I actually had some republican friends who believe this furry myth. Along with the evils of DEI, denial of global warming, and the election being stolen, furries-in-the-schools is now part of the brainwashing.
School districts are passing "civility" policies in regards to public comments at school board meetings. This district did so after a "concerned citizen" espoused the lies of furries in schools, etc.

Whether it's Joe Lieberman going MAGA or Tim Kaine caving in on ACA, both vice-presidential nominees turned out to be assholes.

A massive slap in the face. Once again, the moderate wing of our party, the one captured by the insurance industry, lobbyists and DNC/consultation institutions--sold us out.

I *really* appreciate how @tomesandtextiles.bsky.social responded when she learned the viral "Moms for Liberty won none of their (contested) elections!" was misinformation. This was classy and helpful for those who also spread that without any verification.

Moms for Liberty (aka racist Nazi moms who need to get a life)

went 0 for 32 last night.

Every single one of their candidates lost.

All of them.

Teeee heee! 🤣🤪

This christo-fascist Nazi saying "That's what history teaches us" is just precious.
Johnson: What happened last night was blue states and blue cities voted blue. We all saw that coming. No one should read too much into last night's election results. Off year elections are not indicative of what's to come. That’s what history teaches us.

Made the mistake of surfing to "Morning Joe" on MSNBC this morning. Got an earful from the moderate-serious, semi-fossilized wing of the democratic party. "Woke is dead, something something, both sides something something..." Just think of the fortune spent keeping such crap on life-support!

A fantastic spooky season surprise!

Instead of joining the extinct species list, the wolf spider has crept back onto the Isle of Wight after 40 years of ghosting. 🕷️🕸️
