Just about the worst possible example these administrators can give to the young people they are educating. It reminds me of the high school administrators who burned Kurt Vonnegut's book Slaughterhouse Five decades ago, for students to see. Borders on child abuse.

Donald lunged into Rachel Scott's face and growled, bellowed at her in red-faced rage.
That's an abuser. Right there. I've been there, on the sharp end of it. Any woman who has been there sees it here.

Plug-in solar isn’t going to replace utility-scale solar farms or 10kW rooftop arrays, but it fills the missing bottom layer of the clean energy transition.
Beyond the savings, I like that I’m reducing my contribution to climate change, and that feeling’s invaluable.

Most American have zero interest in the US government treating one of our most important historical allies and trading partners like this. But the worst among us is running the country, thanks to the worst and most irresponsible voters among us.

Possible for rare book dealers to ID who the buyer is and decline the sale? Glad I can say I've never done business with Amazon, it hasn't been easy. I hope I can avoid doing that in the future.
New from 404 Media: we solved which AI company is buying massive shipments of rare books, scanning and destroying them to train AI.
We put an Apple AirTag in a rare book, followed it. It ended up at an Amazon facility. Its logo is a dinosaur ripping through a book www.404media.co/we-tracked-a...
