Pennsylvania’s Central Bucks School District was one of the places where Moms for Liberty lost big in the 2023 elections, with a right-wing school board majority swept out and replaced with Democrats. On Monday night, Karen Smith—who had been serving on the board in the Democratic minority prior to this election—was sworn in as the school board president, part of the wave of change from the anti-LGBTQ+, pro-book-banning board voted out in November. She made a powerful symbolic choice when it came to what book she’d be sworn in on: not the Bible or another religious book, but a stack of frequently banned books.
I don’t generally enjoy petty shit injected into what should be boring government actions (return to boring government when?) but this I can definitely get behind.
She’s a
testamentthat not all Karen’s are bad.She became the manager
The manager we want.
The manager we need.
How dare you insinuate my first wife from Harvest Moon 64 is a lush and only likes me for my dog… Wait a minute.
Never played it, just the SNES one. I liked it and am curious so maybe I’ll check it out on emulation or something.
It’s definitely worth on emulation too. Making use of 2-4x speed makes things go by a lot quicker if you enjoy efficiency. Getting around and time management were always big in the older games if you wanted to err toward the side of completionist or being a slut lol.
Why not both? Who doesn’t love a complete slut.
Ah yes the default wife.
All my buddies went with Ann or Maria. I would’ve gone with Elli or Potpurri next myself.
Elli got them mom vibes and Potpurri was just cute.
I can not remember what version it (the playstation one?) was but if you did not get a wife by a certain point in the game she would just show up and force you to marry her. I guess they did not have it programed to be forever alone.
I hope between this at Central Bucks and Pennridge also getting rid of the MAGA members and canceling the Vermillion “education” contract that all my local school districts will finally be out of the national news for being off the rails.
I don’t have kids, but I do care about kids and education, so I was so relieved to see these people get kicked to the curb where they belong.
Central Bucks just needs to fix that crooked $500,000 severance package and “legal immunity” pushed through last minute for the nutty superintendent that only worked there 2 years and supported this stuff.
I read Night in school, but I didn’t remember this quote:
“I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”
This is what Enlightened Centrists either don’t understand or don’t care about. I would have been devastated back then to know what the US has become.
In b4 someone claims she’s not actually sworn in because she didn’t use a Bible.
Shrug, oh well. Let them cope. :)
lmao !
Fuck yes! More of this!
