Brics & Bouqs

Brickbat 

 

To Ron DeSantis (again) for permanently removing AP Psychology courses from all Florida high school curricula. According to DeSantis, the mere chapters in an AP Psych book that discuss gender identity and sexual orientation are enough to tarnish the minds of our youth — even though the class only focuses on how sex and gender influence socialization and other aspects of development. For someone who hates the discussion of gender studies, it sure is all he can talk about! Maybe gender identity is something he struggles with? 

 

Bouquet

To Winn-Dixie Bloomin’ 4 Good Program for supporting local hunger organizations. With every Bloomin’ 4 Good bouquet sold (look for the red circle sticker!), Winn-Dixie will donate $1 to local hunger organization which equates to a donation of 10 meals for people in need. Since launching the program in Oct. 2021, the supermarket chain has provided more than 2.2 million meals to 1,575 hunger organizations.
