It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

Love is a terrible thing.
Just a regular country doing regular, normal stuff in general, like voting to let random people carry machine guns around schools and burning books about biodiversity.
HAHA! funny
When our pastor and her wife adopted a baby boy, we gave them a copy of John Oliver’s picture book about a rabbit that happens to have the same name as Mike Pence’s family’s pet rabbit and his gay romantic relationship with another male rabbit. They loved it!
Marlon Bundo! We gifted a copy to my daughter’s kindergarten because they loved hers so much.
Wait what this is real? 😂😂😂
Yes and it's actually a pretty good children's book
Awesome I love him and Stewart
@paulcastlestudio.bsky.social We absolutely ADORE your penguin books (and making fun of uptight "conservatives"...) 😹✨️😎
Gay or not...they still have to pay the tariff!
It could be worse
LMFAO!!! perfect
How would they know?
USA $Billions in school hardening devices, glass and shooter kits! Why # 1 killer of kids we lose more kids 1 -17 than anywhere else in the world! By the Gun! Run! Hide! Fight! B$billions on drills police and schools! Insanity!
Under the Blood clot powder and Tourniquet’s they found a book? Oh no no books!
Utterly ridiculous isn’t it.
Hahaha
That bulletprooolf backpacks are even a thing in the US is crazy - The insanity in America these days is unfathomable...
Brought to us courtesy of the GOP. I thought things would change after Sandy Hook but nope. Then after Parkland, Uvalde but nope. More liberal gun laws kept getting passed though.
💔😳😔
Didn't one state just pass some tougher gun laws? Maryland? Still looks nuts, even with that.
Yep. Shockingly, it was the Supreme Court's inability to agree that left it in place 15 separate times.
There were 13 years before Sandy Hook to prevent it (Columbine was 1999), and we've had 13 years since to prevent any more. 26 years of the massacre of children in their classrooms. Zero comprehensive national gun control. Guns cross state borders.
💔😳😔
It's the TSA of school supplies: does nothing but give false security against rare but scary threats.
Death Game Since this method began, many people have been killed—just because they were searching for flour and food. I can't do that, because I love life and I don't want to die. There would be no one left for my children. Please, help . Support my family so I don't have to join this filthy game.
We have the gay penguins book. Highly recommend ☺️
#MEGA #MakeEmpathyGreatAgain 👍👏🏻
What next? Hide gay penguins from the discovery channel?
Where did we fail? Why didn't Johnny get into semi-automatic weapons like a good, macho American?
ahahaha !
At least it's not the gay frogs.. This time...
God forbid they be exposed to gay men, lesbians or transgender people in school while they constantly watch gays, transgenders on Tick tock and instagram
Just to be sure, I'm locking my children in a room with 59 gay penguins until they get it out of their system.
Oh the horror! 🤣
Can I just weigh in as an elementary educator for nearly 40 years? Not once have I had the opportunity or need to read a book about two mommies or two daddies to my class. I’ve been too busy teaching your children to read, write and do math. You’re welcome.
Sure, and with respect for your experience, that’s exactly the point—books like those aren’t about replacing reading, writing, or math. They’re about making sure all kids feel seen while they’re learning those things. Representation isn’t a distraction—it’s part of a healthy, inclusive classroom.
Maybe one day you'll evolve your teaching method of "Learning to Read" to the more advanced "Reading to Learn." After all, that's what it's really about, isn't it?
We already have comprehension questions that kindergarteners have to answer at the end of a reading passage. Learning to read, then reading to learn, and more! It’s a lot!
Answering comprehension questions is simply another facet of learning to read. Reading to learn incorporates critical thinking, analysis, evaluation, and access to/of factual and historical information/knowledge.
Girl, that ain't a bad of honour. You seen global rank in math and STEM? Ax somebody. I bet you still use Ebonics as the label for all 'bad' English.
If you're quibling about budgeting the time available to teach, and don't see an inherent problem in the time alloted for active shooter drills, or the need for them, because you're too incensed by a pair of gay penguins, you failed the test.
I’m on your side. My comment was meant sarcastically. I, too, am horrified by the need for active shooter drills and the attack on DEI.
What are you trying to say? Comes off anti LGBTQ but I don’t think that’s what you’re going for. You know the tweet you replied to wasn’t serious right?
