I'm kinda/sorta following certain controversies and matters in the news these days…trying to keep up on them without allowing them to occupy so much of my time and brain (two very limited resources) that I don't get other things done.  One topic at which I am peeking is the co-called "Don't Say Gay" bill in Florida. Its backers insist it's just a simple, necessary prohibition of very small kids being protected from those who might groom them to be grow up to be gay or trans…or even tolerant of those who are.  Or something.

There's a lot of arguing over what the bill says and what it would do.  Mark Joseph Stern has an analysis that suggests it might not be as innocent as Florida governor (and aspiring G.O.P. nominee) Ron DeSantis insists.
