Randy Rainbow: The Terrifying, Tolerance-Promoting 'Beauty and the Beast' (video for NYTs)

According to Randy's Tweet about this, "I was asked by @nytimes what I thought of the new tolerance-promoting Beauty & the Beast. Don't worry - I told them" and he certainly did and in his own unique and awesome (IMO) way.

I only just discovered him the other night when another DU'er posted one of his videos. I was up until 3am watching them and laughing my ass off.

before the election and I thank goodness I did because his videos help keep me (semi) sane through all this Trump bull.

I watched an interview with him a few days ago and when I learned that he's basically a one man show doing all the video work (self taught yet) as well my admiration increased 10 fold.

He is helping us to survive this nightmare. I wish I could thank him personally.

Have you seen most of his other videos? They are hysterical! We should really play him up here because he's amazingly talented.

I'd love to see him become even more well known with other Dems/Liberals. I'm a big believer in our need for humor to help us deal with all sorts of stresses. It's certainly helped me get through some very stressful and dark personal times more than a time or two.

This particular video is only on NYTs site ATM, I checked FB and YouTube and it wasn't there. I figure it may 'belong' to NYT since its an op-ed for them though.
