Snowing pretty good in Anchortown.

I had a fairly decent Fantasy Football season. Which is rare. I’m not a genius when it comes to this stuff, and I’m a huge homer.
How’d you guys make out?

In some ways, this place is like High School. Not in the "Varsity Team Captain just won the championship" kind of way... More like the "weird cliques, people starting needless drama, and supposed friends talking shit behind your back" kind of way.
Not all of you. Some of you are genuinely cool.

I’ve run across pieces of this canoe a few times over the last few winters.
I’ve love to hear its story.

When I sent my kids overseas, I told them to be humble, respectful, be the kind of guests you’d want in your house. Observe and take in other cultures… don’t assume we do everything perfectly. Be curious. Learn.
Trump and his legion of cultists are none of that.

Trump is the U.S. inside out. All of the hidden ugliness and secrets inverted to a proud boast.
He's our deepest shame, with overt pride. Our ugliness, paraded and applauded.
He's the Hyde of the American psyche - exposed and normalized.
He's deeply American. And America is deeply Trumpian. 🧵

When a leader is drowning in credible allegations at home, foreign “crises” have a long history of showing up right on time.
Suddenly there’s a war you’re supposed to clap for.
Quick, everyone look! Smoke grenades and fast rope insertions.

No.
Even in 05 when Iraq turned into a grinding insurgency and the Army missed its recruiting goal by 7k, we didn’t institute a draft.
There’s plenty of shit to be freaked out about, no need to make up more.

A dog doesn’t ask you to be charming.
Or successful.
Or healed.
Or easier than you are.
They ask you to show up.
They read consistency, they don’t give a shit about performance.
That’s not lesser love.
That’s foundational love.
Hard pressed to find a fraction of that from bipeds.

As I was scrolling, this caught my eye and I thought for a split second, "Oh look, a Great Pyrenees T-Shirt."
I recently picked up this official Binky Fan Club T-shirt, from the 1994 incident where the Alaska Zoo polar bear ripped a shoe off a stupid tourist. A pop-up exhibit of Anchorage/Alaska T-shirt history is one of my dream projects, and it's becoming more and more possible.

I’m 5’8” and not of hulking stature… I find it humorous that there are men in a country dominated by self-anointed ‘Alpha’ status, that aren’t confident enough to stand in the body they already have.

…when I’m out there alone with this girl… none of this shit matters. The world is so fucking stupid. If we started acting like we might die tomorrow, (and news flash, ya might) we’d all be a lot nicer to each other.

There have been times when I question whether or not I actually have the ability to love deeply again.
As Tyler Childers so eloquently puts it.

And I fell a good long ways
