New rule. A parent may only propose removing a book from the school library only after reading it in its entirety and delivering a book report to the librarian. Until then no discussion shall be entered into.

Thanking God for sparing your child when other parents’ children were shot dead is a bit like sending a thank you note to a serial killer for going to the house next door.

Bluesky labeled that Jack Black photo as "sexually suggestive," so the natural urge is to see if it can happen again. "In costumes short and quite revealing, the ladies surely have free wheeling!" ca. 1940s

Art of Laundry. Via FB/A world of washing/Nakia Kiyono. “More Clothes to Clean," By George Hughes, 1948. Hughes (1907-1990) was a popular illustrator and magazine cover artist and a neighbour of Norman Rockwell in Arlington, Va. Late in life he switched to become a successful portrait painter…

I was in the news business for only 4 decades, so maybe I don't know much. But it seems like the transformation of the U.S. into a police state would be worth a headline and a few paragraphs.

The POTUS golf club covers, the shirt with the presidential seal, the ballcap with his administration numbers, the presidential seal dangling from the front of the golf cart: things that sooth the brittle ego of this insecure man by reminding him of his undeserved political prominence.

I've always loved Klimt even though a handful of his works have become too commonplace. I also love the point at which his work and Egon Schiele's work converge a bit.