I fully get the tongue-in-cheek original post. Sorry if my sarcasm didn’t come through. The attack on DEI is nauseating and sad for our country.
No worries that’s on me not catching it then
But you probably have read plenty of books with a mom and dad, haven’t you? So what’s the issue?
When you were teaching those children to read, what sort of stories did you read? Fairy tales? Stories about families? Tales about moms and dads? Because you definitely did have the opportunity to teach more inclusive stories.
My point was that the right’s imaginary need to attack educators for explicitly indoctrinating children (about anything) was a ridiculous, manufactured problem created to fit their narrative. We are in classrooms busy teaching children all subjects, including inclusivity of all people. Full stop.
All right, thank you. I misunderstood your post.
Poe's law
You mean a national geographic?
Flightless bird flipping the bird 😏
Hilarious
How dare they!!!
According to these arguments as a parent who is an atheist I can object to the Bible being taught to my child as well.
Some school systems forget there are other religious and some parents are atheists. Will the schools allow Muslims kids time to pray on their prayer rug? Some kid are Jehovah Witness Quakers Seventh Day Adventist etc.
they don’t forget, they would like it to be actively hostile to them
Ironically, teaching the Bible in public school interfere with a parent's right to impart the parent's religious beliefs onto their children. If SCOTUS believes that books with LBGTQ content interferes then teaching directly from holy scripture must also interfere with parents religious practice.
That book is prono big time. Incest? It's got it in spades. Rape? That too. And then there's: "There she lusted after her lovers whose genitals were as those of donkeys..."
I don't know about you but I don't want my kid learning about angel rape
As fiction goes, the old testament has some juicy bits, though it drags at times. The new testament is a bit silly - so much for sequels. 😏 Oh, and yes to PR ('bout time) and DC being states (or at least add DC to Maryland).
I can’t remember which one is more of a drag: Leviticus or Numbers. All I remember about those books was thinking constantly that people say it’s good for me to read that shit. Still trying to figure out why they thought that.
Yup. (Religion should not be taught in public schools except from the viewpoint of understanding the religions present in your area anyway. That's what Sunday school and its equivalents are for).
Well they don't teach the Bible in public schools. But opt out if a teacher goes off about their faith
Hate to tell you, but in some Red folks have managed to teach the Bible as literature in Southwest Ohio, and I have no doubt that we are not alone. Teach it along with Greek and Roman and Norse mythology or not at all. Separation of church and state should mean something so should love thy neighbor.
They're certainly working on it and getting the curriculums rolling in some states. www.bbc.com/news/article...
Every single person shoud opose to that
For now. I think the eventuality of this path we're on is special carve-outs for "Christianity."
Muslims sued too
Muslim parents were specifically selected for this case so the far Right groups bringing the case to SCOTUS could avoid claims of Christian bias. Evil but brilliant legal strategy.
Cuz Muslims believe homosexuality is really OK?
Not saying that at all. But the backers of this case were Alliance Defending Freedom and Moms For Liberty. Two far right Christian groups. They selected Muslim parents to place at the forefront rather than Christian parents, though Christian parents were involved too.
Put Muslims at the forefront and in the case name, and you get to claim it's not about Christianity, even though it really is. Because what "self respecting liberal" wants to say that a Muslim should be denied their religious freedoms?
"Oh, you don't want people objecting to what their kids are taught? Why do you hate Islam?" Hypocritical at the minimum coming from ADF and MFL groups, but effective in neutering critiques.
As an atheist myself I simply informed my sons school that unless they taught all religions my child was going to sit that class out. Their religious studies turns out to be 100% Christian - my son spent those lessons in the library reading books he chose.
Yep! This ruling is a slippery slope. You could object to the Bible being taught, others might object to black history being taught. Where does it end?
It's not them flaming Marshall Islands penguins again is it.
@lolennui.bsky.social You mean their popular knapsack with many different locations? https://www.vice.com/en/article/nyc-mayoral-candidate-eric-adams-bizarre-contraband-video-interview/
Well put.............well put. :)
Armed gay penguins
Thanks a lot. Now I’ll be up all night worrying.
Gotta protect those gay penguin books at all costs!
