27 wtfsPennsylvania school district bans Girls Who Code book series
In a statement explaining the ban of the diverse resources, the school district’s board president at the time, Jane Johnson, said: “What we are attempting to do is balance legitimate academic freedom with what could be literature/materials that are too activist in nature, and may lean more toward indoctrination rather than age-appropriate academic content.”
The Central York school district did not immediately respond to request for comment on its ban of the Girls Who Code series.
The series features a group of girls who become friends in their school’s coding club. The series is in partnership with Girls Who Code, a non-profit that runs computer coding clubs and programming in schools for girls.

Encouraging girls to get into STEM stuff is too activist. -
27 wtfsTaking refugees is a mistake. The ukrainians needs to stay and fight for their nation. Don't let Putin chase out all the people that can make a difference in Ukraine. This is what people like Putin and Assad want, they want their opponents to leave the country permanently because they win.
It's a hard truth to understand, but it is the truth. -
27 wtfsThe Republican chair of Arizona's state House Ways and Means Committee introduced a bill Wednesday that would give the Legislature authority to override the secretary of state’s certification of its electoral votes.
GOP Rep. Shawnna Bolick introduced the bill, which rewrites parts of the state's election law, such as sections on election observers and securing and auditing ballots, among other measures.
One section grants the Legislature, which is currently under GOP control, the ability to revoke the secretary of state's certification "by majority vote at any time before the presidential inauguration."

So in addition to making it harder to vote, Republican led states will be adding new ways to reverse the vote afterwards. Lovely. -
27 wtfsSo I spent my day calling AP offices and my local newspaper because of this fucking bullshit. They have since printed a retraction but I’m still absolutely livid. They changed an AP cut line from a photo.

27 wtfsHe was your age and in great health, probably more healthy than you are.
He also donated his weekends to taking care of sick dogs at the pound and donated 10% of his income to disadvantaged inner city kids.
He was vegan and didn't eat anything that cast a shadow. He was the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being they've ever known in their lives. -
