I've rethought my approach to social media and decided to stop splitting my online personality. For Here in Alaska goodies and so much more, please follow me over to @jennaschnuer.

Or the whole way through, banners chatting up your free shipping good fortune and you get to the address page and AK isn’t even listed on the pulldown menu.

2014 "‘Wat’sa with a Pearl Earring," giclée by Alison Marks Bremner, referencing Vermeer's "Girl with Pearl Earring." Per Bremner, piece "examines the exclusion of Northwest Coast art from the canon of 'great art' in mainstream art history." https://t.co/F4vebXwkeW #alaskahistory

You’ve heard of Ali and Frazier. Manning and Brady. Well let me tell you folks, the AK State Fair’s canning rivalry between Julie and Nancy is one for the ages.

People could literally help keep others from dying, but theyʼre like, "Nope. Freedom." This country was never founded in compassion and responsibility, but in an ideology of self over others, and it shows.

We're planning a show around COVID-19 and kids for next week. I told my dad, a retired Dr, and it turns out he just did a radio show last week on our hometown station interviewing pediatricians about the same thing. So he sent me his notes 🥺

@yeaitsyourmom Many out there seem to be working toward that for us. So just give it time. (Feel better!)

I try to ask every patient in the emergency department who is unvaccinated if they have questions about the COVID vaccine. The usual answer is a hard no.

Last night I had 5 patients say yes, we had great conversations and I think all 5 will choose to get vaccinated today. 🥰

@x_unei I can’t wait for the porkyoupi competition, a combined memory and BBQ competition.

[HereInAlaska @here_in_alaska]

@sea_changer I'd say it wins. In the worst way possible.
