Rosie thinks the election actually isn’t that close & she might be onto something…

about the election. “Keep calm, and hand out some Halloween candy!”The queer icon posted her latest TikTok Tuesday, a nearly 10-minute video in which she talks about her Halloween plans and favorite memories from gay people’s favorite holiday. Stay woke with our briefing while staying informed on all things LGBTQ+ entertainment, life, and more!One of Trump’s most vociferous critics–and favorite targets–one might wonder how Rosie is keeping herself together just six days before arguably the most volatile election of our lifetime.

Answer? She seems to be practicing a form of radical acceptance and surrendering to the present moment. “On a scale of 10 being ‘can’t think of anything else and may need additional education,’ I’m like at a 7. That’s alright.

I can handle a 7,” Rosie said. “I’m trying not to watch so much of the news now.”“I’m trying to recite that amazing prayer you do in AA about the wisdom to do the difference between the things you can and cannot change. If you voted, if you donated if you could, whatever you did, participated, and now, you’ve got a week left to worry.

the things that cannot be changed,

School Book Bans: Texans Reject Pro-Censorship Hopefuls
recent rise in book bans, with PEN America reporting that the 2022-23 academic year saw 3,362 instances of book banning, a 33 percent increase from the previous year.Frank Strong, a teacher in Austin, Texas, who tracks school board elections, wrote in his Anger & Clarity newsletter that nine of the 15 candidates who ran on banning certain books from schools lost their races."Voters decided again to reject some of the worst, most anti-book candidates," Strong wrote, adding, "And, what's more, these results continued a clear pattern, stretching back through four election cycles to November 2022, of voters successfully organizing to resist extremist takeovers of their school boards."Strong tracked the races using a 23-page document that he compiled, which includes information on the candidates, whether they are for or against book bans, and what they have said about censorship in the past.Strong also tracked whether candidates were supported by groups such as Moms for Liberty, which advocates for "parental rights at all levels of government" and has worked to prevent schools from teaching LGBTQ+ content.Moms for Liberty supporters say American schools should focus their efforts on the country's illiteracy rate instead of teaching children about "gender ideology." Newsweek contacted Moms for Liberty for comment via email outside normal working hours.In September, Moms for Liberty endorsed Brandi Burkman in her school board election.
