Finally, this is what is keeping Texas in the bottom half of educational rankings, the kids meowing. Just take care of that and things will turn right around.

Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

So... more laws to stop things that aren't happening. Guessing the driver is still that old satire article from like 14 years ago claiming that schools were adding litterboxes to school bathrooms to be more furry inclusive.
I 100% guarantee you that this bill will be used as cover to pass amendments for very unpopular things.
The whole furries thing will get the news coverage while their stripping of rights and protections will go mostly unnoticed.
It's classic Republican politics.
It's not "politics". Anybody who looks at Trump and says "that's my guy" is mentally ill; a danger to society and themselves, and should be treated as such.
Since they directly mentioned litterboxes you might be onto something
What in the actual fucking fuck.
This is a response to viral regressive propaganda from a couple years ago about primary students being allowed to 'identify' as animals as well as use litter boxes, etc in school classrooms that was pressed again during the recent US election season.
So wait—kids aren’t allowed to play dinosaurs during recess anymore?
Dinosaurs are evolutionist propaganda so of course not.
Other physiological features that have not historically been assigned to the human race through a means of natural biological development
I hope some kids start showing up naked. Like are piercings out now?
The only shred of truth to the assertion that schools allow kids to use litter boxes was a Colorado school district that provided buckets with cat litter... for potty emergencies... in case of an active shooter event.
Only in America.
That's not very >^uwu^< of you, Texas.
I wasn't going to before. But now I'm just going to wear my ears in public doing normal errands and shit like going to the bank, just to spite assholes like this.
You're the kind of person I like in the world. I hope you have a great day, today.
Thank you, you as well!
Maybe once they are done solving imaginary problems they will work on real ones.
The GOP only 'solve' the imaginary emergencies they make up. No real work happens. It's called government supported welfare, taking pay but no work.
No, that's not it at all. The real work happens as they quietly make the real problems deliberately worse, in order to enrich themselves and their cronies.
Sorry, but government doesn’t work. Haven’t you heard? They don’t generally have plans to actually govern.
Being Furry is now Punk! Genuinely already liked Furries but now they're fellow enemies of the state for being happy as themselves.
Who am I kidding, a lot of them are also autistic and queer. They've been the target for decades, its where all "anti-furry" stuff comes from.
Yes the issues that matter
This will lower egg prices. See many furries dress as foxes and foxes have been known to go after our American hens. By outlawing being a fox furry we are protecting our hens and thus lowering egg prices.
Texans are only allowed to cosplay as cowboys.
Every time I see some suburbanite idiot in boots and a cowboy hat I die a little inside
And what would be the punishment for doing one of these prohibited actions by a student? And who is to enforce it? And distressing that the made up litter box right wing propaganda would make it into an actual law.
Maybe we should make a law against kids fucking couches and other furniture also! I'm sure JD would endorse it!
Dear students in Texas. Every time a teacher asks you something, moo. Never say anything to anyone at school but moo. The More You Know.
Bro is this for real? What the fuck
So kids are no longer allowed to bark or meow in school?
Unironically yes.
