A much needed, if absolutely mind boggling, breakdown of how the DeSantis education bill destroys higher education
I tend to take claims like these with a grain of salt. But I just went line-by-line through the DeSantis education bill. And you guys, it’s *bananas*. A road map for wrecking one of our great state systems of higher education. 🧵 1/

Ours is an MLB AL house divided, so I am an irregular, if supportive, reader of the spouse’s Astros blog. Particularly enjoyed this book review and am hard pressed to come up with a more apt catchphrase for @OrangeFire_ than “I Still Stan the Analytics Revolution.”
Jeff Luhnow's amorality is clear, but I"m not sure it indicts the whole sport. My review of the new book on the Astros Winning Fixes Everything. orangefire.substack.com/p/dr…

More about last night’s efforts to oppose book banning in our town
In bad news, a local conservative group tried to get a set of LGBTQ+ themes books banned or moved from our local public library. In good news, citizens organized to stop them, with 100s showing up at last nights library board meeting. nj.com/essex/2023/02/nj-libr…

Tonight I joined with neighbors and fellow librarians to oppose attempts to ban books at our public library. Pleased to say the turnout was overwhelming and overwhelmingly in support of keeping these books in our library.
