NEW: Brazilian politician Fabiana Bolsonaro performs blackface to show trans people that putting dark foundation on her face doesn't make her black, just like changing your body doesn't make you a different gender. The incident was reportedly a protest against the appointment of federal lawmaker Erika Hilton, a trans woman. "I am painted black on the outside. I identify as black. So why can't I preside over the anti-racism commission? Why can't I take care of this agenda? Because I am not black."

The California Department of Education has not released any statement on Monday’s opinion from the US Supreme Court in Mirabelli v. Bonta, but it did finally add the notice mandated by the district court in December on their page entitled “Protections for LGBTQ+ Students: AB 1955,” which says, “Parents and guardians have a federal constitutional right to be informed if their public school student child expresses gender incongruence.” And yet, the CDE has failed to revise the rest of the content on that page, so that it continues to assert that sharing such information with parents is a violation of the children’s constitutional rights. Although this case did not directly address the constitutionality of that particular state law, the Supreme Court expressly rejected the argument that a child has a privacy interest in this situation that trumps the parents’ constitutional rights. It appears that the CDE may intend to defy the courts and continue to encourage schools to violate parental rights.

In Japanese, "tsundoku" means collecting books and letting them pile up, not from neglect, but for the joy of knowing they're there, full of untold stories.

Today I packed up 25 little boxes of Terffles. One got sacrificed for photos, so there are 24 left. Amaretto-Amarena Cherry, Raspberry, Pistachio, and C3 Spice (Cardamom-Cinnamon-Cayenne in dark chocolate ganache). Link in first comment.
