1 - Tenure just got thrown out.
To implement these reforms, the superintendent is requiring every employee in the 29 schools, from the janitor to the principal, to reapply for their job.
2 - No libraries.
Miles has said that librarians will likely be eliminated—because, in his view, their job consists only of “checking out books,”

@spriteblood On my desktop running kbin in a browser, there is a OldGreyTroll -> Settings -> Appearance option to pick what your homepage defaults to. And ./sub is one of them. YMMV.
At this point I am going into Reddit to figure out which of my subscriptions I want to find a different way to access. So either I am finding a similar magazine in kbin or I'm moving the source to my RSS aggregator (Feedly).
Interestingly, as I bounce in to do a look/see, I'm seeing a whole lot less interesting content. So the moderator "revolt" is having a big effect for me.
Using Firefox on a Windows 11 box in kbin.social: Next to my username is a bulleted list icon. Hovering on that pulls up a list:

Selecting Subscribed brings me to //kbin.social/sub. This seems to be what you want.

The whole point of swearing on the bible was to get God to be involved in enforcing the oath. So your disbelief may negate this aspect. On the gripping hand, you also swear in front of a government representative to get the gubmint involved in enforcing the oath. And if it is in their interest to enforce the oath; they will. With guns if necessary.
