I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

I think the Glenn Hwy extremely close moose sighting is up to 17 already

RIP Jane Goodall.
All my life there’s been Jane Goodall. On Johnny Carson watching after bedtime because there were going to be chimps on tv…As a voice of conservation reason as she revealed that humans are not necessarily exceptional, but similar to chimps in many ways.

What a life. Thank you. 🐒

And Rep Vance is an alaska moose nugget. What a turd pile.

Just to note. January 23, 2019 there was a vote to reopen government (HJ RES 28, roll call vote 46) when the govt had been shut down for 30 days.

Mike Johnson voted “no” on that.

They didn’t seem to mind shutdowns then

Happy federal government shutdown to all who observe. /s

Health care is a human right.

Good luck to all involved. ✊🏻

Was getting worried. Phew.

All of Alaska will no doubt be excited to learn that Dustin Darden is running for U.S. Senate: docquery.fec.gov/pdf/058/2025... #akleg

Hi Kenobi! Radagast the Brown also has a new big boy collar. We lost some functionality this week- 1 year in, it was time. 🐾🐾

I need a new video update with real information.

It’s not termination dust if it doesn’t stick. Hatcher Pass looks like it’s melted out. Cry harder @climatologist49.bsky.social

And know how to quit buying advertising on them. Super easy. Sinclair sucks. Nothing new.

Whatever else you think of him, I don't think he is insincere about this stuff, and it should be recognized as extraordinary that he, Pritzker, and other governors are talking about the federal government in these terms. It's not normal political rhetoric, it's the language of existential emergency.

Jimmy Kimmel’s “as I was saying” opener wasn’t random—it’s a callback to Jack Paar. In 1960 Paar walked off The Tonight Show after NBC cut a mild “WC” joke. 3 weeks later he returned, opening with the same line. Kimmel nodded to one of late night’s boldest moments.

1A. Learn it. Fight for it. Know your rights.

By the way, Jamie, Eagle River was fabulous despite your bullshittery tonight

She’s such a shit bag

< Hand wringing intensifies >

Aw.

RIP Graham Greene.

Go watch Thunderheart. Or be bit by a fucking badger.

A court gave Trump the green light to start canceling federal workers' union contracts. Millions of public servants will have fewer rights and protections at work.

Trump's Republican Party is anti-worker — period.

NWS is hiring! Are you interested in working for an agency that uses science and technology to protect lives and property? Additional mission-critical positions just posted on usajobs.gov, including Meteorologist (1340) openings. Many are great opportunities for first-time hires. More coming soon!

Here’s to the couple sitting next to me on the Alaska bound flight last night that was disappointed that I wasn’t @deesnider.bsky.social after seeing my D/Sni on the upgrade board. 🤘

The kids are alright.

Trump and Vance “admitting” the criminal investigation of Bolton is coming from the White House isn’t a mistake. They want critics to understand if they cross Trump, they can be subject to criminal investigation. They want people to know that law enforcement has been politicized.

Earthquake

Really. If I hear a steady stream- or maybe not so steady- should I hope that it’s you with a long pour of a beverage? Or near a gentle brook?

Is it me, or are more people continuing to yackity yack either on speaker or with one hand on the phone while at the urinal? Seriously? I must be old.

Good riddance, James Dobson. If Dog, may she send you packing. Focus on your own damn family.
