Severe solar storms could hit Earth, space forecasters say. Here's how to see auroras
The vibrant displays could be visible across much of the northern U.S., and as far south as Alabama and Northern California.
Tomorrow's space weather experience could be ~exciting~ if it causes high geomagnetic induced currents in the power grid.
"When fast-moving particles and plasma slam into Earthโs magnetic field, they can temporarily disrupt the power grid."

What to do about someone who defrauds women and says he canโt stop doing that? Even when out of jail and supposedly monitored he did that. And he is very likely to become seriously violent against women too. A very tricky situation.

Jeff Kent is a serial conman who defrauds women. Does he deserve the harshest punishment in Canadian criminal law?
Jeff Kent is a romance fraudster who bilks women out of their life savings. An Alberta judge just deemed him a dangerous offender.
My latest long read: Jeff Kent is a serial conman who bilks vulnerable women out of their money. Heโs the first fraudster in Canadian history to be deemed a dangerous offender and locked up indefinitely.
Heโs also someone who used to regularly call me from jail

BREAKING: Alberta Becomes First Province in Canadian History to Use Notwithstanding Clause to Crush Strike Rights
In an unprecedented move, the United Conservative Party (UCP) government under Premier Danielle Smith has announced that it will invoke the notwithstanding clause to force 51,000 striking teachers bac...
The #UCP sets another precedent. They invoked the notwithstanding clause, forcing 51,000 #StrikingTeachers back to work. They also shut down most debate on the bill.
This suspends the teachersโ #Charter right to strikeโa direct attack on democracy & on workers.

๐ Taken from the page of a heartbroken Alberta teacherโฆ
Thereโs so much misinformation right now โ and it hurts to see teachers being torn apart in ads paid for with our own tax dollars.
Hereโs what I see really happening ๐
We were offered a bad contract. We voted NO.
The same offer came back (plus a โfree COVID vaccineโ). We voted NO again โ 90% of us.
We gave the government lots of time to come back with something better. They didnโt.
When the strike began, they refused to meet for six days.
When they finally did, we brought a fair proposal โ they offered nothing back.
Teachers had nothing to vote on.
They told us to โgo back to workโ (after locking us out).
They still refuse to talk about the two biggest issues:
๐ Class size caps
๐ Classroom complexity
๐ Letโs fact check Dani:
Statement: โThe ATA rejected their offer.โ
โ FALSE โ The government didnโt put an offer forward.
Statement: โThe ATA hasnโt sent an offer.โ
โ FALSE โ The ATA has sent many offers โ all rejected outright. TEBA has not put forward a single counteroffer.
Statement: โThe ATA needs to come back to the table.โ
โ FALSE โ The ATA has been at the table. The government/TEBA is stalling. They spent over a week โreviewingโ the last proposal and still didnโt respond with anything.
I know everyone โ myself included โ wants nothing more than to be back in the classroom.
Many have said their childโs learning is being deeply impacted by missing these days of instruction. I understand that.
But the truth is, the learning environment the Alberta government has created in classrooms impacts childrenโs education every single day of the school year.
If these days of disruption can help correct the conditions our students are learning in, the learning gains ahead will be exponential โ for months and years to come.
Something has to change.
Weโre fighting for kids, schools, and the future of public education in Alberta.
Before you outright believe the ads โ ask a teacher.
Weโre not the enemy.
The ATA has presented many offers, while TEBA has not made a single counter-offer. The government refuses to address class size caps at the bargaining table, the major point of the negotiation. They instead threaten to legislate teachers back to work and strip them of their charter rights.

No Albertan 'will ever have to pay': Smith in wake of controversies promises UCP health guarantee
The premier said the Public Health Guarantee is a promise to Albertans that the UCP is committed to Albertaโs public health-care system.
Danielle Smith is a liar:
โThe UCP is committed, to all Albertans, that under no circumstances will any Albertan ever have to pay out of pocket for access to their family doctor or to get the medical treatment that they need,โ said Smith. [2023]
