Full text in case you get a paywall:

A toddler was suspended from nursery after being accused of being transphobic or homophobic, The Telegraph can reveal.

Department for Education (DfE) data show the child, aged either three or four, was suspended from a state school in the 2022-23 academic year for "abuse against sexual orientation and gender identity".

The school and further details of the case were not disclosed.

But statistics show that 94 pupils at state primary schools were suspended or permanently excluded for transphobia and homophobia in 2022-23.

These included 10 pupils from year one and three from year two, where the maximum age is seven.

One of these included a child of nursery age, the data show.

'Seems too crazy to believe'

It comes after The Telegraph revealed that children as young as five are being kicked out of schools for attacking their teachers or fellow pupils amid an alarming rise in ill-discipline in Britain's schools.

Helen Joyce, director of advocacy at S*x Matters, said: "Every once in a while, the extremes of gender ideology throw up a story that seems too crazy to believe, and a toddler being suspended from nursery for so-called 'transphobia' or homophobia is one such example.

"Worse still, this is not an isolated case. Apparently 13 four and five-year-olds were suspended or permanently excluded from school for the same reason.

"Teachers and school leaders involved in this insanity should be ashamed of themselves for projecting adult concepts and beliefs onto such young children.

"It's unforgivable for children's vital early education to be so traumatically disrupted by school leaders who prioritise activists' demands over their charges' wellbeing."

Across all state primary schools, the number of pupils suspended or expelled for homophobic or transphobic behaviour increased from 164 in 2021-22 to 178 in 2022-23.

The largest number of suspensions and exclusions for this reason in 2022-23 was in Essex (16), followed by Birmingham (15), Bradford (11) and Norfolk (eight).

The data has only been collected since the 2020-21 academic year, and students can be excluded for multiple reasons.

Lord Young, the director of the Free Speech Union, said: "It beggar's belief that schools are suspending children as young as five for breaching their 'transphobia' policy. I would have thought that if your ideology is so rigid it justifies you punishing toddlers for not complying with it, that's a powerful argument for discarding it in favour of something less dogmatic."

The data also show the number of expulsions and suspensions has increased since the pandemic.

In the 2022-23 academic year, 787,221 pupils were suspended across England's schools, more than double the number in 2016-17.

Of these, some 84,339 were primary school students, an increase of 31 per cent from 64,337.

Students facing permanent exclusions increased by 21 per cent to 9,377 in 2022-23, although the number of primary pupils excluded has fallen by 4.2 per cent over that period.

The trend does not appear to be slowing. The latest figures, for the 2023 autumn term, show suspensions for all reasons jumped by 41 per cent among primary school pupils while permanent exclusions increased by a third (35.2 per cent).

A DfE spokesman said: "All pupils and staff should feel safe and protected at school and should never face violence or abuse.

"The Education Secretary has been clear that she expects school leaders to enforce good behaviour and we are committed to a comprehensive programme of behaviour support for schools.

"Our Plan for Change sets out our relentless focus on making sure every child gets the best life chances, no matter their background, including establishing free breakfast clubs in every primary school, providing access to mental health support and making attendance one of the four core priorities of our school improvement teams."

Depending on the area you go to - big cities like SF and LA? Yes. Mid size cities like Sacramento? Hit or miss. Anywhere in the Central Valley/foothills/northern California? That's trump country.

SF and possibly SD. I'm not going alone, I'm accompanied by my father and my aunt, the latter is a dual citizen. Thanks for the advice!

I'm turning 40 in a few short weeks and have had a hysterectomy so kids are definitely not happening ever for me - and I'm good with that choice. I'm not particularly maternal though and I don't put much stock into family lineage.

With the state of the world I'm increasingly glad I didn't have kids because the world is turning to shit and I would feel horrible bringing a child into this mess.

She also wants a heckin bad person registry

Maybe the good men should do women a favor then and start labeling the bad men. Like, you guys want to insist "Not all men!" Ok, then label the ones who are and aren't. Start calling out the bad behavior you see from men - in person and online. Until you do, or until you develop a labeling system, I don't want to hear shit about not all men. We know. And yet it's the majority of men and too many darn men who are part of the yes all men crowd.

