It makes me laugh that they frame this as what will make teachers happy. Not what works for the kids or education. Teachers are not your adversary.
Don't worry about appeasing teachers. Just support public education. It's not hard.

Alberta Finance Minister Nate Horner says the ATA's latest proposal to employers included class-size caps and would cost $2 billion more than the province is willing to spend over 4 years. He asked teachers for an offer more "rooted in reality." #AbLeg #AbEd

Coal is back baby!

New coal leases in the Powder River Basin have been paused after the first one had only a bid for 1/10th of a penny. They are trying to blame previous administrations, but the writing is on the wall. We should be supporting coal workers and communities not doing wtf this clown show is doing.

ICE arrested comedian Robby Roadsteamer for singing a parody of Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy” in a Jeffrey Epstein the Giraffe costume outside their facility.

He sings “If you hate brown people / and you are a Nazi” and ICE thugs grab him and drag him into detention. No violence—just speech.

Currently on a flight to Japan watching a Pentagon Assistant Press Secretary (Riley Podleski) work on a document in the open on her laptop. She spent the last hour copy and pasting headlines from articles critical of the Administration’s hostility toward the 1st amendment.

Dr. Phil not being able to make money off MAGA is hilarious. Jack Posobiec got a beach house off it and his job was testing pee for the Navy. How are you that bad at this man?

I definitely think that springing him and Oz on the world definitely erased any goodwill she got from free cars and book recommendations.
Oh, and the time she almost got Tom Cruise to admit that he's gay

Won't say his name but dude got off easy. Every one of these fascist grifters should be forced to live out their lives in misery. Crippled lawsuits and financial burden so great their kids will want to be stricken from their wills. A life so miserable that political assassination is an act of mercy

Dr. Phil went full MAGA and tried to reinvent himself as a MAGA media mogul and culture warrior. Now his world is unraveling, his media company is laying off thousands and had to file for bankruptcy, and he's being sued for fraud. The whole plan is collapsing.

He thinks there are levers that we can pull that turns industry on and off. Need more softwood lumber? Open the forests valve! Cooking oil? Flush the crisco pipes! I wish my brain worked this way. The world would be a lot simpler.
