@moda health. Can you please send that form to my new address. Also, why can’t this form be signed digitally? Also why can’t I change my address online and are required to have my employer do it? Your system is too difficult to deal with as a person under your coverage.

Sunday afternoon was not the best upper air observation cycle for Alaska. "X" are places that would normally have had weather balloon launches three months ago. #akwx #weather #NOAA @climatologist49.bsky.social @coweatherman.bsky.social @brunota2003.bsky.social

I want to have a fun guessing game but I want to put some money to it so you get a little more than bragging rights. This wonderful poster is by Justin Ritter

In short, it's $5 per guess. DM me your guess and I'll send you my venmo or paypal. Click into the thread for all the rules!

If we were in a direct-democracy, I'd have my taxes funding NOAA fully.

Oil corps asked for $5 per Barrel credit
At the last minute #akleg decided to give them $8/B

SB 112 cuts the credits from $8 to $5
raising $400 million annually

$400M x 10yrs since SB 21 = $4B

$4 Billion of Alaskan PFD money was given away for no good reason

Take the whole $8

Always fun to play the game where you walk around the Seattle airport to find someone you know.

The BSA in Alaska is currently around $5,960. I think it should be raised. What is the breakdown of expenditures by % and when we raise it, what would it get spent on?

60 yrs ago was the March on Selma. 600 nonviolent Black protesters were beaten & the brutality of Bloody Sunday led to the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act

Yesterday in Transportation, I shared my concerns on HB 71 which would make protests like the March on Selma an arrestable offense. #akleg

Toolik is one of the few year round Arctic research stations. It's such an integral part of not just UAF or the UA system, but national and international Arctic research.

With all the testing at schools there has to be some pretty amazing data that shows what schools are improving those scores the most.

Ex many elementary schools feed into many middle schools. What type of elementary learning is best for kids’ learning in the long run(Montessori, 2nd language, etc)?
