Porque no los dos? I think that religious/spiritual holidays like All Saints and Samhein should remain as they are, and Halloween as a secular holiday should be on a day more appropriate for partying. Fridays would also be acceptable.
The district pointed to a state law enacted in 2022, which mandates that school sports teams must be designated “based on the biological sex of the students who participate” in the sport.

(An appeals court upheld that injunction last year, and the Supreme Court declined to take up the case this summer.)
No, I keep a TBR and use a random number generator to select my next read. I have no problem DNRing because I have no problem finding new titles that look interesting and life is too short to read them all.

Feed by MT Anderson, published in 2002 had a good take on how they algorithms and advertisements would run our lives.
For Titus and his friends, it started out like any ordinary trip to the moon — a chance to party during spring break. But that was before the crazy hacker caused all their feeds to malfunction, sending them to the hospital to lie around with nothing inside their .heads for days. And it was before Titus met Violet, a beautiful, brainy girl who has decided to fight the feed and its ever-present ability to categorize human thoughts and desires. M.T. Anderson’s not-so-brave new world is a smart, savage satire that has captivated readers with its view of an imagined future that veers unnervingly close to the here and now.
