Thomas Andre/Lennart Niermann Au where Thomas met Lennart when he was young and still living in Europe with his parents and then they migrated to the US and Thomas who had been comfortable at one point then felt excluded in everything, got bullied, shit went down all through out highschool to the point where he became a ganster and in his last year he met Lennart again, the new foreing student in his class.
Thomas does remember some faint memories but Lennart is pure blank, black space completely because Thomas looks NOTHING like when they first met. And Lennart still has a cute pouty mouth and the german accent is giving him off a lot, he tends to have the same eating and homework habits as he did when they were young, were it not for puberty hitting him like a truck he would have been theliteral same child as before.

I'm reading reviews of that graphic novel, wondering if anyone else has noticed how no one in this book interacts like an ordinary human (very few readers apparently have!), and somebody was actually calling for book-banning, saying TSG "shouldn't really be in modern school libraries" due to its problematic elements, and I just...................
Yes, the problematic elements exist, but a) a book written in 1911 is not going to have the worldview of one written today and it is unreasonable to expect it to, b) the problematic elements are an opportunity for discussion and learning (e.g. this is how many of a certain type of people thought back then, and here's why we understand now that that's wrong), c) we need to be honest and open about problems of the past so that we can learn from them, rather than trying to sweep them under the rug to make ourselves look and feel better, d) some problematic elements do not necessarily mean that there is nothing else of worth in the story, e) if you only read material that is perfectly sanitized with nothing "problematic" in it, you're not going to read much and you're not going to learn how to interact with anything you might not agree with, f) how is this really any different from calling for book-banning for other reasons, and g) you can always choose not to read something that you find offensive if you don't want to but you don't get to make that call for other people.

did anyone else know a kid in their class who would store things in those ceiling panels? y'know the ones that you can push up with a broom?
during every lunch when the teacher left he would stand on his desk and fish out a lunch box and water bottle along with whatever snack wasn't allowed in class, like a ring pop or something. One day the teacher came back earlier than expected and caught him so he made him take everything out.
Kevin takes out 3 water bottles, a lunch box, a comic book, and three textbooks/workbooks and I think a sweater. Now everytime i see those ceiling panels i think of who could be using it as a secret storage space
