Hi! I'm an owner of the Alaska Robotics Gallery in Juneau where we sell comics, board games, art supplies, and local artwork.

I make short films, comics, picture books, host a comics camp and post a lot about Alaska policy.

#akleg There is an Alaska connection to Adam Crum's sketchy $50m investment. DigitalBridge owns a controlling stake in Vertical Bridge which bought out 275 of GCI's wireless towers.

I'm not sure if this acts as a funnel towards a specific project or person but I hope the legislature can find out.

I got to play this game the other day and I'll go out on a limb and say it was GREAT. A monster maker with fun strategic decision making... Do I stock up on hats or burn them all to hopefully craft a limb!?

#akleg Costello forced out as Minority leader after less than a year. Deepening rifts within the AKGOP it would appear.

Anchorage Republican Rep. Mia Costello served just under a year in the role.

In self-interest but also general interest, folks: Black Friday is coming up, and small publishers/independent creators will always be a better choice than megacorps.

When the sales drop, please remember that!

Also, you can find it at our online store and if you make a little note requesting scribbles, I will be happy to draw a bear or a goat or personalize it for a kiddo in your life.
