I don’t know if it’s common but in my local library, since I can remember, has always had a huge table full of “banned” books that had a big sign saying “banned books”. Even though IL has made book bans illegal I hope they still do this bc every one should read them.

So, do embryos count in the census? Are they considered whole people or only three-fifths? Can a woman collect child support for each one? What about welfare? Are they tax write offs? Can storage fees be written off as well? Actually, you can launch an opposition party in Russia, that's one of the symptoms of sudden death syndrome. A truly great library contains something in it to offend everyone. - Jo Godwin Twitter, now your X.

I am 55 years old and every 10 years I have to have a measles booster because I cannot hold an immunity to it and you best believe I make damn sure I get it done every 10 years because measles is a bitch and to get it as an adult will most definitely kill you

What happens when a frozen embryo turns 18?

TW: My trans child was bullied daily at school. So much so that they are currently in a long term residential mental health facility after several suicide attempts at school. When I went to see the principal, he basically told me to go fuck myself and that I “should consider yourself lucky I still let your child in my school w/ all the problems they cause” (Having the ambulance come to assist my unresponsive child is a “problem”). I live in a very conservative rural area of central Minnesota. There are some small community supports but those in “power” here, administrators, police, school boards, city council, etc are all maga idiots that hate queer kids. And it shows in the school.

Hey as a kid who was bullied right after Columbine--there was definitely a period in time when the kids who were the targets of bullies were treated like ticking time bombs. Some administrations took their sweet time thinking to prevent the bullying first instead of putting kids like me in an in-school suspension after I had been bullied and I vented my frustration. Thankfully it IS better now from what I see. But the growing pains were definitely felt.

Tom is just fucking with me now with the, "Pew-Tin," "Pooh-Tin" thing!

The Trump shoes have already lost 75% of their value and are now selling for $100 + $7.50 S&H. Which is exactly what everyone that isn't an ignorant cultist knew would happen.
