California school district shuts down library app after 2nd-graders obtain books that feature sexual assault and pedophile animals



An Orange County, California, school district has suspended its digital library application after complaints by parents that children in the second grade were accessing books they found to be inappropriate.

The school district's new superintendent, Edward Velasquez, announced that the district would be temporarily shutting down the service, called Sora, which allows users to borrow ebooks and audiobooks from a school's library.

One parent found the book called "A Polar Bear in Love" on her second-grade child's app, called "Library Pass," which came on a school-issued iPad.

"The entire manga is about a polar bear who falls in love with a seal," a review of the book states. The male seal pup does not share the same feelings toward the adult bear, however.

In the book, a female polar bear falls in love with the male bear, but is jealous of the baby seal because it is "the object of [the male bear's] affections."

The synopsis also describes the bear telling the seal "that once the latter's all grown up, they'll get married together."

"The moment I saw him, he stole my heart," a video of the animated polar bear shows.


Another parent took issue with a book called "The Music of What Happens," from which she heard swear words "f**k" and "s**t" from the audiobook her second-grade child was listening to. The book, which is about a gay relationship between two high school boys, also discusses rape and details a sexual assault.

A synopsis from the website GoodReads.com describes one of the main characters: "Max: Chill. Sports. Video games. Gay and not a big deal, not to him, not to his mom, not to his buddies. And a secret: An encounter with an older kid that makes it hard to breathe, one that he doesn't want to think about, ever."

The superintendent sent a message to parents about the app, saying such programs "must have the proper safeguards in place to allow parents to choose what they feel is appropriate for their child and ensure students are protected from content that is not age-appropriate."

“Moving forward, a committee will be formed to review app content before apps are approved for installation on student devices," the school official added.

First Gen Z person elected to Congress whines when rental application is denied over his poor credit



The first member of Generation Z to be elected to Congress complained that his rental application was denied because of his poor credit.

Community organizer Maxwell Alejandro Frost won a U.S. House seat for Florida, but he's having trouble finding a place to rent in Washington, D.C.

"Just applied to an apartment in DC where I told the guy that my credit was really bad. He said I’d be fine. Got denied, lost the apartment, and the application fee," tweeted Frost from his official social media account.

"This ain’t meant for people who don’t already have money," he added.

Members of the House get paid about $174,000 a year. The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment in D.C., according to Rent.com, is $2,435.

Frost went on to explain that he had bad credit as a result of the expenses he incurred while running for Congress.

"Didn’t make enough money from Uber itself to pay for my living," he tweeted. "For that primary, I quit my full time job cause I knew that to win at 25 yrs old, I’d need to be a full time candidate. 7 days a week, 10-12 hours a day. It’s not sustainable or right but it’s what we had to do."

Socialist Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York had a similar complaint when she was first elected, saying that she could not afford the rent in D.C. before obtaining her first congressional paycheck. She then complained when Fox News hosts mocked her and her wardrobe.
