Does this mean if they try to ban other books, lets say about abortion all you need to do to guarantee it Doesn’t get censored is included a gay part?
That would be the loophole to really piss em off :p
EDIT: “prevents libraries from removing books “based solely on the viewpoint, content, message, idea, or opinion conveyed.” Instead, content curation will be managed by “a licensed library media specialist, an individual with a master’s degree in library sciences or library and information sciences, or a professional librarian or person with extensive library collection management experience."
Still though please can we turn non lgbt books into having a completely unnecessary lgbt subplot just because it would be funny. I am not even gay :p

Unironically, yes. Normalizing LGBTQ+ characters, relationships, and plots is much more helpful than having them be a “spicy” token minority for audience reaction. Look at Schitt’s Creek (different medium, I know) for example. The character David is pansexual and treated just like anyone else. His major love interest may be a guy but the plots about it have nothing to do with the fact that they’re both men, just that they’re two people in a romantic relationship with one partner being anxious and neurotic with the sass turned up to 11.
This is fucking fantastic! Thank you for posting OP
Conservatives: Freedom of Speech. Get government out of people’s lives. I don’t need a vaccine my body my choice. Support our troops.
Conservatives: book banning. Putting religion into schools. Block women’s healthcare. Cuts Veterans Assistance.
See this is why referring to libertarians, conservatives and fascists as all the same thing is not helpful.

Tell me why you don’t like reagan? As a foreigner ive not enough information about him
I hate that this is what we have to focus one when we don’t have health care or a living wage, but goddamn, it feels good to see a positive headline.
Minnesota is going to have state provided health insurance, you can do two things at once.
People keep saying this, and it’s inevitably followed by a state-level example.
The problem with that is 2/3 of the states are controlled by fascists, and I don’t think 2/3 of the states should have to go without a living wage and health care.
Do you?
The Federal Government should be doing more than writing blank checks for other countries’ wars.
