Ba-de-ya! The September ish is here!

Ba-de-ya! The September issue of The Last Word is now pub, and it's our back-to-school ish!

It talks about schools censoring books, toilets blowing up in Denver parks, our plan to fight continuing totalitarianism, my high school's electron microscope, Old Stopsignface, and more!

So point your pooper here...

Bubbling, Alaska style

Earlier, I received an important e-mail informing me that a young woman bubbled while waiting in line for a train in Alaska.

Did the Prohibition Party take over Louisville?

It wasn't just our imagination. The cities actually are getting worse again in matters of public policy, while rural areas are getting better.

As rural counties in Kentucky vote to loosen alcohol laws, the state's biggest city - Louisville - is seeing protests against Family Dollar stores selling beer.

Louisville today is like Piner 20 years ago.

This is going in the Illness Log!

For the record, since at least Friday, I was plagued by a tonsil stone lodged in my windpipe, and I was running a fever as a result. I wasn't able to dislodge it until this morning.

Campbell County Schools ban 3 books

This happened back in February, but it wasn't covered by main local media until now.

The right-wing Campbell County Schools have generally been hostile to free expression and the interests of the community's young people, and now the district has banned 3 books from its libraries: 'Lucky' by Alice Sebold, 'Tricks' by Ellen Hopkins, and 'Out Of Darkness' by Ashley Hope Perez. What I'm talking about here is not books being removed from required reading lists. Rather, the books were censored from school libraries, so now nobody can even choose to borrow the books.

The district was reportedly reviewing 17 other books.

Are they gonna paddle kids who try to borrow these books?

These acts of censorship came at the direction of some organization that hasn't accomplished much on any issue. That includes fighting against our schools' COVID fascism. I'm just one person, but I've done more to fight against the COVID tyranny in our schools than this group has. I was on it right away, but look how long it took them. They spend more effort yanking books off library shelves than making sure schools are open like normal.

Kind of like the Campbell County Schools do.
