      @@feffygracie More books were pulled from shelves in Florida public schools compared to any other state during the past school year, a new report released Thursday by PEN America found. The nonprofit, which advocates for freedom of expression, recorded 3,362 instances of bans in public school classrooms and libraries from July 2022 to June 2023 across the country. Out of these, about 1,400 - or 40% of the national total - took place in Florida.

    Never heard of this author, but here’s a comment to see if Carl Jr225 will admit to desecrating the human ashes last week of someone who passed in 2013, yet again
    I recall in our first convo, Carl225 got so mad he started repeating himself, then got even more upset when I did it back.
    Then on the "Tension between criminal, political investigation" thread ~Me: You're so mad I can hear you seething from here
    Carl225: *failed at a mom joke
    Me: So you don't know what seething means...and you just admitted to entering my late mother's home 6 days ago, without permission and desecrating her ashes. She passed in 2013
    Carl225: *Continues desperately trying to save face and get the last word
    The thread is still there for everyone to see. And I've taken a screenshot, in case I feel like pursuing charges, since you admitted to 2 crimes
