Far right extremists have particularly targeted LGBTQ+ books for banning. As mentioned in the vid, 26% of all of the literature removed from public school libraries last year featured LGBTQ+ characters or themes.
This edition of Velshi Banned Book Club focuses on the homophobic banning of books and the effect of such banning on LGBTQ+ youth.
Book banning is influenced by officials at the state and local level.
In Florida, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis and the GOP state legislature are responsible for the state's infamous "Don't Say Gay" law. 🤬
In Illinois, Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker and the Democratic state legislature have actually banned the banning of books. 😎
While there will always be minor exceptions, states run by Republicans are likely to pursue homophobic policies and states run by Democrats are going to be more LGBTQ+ friendly. That definitely includes attitude towards books.
BTW, are you registered to vote? Have you registered at your new address if you've moved since the last time you voted?

Like what’s even the point of a bucktommy break up where Buck sluts it up with men if you can’t even show them both in a dark gay bar back room getting head from other men while not being able to look away from each other
#tommy kinard rebounds w Brian Kinney and they fall in love and bond over young men who break ur heart and live happily ever after#bucktommy#911 abc

It seems today,
It seems today that all you see,
Is violence on streaming

Luckily, there's a Family Spy.
(This has been in my head for as long as September. SUFFER WITH ME!!)

the bikeriders 2023 bringing that ache inside back into the body :') thanks for the rec @gromky 💘
#me is mark#gromkyyyy i finally watched it#i was definitely going to like it because the primary elements already appealed to me#biker culture + male or homosocial bonds & communities + what johnny and benny have (which can be compared to what dom and brian have)#(not the same relationship at all ofc but it's nice to view them side by side in my mind)#and came out of it really loving it and also overcome with a kind of sadness fog#that leaves me feeling lighter and relieved#the kind of deeply-felt sensation that's also kind of like pain i really love getting from stories

Thinking about Tayrn Smithson saying that Rumpleteazer feels like without Mungojerrie she'd be all alone :(
#she also says she's afraid that without mungo she wouldn't have the community ? because he introduced her to the junkyard#she says she might go down a darker path without that and mmmm omg#she plays Rumpleteazer (and Brian does as well) as still working for Macavity during the show#and seeing Grizabella as a reflection of what she could have become if she hadn’t been so lucky#(many Demeter and Bombalurina actresses share similar thoughts about their characters)#but Rumpleteazer feels different (at least to me) since she’s younger than them#and one of her defining traits is literally “impressionable” so you can imagine how much worse it was for her to be working for Macavity#But then there’s that small glimmer of hope—meeting Mungojerrie#who makes her feel less alone#who understands her and accepts her#even though he’s also done things he’s not proud of and she feels she can relate to him so much.#And she’s so afraid of losing him and that bond.#Take that as you will#but she did say her Rumpleteazer has a crush on Mungojerrie#based on the “facts” Chrissie Cartwright gave her#either way im ill about Rump#rumpleteazer#mungojerrie#mungoteazer#ifyouwant

Starting to think I need to put The Starship Rangers in the Mech's universe. It would probably feel very crack treated seriously at best but I can't stop thinking about it.
#also i feel like brenn in the stars claim them fic (lyf's kid sister who i adore) would LOVE the starship rangers#their whole thing is exploring the galaxy meeting aliens and helping everyone out. or at least our main cast.#truly think her and bug would relate to each other#but maybe I'm just terribly biased for both of them lmao#also i think Megagirl would should get to chat with Brian and Aurora#let them bond. let them cook. etc etc.#the mechanisms#team starkid#starship starkid

"Why do Britain’s guitar heroes become household names – yet its piano and organ players don’t? Let’s end this injustice, writes Elton John, as he pays tribute to all those thrilling showmen eternally confined to the wings" "I realised incredible keyboard players were everywhere: not just Zoot Money but Georgie Fame, Brian Auger, Graham Bond, Rod Argent. They were all doing something different with the keyboards; each of them had their own personality. "
"Rod Argent was the engine room of the Zombies. He wrote She’s Not There and his playing takes it to another level. It’s very English-sounding, very reserved and melancholy, then out of nowhere he plays this incredible solo that’s soulful but slightly classically influenced. It both fits the song perfectly and takes it somewhere else." "We think of heavy rock as a guitarist’s art, but in Deep Purple, Jon Lord was experimenting with distortion to give the organ a sound as hard-driving as the guitars. So did Rod Argent when the Zombies broke up and he started Argent."
- Elton john
#elton john#rod argent#the zombies#argent#argent band#zoot money#georgie fame#brian auger#graham bond#deep purple#jon lord#the full article is in the link#but i just wanted these parts here where he mentioned rod

another doodle page for the beauty and the beast au (Brian and the beast, if I may)
cogsworth lyf and lumiere Tim getting into shenanigans ft an interaction from one of the first posts of this au, (un)creature jonny mourning his beautiful hair, the return of nastya :) I think castle aurora is shaped like the mechs logo and I pray the sketch in the bottom left reads as such. the next page has brians first search for carmilla (whoever brought up the idea of him calling for his mama ripped my heart out) also best wingmen Tim and Bertie, potential Bertie design, and Court Enchantress Carmilla. I am unwell about all of this, continue feeding the fire please I'm begging you
real quick gonna tag @rocksanddeadflowers and @blazeismyname
#ebb rambles#I need to draw more I have so many ideas#carmilla telling nastya she doesn't have to take the blame for the curse. Brian searching the castle for carmilla and crying before aurora-#leads him to the dungeons. Brian and raphaella playing piano. Tim and ashes love of fire especially now that they are both well suited for-#arson now. Brian and jonny cuddles. the war trio just in general but especially first meeting and bonding as they travel. Marius reacting-#to lyf immediately post curse removal. toy soldier being genuinely terrifying rallying a mob to save it's friend. carmilla waltzing in at-#the end like no worries guys it's just the consequences of my actions :D Brian tied to the tree (both times). Brian and ivy reading togethe#do you think Brian would read with ivy on his shoulder and check to make sure she was done with the page before he flipped to the next page#too many ideas not enough time!!!!#I've decided Tim bertie and lyf are sun moon stars coded#the creations and consequences of love#ebb draws stuff#the consequences of creation and love
