#Fascist #Florida #law shattered the #life of a #BrowardCounty #teen, threatened her #mom's #job, smeared six #school #administrators, triggered #studentwalkouts, and provided work for 32 #triallawyers has become a #wreckingball

#RochesterPublicSchools move to #formalize #procedures for #helping #transgender #kids
The #Schoolboard is drafting #districtwide #policies, #codifying #guidance for #school #administrators on everything from respecting #students' #preferredpronouns to ensuring #comfortable #changingrooms and #bathrooms for #kids.

@hannu_ikonen What you are seeing is Conservative and pro-Israel groups #weaponizing #policeviolence and #Politicalpressure on #university #administrators aimed at #trampling on #student's #constitutionalrights.
They are using pro-#genocide #propaganda and #misinformation to try to shape the public narrative.
I also wouldn't be surprised if Russia wasn't involved somewhere in there by fomenting discord in the US to distract from their actions in Ukraine.
#Florida’s #Bookbans may come back to #bite them
Things have gotten so #ridiculous that in #EscambiaCounty, #school #administrators have #banned the #dictionary

Well, it has been exactly one year since joining the #Mastodon and the #Fediverse, and I'm glad I did.
It should go without saying that certainly don't doomscroll anymore, but rather get inspiration and hope.
I see so much more grassroots organisation, non-corporate posts, and genuine in-depth discussion without trolls.
I truly enjoy it.
Thank you to all the #Moderators #Administrators and #Developers
#House #Speaker #MikeJohnson was once the #dean of a #Christian #lawschool. It never #opened its doors.
The establishment of the #Judge #PaulPressler #SchoolofLaw was supposed to be a capstone achievement for #Louisiana #College, which #administrators #boasted would “#unashamedly #embrace” a “#biblical #worldview”

#Transphobic #Parents #AshleyWilley and #SeanWilley (both have LinkedIn profiles), #sued #Sweetwater #County #SchoolDistrict No. 1 and several district #administrators in #April. They #accused the district of violating their #parentalrights by following their #child’s #requests to use a #male #name and #pronouns at #BlackButte #HighSchool in #RockSprings without notifying them.
#Report #kids are in #crisis, and not because they’re #gay
We shouldn’t be #singlingout certain #students and “#outing” them to #parents and #administrators. We don’t do that for #straightkids #makingout in the #hallway, so we shouldn’t do it for #LGBTQ #kids either.

‘I don’t want to talk to the #gay one’: #LGBTQ #teachers fight #erasure in their #classrooms.
The #surge in bills to #restrict discussion of #pronouns, #genderidentity, and #sexuality fuels a #culture of #audacity, #boldness, and #intolerance among #conservative #parents and #administrators.

Question: I understand that when one posts, the instances on which all my followers live all request that post from my instance (to speed things up).
Are there circumstances in which all those instances also visit a link in that post?
Strange question perhaps, but if true, it would explain some very weird behaviour I'm seeing.
