Happy Caturday!! #caturday #blueberrythecat

Fuck that! I have no interest in giving up rights my mother and grandmothers fought for. I am not property.

I will be one of the panelists this year. If you have questions or things you think I should cover please leave them in the comments.

A pretty picture for Sunday.

Get weird! Be feral!!

“These are normal, everyday people who are saying I’ve had enough. I’ve seen institutions fall. I’ve seen universities, I’ve seen businesses, I’ve seen law firms not stand up, not support our liberal democracy. So what am I going to do as an individual?” “That’s what tomorrow is about.” - Ezra

Lithuanians in Vilnius paid more respects to the 4 American troops who died in Lithuania than Donald Trump…who ran off to go golfing.

The complete lack of basic economics is astounding! This is going to hurt so many. The US losing it’s leadership role in the economy will have so many ripple effects throughout the US and globally.

Millions of you, around the world, have put the lessons I wrote in #OnTyranny in late 2016 to good use. It has been humbling to learn how from courageous and creative dissenters, protestors, and oppositionists. I was honored when John Lithgow volunteered to read them aloud.

Hugs to all the decent people who have remained Humane throughout this train wreck. We have strength in our numbers and our voices. They know it. And they are afraid of us. Let us not disappoint by maintaining our power and preserving our freedom. They can expect us.

Happy Sunny Saturday! #Caturday #Alaska

Kakistocracy!

Our self-serving senator is a slavish MAGA coward. He needs to be reminded and reminded often that he works for us and not his political party or a convicted felon. #akleg #akgov #alaska

I haven’t posted much lately. It has been an incredibly busy couple of months working on the school district budget. Done for the moment. Happy Caturday #caturday

A great op-ed from Alaska Historical Society calling on the BOR to rescind their motion. UA board of regents is willfully complicit with a lawless administration www.newsminer.com/opinion/comm...

Very bad indeed!

New York Times, Jan. 26, 1935.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

This man is the leader of the free world.

Yessssss.

Rule of law, stable institutions, an independent central bank, and a functioning democracy create the environment for a healthy and robust economy. It is all under attack at the moment.

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

I was given 3 hours to get out of my office when the Dunleavy administration came in. That was as a difficult morning for both myself and other staff. I can’t imagine trying to get out of a house in 3 hours.

Having watched with growing alarm the developments of the last 24 and 36 hours in Washington, I thought I’d take a stab at how the US media would cover this story if it was happening in a foreign country. Here’s that story that should be written this weekend: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

This is not normal. This is not ok. They are not federal civil servants with the requirements to protect this sensitive information. DOGE is not a real entity. Period. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

What?! So, did they not listen or didn’t want to believe it would come to pass? This is exactly what was promised. The word salad is just trying to hide that they were complicit. Baffle with bullshit! Unfortunately, this is so often what economists do.

This!!

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

I'm not teaching my grad course 'Civil Resistance: How It Works' this semester. But here is an abridged version of the course schedule, readings, and films I used the last time I taught it (in 2022). Just in case it's useful. drive.google.com/file/d/14RRJ...

The State can’t fill positions. Remaining staff try to cover the workload. Unvetted process changes, especially in administrative work, is increasing the workload further. People are burning out. But nothing to see here! Move along!! www.dermotcole.com/reportingfro...

50,000 gallons per second!! That is how fast the Juneau ice field is melting. The picture are of the Mendenhall flood this past summer. #climatechange #climateemergency www.commondreams.org/news/juneau-...

Happy New Year!

RIP President Carter. Thank you for all you did to make our world a better place.

Blueberry says Happy Caturday! #caturday #catsofbluesky

My friend spends his time plugged into a chemo bulb arguing with his insurance companies. He is terminal. I find the whole idea that this is how he has to spend his time incredibly disgusting and disturbing. Healthcare should not be for profit. PERIOD. www.nbcnews.com/news/investi...

I think science actually embraced me.

Happy Winter Solstice!

Oh, FFS!!

Alaska is one of the 12 states. Shameful!

Happy Friday the 13th! #corvid #alaska

This is... actually a fairly reasonable takeaway from this year.

🌊 Hey everyone! Please watch this video about this summer's Juneau Glacier Outburst Flooding, and I believe it's crucial to make sure we find a solution as fast as possible. Please share, let’s make this video go viral ! youtu.be/GvihOlZZzbA
