          They want objectionable Shel Silverstein? Because that can be arranged.

          (I don’t want them banning Shel Silverstein or anyone else, I just think it’s funny that they want to ban the only non-dirty stuff he ever did.)

          Shel was a known cannabis user and a bit of a hippie. That’s probably why.

          Fun fact, he also wrote the Johnny Cash song, “a Boy Named Sue”

          The theater adaptation of Where the Sidewalk Ends was one of our middle school plays at our decidedly “rural” school.

          One mom had a problem with it, and it was only with the “rebellious” bits. She shut up when every other parent rolled their eyes at her. It’s crazy how attitudes shift.

      Man, that form doesn’t verify any contact information. It sure would be easy to flood it with genuine concern in picture format.

      Use tor before they start filtering it. That’s usually what they block first. Submit from multiple IPs to make it harder to filter. Be realistic - there are websites that’ll help you generate fake names, addresses. You can even use ChatGPT to write time wasting comments. Try to avoid using real people’s names so you don’t get innocents harassed.
