It’s clear that Premier Danielle Smith’s governing United Conservative Party is using a “flood the zone” strategy but there were many times when it looked like the government was just flying by the seat of its pants and no one was really in control of the political agenda.
Danielle Smith’s wild ride. What to make of Alberta politics in 2025?
It was one of the most chaotic and frantic years in recent memory

Last night at 2 a.m. Danielle Smith's Alberta government passed Bill 9, which invokes the Notwithstanding Clause to shield its three anti-trans laws from court challenge

We must not overcomplicate what is going on here.

The large moon jar I showed when still wet clay is fired and I couldn't be happier.

It's got a nice shino glaze and sifted wood ash over the shoulders that have produced green drips like you can get in a wood firing.

It's up on my Etsy now. Sadly I still can't sell to the US.

Danielle Smith's Alberta government has announced that they will use the Notwithstanding Clause to protect three laws (all targeting trans people) from court challenges.

NEW from me in @xtramagazine.com on the lies they're using to justify such a massive move ⬇️

The jokes about how the internet is "just for cat pictures" kinda bug me, because they trivialize this incredible technological achievement that has changed so many lives

Some of us are allergic to cats. Our parasocial relationships with your animals sustain us. We need your cat pictures. Send them

I really need to get to bed, but I just poked my head out the back door again. This is the view from my deck. All of this is looking south. When the geomagnetic storms are like this, the oval overshoots me and stretches into the US, which is why so many are seeing it tonight. #aurora

A rare interview with the creators of the always-funny, always-brilliant, and *usually*-sexy—or occasionally anti-sexy—OGLAF!

Cooper has kept a low profile over the years, but is legitimately one of the very best artists in comics today. Read OGLAF if you're old enough to drive!
Talking Oglaf with Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne: 'We'd stay up all night drawing stuff to make each other laugh' - The Comics Journal
Other than some time off every year for Christmas, Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne have delivered a new Oglaf comic, skewering fantasy tropes with absolutely not safe for work humor, every week since 2008...

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.
