I saw a Stelter article about the current administration stripping inconvenient parts of history from its websites. It’s the next of a good number of censorship acts by the current leaders (including the military service of Jackie Robinson? Come on, now) and it got me thinking, what are the texts that we should focus on preserving?

While digital texts are probably the most in danger, the book banning crowd is getting more vicious in small areas around the country.

I figured this was the best place to ask: what should we be trying to save from this blatant historical rewriting?

I’m making my way through the FF series and finally sank my teeth into 15. I had tried once before but honestly I bounced off the combat tutorial hard with a lack of interest.

The gang was immediately likable. It took seconds for them to endear themselves and just hanging out in the car was a fantastic time. “Boys roadtrip” is such a fun concept for a grand fantasy adventure and they absolutely nailed that aspect. Hell, I even liked the little addition of having to fill up on gas and plan my trips on not running
