John Russell at LGBTQ Nation:

A Republican-backed law has led to the removal of hundreds of books from school libraries in one Tennessee county — including a title by children’s author Dr. Seuss. Dr. Seuss’s 1974 children’s book Wacky Wednesday is among more than 400 titles that have been banned from school libraries in Wilson Country, Tennessee following changes made to the state’s 2022 “Age Appropriate Materials Act” earlier this year, local ABC affiliate WKRN reported. On July 1, ahead of the start of the 2024-2025 school year, the Republican-backed H.B. 843 went into effect. The bill, proposed by state Rep. Susan Lynn (R), amended the 2022 law to require schools to remove all material that “contains nudity, or descriptions or depictions of sexual excitement, sexual conduct, excess violence, or sadomasochistic abuse…is not appropriate for the age or maturity level of a student in any of the grades kindergarten through twelve…or is patently offensive…or appeals to the prurient interest.”

While Lynn told WKRN in August that “the goal of this law is to keep sexually explicit materials out of the hands of minors,” the outlet notes that critics have said H.B. 843 is so vague that the Bible could be banned from schools. The law has already led one Wilson County high school to shut down its library.

[...] The removal of Wacky Wednesday from Wilson Country school libraries under the Republican-backed law comes more than three years after right-wing pundits blamed the “woke left” for “canceling” Dr. Seuss. Republicans and conservative outlets painted the children’s book author, who died in 1991, as a victim of so-called “cancel culture” after Dr. Seuss Enterprises announced in March 2021 that it would stop publishing six of his books because they contained racist depictions of characters of color. The company described the books as portraying “people in ways that are hurtful and wrong,” and said in a statement at the time that “Ceasing sales of these books is only part of our commitment and our broader plan to ensure Dr. Seuss Enterprises’s catalog represents and supports all communities and families.” While the decision to stop publishing the six books was made by Dr. Seuss Enterprises, right-wing outlets like Fox News mischaracterized it as a book ban.

Remember when the right-wing media had a hissyfit about 6 Dr. Seuss books being taken out of circulation back in 2021 due to racist depictions of people of color?

Well, the shoe is on the other foot now, as Dr. Seuss book Wacky Wednesday has been taken off school library shelves in Wilson County, TN school libraries due to book ban law HB843.

i finally deleted my old Facebook profile. i only ever used it for my dumpster diving network, and i am working on starting a discord for them because they really can't stay on FB at this point. the group has been infiltrated so many times by retail associates who track divers' movements to report them to the cops and/or booby trap the dumpsters. but the majority of folks who dive for a living (or even just supplemental income or for fun) in the middle and east tn area are boomers/gen x/older millenials who didn't get exposed to the internet while young. their umbilical cord to Zuck is almost impossible to cut, but i gotta try.

Walter Einenkel at Daily Kos:

Gov. Bill Lee of Tennessee told reporters Thursday that he plans to sign Republican-driven legislation that will let teachers carry guns in classrooms.  "What's important to me is that we give districts tools," Lee said of the bill that is predicated on the deranged theory that more guns in schools will somehow create less gun violence.  “That’s what we want more than anything is to add an additional tool, an additional option, for our kids to be as safe as possible in schools.” Passed by the state House on Tuesday, Senate Bill 1325 allows teachers to carry concealed firearms in districts that choose the option and clear it with local law enforcement agencies. This is the latest attempt by members of the GOP-controlled Tennessee Legislature to pretend they are listening to increasing calls from their constituents to do something about gun violence.  Opponents of introducing more guns into schools question how arming teachers with very minimal training is going to stop potential mass shooters from easily purchasing guns, among many other concerns.

Dear Gov. Bill Lee (R-TN), your suggestion that more guns in schools to prevent school shootings is a dangerous idea.

Most Lovely Lizzie: Love Letters of a Young Confederate Soldier by Samuel King Vann

summary

this series of love letters towards the author's love interest Nancy Elizabeth Neel Vann (who will be referenced as "Lizzie" henceforth), a lover of poetry, showcased to what extent an enamoured man will go to solidify his infatuation (Vann 24). Samuel King Vann (who will be informerly referenced as "Sam" henceforth) was raised in Alabama and lived from 15 November 1845-7 July 1870 (killed by his farm animals, which is so silly) and was part of the "Jefferson Warriors," the nineteenth Alabama regiment demoninated by the county in which they originated (BookerWorm). he enlisted with the confederacy from 1863-1865, during which he encountered a number of battles, where he even wrote to Lizzie while under fire from behind a Tree (Vann 37). Sam writes within these letters of how much he adored Lizzie, where he mentioned plenty of times how much he adored her attention and recalled her beauty (Vann 56).

analysis

Sam's seventeen letters transcribed from 3 October 1863-2 February 1865 mainly contain, aside from adoration for Lizzie's "most kind and benevolent" words, his treks across Alabama and Tennesssee (Vann 4). however, there were plenty of letters Lizzie sent, though unavailable in the book, which seemed to be dismissed so the soldier could instead write about his life in detail. Sam mentions throughout his letters how there is "nothing intereseting" to relate in his scribes and somewhat ignores the contents of Lizzie's letters unless they relate to his own predicament's and questions, such as his notion of marriage (Vann 19 and 20). his mention to a near insecure level of his love for Lizzie can be translated as his desire to claim her for nobody but himself, which his previous conviction of matrimony consolidated. Sam's letters never fully mention how serious their relationship is, so it is unclear how one-sided the affection was; the few letters especially mention that Lizzie's letters at this time, if any, were absent from the mail while a clear shift in tone revealed his bitterness over the lack of communication (Vann 56). this confederate even slyly compared his lover's looks with those of random women he saw through his venture doubly as a twisted compliment and way to provoke jealousy (Vann 63).

This month could've been the month of pro wrestling for me, because tomorrow I'll meet the man who played Kane, but last week I could've gone to Smackdown in Knoxville, Tennesssee since I live near there, but it was too late for me to buy tickets.
