Mr. Hbombingperson Esquire had an epic charity stream for Mermaids UK, an organisation that helps young people with LGBTQ+ issues with therapy and support.

I found the entire affair very inspiring and positive, and couldn't help but make a video about it...a week later, cos everything takes me so goddamned long.

What I cover here:
- What the stream was.
- What happened.
- The fact that Chelsea Manning is amazing.
- Who Graham Linehan is and why he's trash.
- General thoughts on the whole thing and the implications for lefty YouTube.

...plus, other stuffs. Probably.

Good times!
