Nate Horner's big deficit budget Another year, another Alberta budget at the whim of oil and gas royalties

πŸ€ πŸ’ΈThere’s a baked-in analysis in every Alberta provincial budget that is impossible to ignore: Alberta relies too much on revenues from oil and gas royalties to fund the daily operations of government.

Conservatives built the Alberta separatist movement. Now they have to break it Former Alberta premier Jason Kenney spent years whipping voters into a frenzy against Ottawa. Now, at least, he's doing something to put out the fire he helped start. Will any of his Conservative coll...

I can't give Jason Kenney any credit for opposing these separatists now that he's out of politics when he has taken no responsibility for inviting them into the tent of his "united" party after they were marginalized for decades precisely because they were hotbeds of white/Christian nationalism.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I feel bad for all of us who have to be good at our jobs when the answer is to be sufficiently white, rich and powerful and then you can just drool on yourself and the press will be like β€œaudiences intrigued by his unusual communication style”

To an extent I appreciate the need to take the Alberta Independence movement seriously but the irony of trying to host your separatist event at β€œCanadian” Brewhouse to be told to leave and then pivoting to β€œSwamp Donkey” needs to be highlighted.

Guillermo del Toro: Saying β€˜Art Is Not Important’ Is β€˜Always the Prelude to Fascism’ Guillermo del Toro says claiming that 'art is not important' is a 'prelude to fascism.'

β€œBe kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. β€œAt a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”
