Death rattle!
The government chose not to prevent this crisis but actively chose to make it worse, resulting in the "gong show" in our hospitals. #ABleg #ABpoli #UCPCorruption
Little help:

Been told describing the state of our HC system (thanks to govt meddling and its chaos engine) as a gong show is a bit dated...

What do you prefer: gong show or dumpster fire?

What about shit storm? I know it lacks the gravitas of dumpster fire but it kinda equals gong show in jokeyness.

I zoomed in, added a bit of contrast, and went back and forth over the first few seconds to show how the ground around the vents bulges outward before the lava breaks through and blasts it apart. Remarkable stuff. Nature is neat. #Kilauea

Nenshi's UCP-Lite Energy Policies Not Nearly Good Enough

Opposition Leader isn't a hard job:
1) Criticize the @ABDanielleSmith
2) Propose better policies

Naheed Nenshi failed on both counts last week.

The FBI is offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the waxing gibbous moon. If convicted, moon faces a sentence of “fine shattering”, a process by which her gleaming brilliance will be pulverized and refined to make raw material for semiconductors.
