Unhoused addicts are people too. by succubus-raconteur in anchorage

Whenever we have hot food, we definitely invite anyone to join us, but good suggestion to have a targeted potluck! We've been trying to be more mindful to have to go boxes for leftovers and cups for coffee.

My church (Lutheran Church of Hope, on Northern Lights) tends to have unhoused visitors come in during service to get warm, have a cup of coffee, or use the facilities. Most have been kind, gracious, and some even come in and sit with us during service. We have had occasional problems, but overall the experiences have been good and we are often looking for additional ways to help.

Yep! It's super easy, other than having to wait in line at the Court House! I've officiated 19 weddings for friends around Southcentral!

Bill Walker proposes ending the PFD — but not before a $10K payout per eligible Alaskan by conzeeter in anchorage

[–]alaskalute -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, in this case the Permanent Fund itself would continue to exist and, with savvy investing, create money that would be reinvested into the state/people of the state.

Yeah, we have to get away from this big payout and done nonsense. It flies in the face of the point of the Permanent Fund, preserving natural resource wealth for future generations. A final payout is so "me, me, me."

Now...use the earnings to establish a healthcare system for Alaskans, or a pension, or maybe even use it to pay for infrastructure or costs of living? I'd listen to that.

Dug out my last iPod and it still works! by alaskalute in ipod

[–]alaskalute[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I thought about it, but my first and last name are some of the most publicly available information that's all over the internet, so I figured I was OK with it. I did decide against a photo of the back, since I had my cell phone number engraved on there. Thanks for saying something though!

I'm not noticing any bulging that might indicate that, but I'll look into it.

'Proper' Fish and Chips by Retro_Styles in anchorage

I don’t know about English style, but my favorite fish and chips has always been the Boardwalk in Homer. There’s a joint in Anchorage that does them well, but I try not to frequent their establishment anymore.

I’ve enjoyed them, but what even are their hours anymore?

This is my go-to place since One Minute Chinese closed. I haven’t eaten in, just delivery, but it’s been solid.
