Anyways, there will be more full-some infographic-style data articles exploring the many fun and wild claims the Separatist movement claims will happen in the coming days. Stay tuned for the official launch and release!

In real terms, a $53.2bn loss of op revenue from our current Provincial status to when we would be a "Country" is equivalent to our entire healthcare system... twice over. To match total revenue, proposed tax structures require us to nearly quadruple O&G Production overnight.

A little shameless soft-launch I've been working on a little hobby project over the break around the realities of Alberta Separation. Assuming the current state tax replication with @ABProsperity promise to end income tax, the budgetary impact would be $53.2bn or 72.4% loss.

took a rare r&r day from the neverending to-do lists of doom, and worked on a little personal project... and I think slowly (...and finally) I'm getting the hang of digi painting from procreate. Still super foundational, but it looks proper for once with these new mechanics 😂

Do you still follow Audi fairly closely, pal? We rented a Q4 this summer on a trip and fell in love with the model and then we found out they make an EV version, and the Mrs has ideas about her next vehicle 😂

I think you and I originally met on the ole The Facebook my pal! But same difference. Only reason that makes me think this is I just lurked largely on twitter until the combined pandemic boredom and Facebook falling to the boomers 😂

The trend of humanizing our pets has intensified in recent years, with pet ownership shifting into pet parenthood. Writer @joshgreenblatt.bsky.social (who, for the record, loves dogs), doesn’t mince words: “Dog parents have lost their goddamned minds.” thewalrus.ca/why-were-treatin...

On the left: an image of a woman holding the paws of a black and white dog on a light blue background. On the right: text that reads “Why we’re treating dogs like people and people like dogs. In an age of shrinking community, the pet has become our friend, therapist, and emotional crutch.”
