Alaskan. Hoping for a better future. Pro Oxford comma.
I will mourn Robert Redford. I feel like he represented the liberal era. It feels like the end is now very final.

Dan Sullivan’s vote to cut funding for NPR cuts money for emergency alert upgrades. Remember that the next time there’s an earthquake or fire.

The man is a tool.

I wish I’d thought of this. Brilliant.
ICE agents are complaining that every time they go out (unmasked/in unmarked cars) protesters are dumping pounds of glitter on them.

So people can identify them as ICE for days afterward.

Time to buy glitter . . .

You guys. I think the new JD Vance official photo looks like Chucky. Except for the hair. Somebody must have a meme….

For Alaskans, the resignation of Ranj Pillai as Yukon Premier may be significant. Pillai had rejected harsh measures toward Alaska as a response to American tariffs and the bellicosity of the Trump administration. Someone more aggressive might change that approach. #akleg

@srkelleher.bsky.social with tourism down (air travel and international visitation) do you have projections for how the year will turn out? I’m curious. (I work in Alaska tourism)

It never ceases to amaze me that it's always the people who take advantage of things like health treatments or social security benefits (Paul Ryan) who are the first to terminate them for everybody else.

WTAF? 😱
Despite seeing several people I totally trust say this was real I still felt I had to verify it with my own eyes. And having done so I still can't believe it's real.

The nationwide measles outbreak now stands at more than 800 cases, but you probably don’t know that since RFK Jr is keeping a tight lid on that news.

The orange areas in the below map show where the vaccination rate is under the 95% coverage target among kindergarteners. That’s a LOT of orange!

The House just voted that “each day for the remainder of the 119th Congress shall not constitute a calendar day for purposes of section 202 of the National Emergencies Act.” A day is not a day. Lewis Carroll, George Orwell, and Franz Kafka must all be chuckling — or weeping.

This letter appeared in the Bloomsburg PA Press Enterprise this morning. I am assured the writer is who he purports to be, an Air Force veteran.

It's so tiresome how the same folks who claim to believe in the personal responsibility "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" ideology rally around a guy who had everything handed to him and takes responsibility for NOTHING.

Check the whirlpools that suck in solar wind to the poles. #aurora
Every second, the Sun ejects 1.5 million tons of material into space at hundreds of miles per second, but Earth's magnetic field protects it from the solar wind.