Hahahaha 😆 😂 😆 hilarious Amy, have a great night
I remember I wanted to tell my back then 5 year old that his cousin was gay. Me: "Ehh, you know that your cousin is gay, that he loves another man right? My 5 year old: "yeah, I know". Me; "So ehh.". My 5 year old: "What's for diner?!" He did not care, to my surprise. Or had no reason to care
Live and let live.
🤔 remembering when I was young... I feared those who I was scared of. Don't force your children to have physical contact with people they don't want to. Yet the beautiful gay couple next door were lovely. One was brutally murdered... still haunts me I couldn't save them💔😔
How sad.
He had no reason to care, because it was not something he had been taught to judge others for. Good work.
When I was seven, my grandma told me elton john was a homosexual when I brought his albums to her house to listen to them. I was like "great, do you have any slim jims?"
And then I sang The Bitch is Back for her.
He doesn’t care bc he hasn’t learned that in other households this is a problem. Good for him.
It was too early. Society didn't have the time to make her/him afraid and terrified.
I‘m rather afraid of those societies which want to make me afraid of queer people…
Im afraid of Americans
Some of them for sure !! Me too!
m.youtube.com/watch?v=LT3c...
I'm afraid I can't help it
God is an American.
youtu.be/LT3cERVRoQo?...
Be afraid… very afraid.
And this is what we see in Gen-Z that terrifies the right. The first generation to grow up with these things just being normal and represented in media, and their resulting attitudes. It takes every generation passing this fear down to keep it going.
Thats because homophobia is natural, its learned through hate
I actually read isn't... 🙂
ISNT I MEAN ISNT
Good save lol
I have 2 relatives that WHEN they were 5 years old I knew they were gay. I was 10 & 13 and the time.
I can usually spot a homosexual a mile way too, cos I have gay friends and been in two gay weddings and I now see their little tell tales now… even as a heterosexual… 😊
When I was 10 in 1969 I didnt even know what the term was I just knew he was that way(sheltered from the real world in N.W. Montana!)the younger cousin finally cane out at 24...in N.W. Montana! Proud of him!
My little 4 year old cousin at a gay wedding, staring at the cake with 2 grooms on it. I thought maybe he didn’t understand why there were 2 dudes. No. He wanted to know if he could eat the “dolls” on the cake
OMG! (BTW - penguin poop just might help us a bit with our climate change issues… Huzzah to gay penguins!)
It’s such a BS lawsuit.
That's so funny if it wasn't true.
What is next! Next they will be Allowing kids to see illustration of interracial marriage!?!?!
Disgusting! Or learn about black history!
They better never study slugs and such...
Even in Toronto, they have occasional lockdown drills related to having someone dangerous entering the school or on the property. I was surprised. Now chances are in Toronto its not a shooter.
Thanks for the chuckle Amy.
The fact that there are so many bookspace people choosing to harass the author of that book bc he posts about his experiences of how ppl treat him, and is emotional, is really something
Especially if the penguins were also armed communists
Trying to implement sharia law 🙄
In democrat run woke schools, the area of the playground by the swings is a no-go zone due to Sharia law.
the gay armed muslim extremist communist penguins of the Heard and McDonald Islands
😂
😁
Just wait till they borrow the one about the seahorse family
Cackling! Or about the transitioning clownfish.
Assuming exposure to gay penguins will threaten your child or your values just shows me how little you think of both. Teen me read books told from the perspective of serial killers and even decades on, I still haven't killed a single person.
I remember how my mom and aunt said I could potentially become a school shooter for playing GTA. Yet as a kid, I played the original Super Mario and not once ever had the urge to jump on top of turtles.
Almost like children know the difference between pretend and real . . . Apparently some folks forget when they grow up.
I grew up watching my dad play Wolfenstein 3D and Doom. All that ever did to me is give me the urge to punch Nazis and Demons. I also tried eating dog food once.
Gasp! Hehe
So worried about gay penguins taking over.....guns should have never been created. I think we are past weapons in society 😐🙄
It could be worse (by that measure of'worse')! You check your child's bulletproof backpack and find a book about a dysmorphic crayon
👏🏼👏🏼 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 #InstantFollow there, yes ma'am! 👍🏼👍🏼
This.
Right?! 😫🙄
But, but … not only gay, the rotten little sods didn’t pay the tariffs! ‘Orrible little blighters, proper anarchists & bigly bad examples for kids! Ps: if books are so influential , how come we have so many criminal christians, eh?
