If you remember this, you're old.

if you don't: Goosebumps creator R.L. "Jovial Bob" Stine had a regular gig producing Scholastic Books' magazine of the late 1970s to early 1980s, Dynamite, targetted to 4th-8th graders. (In high school you graduated to Bananas.)

Was curious about what Hux said yesterday about Snoke. About him (Snoke, not Hux) being a clone, I mean. So I asked about it.

Hux said, "I'm not sure he was actually cloned from an existing person, but I'm sure he wasn't a naturally-born being. I mean, have you ever seen a race that looked like him? He was huge and weird!"

First of all, rude. Snoke was beautiful, if you really knew him. You can't always judge a book by its cover. And I just assumed he was so big because he was so full of ~*love*~. Like Cli'fford the Large Red Hound of Scholastica 7.

...but as it turns out, it's a scam, because she's connected with a children's book publishing company that is a rival to Scholastic.

From the article:

"On November 14, a 20-year-old woman named Lanah Burkhardt appeared before the school board of the Conroe Independent School District in Texas. Burkhardt told the board that, when she was 11, she read a Scholastic book that introduced her to 'a single kiss.' According to Burkhardt, her exposure to this Scholastic book was directly responsible for her developing a debilitating addiction to pornography. 

"...Burkhardt cited her story as a reason to restrict access to Drama, a novel published by Scholastic. The book includes this image of two people kissing: 

"But Burkhardt went further, arguing that Conroe should remove all Scholastic books from schools and stop hosting Scholastic book fairs. These steps were necessary, Burkhardt argued, to protect children from "sexual obscenity." According to Burkhardt, 'getting rid of Scholastic books and their book fairs will inevitably protect kids.' 

"Burkhardt's appearance was promoted by SkyTree Book Fairs, a newly formed organization marketing itself as 'an alternative to the sexually explicit content distributed in Scholastic's book fairs.'

"While SkyTree Book Fairs presents itself as an independent non-profit organization, it appears to be a hastily assembled offshoot of Brave Books, which publishes children's books by right-wing pundits and pseudo-celebrities. The link between SkyTree Book Fairs and Brave Books was first reported by Book Riot.

"Neither Brave Books nor Burkhardt disclosed that Burkhardt is an employee of Brave Books. According to her LinkedIn profile, Burkhardt is the company's 'public relations coordinator.'"

For any "gifted" children-turned-adults who agree that the Scholastic Book Fair was the best week of the school year, I just found out you can order from them directly. Excuse me while I go relive my childhood.
