Texas and Florida have essentially broken away from the US at this point and started a pro Russian, fascist, Neo Confederacy so that's a thing that's happening in the US...

Russians carry out a systematic genocide against the Ukrainian people. It is supported overwhelmingly by the Moscow Patriarchate, the so-called Russian Orthodox Church.

Director of Orthodox radio Yevgeniy Nikiforov: "Ukrainians should be burned in the sun and their throats cut.”

A typical Russian, Nikiforov is wishing Ukrainians suffer "burning sunlight." He is referring to the TOS-1A "Solntsepyok" multiple rocket launcher that uses thermobaric warheads.

Parents Defending Education (a misnomer if ever there was) sued this large Ohio school district to try and carve out a “right” to bully transgender classmates. This federal judge said no.

He reviewed the history of bullying and harassment of trans people and said that it’s reasonable for the school district to protect trans youth including discouraging intentional misgendering.

Like locking the stable door after the horse is stolen/gone. Lots of variations going back a 1000+ years, but it's stables and horses all the way down.

AP Psychology is officially banned in Florida because it includes instruction on gender and sexuality.

This is my life now. Begging for money for food with a full time job. Gah. Anyway, because I had to spend $400 on son’s school supplies and because I already owe Ex so much money so didn’t get half back, I’m now $70 in the hole and still need to buy food this coming week somehow.