'cause there's loads of crime in the bible!
1. God wasn't exactly merciful in the old testament 2. Barely anyone actually reads from the Bible. They just hear snippets and make up their own stuff from that.
my gay, penguin loving wife is gonna love this one ty
🙌
“Please god, not this child”
At least their kids are coming home.
“im so disappointed. you know we are a puffin household”
Oooooh, penguin porn!
God that’s my worst nightmare, I know how to treat my kids right, I just give them a ton of red 40 products, 2 bibles, and a dad gum ton of possum pelts for their luncheon. God bless murica.
And it was the book of gay Penguins that saved them!
We had to have an intervention when my son told me he identified as a gay penguin.
Haha. Better a gay penguin then a vacuum cleaner
So. Many. Words. 😆
Like Burgess Merideth’s The Penguin? Burgess was straight, but a purple top hat and a cigarette filter is pretty on the nose for a gay penguin!
Being a penguin is fun
Me and my life partner are utterly shocked!😮
I would love that.
Wow that sums it up perfectly! 🔥🔥🔥
The horror! White and black!
Oh come in Amy, there’s much worse
This level of satire is going to fly right over the head of anyone who actually needs to hear & get this message. At least the rest of us can smile with bitter amusement at the Kafkaesque nightmare we’re all living in.
I’m usually in favor of this level of satire, but I think some of the commenters are getting confused. Or maybe I’m confused about them, it’s getting too hard to tell.
As the kids like to say these days: “I’m tired, boss.“ We’re all really fucking tired at this point. The last decade has felt like 25 - 30 years of continual warfare, at least mentally / emotionally. It’s hard to even distinguish satire from weird forms of trolling in this era of online bullshit.
I guess I should feel lucky I only noticed this BS from around Gamergate time, which amazingly is only 10 Years or so ago. I just hope My kids have a better time finding joy in this hellscape.
Gamergate feels like 15-20 years ago in my mental map. I still remember being utterly confused by the whole thing, especially why so many people were acting like something that was clearly a misogynist meltdown by a bunch of maladjusted assholes was some sort of legitimate movement!
Instinctually my first thought was… “Kafka wasn’t this dark” 😞
No, we were forced to read Kafka in school... dude was a source of pure utter despair and head hurting absurdity. Why do we subject middle-schoolers to such horrors?(like, in the EU, where other horrors are less prominent)
Long as their Sesame Street™️ Tourniquet & Pressure Bandage kit is intact.
And they're not even keeping their self-defense shotgun loaded.
Whoa, that's a lot of drama! It sounds like you're saying that the US is pouring billions into school safety measures, but it's not making a dent. What's the most effective way to keep our kids safe, in your opinion? 🤔
Safe from what? Because until you accurately identify the problem you can't start looking for solutions.
What kind of cowards are afraid of drag queens and books.
The fragile white Republican ones...🤷♀️
... hidden inside an N95 mask! I raised you better than this!
Right ? This nations priorities are so screwed up right now.
They should be reading See Dick Run … and duck … and cover …
a book with a Dick in it could be problematic.
Excellent
Oops! They forgot to ban that one!
OMG this is gold🥇
It’s a great story!
Right...or they are in a lockdown because of yet another gunmen at a school and the only book they have to read to the crying children fearing for their lives crying out for their parents is one about gay penguins The horror
American PSAs are getting weirder then I imagined.
Over 1,500 species have been documented to have same sex relations and partners.
😳🤭
Wait...your kid is not armed? Are you one of those parents who leave everything to the teachers? /s
So thaaaats why Trump initiated tariffs against penguins....
I love those penguins so damn much. Contemplating a gay penguin tattoo. The way they sat on that rock. Man. That was a good story.
It's the straight ones I was concerned about. Ended up with a straight daughter....sigh.
I would be devastated to know my child has........to wear a bulletproof backpack to school.
or somebody coming to their school and reading them a book about history! aaahhhh!
They are slowly restricting your rights, one by one. Good luck saving your democracy 💔😢
Stuff of nightmares 🙄
😄
Love that book!
