Alaska Community Foundation has set up a link to donate funds for those affected by the storms and flooding in Western Alaska.

AKCF is an amazing organization and 100% legit.

An insult to Veterans who deal with this disability everyday who proudly served our country in war zones around the world. He is a total distraction to the office.

On this #IndigenousPeoplesDay I'd like to draw attention to the western #Alaska storm that is causing whole houses to float away into waters that will make you hypothermic in no time, especially around the town of Kotzebue. The latest on Fbook says the Coast Guard is there now.

Espy @esp1371.bsky.social · 1d

There is a major storm with high winds causing severe flooding on SW Alaska near the Bering Sea and the Yukon Delta. This follows severe flooding in NW Alaska in Kotzebue earlier this week. A lot of native villages are going to need a lot of help and you know it's not coming from the feds.

FB reports of major flood damage in Kipnuk - homes and store floating, people swimming.
Very high water in Quinhagak as well.

Western Alaska was hit hard by the recent storms. Houses floated away in Kipnuk, houses flipped over, people lost everything from the flooding that came with the storms. Please donate if you can. This group has a long history of supporting AK communities.

A very sad state of affairs for our LGBTQ+friends

Survey finds LGBTQ+ adults have taken steps to become less visible given political climate

Even though 92% of anti-LGBTQ bills don't become law, survey respondents said they still do harm.

If you are in Anchorage looking for a relaxing coffee shop downtown, please go check out my friend’s place. She has been really good to me lately. Brings me the best homemade soups once a week too.

Don’t usually plug businesses here, but Birgit’s place is really worth me bending that rule.

Stay safe out there. Look out for each other. Alaskans are at our best when we look out for each other.

Alaskans along hundreds of miles of coastline brace for massive storm

Forecasters say the powerful storm, potentially historic in strength, is expected to slam into the Y-K Delta early Sunday and then race up the coastline, bringing destructive winds and surging seas.
