Sorry folks, but Kendzior contributes nothing useful to the discourse. Her getting suspended for a Johnny Cash joke is BS. However, you should also unfollow her and your life will be improved.

The fact that Kendzior is winking at the idea that there's a conspiracy against her is exactly why I stopped following her years ago.

Also, calling this a violation of her free speech... loser behaviour, but also inexcusable given the past year being a PhD-level lesson in actual 1A violations.

👀 Responding to a poll is not actually doing civil disobedience, but it's a start.
Alberta - Support for a general strike in response to the government's actions during the teachers strike:

Support: 51%
Oppose: 31%

Neutral: 13%

Following up on this, Mamdani and the rest of the results of the elections in the States this week was what I hoped for. Now for them to live up to the dream. And for midterms to go just as well.
I'm done with expressions like "creeping fascism." The USA is just run by a fascist government now. I only hope they've misjudged by going so far while still having some semblance of democracy left.

Oh, piss off! This is everything I hate about nerd culture right now, and King in particular.
You need to watch this iconic Stephen King movie before It: Welcome to Derry’s next episode
As HBO's It prequel the show continues, Welcome to Derry is weaving in another King classic that’s worth revisiting as the series continues.

Epic speech by @naheednenshi.bsky.social in the Alberta legislature just now! He spoke for the entire hour allowed for debate on the 2nd reading of Bill 2. The UCP are engaged in one of the most undemocratic actions in Canadian history, but at least they're being made to wear it.

Where's the premier while MLAs rush through an all-night debate on stripping Albertans of their Charter rights?

An airport lounge, waiting for a flight to Saudi Arabia. She didn't even bother to show up for the vote.

I remember when conservatives turfed premiers for this level of hubris.

The first bill of the fall session isn't the legislation to break the teachers' strike, but the "International Agreements Act," which the UCP claims is an assertion of Albertan sovereignty.
Protecting provincial jurisdiction
Bill 1 would help assert Alberta’s provincial priorities and safeguard our constitutional jurisdiction in international agreements signed by the federal government.

Alberta's Premier has revealed plans to use the Notwithstanding Clause to pass laws that silence the courts and strip away rights. It’s the first time in Alberta’s history a Premier would override the Charter this way.

Your right to speak, to worship, to live free — all protected by the Charter. But the Notwithstanding Clause is now being used in Alberta to make illegal laws “legal.”

This is a test of how far the government can go before Albertans push back.
