Critics of the law, House Bill 900, have warned it is too broad and that it could ban literary classics as well as restrict students' access to books with LGBTQ+ characters.

If you own a copy of anything remotely valuable or interesting — film, TV, music — try to save it, and the device you can played it on. The new generation of corporate overlords are just gonna destroy it or delete it. And yeah, make copies.

My big conclusion from hank's Cancer Journey so far is that people are kind, and they want to help each other, and that when we extend our capacity for empathy to include more people, we have a better shared world.

[Thread] I’ve noticed something odd happening in Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining. True, there’s plenty of odd things going on in The Shining, but this is really weird. 🧵 1/50

These are the pages of my inaugural poem that an objecting parent cited as "not educational and have indirectly hate messages". And now because of that one complaint, my poem is now banned for elementary school students at a school in @MiamiDadeCounty.

What and when is going on here? 🎥 A first look at the Doctor and Ruby, as they arrive in the swinging 60s! Filming continues on the new series of #DoctorWho
A series of photos of Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson as the Doctor and Ruby Sunday, dressed in 1960s-style clothing, posing in front of a brick wall. The photos are stylised to resemble a contact sheet used on set.

ADHD repeat after me: It's not morally better to be productive than it is to be unproductive. Let the guilt go and love yourself as you are.

In the most San Francisco turn of events ever, the supervisors will not name wild parrots the city’s official animal today as planned. The meeting was recessed until tomorrow after someone vandalized the Comcast server they use to broadcast the meetings. Was it the sea lions??
