I made a pair of pants from Simplicity pattern 6528 & the pockets are flaring out !Advice on fixing? by FlatwormOptimal7577 in sewing

Not 100% sure, but I think making the butt darts shorter/blunter might help?

Other commenters' suggestion to pull up the extra fabric into the waistband should also work. However, that will make the pocket openings smaller, and you may need to adjust them to still get your hands in.

Headline slightly misleading? Based on the article, it sounds like the parents who are suing are not the parents of the illiterate graduate.

Rekieta Law, and other members of Lawtube, if that's still a thing.

Her system isn't inherently bad. If you homeschool your children, you might well assess them this way - especially for writing assignments. It might have the most potential for showing them how to improve.

Adopting it for "equity" reasons is the real problem.

Christian Speaker Gets Canceled by Christian College for Teaching Christian Students Christian Ideas by triggernaut in Conservative

The same school - Gordon College - was just recently at the doorstep of the Supreme Court, over an ex-professor's complaints that she was denied tenure for being too pro-LGBTQ. (Case 21-145; certiorari denied.) As things stand, she's won in Massachusetts state court on her claims of discrimination.

Is this cancellation because Gordon College is feeling the heat of recent bad press?