Tons of whining about how all men are meanie poopoo heads and that's why she still alone at 40

Angriest Comments

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

I have two pieces of advice:As others have suggested, I would stay off of Reddit and probably avoid too much news. I realize that this is a little bit like avoiding the doctor because you don't want confirmation that you have cancer, but truthfully, there's way more cost than benefit in getting pissed off every time the administration does something evil or incompetent. Make sure you vote every time an election comes around, but learning that Trump's kids are involved in a new crypto venture isn't going to help you sleep any better, there's nothing you can do to stop it, and frankly the MAGAs aren't going to care when they learn about it. They just want to drink lib tears.When dealing with MAGA friends and family, I think you need to understand that they're more victim than perpetrator, and also understand the role of ego and the sunk cost fallacy in all of this. Regarding them being victims, we're under a constant disinformation attack from foreign nations. When Facebook and Twitte... (1)

I'm not consumed by anger but fear. Everything reminds of that scene in V for Vendetta when the couple is watching television as their country crumbles like this one is currently then eventually they're black-bagged and used in science experiments then killed.I worry about my Facebook account. They're going through immigrants and visitors phones and judging them worthy based on what they find. In my college days I was very active and loud on the left. I've always been left-leaning and they could use all that against me.I have three kids, one is trans, I'm terrified for her. I have a baby now because things happen even though this is the literal worst timeline to give birth in. I live in constant gnawing fear. It's made me a complete coward. I won't speak up because I have no voice, it's been drowned out by fear. I'm terrified for all my friends because they're all either neurodivergent, lgbtq, or both. I'm just so scared they will come for those that speak out and I have a 3 month o... (1)

You make your own peace- or your own chaos. Stop blaming what is "going on" for your own head space. Fake Ice putting people on the street because of Maga ? Maybe you are beyond help after all .. get a grip on yourself and stop believing all the BS you read on Reddit. Go out and live your life stop focusing on the dog and pony show they call politics and remember that the "end of the world" has been happening since the dawn of time. World wars, missle crisis , "Y2K", sea level rise, epidemics/pandemics, (can name many) , now MAGA .. (which is a ridiculous thing to fear). The people you call Maga come in different shapes and sizes with different views and hopes/dreams just like the people that voted against Trump. Stop buying into and feeding the fear and despair and you will start to realize that the things you are trying to enjoy/cherish are still right in front of you and only you are standing in the way of happiness. Think for a second about people living in Real Despair and pov... (1)

Context: /r/Bellingham is the subreddit for the city of Bellingham, Washington, USA. Bayou on Bay was a restaurant located downtown that offered New Orleans style French Cajun meals, oysters, frog legs, gumbo, stuff like that. It was pretty beloved by locals but unfortunately had to close ~2 months ago. I don't know why, but this post has some speculation and people mostly refer to higher insurance & repair costs for the space the restaurant was in.

As a local, I think it's important to note that while the restaurant wasn't particularly loved (*edit: for quality, moreso for its uniqueness and being different), people mostly saw it closing as a sign of the times.

4 days ago, a family known as the "Painter family" announced through Bayou's Instagram and FB that they would be buying the restaurant. See here for the repost to the Bellingham subreddit and further discussion. Not a whole lot of drama (yet)

In the past 24 hours, redditors soon discovered the personal accounts of this "Painter family" and were shocked to discover that the patriarch, Ryan Painter, was posting some pretty hateful things on his Instagram, which sparked a shitload of drama for such a small sub.

Drama Post 1: Sad News 2 (This is a repost / update (?) to a post that was removed by the mods before I could save the link)

The post is a screenshot of Ryan Painter's Instagram showing an AI image of Kamala Harris eating 5 hot dogs, with the caption:

Hot Dog Harris isn't a DEI hire. She earned her way up thru the old fashioned way. A lot of sacrifice and hard work

Dramatic threads:

I don't usually let politics dictate where I'm going to eat, but this post is gross.

...

And buy the groceries from… Fred Meyer? Haggen? Safeway? Heck, even a lot of the higher ups at the Food Co Op. If you spend enough energy looking for MAGA CEO's and Owners, you'll be shocked to find that it's a huge percentage of them. Let's try not to shit on others for not protesting the way we want them to.

She was possibly the worst presidential candidate ever.

No, she's was definitely not as bad of a candidate as the corrupt hateful billionaire who hung with Epstein a shit ton and tried to overturn the previous election and told specific Americans that he hates them on social media.

