There were no screams
There was no time
The mountain called Monkey had spoken
Watched Crouching Tiger last night. What a movie that is.

We put down our cat Teo yesterday. He was 15 years old, and we’d had him for 10 of those years. He was such a beautiful cat, and I’m going to miss him. RIP Teotihuacan.

Why am I drawn to twitter even though I like the people on here lol

I’m so mad about everything right now it’s exhausting. Three weeks of striking and no gains. It’s goddamned infuriating

Insurance company just decided that they’re going to do a cash settlement for our siding instead of fixing it. The contractor says it’s unlikely the cash will be enough to actually pay for it. It’s so cool that the insurance company can just decide to rip us off!

The phrase nepo baby is gradually being stretched to encompass all children of wealthy people, and I think that’s funny.

Calgary mayor Jeromy Fartass. Who would have thought

Held my nose and voted in this fart of a municipal election. It’s a tough choice between the same old useless crap and a new, much more evil kind of crap.

Stuck in a nightmare with my insurance company. I can’t make any policy changes online anymore and every time I talk to them directly they tell me that’s normal. What do you mean that’s normal! No it isn’t!

Not interviewed by Judge Wyant in a report that’s supposed to probe political interference into AHS
-Health Minister Lagrange
-her chief of staff
-anyone on political side other than Marshall Smith, who left premier’s office last fall
The report commissioned by the Alberta government into allegations of corruption in the health system is out and everyone should read the caveats spelled out by the retired judge at the outset to understand what's in there, and more importantly, what's not. #ableg

If you’ve ever wondered what they’re doing at Alberta Next panels, they’re cutting mics and telling high school students their parents should beat them.

Yeah keep talking shit man see what happens
Alberta Finance Minister Nate Horner has issued a statement saying he’s disappointed in the result and questions if the ATA leaders know what teachers want.

ATA has said they took the latest offer to members b/c they couldn’t get traction at the bargaining table on class size/composition #AbLeg

Alberta teachers demand both bread and roses

No fear. Just like Tom Cruise.
Voting on the memorandum of agreement is now closed. Results will be available shortly.

Very sad that our older cat is unwell and in pain and this seems to be leading to increased conflict with the other cat. They seem to be fighting for real instead of for play. Poor animals.

No yeah I love my ELA class with 40 students and my film class with 38 students it’s great when you can hardly move in the classroom

Watching Flow and my cat hasn’t cried once. Cold as ice

Last night we saw a skunk dragging the body of a dead animal across our neighbor’s lawn. The body was somehow stuck in or tangled with a reusable bag. Turns out a little snowshoe hare died on the sidewalk, bled everywhere, and now the body’s gone. What the fuck man

Coming to the bargaining table with the same salary increase teachers already voted down was not in good faith, even if it came with a positive step forward in promising funds for hiring. They knew the union bargaining team wouldn’t agree to it. This is calculated

If your daughter wants to play junior or senior high sports in Alberta you now gotta sign a document confirming she’s cis to compete with girls. Parents can officially accuse your daughter of lying and she’ll be investigated.

Been watching the Child’s Plays, and man these movies are fun. I think I had only seen 1 and, weirdly, the very end of 2 (of the first trilogy). Chucky sure gets ugly in the third one.

I would like to know how the people who believe kids should have phones in the classroom think teachers should prevent cheating with LLMs, but I don’t want to talk to them to find out.

I can’t seem to find it, but this Northback YouTube ad about mining coal in Alberta has a map of the province that seems to have Lake Athabasca cut out. I don’t get it lol why did they change the border

Well that was a weird one. I think I liked it. Interesting imagery. Surprised at how much footage they use from A Nightmare on Elm Street.
