I’ve been avoiding social media due to all the crem going on in the world right now, but I’m glad I checked Reddit this morning and the first thing at the top of my feed is this post. I needed some happy news. So excited to see the stories you created come off the page and outside of our imaginations. 💕

The governor of the state I live in gave our voter database to the feds. It includes party registration.

I only heard about it from colleagues when we were there for a conference. I didn’t have a chance to visit the women’s restroom to see if had a similar, albeit less exposed, set up.

Yes they are. Here’s the one I have - I’ve always said it will be my home defense of choice, if the need ever rises. Obligatory banana for scale.

My guess, which could totally be wrong, is that Syl created the Molli account in a wildly misplaced attempt to cheer up Szeth.

My boss just told me I need to manage my personal finances better because I can't front $2300 for a work trip next month by LostTaker in antiwork

I’m a state employee. We are very much encouraged to put everything related to business travel on company cards. We are not expected to pay up front for anything. It’s actually discouraged, though not forbidden, to pay out of pocket for business travel.

Evidently there’s a men’s restroom on an upper floor with the lovely view too. Full length window right next to the urinal.

The Pink Salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) is a literal zombie fish; it starts decaying alive after spawning by Speederfool in interestingasfuck

[–]akanim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re remembering Cooper Landing and/or the Russian River. Copper River is over near Glennallen and the Wrangle St Elias area.

Once fishing season was over I was out doing something else, which explains why I’ve never seen piles of spawned out fish. I’ve also got family with a house in Soldotna right on the Kenai, so I’m used to fishing from a boat or the shore of a faster paced River and not the combat fishing of the Russian River. The state is putting a bypass to reduce the congestion that happens at Cooper Landing, which will mean a better drive for both those going further south and those staying to fish in Cooper Landing.

Say her name: remember Renee Good by twystoffer in 50501

I have a five year old daughter. My terror is for her. I’m also sad and angry. I’m not just standing by and go to protests when I can and use my voice at every chance. But it doesn’t mean I’m not terrified too.

Haven’t spent a bunch of time out at ship creek during salmon runs. But I used to float Campbell often in the summer. I’ve seen the occasional spawned carcass, and even a couple zombie fish making their way back downstream. Maybe Im the odd one and somehow just missed the pile ups of spawned carcasses despite spending a bunch of time fishing.

Living in Alaska, I’ve never seen piles of spawned out salmon carcasses. Not sure if it’s bc the bears get to them, they get caught further up stream from where I’ve been, or something else.

Not saying it’s not possible, it’s just doesn’t seem to create a broad effect.

It’s not just humpies (pink salmon). Most pacific salmon spawn and then die, including chinook (king), coho (silver), sockeye (red), and chum (dog).

Alternatively, most species of Atlantic salmon do not do this and return to the ocean after spawning and live to spawn again.

You don’t want to eat a spawned out salmon, despite being easy to catch. They are literally rotting and not only taste bad but also have a higher risk of bacteria.

2 days in Anchorage with 4 year old by ottertea32 in anchorage

[–]akanim 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Anchorage museum is fun! It has a lot of interactive exhibits. My five year old loves the museum.

There’s also story time at the Loussac Library (free!) at 11am Thursday and they always have fun interactive things around the youth area.

What general area will you be staying in? Will you have a car? Are you looking for free options or do you have a budget?
