If Haley Stevens can go from supporting Abdul El-Sayed to supporting his polar opposite, Mike Rogers, in less than 24 hours, she has no principles, no soul, no policies, no moral compass. She is just an opportunistic sore loser.
Haley Stevens says she is endorsing Mike Rogers for the U.S. Senate
i’ll let this anchorage daily news op-ed have the last word here: “Lower 48 news outlets have a history of failing to understand Alaska, and only randomly and quickly coming north to dig for gold, though often just taking home dirt.”
Opinion: New York Times Peltola story wins the Fox News Unfair and Unbalanced Award
New York Times journalists have allowed half of the story to elude them — the half that most Alaskans know, and Lower 48 reporters should too.

The view from the kayak yesterday morning. I got to spend some time with this lovely coyote and listen to its packmates howling in the morning fog. #mammals.
Haley Stevens is a bad person who screwed us all over, and also watching this interview gave me the most intense secondhand embarrassment I have experienced in decades
HALEY STEVENS: Anderson, this is a broader point about what's going on in our party COOPER: It's actually not. It's really just a question of why you changed your mind STEVENS I haven't cast my vote yet COOPER: So you might change your mind again?

A magical wonderland for street dogs. Hopefully we are only getting started as well. Lots more dogs to save ❤️
We’ve lost so many. But this was my favorite answer and tribute

My Wife and I are treating ourselves to a very cozy Halloween and a Caturday with the zoo on this cloudy autumn day. Halloween movies (not too scary), leftover candy from Thursday’s trick or treaters and pjs all day. Our puppy dog Mabel approves of this plan. #dogsofbluesky #Bostonterriers
We can all unproductively argue with each other now while ballots are being cast with fascists currently in power, or we can have much better arguments with each other when we're in power. I know which scenario I prefer. Win in November, argue in January.
Happy Halloween! I’m part of the culture crew for remote teams at work & co-lead a social club called Bird Nerds for all things birdwatching & nature & arts & stories for wellbeing. Asked to host our virtual Halloween party, there was really only one costume for me: Dr. Clara Mandrake. Caw! Caw!
It’s a perfectly moody Halloween morning with a rare overcast October day in Ohio this year. Today & tomorrow are the last days to vote early in person at our ONE voting location in all of Franklin County. And then it’s Election Day. Work some magic Ohio & let’s start to untrump our State. 🗳️💙
Love it. My favorite part about this is Buc-cees is owned by conservatives who have vowed to never let their gas stations open in blue states. It's like Talarico wandering into the lions den and the lions loving him instead of eating him.
Happy #Caturday! And a happy update to the kitten battle over the kitchen counter orthopedic chair cushion now fancy cat bed: there is peace in the land of cats who run our home. Queen Scout and Prince Séamus are sharing the throne.
Update. The old orthopedic support chair cushion now fancy new cat bed situation is getting tricky. 3 year old Scout is unamused by baby Séamus right now. #cats #caturday on a Wednesday.
Trump is reportedly planning to restart war with Iran after the election. Some of us have been briefed on the war plan. And while I cannot disclose any details, I can say this: the plan is insane. It will not achieve objectives and will set off a new cycle of escalation.