"It'd be different if the book were also bulletproof. But what's it's value?" - Mom's Against Liberty
At the risk of irritating some people around here... I don't understand the fascination with sexualising characters in children's books. It feels like a very odd hill to die on and it appears to be driven by adults intent on exposing impressionable minds to pressure they don't need in early years.
So you prefer the wholesome classics, where the princess gives up everything to be with Prince Charming?
Trying to throw a gotcha question, to be expected. The "classics" are full of tropes that are pretty reductive, but at least they typically focus on the journey, rather than on the sexuality of the characters.
what makes a dude kissing a dude any more sexual than a girl kissing a dude. relationships aren't inherently sexual. also, a book isn't going to pressure a child into "turning" gay. exposure means its easier for kids to self identify and go "that's me!" - but it does not change the kid.
Never said it's any more or less. Frankly, I don't think it's a necessary element in books for young children. My daughter is turning 10 this year and I would hate to think that she would be worrying about whether she should be kissing boys or girls. I just want her to enjoy being a kid.
ok, so at least youre consistent about it i guess i still disagree because i think its important for kids to be shown healthy relationships in media, be they queer or not. either way, 10 is around where puberty starts anyway. i knew plenty of kids at that age that were in relationships
they didnt LAST, but they still happened. trying to shield kids from that will only serve to hurt them. id rather 10yos be shown healthy relationships and boundaries, than idolise the likes of shane dawson because they werent shown anything better.
I get where you're coming from and I can respect that (but I don't know who Shane Dawson is). I also have a 15y/o son so it's not my first rodeo. What I found is more important, is making sure they grow up to be good people that don't make other people's lives difficult.
Shane Dawson is a YouTuber that got exposed for exhibiting pedophilic behaviour and the internet collectively forgot about it except to occasionally dunk on him for acting poor when he's super rich. He portrayed very harmful dynamics between himself and kids.
That's exactly the reason I won't let my kids play roblox or watch certain stuff on YouTube. There are some really creepy old guys on those dimfluencer videos and it's really hard to explain to my daughter why I don't want her watching them without destroying her innocence.
im speaking from experience when i tell you that doesnt protect kids, it just makes it harder for them to speak up when something does happen. if a kid doesnt know how to identify creepy behaviour, or, worse, doesnt realise its creepy, theyre not gonna be able to tell you about it.
The book being referred to here is an actual true story about two male penguins in the Central Park Zoo who bonded and then raised an abandoned baby penguin. It’s not sexualizing anything, it’s just nature. There are all sorts of “gay” animals.
Thanks for that. I'm not familiar with this particular book, but yes I am aware that there are many known instances of animals that are homosexual.
Hahahahaha! Actually not funny, but funny. OMG they’ve made me crazy!!
Damn straight, gotta protect that book!
I would be HORRIFIED to find that, assuming the book used AI art. Otherwise, cool.
lol
It’s MAGA’s nightmare.
Well said
Sure keeps me up at night.
This is an S tier post 😂
Absolutely the thing im worried about when sending my kid to school in full tactical armor is that she might learn that she can be a he and that's more terrifying then her getting shot straight in the head by a classmate. /s? Is it needed? Fucking probably.
I'd be thrilled about the book part. We must sweep out of power the neanderthals with barely functional brains, all set to 'HATE.'
The horror…
I have no problem with the gay penguins. I do, however, have a problem if some idjit tries to tell the otherwise perfectly healthy child that *might* be same sex attracted that he/she was born in the wrong body, and have "be kind" conversion therapy, Iranian style. Any questions?
nobody's trying to tell anyone anything! it's just the same as a book about a straight couple. just gay couples have more confusion/panic around them... nobody's trying to convince children anything, except maybe to build their reading stamina ehe btw i'm a tea/coffee lover too :-)
Like I said, I have no issue with gay penguins, or humans. And it is insane that in our day people still take issue with homosexuals. Btw, Iran is a paradise for "trans" precisely because they have a problem with homosexuality... And trans away the gay (I do have issues that "conversion therapy")
i don't really understand what you said but Iran's trans rights are very limited ... either way i'm not sure why you added that on! but there are plenty of documents and websites for you to read if you're unsure on the topic of trans people :-) the media often misrepresents us to spread fear
“same sex attracted” is a huge red flag too: what are you, catholic? are you even gay? why are you talking as if you’re worried about gay ppl when you clearly do not care about us?
