Really interesting take on geothermal - since they use some of the same equipment as oil and gas, they offer an alternative revenue source to smooth price-driven volatility in the oilfield services sector.

I get that the partisan fight is exciting, and important to people for good reasons. But Canada also has governance problems that need fixing, whoever wins, so I wrote two long essays about those. First part: paulwells.substack.com/p/what-an-el...

Nobody wants to believe that the problem with bail is a provincial issue (underfunding, primarily), because everyone is absolutely allergic to holding premiers to account in this country.

It’s amazing that things like cutting FDA funding are never framed as, “I think private companies should be able to profit from having you literally eat shit and you shouldn’t be able to do anything about it”

Kidnapping. Capturing a person against their will without due process is called kidnapping. Transporting them to another country without due process is called human trafficking. A squalid extrajudicial prison for people found guilty of no crime is called a concentration camp.

Ooof. @inklesspw.bsky.social is taking no prisoners. (And he's 100 percent correct about this). paulwells.substack.com/p/what-an-el...

markets soar as investors realize that mommy didn't actually disappear, she was just hiding behind her hands

Women should not be shaving their armpits. The armpit is a no man’s land where God forgot to design anything and then covered it with hair so we wouldn’t notice. Your armpits embarrass God.

Was a bit disappointed to see the ol’ Liberal stump speech style from @mark-carney.bsky.social this week — beware typical comms advice; the electorate is desperate for authenticity

I am *begging* Americans to watch news coverage from countries outside your own

Incredibly moving. 1000s of Lithuanians lined the streets of the capital Vilnius yesterday to honor the four US soldiers killed on their soil. As their bodies are repatriated to the US, their President will be nowhere to be seen, except on a Florida golf course. (📸 Gedinimas Varvuolis)

Take care of your neighbors and friends, you're going to need community more than ever.

March Madness time! For me that means I'm doing a blow out sale of old originals. First Time Ever! Savings up to 40% on selected originals for the month of March. earthskyart.ca/product-cate... #art #painting #bsnm

Loool this is what oppo drops look like when the closet is clean

I know I have bias, but Poilievre is nowhere near the same level as Carney re: economic issues, to the point that I’m having trouble imagining a fair debate. How does the guy even prepare??

Private surgical facilities in Alberta are starving the public system of staff and funding to perform priority procedures, according to a new report that concludes the province has yet to increase surgical capacity or reduce wait times as pledged. #ableg www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

This is an outstanding article by @zoeyunker.bsky.social for @thetyee.ca, documenting how higher fossil fuel prices were the leading cause of post-COVID inflation & hence Canadians' affordability concerns: thetyee.ca/News/2025/03.... Costs of the 2022 oil shock=$12000 per household over 3yrs. /2

He doesn’t even understand what a group text is ffs

Trump guys are like DEI is ruining our merit based society, now if you have any questions on the secret military base where the aliens are the email is sexbucket69@hotmail

Some breaking news in my latest. Others pointed out that Witkoff appeared to be in Moscow when he joined the Houthi PC Group chat. Sky News has a detailed story on his timeline in Moscow. I ran that against the timeline from the Atlantic article. Witkoff was waiting for Putin when he was added.(1/2)

Poilievre’s reasoning is such a weasel excuse — he should WANT to keep national security items quiet because it’s in the best interest of Canada. Country before self is the bare minimum here. #cdnpoli

Are we just going to sleep on the fact that Witkoff was at the Kremlin while the Signal chat was popping off?

Aside from the whole issue at hand, Hegseths manner of speaking while angry makes me very uncomfortable and I hope his wife and children are safe.

This is the kind of energy we all need to get us through 2025

Trump spends 90 minutes on a call with Putin and follows it up by coincidentally endorsing the Liberals and disparaging Poilievre? Yeah, okay.

It’s so important that people stop calling these deportations. This is -> HUMAN TRAFFICKING <- They are sending Venezuelan men to a concentration camp in El Salvador without due process because of nothing more than a rose tattoo.

When I was a kid senators would celebrate the Ides of March by murdering a tyrant and then leading one side in a civil war. Nowadays, it's all about the continuing resolutions.
