Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄😏

Surely one of you has a subscription to the Paris Review and can shoot me a copy of this: Alice Oswald, The Art of Poetry No. 119. Please? Pretty please?

Fish over Mining. No question

Below zero temps made us plug in our cars for the first time this year. Been over a week and supposed to last for awhile longer. Too cold to snow, and none in the near forecast, but would be nice.

SOB. You can't look away for a minute. Bills just went ahead again while I made coffee and let the dog out.

Kinda Sad and Scary that they really are that Afraid.

Decided to turn my back to that sad bit of TV and focus instead on the 2 dozen local oysters that we had for an appetizer. Main course is King crab from Nome and lobster from Maine. Oh my my.

Warnock: "Any nation that tolerates this kind of violence year after year, decade after decade in random places, on our college and school campuses, without doing all that we can to stop it is broken and in need of moral repair."

Let's Hope that its True.

🤣

"They are showing the blowing up of cartel boats like they're an old video game in a shopping mall." Nice insult by Douglas Brinkley on Ari Melber.

If you only have a couple minutes watch and be scared

This is an essential watch.

Oh my. Home made baked beans. With home made bacon. And Vermont Maple Syrup.

Oh Good Lord Home Made Apple Bacon And Fresh Eggs. Nice way to start a Sunday.

Whoa. Good morning Alaska. 6.0 long rolling earthquake with a good shake in the middle. Happy Turkey Day.

Really proud to be included in this years Alaska Positive, a Fine Art photo competition at the Alaska State Museum, that will then tour the State. This is " Blue Salmon", part of a continuing series on sustainability here in Alaska.

Let light be your oracle. Do not be afraid of darkness, for the long cold nights makes the short days sing. #apprenticetolight

When the sky is as white as the snow, you can expect some frosty weather. Taking a break from News and enjoying Football instead.

Sounds a little fairer.

I mean ....There has to be an explanation.

A perfect example of practice versus theory.

/11 Trump is what he is: an increasingly demented jumble of personality disorders prone to barking out whatever angry stupid thing pops into his head. And he’s the “leader of the free world.” But many politicians who took an oath to uphold the Constitution will echo his lawless dreck.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Jodi Cohen's thread here (read it all) is the day's most important read. bsky.app/profile/jodi...

Spent the day making Lingonberry Orange Sauce and Lingonberry Rhubarb Chutney. Just one of the many berries that I have to make yummy stuff with. All picked on our property.

The Lights are Out.

Kinda sad to say that The Price is Right is showing more respect to Veterans than our President is today.

Know the Facts.

Order the new special edition of HAMMER with loads of extras like a full script from @gregandelysee.bsky.social with annotations and a sketch book with lots of art by me and other prolific creators. Read.the review of the new special edition here indiecomixdispatch.com/reviews/revi...

Inks for a new book I'm working on. I love the format and size we are using for pages.

Whenever they call Mamdani a Communist remind them of this: finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-a...

So...ALL the "king's" horses and all the kings (billionaire) men.... couldn't beat Zohran & Newsom.... the end! 😆 🤣 😂 😹 Grab em by the 😹 ballot box Congrats to all the dems who won across the country! 🇺🇸 Long road ahead. No blinders on. But tonight... tonight is good!

so we probably aren't known by anyone in your organization. But we sure could use some fiscal support - and I feel like we fit in your wheelhouse. Contact me to learn more about Storyknife Writers Retreat! Thanks for all you do! 2/2 fin

Anyone know Mackenzie Scott? Dear Mackenzie Scott, I run a very small nonprofit that provides residencies to women writers, especially those from communities historically excluded from these opportunities. Our budget is too small to qualify for most of the "big" grants, and we're in Alaska, 1/2

Trump can throw a temper tantrum to get ads like these pulled off of TV all he wants, but the words of Ronald Reagan cannot be silenced - and it's clear as day that even Reagan would think what Trump was doing right now on trade was completely asinine. #ResistTrump

This is really interesting.

The most profitable years I had as a freelancer were during COVID lockdowns. People wanted entertainment, had more free time and needed decorative distractions. Grants were free flowing and people were spending less money on gas, transportation and car maintenance.

Listening to the Loons across Madawaska Lake Stockholm, Maine.

Left Alaska to go back to the East Coast to visit my partners Mom, to unfortunately say goodbye. Staying by the Lake where we have stayed for the last 4 yrs.

Finally finished helping out a fellow artist by hand sewing 47 rawhide pouches over the last week. Nice to learn a new skill. Now back to my own work that is due soon.

Went the beach this AM to celebrate getting older. Now I'm sitting by the fire, drinking PBR and waiting on some fresh beans and Spot Shrimp. Yum.

It has been a busy Summer. We grow most of our own food and put most of it up. Lots of branching and freezing and canning. The gardens and greenhouses are now empty, so its time for Art.

Time Line and Soul cleanse with lovely scenes of Alaska.

Far more importantly than C.K.

Well said,and good advice
