which this song hopes will pass! www.youtube.com/watch?v=uErd...

Your wise words inspired me to include them in my latest song, following your example (and that of your #sistersinlaw) to look for some glimmers of hope! www.youtube.com/watch?v=uErd... @jillwine-banks.bsky.social @barbmcquade.bsky.social @kimberlyeatkins.bsky.social

Isn't a co-respondent the 'other party' in an old-fashioned divorce suit?

I already follow you but I've started posting my weekly songs here, and I'd love the help building my following! Here's last week's song, and my newest will come out Friday! www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2Ge...

They say kids learn better when you set things to music. Think this ditty will help Trump supporters realize he has no intention of helping them? www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2Ge...

And here's a musical comment on the new "broligarchy", where Musk's fascist salute is a feature, not a bug: www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2Ge...

He will be very much missed (particularly when his polar opposite takes office). Here's my attempt at a musical tribute: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohtW...

Hi - I'm brand new here but followed you on the 'other' place, posting a new comedy song every week. Here's my latest - hope you enjoy it and thanks in advance for considering me for the next Pack! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDy1... (This one is about RFK Jr. . . . . . )

So glad to find you on this platform! I just joined and will post my weekly songs here instead of in 'the bad place'. Here's a recent one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRpn...

All great!, but how about some diversity? I'm a non-famous, older Jewish woman doing my little bit with weekly satiric songs - and I could certainly use the exposure more than these guys! Here's one from several years ago that's still sadly relevant: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiHx...
