Really lovely thread 🧵

Layoffs are reaching their highest levels since the pandemic, but America's corporate elite have never been doing better. Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?

calgaryherald.com/op... Everybody should read this. The PREMEPTIVE use of the NWC is not what it was designed for, and it will have negative ramifications on ALL ABs/Canadians. You can be in favour of getting kids back to school, but this isn't the way...

Graph from a recent paper on widespread & intense surface air temperature is scary for many reasons including fire. Higher temperatures & more extreme heat will lead to more intense fires in many parts of the world largely due to drier fuels driven by increased vpd. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

PS he's 78. Got his scholarship to Oxford a few years back in open competition against >50 other applicants. Recruited ballet dancers from around the world. Wrote a thesis that's going to improve how clinicians care for injured dancers. A privilege to work in a job where I meet people this good.

Angry yet, Alberta? You should be.

Geezus, really something to make me feel bad for fans of the winning team

Ruh-Roh, Donny. You've woken the giant. Obama taking no prisoners....

Get moving you lucky Edmontonians! The hunt is on.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov assault charges coming or what.

I will be posting this until the USA government gets their shit together. Please share this.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

“Alberta’s use of the notwithstanding clause continues an alarming trend of provincial governments putting political expediency ahead of people’s human rights.” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #abed amnesty.ca/press-releas...

Ladies and gentlemen boys and girls!!!! We’ve got us some new electoral maps! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli www.assembly.ab.ca/docs/default...

You know it’s really bad when @amnesty.org speaks up. The UCP should be very ashamed of what they just did. May you all get the karma you deserve. I wish you all the worst.

Mickey Amery... Calling the use of the Notwithstanding clause a "moral imperative"... That's a hell of a way to define a legacy and not at all foreboding rhetoric. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Unreal. So despicable. #firetheUCP #abed #ableg

1/4 Notwithstanding Clause. The Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms sets out those rights & freedoms that Canadians believe are necessary in a free & democratic society. The right to strike is considered an "indispensable component" of the freedom of association under Section 2(d) of the Charter.

Danielle Smith is on her way to Saudi Arabia. She was not in the Legislature. She won’t be back until November. Danielle Smith is a coward

Fuck you all the way to Hell Danielle Smith, and Adriana LaGrange. The deaths of those that can't afford this are on your hands. #UCPDeathCult

Something I never would have predicted. I am a cynic but many tell me they are equally mystified.

A new #ScienceSignaling study identifies a molecular pathway that enables #BreastCancer tumors to metastasize and evade immunotherapies and hints that PARP1 inhibitors could be repurposed to improve clinical outcomes. https://scim.ag/4nknihz

SO MANY CLOSURES. We all just expect the ER to be open when we see that green H sign on the highway ... well, you can't count on that anymore. Check first before you hit the road - and if you're having a baby make sure you have plans for how to get to the city. www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/e...

COVID vaccines available in AB (though many barriers, sigh). Remember, large body of evidence: safe & effective. For example, recent study involving approx 1 million adults: "NO increased risk of 29 adverse events was observed after vaccination..." jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...
