They’re building their own power plant. It won’t connect to the grid.

If the tech - a closed loop system - lives up to its promise, then not a lot.

Not sure how I feel about it. The tattoo would send me flying.

Hahaha.

Alberta, once a hotspot for renewable energy projects, sees investment 'plummet’ | The Narwhal Corporate investment fell 99% after Alberta’s pause on new renewable energy development, as the industry faces ongoing policy uncertainty

Alberta, once a hotspot for renewable energy projects, sees investment 'plummet’ | The Narwhal Corporate investment fell 99% after Alberta’s pause on new renewable energy development, as the industry faces ongoing policy uncertainty

Alberta led the country in renewable growth — by A LOT — for years. Now investment has collapsed in the wake of provincial government actions. 2025 saw no new wind projects and very little solar. Corporate agreements, which funded 60% of projects, are down 99%. #ableg

Well that’s a lovely thing to hear. I don’t believe it, but it’s still lovely.

The Alberta government destroyed freedom of information in the province when it rewrote legislation, so I'm picking up new skills they won't like 😈 I really don't like taking no for an answer.

I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started. Journalism in the second Trump administration gets personal.

Books about “Asian wife sharing.” Detailed descriptions of orgies. Scenes involving “ladyboys.”

That’s what @dfriedman.bsky.social discovered on a Goodreads page tied to the email address of a top Pentagon official and mentor to Pete Hegseth.

What came next was even wilder.
