Even though I'm not even halfway over managing a sleepover with a bevy of 12yo boys, I'd like to move that every middle school teacher in America have their salaries immediately doubled.

Folks with the most to lose are often the ones who are more likely to standup and fight than the ones who are comfortable and could speak out more easily.
So many normal people being brave and then all these wealthy and powerful people being cowards. History will not be kind to the people like shari Redstone who enabled Trump.

This was the crux of every person I had to watch die of COVID who said, "But they said it wasn't that bad, it wasn't a problem!" They're living in an information environment and will stay in it until it literally kills them.

There's a guy who our local Democratic delegate spent $500k calling a super crazy Republican (and why would anyone lie about that?), and I checked with him, and he would 100% be okay being used as an official "other side" voice here.
**Action for Albemarle Residents** Turning Point USA (a "hard right extremist group" per the SPLC) has invited an explicitly anti-trans presentation to be given to the kids at WAHS.
