It was never just about schools, it was never just about libraries, and it isn't actually about the books.
It's about finding a way to banish entire people, entire ideas, out of society, back into the closet or worse.

A new bill in the Texas Legislature, authored by Rep. Nate Schatzline, would allow businesses to be held liable if a minor reports damages from "obscene" books.

The U.S is the wealthiest country in the history of the world. We should not have the highest rate of child poverty of nearly every major country on earth. We should have the lowest.
It's time to end this international embarrassment & create an economy that works for all.

Transgenic means that genes from 1 organism have been put into another. We make transgenic mice to understand how genes influence biological processes. We make transgenic plants to make them more nutrient rich. We make transgenic bacteria so they make medicine for us. It's wide-ranging & v. useful.

The economics profession presents an idealised version of the economy, as beautiful as Dorian Gray’s unchanging face.
The actual economy is increasingly ugly, like his portrait: marked by oligarchs and the underclass, the looting of poor countries, and the industrial-scale gobbling up of the planet

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

I can think of no more important insight for our times than that of Audre Lorde: "My silences had not protected me.
Your silence will not protect you."
Your silence will not protect you."
