It's even reached NASA – whose unofficial motto is "For All Mankind". Note: "We are aware of efforts ... to disguise these programs by using coded or imprecise language" and "Failure to report this ... within 10 days may result in adverse consequences". Now swap "these programs" with "Jews"

They will go after Wikipedia. They will go after libraries. They will go after school boards and public extracurricular activities that are anything but sports. They will go after archives. Because knowledge, education, culture, and progressives are all the enemy. Thinking is the enemy.

Friendly reminder that if you buy a book on Kindle, you're only paying for the rights to read, not own. If a book truly gets banned, it will be taken away from digital platforms like Kindle, nook, etc. Consider getting physical copies of banned (or other) books! READ BANNED BOOKS #booksky

Make being a book-banner into a mark of shame that leads to book-banners being shunned and reviled in decent society. Bring back shame and splatter it on censors.

Ever wondered why walking around museums is weirdly tiring? At normal speed our legs act like pendulums, swinging forward from the hip & saving us a huge amount of energy. In "museum shuffle" our muscles must do ALL the work of constant readjustment. So cake in the cafe is scientifically justified 🥳

Conservatives aim to block not just abortion services but also discussions on women's reproductive rights in the House of Commons. This effort to silence debate reflects their intolerance, making it clear why Canadians should be concerned about a potential Conservative government. #NDP

Julien was a giant of the Ed theater scene and his fundraising efforts for the food bank every Christmas is legendary. It's largely due to him that they started and continued to raise so much money after the Christmas Carol shows. I will miss his light so deeply, what a wonderful man.
