Banning the graphic novel of 1984 is a little on the nose, isn't it?

What books did Alberta schools *actually* pull off the shelves in response to a provincial order? It took a lot of work to find out. We still don't have a complete picture. And some schools are still pulling material.
Free speech advocates say it's ban unmatched in Canadian history. #AbLeg By me.
Why does he look horrified? ๐ฎ
Yikes. ๐ฌ
That's an amazing shot, like something Gushue would do in his prime.
holy shit
Do you think the other referees made fun of the guy who actually looked in the book to see if a dog could play basketball.
I tried his Amontillado once, and it was delicious.
I highly recommend making the trip into his cellar to try it!
I hope you're ok!

A picture of an Alberta independence referendum signature gathering location. There are blue Alberta flags flying in the wind and white, yellow, and red "Alberta Independence" signs. There are exactly two people there, one is sitting on a folding chair wearing a hi-vis vest and seems to be the canvasser. The other is standing and may be signing the petition. There is an empty camp chair by them. The caption reads: "The Tuesday Turnout The turnout is so massive they had to bring an extra chair just to hold the disappointment."
It's hilarious seeing all the pictures of the signature gathering for the Alberta independence referendum. They're all empty. It seems nobody is signing.
I've heard rumours they don't have enough signatures.
Iranian hackers threatening to hack into the top 3 credit bureaus and wiping Americans debtโฆ and I just wanna know who I gotta speak to in order to expedite this.
Workers in the US have more in common with workers in Iran than with their own billionaires and politicians.
I know Jacob! He's a great guy, love him.
Yep! It's called "universal design," and it's predicated on the idea that helping disabled people helps able bodied people too.
Thatโs why ALT is so great, it helps everyone!
I know a guy who got an F-150 Lightning and he told me he can charge it from empty to full for about $20.
That's easily $200 if it was a gas guzzler.
It's such an amazing movie. One of my faves.
It's genuinely insane that many of the newspaper columnists who cheered us into the war in Iraq are still employed at big legacy outlets cheering us into a new war with Iran.
โIt depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is."
The western states want to switch, but they need Congress to approve that, which is a shitshow.
It's a provincial responsibility, which is why BC decided to do it on its own.
"smartphones are killing education"
education has been intentionally strangled by the us government for decades, no child left behind actively forced schools to teach only to the test and that means rote memorization, the WORST way to learn ever devized
this is the system working as intended
I thought that was half the point.
Quote from Washington Times editorial board "[Radical liberals] don't realize that, when they express contempt for the man who holds the country's highest office, they reveal their contempt for the Americans who put him there."
Uh no...we definitely realize it.
Wow, it's rare that I get to witness a brutal murder.
Every progressive over ~30 is dealing with massive, MASSIVE Iraq and Afghanistan (imperialistic) (invasions) War gaslighting and fatigue right now... along with the horror of yet more blood on our hands.
Some of us were always against this shit. Some of us protested it. And... here we go again. ๐คฌ
