If it is any consolation, most of your school dollars are being wasted in more traditional ways.

Like Bill Maher, I consider Sean Penn a far lefty  that I don't like. He's about to be cancelled for being conservative:

It is possible it was something that was just never talked about (among boys at least), but I don't remember the school providing that stuff when I was a kid.  People complain the schools are trying to take over parenting, but it seems a lot of people are fine with that when it comes to feeding the kids and buying "supplies" for them.

I think it is pretty common for public restrooms in institutions to have pads in the women's room.

Really excited for the house sex ed bill hearing later today. Teaching comprehensive, queer inclusive, pleasure based sex ed was a highlight of my time teaching ✨

Yeah, no matter what you're teaching kids about sex, it comes off as a little creepy to be that excited about it.

Especially when it's other people's kids.

Especially when you're glorifying lust, promiscuity, perversion and abomination.

Just filtering down. The Feds have been doing that in some selected agencies* for a while now. About a year before I retired the Veterans  Affairs had started placing feminine hygiene products in ALL of the rest rooms, men's, women's, family and even the Nursing Mothers room.

* probably all agencies by now.

Back when I was doing a lot of shooting, and a lot of traveling, I put together a small framed collection of gas station "novelties" that was hung in the bathroom for my home theater.
 
My favorite was the "Slick Willie."
 
It was just one frame, with maybe a dozen items in it on cotton balls, and... it went missing... Sigh...

Can you imagine the MSM reaction if someone on the right had said anything remotely similar?

    • What I believe ...
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

I for one am glad they're only hiring mentally stable people to important positions.

I was just thinking that in olden days a glimpse of stocking was looked on as something shocking. Now, heaven knows, anything goes.

Y' know, good authors who once knew better words, now only use four letter words writing prose, anything goes. The world has gone mad today and good's bad today and black's white today and day's night today.

I guess I summed that up pretty good for myself.

That can't be real. It just can't. If it is, one's spider senses need to start tingling as one ponders why a billionaire wants this appointment.
