This whole thing is ridiculous

Decoded list of weather observations from Fairbanks Airport Sunday morning March 1, 2026 showing the low temperature between 3m and 9am AKST was -49F and at 9am visibility was one quarter mile in ice fog.

Fairbanks airport low temperature Sunday morning of -49F (-45.0C) ties the record low for March 1 (also 1956). The only lower March temps were March 12 & 13, 1911, when the low temp both days was -56F. Also, this is likely the first time with dense ice fog in March since Mar 1, 1956. #akwx #Climate

Wooow- maybe we’re due for a good old fashioned slideshow night

It has not been a good winter running year in Fairbanks- typically by this time of year its not too crazy to get out a few times a week. Not this year

It probably isn’t an opposing campaign- I think most seasoned campaign types in alaska know enough not to run afowl of APOC and campaign rules

I can fit a whole suitcase in my bra personally

When we work side by side with fellow Alaskans and focus on the work, even when we disagree, we get things done.

That is how we lower energy costs, strengthen schools, and rebuild trust in government. We need leaders who put results above politics.

And yes I stayed up until 4am reading it on a work night and am now downing coffee

@fondalee.bsky.social ‘s Jade City has hands down some of the best character writing I have ever encountered- writing masterclass in how its done

RFK Jr.: ‘Time In Hot Cars Helps Babies To Sweat Out Toxins’ WASHINGTON—In a new claim challenging traditional pediatric norms regarding infant safety, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Tuesday that being left in a hot car coul...

“Roll up the windows, park in a sunny spot, and let the sun do its magic—in a couple hours, your baby will have all the toxins flushed from its system,” Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the tension between the principles of “freedom to” vs. “freedom from” in the context of public health.

Public health is often working toward “freedom from”; from smoke-filled air or vaccine-preventable disease, or from having a mass shooting at an elementary school.

I know I talk a lot about my dad on main but I appreciate that he encouraged me to focus on school over whatever hobby I was into and put some hard boundaries on much money was spent on it. Hoping to do the same with future kids and not let it get too out of control

I have a colleague who has been sending me bad AI summaries of the emails me and my boss send her and it’s a mind blowing level of bizarre
