Let's see if my hometown school board makes the right decision on something, possibly for the first time ever.

This, of course, being the school board that banned *checks notes* ... Hats.

...In a place that's below freezing 2/3rds of the year.

Fairbanks school board reviews district library policy amid community concerns The Fairbanks School Board is scheduled to look at Article Six of its policy, including what materials are allowed in different school libraries across the district.

Alaska school district considering policy to classify graphic novels as legally obscene. This over-expansive redefinition of "seriously offensive material with no literary value" is a serious risk to comics media nationwide. www.alaskasnewssource.com/2025/12/02/f...

The Supreme Court's tariff argument is still ongoing. Currently arguing that IEEPA does *not* give president the authority to impose the 2025 tariffs: leading Supreme Court advocate Neal Katyal, incidentally my Yale Law School classmate & superstar of our Con Law class!

Graphic novels/manga imported to US are generally exempt from the IEEPA tariffs, but today's Supreme Court oral argument on the tarriffs' validity nonetheless has significant implications for the comics industry: apparel, collectibles, imported paper/ink for US-made books, etc.
