If you're not completely plugged in Ron DeSantis, the governor doing this, is the republican front runner for president next year.

The bill is HB 1467 and you can read the whole thing there if you want but long story short. Every schoolboard/librarian/teacher is liable for the media in the school. It must be approved, cataloged, and posted publicly so that any parent (or adult in that county) can dispute a book on the bounds that it "...contains content that is pornographic... is not suited to student needs... or is inappropriate for the grade level..."

If that sounds vague.... yeah. It's supposed to be. This will be a tool they'll use to bludgeon anything they don't like. And again. ANY adult in the county can claim they don't like a book for whatever reason. Those reports will be reviewed by a committee and will be spread to other schools to follow suit.

So what we see here is a lot of teachers/schools pulling books preemptively while catalogs are made so they can't be held liable for them later.

Ayy, he know I'm really square business, I pull up, the AMG tinted workin' him out, he sweatin' like it's been hours, it only been a few minutes he say he toxic, I said, "Okay, well, I'm poison," spit in my mouth, I enjoy it talk my shit, I'ma pull a him on him, don't play, I am not one of them (Ah)

Will incumbent Scunt Brear (D) running on a platform of tepid social justice and continuing economic austerity defeat challenger Brocklus Squelch (R) running on a platform of social fascism and increasing economic austerity? Brear has come under fire for posing for a photo with a homeless person in September despite his state's recently passed "Kill The Homeless" law which he voted for, while Squelch's eligibility as a candidate has been drawn into question after it was discovered that he's currently on trial for 87 counts of first degree murder. All polls point to the race being a 50/50 toss-up.

Cuba is genuinely such an inspiring and beautiful country. It's not just that its people passed a referendum to legalize gay marriage and adoption, but that it came after a year of consultation and modifications by Cuban citizens and activists which made it go way beyond just gay marriage to being one of the most progressive family laws in the world, and was itself enabled by Cuba's 2019 constitutional referendum which was also voted on by its citizens. Cuba is in lockstep with its people and that is why its revolution persists even after 60+ years of sanctions, invasions, and destabilizations by the US empire.