Jesus. Who cares. Move on with your life and live it without constantly worrying about what others are doing. Especially people that aren't even in a position of power or authority.

I don't like wasting water on weeds in my garden pal, just because you don't care doesn't mean others don't. You chose to stop and comment instead of moving on :)

I'm all for voting with your wallet, however I'm still a bit perplexed by all the hate for wanting America to be great again?

Can someone explain it to my less than knowledgeable smooth brain... For the record, I immigranted from Scotland a couple years ago, and wasn't legally allowed to vote until a month or so ago... I want to understand the hatred, because freedom of speech isn't a thing everywhere...

When was America great, and what made it great?

Drama Post 2: Bayou facebook page comments scrubbed

Looks like Bayou on Bay's Facebook admin deleted all of the critical comments, as well as the son's and daughter's pleas for leniency toward their hotdog-loving father. There was a pretty hefty pile of comments and dialog late last night, but I can't find it now. Thought I'd say something, because the original subreddit thread is getting a little buried.

Dramatic threads:

Full screenshots of Austin Painter (Ryan's son) talking about his father

This is some mealy mouth both sides bullshit. F**k these people.

Maybe business owners should keep their personal opinions and beliefs separate from their business ventures. Frick Bayou for its subpar food quality.

They aren't bad people just because they don't think the same as you, you are sounding awfully like a nazi

Classic centrist pretending to be a leftist move 🤡 thanks for the update.

Centrism absolutely deserves its criticisms but I don't think this is a good example of dumb centrist bullshit, which I think is why you're being downmarseyd.

Maybe think of the workers who take a job because they need money?

SURPRISE MORE DRAMA when it is discovered that the Painter family set up a "Rock & Rye LLC" which is the same name as an entirely unrelated Rock and Rye Oyster company also located downtown. The real life Rock & Rye has the business name but their legal company name is different.

Drama Post 3: Rock & Rye Oyster House confirms they are NOT Rock & Rye LLC associated with Painter family

From the screenshotted Instagram post:

We've recently been made aware that an LLC using the name "Rock & Rye" was formed by an individual with no involvement to our restaurant. We do not know the reason for this and understand the confusion, as we share it.

Rock & Rye remains fully owned and operated by Algonquin Enterprises and has since 2013. While we do business as Rock and Rye Oyster house, that is not the legal name of our business. There is no connection between our restaurant and any actions or online content associated with this other party. Rock & Rye continues to uphold its long-standing values of inclusion, respect, and hospitality.

We're grateful for your continued trust and support. Thanks!

Unfortunately, not a lot of drama in the threads but I do think it's a crazy turn of events that this family, now embroiled in drama, holds the legal rights to the same name as a business that serves a directly competing food item? That's frickin nuts.

Even in her own video telling her side of the story she admits that her husband cooks dinner (or at the very least does half the work), packs the kids for school and drives them, but she can't take it anymore because he asks her what she wants for dinner and what he needs to make sure the kids bring with them.

Listen to her language and look at her mannerisms. He married a career HR woman. Or a therapist. What a nightmare.

Her husband literally climbs utility poles to fix fricking transformers. Meanwhile she works at home. Doing what, you ask? Yeah. This is the job she complains about being late to because her husband occasionally forgets to take out the garbage on his way to POTENTIAL ELECTROCUTION https://t.co/3s1Fn15sG7 pic.twitter.com/bnCG7rObuO

Watching an episode of The FBI from the 1960s:

Peter Graves, Jessica Walter, Captain Merrick from that Roman planet, the Romulan captain from "The Enterprise Incident". I know these people.

Starring Burt Reynolds. Dr. Corby, Mr. Stiles, and Diana Muldaur... I recognize these actors from 5 different roles just on Star Trek shows.

It's the literal front page now folks. RIP /r/RSP.

I have always had problems getting girls. Idk what it is about me but they just dont like anything about who I am. My first impression usually has them running away. If I get through that then they run away after talking to me for 5 minutes. It has been like this since I got out of HS. I'm on the come up now. I'm starting to make decent money and about to take the gym to the next level. I fear that I am going to hate whatever woman meets me at the finish line. How can I respect or love somebody who I know would've hated me before success? What other options do I have celibacy?? Nah. Any of you BIPOCs got some good material I can use to better my game without making me a cuck?
