The adults: "we don't keep score at this age"

The kids: "It was 6-7, I had a hat trick and went +2 with an assist, we're on a two game streak and are the second best team in our league"

Childcare is a big deal for keeping transplants up here. "Figure it out" works when Grandma lives in town. "Figure it out" for a transplant means moving back to the Lower 48.

Saw a take that most of the base of any statewide sales or income tax is mostly the Anchorage metro area - and that would make the politics of spending elsewhere interesting. Something I knew but hadn't thought enough about #akleg

I'm joining the Covenant House Alaska sleep out, and right now there is a dollar for dollar match to provide their kids (who are disproportionately LGBTQ, Alaska Native and/or young mothers) with housing & education. Please donate!

DU hockey falls in the series opener against Alaska Anchorage as the Seawolves win it in overtime. Back-to-back losses for the Pios in which they dramatically out-shot their opponent.

For $10 you can take kids to the dump and watch big trucks for hours.

For the last 5 years Ive joined this event in solidarity with homeless youth in AK and raise $ to provide housing, food, and support.

Most years because of twitter/bluesky users I outraise oil co and executive types. A lot of you give a little, and it adds up

Flying in Alaska is a trip sometimes.

Hey #Alaska I'm fundraising for Covenant House Alaska - a youth homeless shelter in Anchorage that serves kids from around the state. They provide shelter, food, education and support to get kids off th Street and moving forward.

Can I get a little help?

The city of Kotzebue is under mandatory evacuation orders. That's as the community prepares for flooding the National Weather Service warns could be worse than last year's, which led to dozens of evacuations and two families losing their homes.

Important context for out-of-state folks: all of these communities are off the road system. Think about all the struggles communities face to evac in more typical situations when you can drive some place safe, and then imagine there's no road and no flights. That's what we're talking about here.

Here are four graphics that show how much the PFD's purchasing power has changed over the years. UAA economist Brett Watson says they tell us "as much about how we think about inflation or the things that we buy as it does about the dividend itself."
