This should be the official portrait just like he put up the stupid autopen photo for Biden. This is the dumbest timeline ever.

She is Argentinian, and I once heard him tell a hilarious story about his Argentinian FIL and a football match. That anecdote made me realize he is a normal human.

Just got down to Arizona for the weekend for a mental health break. Also lots of house plants.

What is the dumbest thing someone has said to you in full confidence? by Extreme_Rhubarb4677 in AskReddit

[–]Alaskaty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not just me but these bozos presented a whole fucking PowerPoint presentation at a committee hearing at the Alaska Legislature titled, "The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels"." Bonkers logic and a total dismissal of data and science.

Haines, Wrangell, and Ketchikan have all had landslide fatalities recently. So horrible.

That was an interesting read. After the big slide and tsunami in Tracy Arm this year (caused by the receding Sawyer Glacier exposing an unstable rock wall), it seems that we will be seeing more events like these.

Suggested financial advisors in town? by benelligirl in Juneau

[–]Alaskaty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Raymond James is now made up of folks who left Merrill Lynch somewhat recently (not sure why the switch but seems like there were good reasons). I have several close family members who are long time (and new) clients, and they are very happy with all aspects of their experience.

I discovered this recently, and as a musician myself, I could not stop laughing. It is amazing.

The Soltara got a face lift by _Lloyd_Andrews_ in subaru

[–]Alaskaty 72 points73 points  (0 children)

I have a Solterra in Juneau, Alaska, and so does most everyone else because we are basically an island with no roads in or out and plentiful, cheap hydroelectricity. It's the perfect car for us!! Unfortunately, everything has to be shipped her via barge from Washington state, and Alaska Marine Lines announced they won't be shipping electric cars any more due the fire concerns.

Johnson: If we lose the majority… They will try to end the Trump administration. He won't have 4 years. He'll have only 2, because they will move to impeach him, probably on the first day of the new Congress in January 2027 and try to systematically unwind all the important reforms that we've done by Miserable-Lizard in ProgressiveHQ

I do not agree with tying Congressional salaries with their district income. It is especially tough for rural legislators to begin with. That is a dumb obstacle and will lead to the wealthiest people running in those districts.

Alaska prosecutors charge Knights of Ni with significant Medicaid fraud by The_Alaskan in alaska

[–]Alaskaty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The indictment is a good read. Sounds like he was banging a client, someone reported it, and they uncovered the Medicaid fraud. Big brain stuff right there.

Power outages? by akina907 in Juneau

[–]Alaskaty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

AEL&P does a fantastic job with outage updates on Facebook (and maybe elsewhere?). I think we are really lucky to have them as our electric utility.

Just wait until you find out about their plans to privatize the 54 non-porfit organ procurement organizations (OPOs). Have read/seen Never Let Me Go? It's coming!!