Yes, Catholic. No, sorry, not homosexual. I do have old friends who are, and because they were somewhat effeminated as teens, they would have been persuaded they were in the wrong body, filled with drugs and castrated, if this gender bs was the norm back then. Your homophobia has been duly noted.
hm interesting. do you think conversion therapy for gay people is good? do you think marriage should be legal for gays? do you think we should be allowed to parent? do you think gay sex is a sin, and tell other people? do you think gay people who have sex deserve to go to hell?
If I thought conversion therapy was good, I would be in favour of transitioning kids. and why on earth do you bring up same sex couples and marriage? you do know Iran - very homophobic - is the country where trans people have better treatment, acceptance, etc, right? Why is that?
bc they hate gay ppl more than trans ppl, like the inverse of the US. i bring up marriage and couples bc you are catholic, which means you presumably think those things are evil and sinful when gay ppl do them. & dont be ridiculous. as a group, catholics LOVE conversion therapy.
people arent doing this. u just dont want trans ppl to exist so u wont accept that some kids are just trans. where do u think trans adults come from? its an insult to compare trans ppl existing to conversion therapy, esp while using the same argument homophobes used against gay ppl for decades.
Dude Gender dysphoria does exist, but it is rarer than you think, & it is a mental health issue What otherwise sane consenting adult does with their life is none of my business (or yours) What people influence kids to do is society's business, particularly when with lifelong harmful consequences.
so the “lifelong harmful consequences” speaks to the regret rate. should we ban joint replacements and other common surgeries for minors as well, seeing as those carry lifelong harmful consequences have a higher regret rate then trans care?
Read again the bs you wrote. and then use your critical thinking skills - if you still have them - to digest it. Seriously.
prove me wrong. if it’s so obvious, this should be easy for you
Can we find out what Lindsey Graham was reading in his formative years?
Damn tHoSe PENGUINS 😡😡😡
OMG it's a moral nightmare! The other evening when I was helping my daughter unload her special School Edition Glock 17, she told me they were learning about cultural diversity! Can you believe that?! Everyone knows this country was built on white Christian nationalism & grumpy old men. 😂😏🇺🇲
Yeah, I thought I was being funny, but it's unbelievably fucked up that American kids/caregivers have to consider such things 😔 I'm Australian so it's a completely foreign idea that my kid might get shot at school. Hit by a car or angry cyclist is much more likely 🙄😅
Oh, you got her the Glock 17? Is it working well? My son is asking me for Xmas (not winter holidays) the Sig Sauer P365 Paw Patrol Elementary School Edition, and I’m not sure which one I should buy him.
This is simultaneously hilarious and also deeply tragic. Reminds me of nearly every episode of M*A*S*H
Can I ask what brand of bulletproof vest you bought him?
Dora the Explorer Kevlar Edition.
That sounds amazing, thanks!
They sell the matching backpack, that includes an inside holster for the pistol. 100% NRA approved.
No need to buy a vest AND a backpack when you can buy a two in one bulletproof backpack!
That is legit terrifying
It is! Especially since it's American schoolchildrens' reality! It's terrifying that these products have to even be made!
Good point!
You've been so helpful, and this sounds so perfect. The Paw Patrol Glock fits the holster, I assume?
You can customize it when you order it online, the holster is an add-on and when you check it, it displays a combo box with more than 20 handguns so you can select a holster that will perfectly fit your gun. You know how important is that our kids can draw their guns fast and safely in school.
Oh, absolutely. We train for hours on fast draw maneuvers. My daughter was a little sad that the glitter ammo was sold out for the Sig, but we were able to get the bright pink ones with hearts and save the day! You've been such a resource!!
Oops, it's the Sig, my bad!
Have you thought about signing them up to the Kinder Guardians Programme? youtu.be/QkXeMoBPSDk?...
That looks amazing. Hopefully, we can fit that in this summer after Seal training for kids, Advanced Martial arts, Active School Shooter drills twice a day.
The only math they need is the number 15 and the only spelling is the letters a and r .. the other letters and numbers will turn them gay
The documentary “ bad faith” on peacock explains it so so good from when it started in the 60s to now and it’s plans for the future .. highly suggest it but it’s friggen scary
😆😆😆. But not funny
The horror 😱
Tango is a great book. It's in my classroom🇨🇦
LMAO.
