@noiie #noiie2025 weaving our minds & hearts together to improve learning! Also weaving with our very own hands! What an invigorating symposium!

GenWell has connection campaigns to help people strengthen their well being through connecting with others.

Leona Prince reflects on Leadership as responsibility. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is knowledge in action.

Kat’il’a: a Lil’wat word that describes the act of seeking spaces of stillness and quietness amidst our busyness and quest for knowledge; advice to stop and listen deeply. Taught to the presenters by Dr. Lorna Williams.

A sample of the actual weaving participants did with yarn and a cardboard loom.

Tariffs on their own do not create more American jobs or lead to more US production. In fact, Trump's last trade war cost roughly 300,000 jobs. All these tariffs will do is give corporations cover to jack up prices and pad their profits at our expense.

Televangelist Pat Robertson once said "I think having a woman president would be a terrible mistake. Women are too emotional to handle high office." Strange how when men in office shout and berate others in a childish emotional outburst, it's praised by some as "boldly standing up for our country."

SO DONALD TRUMP HAS DECIDED TO ANNEX YOUR COUNTRY

Somewhere, around Christmas, it became clear that Donald Trump wasn’t entirely joking about wanting to annex Canada. Here's what we can do.

Grateful that the presenters emphasized the importance of not simply teaching discrete skills in isolation…no transfer! Context, great literature, poetry, close study of language in context!!

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income

This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.
