Unapologetic about the white socks.

What happens when your School Board majority tells district staff to rely on a list like BookLooks to curate your library and reading lists over the advice of trained professionals?
Well, you temporarily ban teaching Jane Eyre like Hernando did last month until a teacher decided to ask why.

Always loved Calvin and Hobbes but the day I realised that it wasn't just talking tiger & kid but Calvin's stuffed toy he lives in this alternate reality with while navigating the everyday world was when I understood this is one of the greatest works of literature in history of the English language

The indie bookstore around the corner had this sign. So I went inside and bought 2 books from the banned book section. Support local small businesses. Read banned books. Drink your Ovaltine.

I think fiction is kind of cool because it inspires people in ways that real life can't

bumblebees are inspirational creatures. Everyone who sees them thinks they have no business flying, science agrees they have no business flying, and they fly everywhere anyway because they want to fly and don't give a damn what you think.

sometimes I feel like people who freak out about keeping science fiction and fantasy separate and distinct are like that little kid who doesn't want the peas and carrots to touch on their plate.
It's all imaginative fiction, folks.

The year is 2035. I meet President AOC in the Oval Office. "You've done well," she says. "By telling men to dress gay, you've lowered the population rate by 90%, thereby reducing carbon emissions." She slides me a manilla envelope. I can now afford a home in a walkable neighborhood
