I found more "furry" video from that school. https://kezj.com/furries-dress-code-protest-utah/ It's from the protest and it's over an hour long. I have only listened to a few minutes of it, in bits and pieces. I can't make sense out of it. As I said in earlier posts, I thought I had, but s...

My school still used the cane. That's how old I am. Here in America, there are still places where paddles are used. I thought for sure they would die out completely after "50 Shades of Grey" was so popular. I look back at my own experience in early grades, and while paddles were employed ...

Looks pretty legit, and the Fail is occasionally right. Kelsey James, a spokesperson for the Utah State Board of Education, said that a small group of students had been wearing headbands with animal ears, prompting other pupils to throw food at them, according to KSL.com. I'd say the timeline goes ...

If you can't trust The Daily Mail, who can you trust: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13328017/utah-school-bomb-threat-furries-mt-nebo-student-protest.html And yes, it is the most complete, and I believe accurate story I have seen on the subject.

That idea is a couple of years old at least, and yeah it's absolute bullshit. There's a new wrinkle this time, though. Over the last couple of years, there were incidents where someone said at a school board meeing, "What next? People identifying as cats?" or, "I heard that there's a...

My workplace cafeteria actually has very good food, and today there was a great salmon dish. I thought about Friday fish day, and its relation to this thread topic. What I'm referring to is taking an idea from religion and totally distorting it, but still claiming virtue. So, Catholics weren't allow...

Although I can't see the threads anymore, I can still see the membership statistics. It looks like there has been a significant jump in active members, following years of steady declines. Maybe other people, like me, were pure lurkers and decided to jump in as members? I''m spending enough time here...

Some quick googline shows that there has been significant increase in hte cancer rates, especially colo-rectal, among people under 50 in the last 10-20 years. Of course, the headlines are written to grab as much attention as possible. Is a marked increase going from almost none to twice almost none?...

The health toll from the promotion of unhealthy foods is something we are just beginning to feel. I have certainly read that "experts", (I hate that word because in pop media it's never sourced, so maybe they aren't experts at all) predict lower life expectancy as obseity-related diseases...
