Teen died from eating baklava after school staff who were aware of her fatal allergy said there were no nuts inside, then never called for help: Lawsuit

#Florida, once again, at the forefront of the #MAGA death cult. Shameful. "Re: social accommodations, Winsor acknowledged the harm but dismissed its significance, arguing that denying long hair & gender-appropriate clothing does not rise to the level of “grossly incompetent” care or an 8th Amendment violation. . . . Winsor claimed that social transition is not medically necessary & suggested psychotherapy as an adequate alternative." https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/federal-court-rules-in-favor-of-forcibly

Missed the better shot with both birds...

Male and female red-shouldered #hawks together on a wire. Male flew off before I could get the shot.

What you would have seen is that the female is discernibly larger than the male (as is typical for birds of prey). This is the female a bit puffed up because it was a cold morning.

They make a nice couple based on their calls to each other throughout the day! 🙂

"I have said it before, and will say it again: When #books are banned from school libraries, run to your public library, or the nearest bookstore, and read what it is your elders don't want you to know."

- Stephen King

(Over 50 books by King have been banned in schools across Florida.)

Giving the GDL a taste of their own medicine 🔥 :antifa_100: :trantifa:

500 flyers were sent to GDL leader Dominic DiGiorgio's closest neighbors.

Dominic DiGiorgio runs the GDL's neo-Nazi merchandise shop out of his Port St. Lucie home. Many of the Nazi flyers that litter the country are shipped out of his home.

#Florida has made it easier to involuntarily commit people & is committing #children at higher rates than other states.

In 2020, Florida involuntarily committed a 6-year-old with #ADHD, a case that made national news.

A new lawsuit says it’s violating the law.

DeSantis already acting like a military dictator.

Will #Trans and #LGBTQ youth be next?

US President-elect Donald Trump described the recent ousting of Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad by Ankara-backed rebels as an "unfriendly takeover" orchestrated by Turkey. Speaking at a press conference at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Monday, Trump characterised Turkey's actions as "very smart" while emphasizing the brutality of Assad's regime. #us #usa #news #minimarketonlineltd #minimarket #America #SaveAmerica #trump #donaldtrump #Syria #Turkey #Florida #BasharAssad #Ankara

Cthulhu tree stump in Florida
http://imgur.com/gallery/ocXcLUF

#trees #Cthulhu #Lovecraft #HPLovecraft #Florida #plants #monsters
A bizarrely twisted tree in a sunlit woodland clearing, surrounded by a carpet of dry brown leaves. The tree curls back down on itself, its thick branches snaking tightly around its own trunk and curling into the ground. The general appearance is beautifully monstrous, as though the branches were tentacles. A roughly circular scar on the bark where you might expect to see an eye, if this were a creature, strengthens its Cthulhu-like vibes. A few metres beyond it are ferns and upright trees.


We have little in common with the group posting this video and I suspect most of you are not religiously inclined, but this is a shockingly good homily from a priest in #Florida, who denounced Trump's pick of Mike Huckabee for Ambassador to #Israel and demanded that the killing in #Gaza must stop. In a nutshell, #Catholic teaching holds that Jesus' kingdom is within us and not in some physical realm like Israel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5maZ7HumgIg


FLORIDA: The leader of the neo-Nazi organization Jon Minadeo is currently packing up to move from his Port St. Lucie home to Arkansas.

#Florida officials report hundreds of books removed from schools

#Beloved by #ToniMorrison, #NormalPeople by #SallyRooney and #SlaughterhouseFive by #KurtVonnegut, among books pulled

by Coral Murphy Marcos
Tue 12 Nov 2024 23.10 EST

"Florida’s department of education has released a list of more than 700 books that were 'removed or discontinued' from schools across the state after changes to a state law last year that allows parents and residents to challenge the content of #LibraryBooks.

"This year’s list, which has doubled in size from last year, includes titles such as Beloved by Toni Morrison, Normal People by Sally Rooney, and Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut.

"The list comes after #HouseBill1069 went into effect last July, requiring school districts to set up a mechanism for parents to object to anything they consider pornographic or inappropriate.

"Since then hundreds of titles have been removed from elementary, middle and high school libraries. In Florida, 33 out of about 70 school districts #BannedBooks.

"American classics such as #BraveNewWorld by #AldousHuxley, #ForWhomTheBellTolls by #ErnestHemingway and The Adventures of #TomSawyer by #MarkTwain are among those that have been pulled. Contemporary novels by bestselling authors such as #MargaretAtwood and #StephenKing have also been removed.

"Members of the #FloridaFreedomToReadProject, a group comprised of public school parents, said the measure has led to an unprecedented rise in #censorship, mostly driven by conservative interest groups, and has limited students’ access to diverse #literature.

“'We believe in a fair, thorough, and public objection process that ensures decisions reflect the needs of each school community - not the broad, district-wide censorship we see today that’s inspired by the vague language in #HB1069 and ‘bad book’ lists like this one,' the group said in a statement.

“'Censorship is happening right here in Florida. Lists like this that include award-winning, #ClassicLiterature and books about #BanningBooks cannot be spun or shoved into a narrative about extremely targeted removals,' they added.

"#PENAmerica found that Florida and #Iowa recorded the highest number of book bans during the 2023-2024 school year, leading in the country with over 4,500 book bans in Florida and over 3,600 in Iowa. These bans have cost districts about $34,000 to $135,000 a year.

"A study on educational censorship in Florida found a 'climate of compliance, fear and stress' that threatens students’ academic performance and the well-being of both teachers and students'."

A Spirit Airlines plane was hit by gunfire while trying to land in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, the company says. A flight attendant was injured and the flight from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, was diverted to the Dominican Republic, where an inspection showed damage consistent with gunfire. Spirit says they are suspending service to Haiti as they evaluate the incident. Read more from @NBCNews.

A little bit of Democrat joy from @bolts as they report on Monique Worrell, the state attorney who was ousted by Ron DeSantis last year, and beat her replacement, Federalist Society member Andrew Bain, to win her job back.

Children's Day of Action for Palestine and Lebanon

- Tampa, Sunday Nov 10th, 1:30 pm

#Tampa #TampaBay #Palestine #Lebanon #Florida #Genocide


For some reason #Israelis seem to be happy about the #floods that so far have killed more than 200 #Spaniards.

After #Spain recognized the State of #Palestine and despite condemning the Hamas attack against Israel, many Israeli netizens posted on their social networks that they are glad that hundreds of Spaniards have died due to the floods.

Some of them have said this is a divine punishment to Spain for recognizing Palestine and stopping some explosives shipments to #Israel, similarly to how some of them believed #Florida was hit by hurricanes due to the pro Palestine protests.

Every time I hear something about #Florida, I comfort myself by reminding myself that the whole damn state will be under water before too long.


"Pressed by Moms for Liberty, #Florida school district adds clothing to illustrations in classic children's #books"
https://popular.info/p/pressed-by-moms-for-liberty-florida

Apart from the #education & #censorship issues here, & the "liberty" of a minority to dictate what everyone else can see, there's a #copyright issue. But it seems that the school hand-drew clothing on the book pages (which is lawful under #FirstSale) & did not reprint copies with altered images (which would be infringement).

"#Florida school district removes dictionaries from #libraries, citing law championed by #DeSantis"
https://popular.info/p/florida-school-district-removes-dictionaries

PS: It turns out to be a myth that Victorians covered piano legs for the sake of modesty. But one day people will hear that Floridians removed dictionaries from school libraries for the sake of modesty, or prudery, or protecting the children, and wonder whether it's a myth. The truth will be out there, but not in Florida libraries.