😅
I didn't invest in that kevlar napsack for my child to learn about adam and steve!
Then you hide it from your wife in your closet
🤣🤣🤣🤣 That's awesome 💙
My copy is on my bookshelf.
Stupid Republicans right now…assholes
Thick enough books are bulletproof. Pen/sword.
😂😂😂👏👏👏
You know the repugs and their base would never pick up on the important part of your post? That's what makes it all so frustrating.
Good one!
Well that's a no brainer. Just take his bulletproof vest then. God willing there will be one less gay person as soon as the next lunatic teenager gets his hands on an assault gun for recreational purposes. 👀 Isn't it how it works in the MAGA hellscape formerly known as the USA? Deus vult! 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️😵💫
Gay penguins?!! Arrrgh!! Time to restock the ammunition pantry!
🤣🤣🤣
Luckily, that can be controlled with medication.
Especially gay penguins from an island that we’ve imposed high tariff on for no reason.
Ugh...just...😭
That right there is fucked up😵💫 America is a shithole country🤡
The number of child deaths from firearms when compared to picture books about gay penguins is chilling. That joke's in poor taste. There is NOTHING FUNNY about firearms being the leading cause of death in children & teens. Past time to beat the shit out of GQP false & hateful narratives.
The tykes need something to read during barricaded lockdowns
Ohh thank goodness it’s penguins…I would have trouble explaining gay bears.
Slow clap…
One step from being hilariously normal ! I just fcuking don’t want to react anymore.
Love: a nightmare.
What? There is nothing bad about it. I'd rather find a book about penguins than the Kamasutra in its backpack. Love comes in all colours and educating kids about them is your duty as a parent!
www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
I’d rather think about the penguins.
We have a winner.
Magabilly’s are the only ones that wake up and wonder what people have in their pants. The estimate of 18 out of hundreds of thousands of athletes are transgender. JFC
The amount that right wingers think and talk about dicks is ridiculous. Its an obsession for them.
No wonder magamoron men hate drag shows so much. It’s embarrassing when others see the bulge in their pants from sexual excitement.
Oooo! Is THAT why he put a tariff on the penguin island??
Gay penguins are the worst
These parents will just keep ignorance alive and not allow their children to live and love in the real world. To pretend that some people don't even exist is very sick. A sad day in America. 😞🏳️🌈
And the read they made into a live action movie! Coming to Netflix! Admit I'd tune in.
Oh my god. Penguins??? How do people deal with such monsters?
Gay penguin picture books are the very start of #SlipperySlope....... Thanks for the laff!
Hmmm do I want my 5year old to learn some kids have 2 moms or dad’s or would I rather have them learn about the guy whose concubine got attacked by 12 men so he cuts her body up into 12 pieces and sends it to 12 communities so they’ll kill the 12 man who killed his concubine… which is in the Bible
Just don't read the part about Solomon and bowel movements (I forget the exact details of that story, or possibly I blocked them out... I'm not here to kink-shame, I just have my preferences which do not include the above.)
This one? Song of Solomon 5:4 “My beloved extended his hand through the opening, And my feelings were aroused for him.
Was that supposed to be written from the point of view of a dude?
Well, David loved a dude with "a love surpassing that of women."
OK, well there we go. So what’s wrong with Susie‘s got two mommies. What the fuck??
It is between a man and a woman. The verse says he. Either option is pretty inconvenient for the everything I don't like is obscene crowd.
oh, the KJV has it as “My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him,” (Song of Solomon 5:4, KJV).” which i could see leading to some confusion. incidentally, king james, now there was an interesting figure in queer history!

Well said
Funny. Except it's not.
In Scotland we have a problem with violence in schools. The phrase child’s bulletproof backpack caught my attention. Presumably the pro life people support gun control and are anti gay penguins.
You would be wrong about gun control
But pro life! That has to mean gun control free healthcare for children and free school meals right?!
I sure hope this is sarcasm, it's 4am and the joke is as old as I am
The time thing hadn’t occurred to me. Sleep well.
Brilliant. New follower now.
I didn't think you lot understood irony
NOT THE PENGUAYS
You too? We’ve turned to homeschooling. There will be no grooming on our watch.
