TO CLARIFY: The 988 lifeline is STILL able to be used! I feel that this post can be very easily misinterpreted. Like, this is so misleading. What happened is that DOGE cut staff who work for this lifeline as well as one that's specifically dedicated to veterans. Is this evil as fuck? Yes, absolutely, especially since this lifeline has had literally MILLIONS of callers as of 2024. Can you still use the 988 number in the US? YES, and if you ever feel the need to use it, please do. You may use any of the above resources. Stay safe out there, everyone. 🧡

In a heartwarming story of community and education, a Mississippi teacher, Ms. Hooper, transformed an abandoned storefront in Yazoo City into a school called Abundance Academy, attracting students and offering an alternative to traditional schooling. Ms. Hooper, a former special education and social studies teacher, saw a need in her community and decided to create a microschool in an empty storefront. Abundance started with just six students, including her own children, and has since grown to accommodate about 50 students in prekindergarten through 12th grade, with a waiting list. Some students have come to Abundance to escape bullying, potential school shootings, anti-Black racism or feeling invisible in larger, traditional schools. The community-driven school is a space where students can "breathe," and Ms. Hooper aims to instill empathy, curiosity, and resilience. While the school operates in a converted storefront, Ms. Hooper dreams of a larger, permanent space and more resources to support the growing number of students. The Mississippi Delta, where Yazoo City is located, faces challenges with teacher shortages and scarce resources in public schools, while wealthier families often opt for private education. Ms. Hooper's approach is an example of innovative teaching and a response to the needs of families seeking alternatives to traditional schooling. Ms. Hooper hopes to achieve financial stability to finally pay herself and support the school's operations. Tuition is $300 a month and the school gets no public funds. But parents across the country are embracing alternatives to traditional classrooms, including microschools, empowered by technology and motivated by the pandemic.

AKELA COOPER, you brilliant sonuvabitch genre writer.... The fact that HELL FEST, MALIGNANT, and M3GAN are all written from a Black woman's gaze and are mostly dwelling in the "camp" space... IMO, makes the larger sociological niches she's mining (akin to Romero's Dawn of the Dead in sociopolitical prescience) that much more invisible in how apt and *well* she's doing it. But society will eventually catch-up. Her debut, HELL FEST was about a white man, a normal person day-to-day who hides a horrific alter-ego to kill for one night, which gives so many of the Christian family men online calling Rachel Zegler a "cunt"... MALIGNANT was ultimately about women's body autonomy, choice and sisterhood, beneath all the *amazingly* fun bloody campy action scenes. ...And finally, we have M3GAN, who unlike the naive Alita: Battle Angel (written from the male gaze), is snarky, in control, and perfectly aware of how to manipulate the gaze on her girl-child-like visage to her own control and advantage. Also, ...the usage of Britney Spears?! *PER-FECT* People keep sleeping on Akela Cooper and one day, they'll catch-up.
