People, young and old, came to the witch for directions. "I seek adventure." "I seek wisdom." "I need a place to feel at home." "I feel like I need to cry, but I can't." The witch listened, and told all where to find what they sought. And the local library thrived. #CrossRepost

Underfunded schools looking for cuts often look at programs for disabled students first. The result deprives them of a free appropriate education in a least-restrictive environment. The Departments of Justice and Education used to be the entities people could turn to for accountabuiltiy, but now?

4/ If you're curious, we now know 236,192 cases of lettuce were recalled. Only 2.5% of that was from Taco Bell, while almost half was supplied to Walmart. This makes Taylor Farms’ communications that much more atrocious because it means that many got sick when everyone thought it was just Taco Bell

This actually is the root of a lot of my anger and frustration, and yes, grief. I spent years crafting accessible classrooms, advocating for tech, and now every measure I use for access is misused by (mostly able-bodied) students who want to cheat with gAI. And our institutions are no fucking help.

Your regular reminder that there is no legal path from martial law to suspending elections in this country. That doesn't mean there is no path. It just means that we need to reject the framing that the federal government has any legal authority to cease elections.

Apparently there’s money for a script about Gaston’s backstory. Which sounds a lot like an abuse-apologist bit of propaganda in the making. I’d like a sequel tv series that is Belle reading a story from the library to the village kids. Extra points for gratuitous library footage.
