It's great to see my friend Aaron Baker quoted in this story!

As to more substantive thoughts --- my own thoughts on the new Social Studies standards are that thanks to SCOTUS (in the Mahmoud v. Taylor decision), parents with religious objections to the standards (including Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Native American traditionalists, Wiccans, as well as many Christians) can and should object to this new curriculum and use their power as parents to opt their kids out of this curriculum which promotes Christian Nationalism, in violation of the parents' and student's religious beliefs.

>>“This law forces religious organizations to choose between following their values or falling in line. It forces family members — spouses, siblings, even parents — to fear that simply living under the same roof as a loved one without legal status could land them behind bars,” read a statement by Spring Miller of the Tennessee Immigrant & Refugee Rights Coalition, which is among a group of organizations providing legal representation. <<

#CBS News did nothing wrong. But its parent company still paid price. That's the moral of #Paramount settlement story. And it's a story that keeps repeating itself in the #Trump era. #Paramount confirmed that it is paying $16 million to make Trump's legally dubious #60Minutes #lawsuit go away. Paramount did not agree to any apology — which was a major point of tension. But it did agree to help fund Trump's future #presidential #library. #censorship #law #maga #journalism #firstamendment #lies

“Time is running short, & the Department’s patience is wearing thin,” read a June 17 letter from top #DOJ ofcls Harmeet K. Dhillon & Gregory W. Brown, both #UVA alumni. “Dramatic, wholesale changes are required, now, to repair what appears to be a history of clear abuses & breaches of our nation’s laws & our Constitution by the University of Virginia under its current administration.”

Joy-Ann Reid dives into the intense scrutiny facing Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic mayoral nominee in NYC, highlighting how both parties misuse his artistic expression against him. The attack, spearheaded by Congressman Ogles, reflects a fear-based political climate that often misrepresents legitimate critique. Instead of focusing on meaningful change, the conversation is mired in unfounded accusations.

In light of this legal ruling, I hope every #Mennonite and #Quaker family with kids in public schools objects to compulsory patriotic indoctorination.

I also recommend that families with objections to #heteronormativity raise their objections, on religious grounds.

Why not? It's only fair.

1337 $#!+ I did that

Let's make #porn really forbidden and thus even more desirable to the very children who are sometimes the ones who are teaching their parents how to use a VPN. Let's make Airdrop and USB thumb drives great again. Omg, what if kids start hiding pictures snipped from magazines behind their math homework in a Pee-Chee folder at #school? That is certainly not how I first saw images of penetrative #sex while attending a middle school. Certainly not.
