'“Do you think her going after your eyelashes, that that, in itself, is racist?” State of the Union host Jake Tapper asked Crockett on Sunday.

“I think her specifically doing it to me, yes, that was the intent,” Crockett said.'

Agreed. It was a #racist dogwhistle.

@benroyce that’s when you realize how fierce and talented our women of color congress folks are, they get dealt that double standard on fucking capital hill every day — still they’re human and need and deserve all the extra love and support to stay healthy amid that buuuullllshit

@mivox the forest service Re did one of our main trails in Petersburg and the contractor really nailed a few stretches with the rock work, it always inspires me and I walk it pretty much constantly. that’s the power of good infrastructure on public land 😂

@mivox idk what pot of money this one came out of but it also has heli-placed aluminum stairways 😂over several steep areas people used to get lost in, it is a masterpiece! The cool thing is that it has legit gotten so many more people hiking regularly because it is actually accessible to everyone who can walk, plus the first section is wide enough for walkers etc too — it’s really been transformational, worth every penny

And the #NewMexico to #Alaska journey begins! I figured I could benefit from some company so I have my copilots Nori the Narwhal navigating and Still In The Box Furby riding shotgun.

Petersburg, Alaska’s Little Norway Festival, where we close the street to cars and drop an actual iceberg in front of the pot shop #syttendemai

@seachanger@alaskan.social avatar

also dudes wear matching Norwegian sweaters, there are fish throwing and weight pulling contests, and you can eat fry bread, Vietnamese, West Indian, Cajun, Mexican, and BBQ etc all on a tiny island in the middle of nowhere on which white supremacy propelled early Norwegian immigrant fishermen to an enduring top of the social hierarchy on Lingít lands but the need to process fish has brought wave upon wave of people from all over the region and world

I was powerless against these dangly stuffed animals made by our West Indian boat upholsterer with her scrap fabrics and bought some for “gifts” which we all know I will keep, and also look at these yellow cedar and mountain mahogany items turned by an awkward pale and red haired teenage boy who I had to propel artist information out of by sheer force of will #syttendemai

and sorry icymi here is a superfluous and self aggrandizing action photo of me in the little Norway festival parade that someone just texted me* #syttendemai

If you have pets, you likely call them things which have nothing to do with their actual names. Biscuit’s nicknames: Mr. Baby, Babby, Babs, Willa Willa, Little Love.

Putuuqti’s nicknames: Other Baby, PP, Babby, Willa Willa, Little Love

All animals are “Baby” and “Cutie” to me.

What are the alternate names for your critter friends?

@Shanmonster mr Pilot gets called bubs, Mr bubs, pie pie, pelota, pupusa, big boi

EugeniaLoli, to illustration

Some folk art style #illustration I did months ago but only now I scanned. I bought this new #Epson scanner, and it's so much better than my 20 year old one! So much more dynamic range, for starters! And better colors. Happy to see Sane under #Linux supporting it fully.
