hmmm, this rings a bell.. 🤔
Oh yeah:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institut_f%C3%BCr_Sexualwissenschaft
Dang what a perfect reference. I only first heard about the institute a few months ago. Folks please go and read OC's link.
Holy smokes! That's a fascinating read, yet terrifying. So much lost to the actual Nazis.
That's literally why people think being trans is something new. Nearly all the research in the world on the topic was lost in the Nazi book burnings
I don't love a cis man playing a trans woman, but if you want to learn more, the movie The Danish Girl tells the story of the first trans woman to have sex reassignment surgery, which happened there.
The books are going to a landfill...might be a great place to pick up some free books to donate to libraries that may want them, idk...just an idea...
On one hand, I feel awful for the kids that have zero say in where they are born and how they are raised. The shitstains in charge are doing everything they can to prevent scary things like "critical thinking," all in the name of making more shitstains.
On the other,
lol how so people find the most obscure gif that fits perfectly?
Obscure? Sonny, this is a certified hood classic (or whatever it is the kids are calling it these days).
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to remove the onion from my belt so I can go yell at the clouds to get off of my lawn.
Obscure? This is probably the most used GIF when it comes to Florida topics.
I have literally never seen it
Sounds like you are spending too much time outside or something. Watch out for skin cancer and mosquitos.
I was employed at this awesome little school but left before Desantis's stupid anti-woke and DEI crusade. I hope it and the current students/employees don't suffer too much. I doubt Desantis gets voted out...
He is term limited. He can't run again.
He will be ineligible to run again in the next Florida gubernatorial election in 2026 and will leave office in Jan. 2027.
I'm not sure there will be a Florida left by Jan 2027.
I’m not sure there will be a Florida left by Jan 2027.
Oh no... anyway.
Florida government is pretending the proverbial iceberg of climate change is a hoax and want to go ahead full steam.
Silver lining for them is that the iceberg is melting.
He's already got his eyes set on a national prize. He wants to spread his sickness to the rest of the country.
But actual people and not the senile hate his weird ass
He's term-limited I think.
My brother called me a fear monger when I openly called Trump a fascist the first time around. Look who's getting the last laugh now :/
I guess Trump needed the exercise trashing all these books… apparently
I'm a Floridian from birth, thankfully living in blue AF Chicago nowadays and my heart breaks for these kids. New College was a proud bastion of free-thinking opposition to the right wing tide that Florida has calcified into. This is the party of "small government" - fuck you Ron DeSantis ya 5'4 (BOOT HEEL BUFF patch nerfed ) insecure charisma void
What is their problem with The War of the Worlds?
They came and took our planet, and then the alien king turned to his alien husband and smooched him on the mouth. They left that part out of the movies
Wait, really? I've not read the book, seen the movies, and listened to the OG radio show. Shit, fuck it, I'm reading it, I don't even care if it's true!
Gay aliens.
Gayliens
They don’t understand it.
