Rise of Alberta asked on X if the two provinces formed a country, what to call it, pulling in suggestions like 'Albechewan,' 'Saskalberta,' or a revival of the old 'Buffalo' idea from 1905. Alberta's bigger population sways some to stick with its name, while others dream up 'Western Republic' amid talks of oil wealth and federal gripes. This lighthearted buzz ties into the 'Stay Free Alberta' petition pushing for a separation referendum, though polls show only 29% support and leaders like Premier Danielle Smith keep their distance.

Key Takeaway

Imagine Alberta and Saskatchewan teaming up as a new country—what's the perfect name? A post from late February 28 kicked off hundreds of creative replies blending laughs with real prairie frustrations.

PC Gamer Editor-in-Chief Tyler Wilde argued that Wildlight Entertainment's free-to-play PvP shooter Highguard didn't flop, comparing its sharp drop from a 97,249 peak to typical FPS fades like FragPunk. The studio laid off most of its team two weeks after the January 26 launch due to a troubled rollout with PC issues, netcode problems, and empty maps, leaving a core group for support. Steam reviews sit at 55% negative from 38,000 ratings, yet Wildlight leaders emphasized building a passionate community over massive numbers. X responses included memes, jabs at 'game journalist cope,' and a Community Note bluntly stating 'Highguard flopped,' linking to layoff reports.

Key Takeaway

Highguard launched with 97,000 players on day one, but numbers crashed to under 2,000 as layoffs hit the studio. PC Gamer called it normal for shooters—X users and a sharp Community Note disagreed.

Alex, a Haitian-New Yorker, shared the encounter on February 22, questioning if the man's grandparents owned plantations and slaves—prompting quick corrections that slavery ended in Cuba in 1886. Replies poured in defending exiles as fleeing communist takeovers, not slave-owning, while others praised the revolution for land reforms, literacy jumps from 76% to near 100%, and health improvements like infant mortality dropping from 37 to 4 per 1,000 births.
