Funny thing, I’m currently living in China and they censor youtube now. Is this on gmail or anything else too?

Meanwhile, keep up the good work, and judging by the title “everything will be fine” I especially thank you for the rare but necessary bout of optimism in this day and age

I think it’s on BoingBoingTV, but I’m not sure. Email Richard Metzger. Or I can.
