If you are Latino and voted for DJT because you think he won't deport you, think again! He doesn't give a damn if you are employed, family-oriented or if you voted for him. It doesn't matter! JFC, how sad on so many levels! #TrumpSucks

@npub13sx…9nv7 I don't expect anything to come from an investigation at all. It's going to be more of the same crap from 2016. Very fine people on both sides. No, one side is racist shits and the other side is just trying to live their daily lives.

@npub1zse…307r Nope! I felt safer in the woods with that bear than I would with a guy I don't know. Fact! There are trails I won't hike by myself because I don't feel safe and it has zero to do with bears.

"First things first: Yes, Santa Claus is his legal name. It’s on his government identification, and the mail that arrives at his apartment.
A long time ago, he was called Thomas O’Connor. He doesn’t answer to that name anymore. If someone shouted it in the North Pole Safeway, “I wouldn’t even turn my head,” he says.
This Santa Claus is a 73-year-old medical-marijuana-using, Bernie-supporting vegetarian monk who lives at the poverty line, does not drive and thinks — truth be told — that Christmas is a “crass commercial secular spectacle.”

I think I've mentioned that I lived in Nome from 1998-2001 and worked for The Nome Nugget and covered The Iditarod sled dog race and local politics. The first year I covered the Iditarod, my cousin came up to visit. One of the mushers was Dr. Sonny King, a veterinarian from South Carolina, which is where my cousin and I are from. Here is a photo of Sonny King leading his dogs to the burled arch finish line on Front St. in Nome and my cousin is "driving" the sled. These were some of the best years of my life! Living in Nome was a dream come true, but getting to cover The Last Great Race was friggin' AWESOME! This photo was taken by an AP photographer whose name I have forgotten.

@npub1qfg…f8mt It's my understanding that the beings we observe in tanks and/or living quarters are permanent residents for a myriad of reasons. I believe there are 3 octopi at the SeaLife Center.

"An off-duty Alaska Airlines pilot who tried to shut off the engines during a flight on Sunday told investigators that he thought he was having a nervous breakdown at the time and had consumed psychedelic mushrooms, court documents said.
In an interview with the police after he was taken into custody, the pilot, Joseph D. Emerson, 44, said he had not slept in 40 hours and had been depressed for about six months, according to a federal criminal complaint.
The officer and Mr. Emerson “talked about the use of psychedelic mushrooms, and Emerson said it was his first time taking mushrooms,” the criminal complaint states."

So disgusting on every level! 😡
"More than 20 endangered sea lions have been found dead in the Copper River Delta this summer, many with gunshot wounds. The National Marine Fisheries Service has now quadrupled the reward for information on the illegal killings to $20,000.
Sadie Wright, a biologist with the agency, said the dead animals were found during surveys of the area east of Cordova. This year, she said, it’s an unusually high number.
“We’ve done this for a number of years,” Wright said. “And this year we’ve found a big spike in the number of dead sea lions on the islands there.”
As of June 2, they’d found seven dead sea lions in the area. Since then, at least 15 more have been reported. Wright said by this time in previous years they’d found about three or four.
Steller Sea Lions are protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act. Killing them is illegal."

Hubby and I finally made it to Point Possession today! This has been a trip we have wanted to make for a few years, but the only way to get there is by our Ranger and one must be cognizant of the tides. Anyway, we had issues with the ranger our first two tries, but today, we made it! It's 29 miles up the beach and it was a journey with a flat tire, but we got there and it was so beautiful. Point Possession got its name from Captain Cook who "discovered" Alaska although the Dena'ina people had been here for millennia. Not to get all colonial and stuff, but it signifies the day he "took possession" of Alaska...HA! Right across from Point Possession is Fire Island, which used to be the home to Indigenous folks until disease forced them to move across Turnagain Arm to Point Possession. Fire Island became a US Air Force Station for an air defense radar center and Nike surface-to-air missile site for NORAD in 1951, but during the 1964 earthquake that hit Anchorage, most of it went underwater and was closed in 1969.

In #Alaska there are so many remote locations for people to hide and not be recognized even if they are a Supreme Court Justice. Both Scalia and Alito were provided private jets and expensive fishing trips to Alaska in years past. Neither of the justices reported these trips on financial reports. #ProPublica does amazing investigative work!

Hubby and I went to an air show in Kenai, #Alaska today and got to see a real treasure, a C46 Curtiss Commando, an airplane that was built during WWII. About 3700 were built and about 100 survive, most in museums. There are only a handful that are operational and "Hot Stuff" is in Alaska, based out of Fairbanks. It is owned by Everts Air Fuel and flies fuel to remote parts of Alaska. It was neat to be able to get on it and look around.

@npub156e…epw9 It's worse than that! He will now most assuredly be the GOP nominee for president in 2024, could win and pardon himself and destroy the country completely because of cultists.

This was truly a perfect day in so many ways...Trump was indicted, SCOTUS actually did the right thing, but MOST importantly of all, I saw not one, but THREE moose calves! The single calf earlier today and then this afternoon, a set of TWINS behind my house!💗 My pics aren't great, but I'm sharing them.

I present the Kenai Peninsula Borough Peace Crane Trails and Park located in Soldotna, Alaska. Today was the first visit of the summer. It's truly a lovely spot and one can even play some tunes!

Have you ever wondered how a black bear emerges from his/her tree den? Lucky for us, Michelle Hanson was there and took photos!

"The Biden administration proposed new limits Thursday on greenhouse gas emissions from coal- and gas-fired power plants, its most ambitious effort yet to roll back planet-warming pollution from the nation’s second-largest contributor to climate change.
A rule announced by the Environmental Protection Agency could force power plants to capture smokestack emissions using a technology that has long been promised but is not used widely in the United States.
“This administration is committed to meeting the urgency of the climate crisis and taking the necessary actions required,’’ EPA Administrator Michael Regan said."

I like to walk around the University of Alaska campus in Kenai and today, behind the dormitory, I came upon this lady doing some serious grazing. She gave me a brief glance and went on eating. 💗

Oh, how I love to read about convictions of sedition, especially when it involves the Proud Boy terrorists.
"Four members of the Proud Boys, including their former leader Enrique Tarrio, were convicted on Thursday of seditious conspiracy for plotting to keep President Donald J. Trump in power after his election defeat by leading a violent mob in attacking the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021."

I often wonder how I survived my childhood considering these were what we played on in the park in the neighborhood! 😲 😵

OK, folks! I cannot follow anyone else. I've reached my limit so that is sad. 😞 I don't know why there is a limit. Anyone know?
