Trump admin have removed Julianne Moore’s book “Freckle Face Strawberry” from Pentagon run schools.

It was about learning to love your freckles & skin you’re in.

As a disabled woman who’s also a natural redhead… this doesn’t feel awesome.

Gingers are bullied in school. They are treated as “different”. There’s little awareness or advocacy around it, and Moore’s book was a great option!

This level of censorship must be stopped.

When I originally threw a #plot #complication at the #ttrpg group, I thought it would be neat to show them the #consequences of their decisions. What I did not expect was that the player characters would build up an overlapping web of possibilities and differences of opinions, looping in three #backstories while discussing what to do with the #shifty #NPC they captured. And they considered possibilities that I had not! Clearly I should throw more false #gingers at them 😁

PSA for #RedHead folks, #gingers, or whatever else you lovely people with #RedHair call yourselves!

If you didn’t already know, a LOT of redheads need more #anesthesia than average for their size (but may also be more sensitive to opioid meds)! Here’s a couple reference links if you find yourself needing to enlighten an uninformed doctor: https://www.healthline.com/health/redheads-and-anesthesia
