For years now, LGBT activists and their allies have been pushing out children's books that confuse and sexualize children by teaching them that "love makes a family" and that children can choose whatever "gender identity" they wish – discarding their male or female bodily sex.

Now, a children's book, Elephants are Not Birds, by conservative activist Ashley St. Clair, is countering that trend. From the new, conservative publishing house Brave Books, the picture book features a singing elephant named Kevin and a vulture named Culture, who tries to convince Kevin that with a few cosmetic changes – some feathers and a paper beak – he can be a bird, too.

Of course, that plan flops, as does Kevin, who finally appreciates that elephants and birds are different – and that's a good thing. St. Clair told The Daily Mail that Kevin "realizes he's better the way he was made and he can like to sing and still be an elephant."

The former president of Planned Parenthood, Dr. Leana Wen, has released a new memoir entitled "Lifelines: A Doctor's Journey in the Fight for Public Health." While Dr. Wen shares more about her personal story, she also provides insight into what it was like to work for Planned Parenthood and its obsession with abortion.

In 2018, Dr. Leana Wen took over for Cecile Richards as the head of Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion business. However, Wen quickly rankled feathers as she wanted the organization to do something it hasn't done in years, focus on providing health care to low-income communities.

As it turned out, the board and many employees weren't interested in trying to help people achieve better health.

Data collected by researchers from the University of California , San Francisco shows that the lonelier older adults are, the more likely they will use prescription painkillers, anti-anxiety drugs and powerful opioids.

The study surveyed six thousand seniors who lived independently, with 53% considering themselves not lonely, 40% were moderately lonely and 7% were highly lonely. The researchers noticed a positive correlation between the level of loneliness and the use of prescription drugs such as Valium, Xanax, BuSpar and Ambien.

"Loneliness was associated with higher pain medication use, including use of opioids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and more than twice the frequency of use of antidepressants, sleep medications, and benzodiazepines," the study explained.
