Fox News: Texas crackdown on drag performances with minors present reaches Gov. Abbott's desk
Texas lawmakers approved a bill aimed at restricting sexually-charged performances in places accessible to minors. The bill originally targeted drag shows, with drag artists fearing it would be used to criminalize their shows, but was changed to broaden the scope of what would be illegal. It would ban real or simulated groping, arousal and the display of a sex toy if done in front of a minor or on public property. Violators could face up to a year in jail, and businesses hosting performances deemed illegal could be fined $10,000 for each violation. Supporters argue it's needed to protect children from seeing sexually explicit content, while critics worry it could ensnare suggestive performances at rock concerts, professional sports cheerleading squads, or even behavior in private homes.
In the latest effort by conservative states to crack down on LGBTQ rights, Texas lawmakers have passed a bill aimed at restricting sexually-charged performances in places accessible to minors, which was originally targeted at drag shows. The bill broadens what would be illegal and would ban certain sexual conduct, with violators facing jail time. Supporters argue it's to protect children from seeing sexually explicit content, while critics call it too vague and worry that it could ensnare various suggestive performances or behavior in private homes. The bill now awaits the signature of Republican Governor Greg Abbott, who is expected to sign it into law. Florida recently passed similar restrictions on drag shows.

The Epoch Times: Heavy Clashes in Sudan's Capital as Truce Set to Expire
Heavy fighting continues in parts of Sudan's capital with only hours to go until the expiry of a ceasefire deal, which has brought some respite from the six-week-old conflict which has seen hundreds killed and almost 1.4 million people driven from their homes. The army and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have been locked in a power struggle, and both sides are considering extending the ceasefire.

Over 700 people have died across the country as a result of the fighting, with factories, offices, homes, and banks looted or destroyed.

Gataway Couple: What Does It Mean When Your RV Has 'Hot Skin'?
RV hot skin is a dangerous electrical condition occurring when an RV becomes electrified due to faulty wiring or other issues. It means that the metal frame or body of the RV has become energized with electricity, creating a safety hazard, especially when entering and leaving the camper. Faulty wiring, electrical faults, and short circuits are the main causes of hot skin in an RV, and a damaged electrical cord can also be a factor. It's important to test for hot skin regularly, turn off all electrical devices, and use a non-contact voltage tester to detect electrical fields.

Gataway Couple: How We Replaced Our RV Kitchen Sink
RVers often replace their standard RV kitchen sinks with residential ones or high-rise faucets for better functionality and style. Upgrading an RV kitchen sink is easy, and most are drop-in or over-mounted. Before replacing the sink, determine what kind of sink is in place, how it’s plumbed, and its size. There is no standard RV kitchen sink size, so measurements are necessary. The most common reason for an RV kitchen sink replacement is poor functionality or cracked sinks. The material choices include plastic, acrylic, solid surface, and stainless steel.
