I want to make sure you haven’t missed these great videos!

When Trump said it was a “scary time for young men in America” earlier this month, artist Lynzy Lab responded with this song about how scary America has always been for women. She manages to be both accurate and funny.

It’s a really scary time for dudes right now. So I wrote a song about it. Go #vote friends! #TheResistance #1Thing @ACLU @WC4SJ #letsmakesomenoise pic.twitter.com/hz7E3xMRqR

Rapper Mysonne was in Washington, D.C., for the Kavanaugh protests, during which he was arrested. Shortly before the arrest, he made this powerful statement about men’s responsibility to change rape culture.

I also appreciate the interview he did with The Fader after the video went viral, talking about how he only recently got over his defensiveness and started to look at male behavior differently.

Finally, actor Samuel L. Jackson is ready to do anything — ANYTHING — to help Democratic congressional candidates. He’s scooping litter for Angie Craig in Minnesota …

I got lots of shit to deal with, but I don’t mind helping out @AngieCraigMN — this election is THAT important. https://t.co/byhvG2zmdC pic.twitter.com/UbpkfgSPmg

… and waiting for the cable guy at Colin Allred’s house in Texas.

Volunteer this fall. What the fuck are you waiting for? I’m waiting for @ColinAllredTX’s cable guy. https://t.co/byhvG2zmdC pic.twitter.com/qTBSIRkobR

I’m going to be working at a poll site on Election Day and it’s a 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. shift! I’m wondering if Sam can come by my place and walk Edward the dog a couple of times. Sam, call me!
