  3. Today was nice until it wasn’t.

    I monuMENTALLY fucked up during a conversation with Juneau about an hour ago. I don’t want to go into detail but I feel really sad about it and also really guilty for feeling really sad about it because I don’t think I have any right to because I’m the one who fucked up. So I don’t really know what else to say here (or at all) since it feels like my mind has run completely out of words?

    So I’m going to disappear for awhile and feel my feelings without making them anyone else’s problem.

  6. An awesome wave of two thousand wings…

    I had a dream last night/this morning straight out of a Gabriel Garcia Márquez novel.

    I was in Louisiana and yet somehow in my old yard at the same time and there was supposed to be a massive storm coming but we were far enough inland that the storm surge wouldn’t affect us directly, but they were calling for some very powerful waves, and before the storm came in there was a lot of fog. And I was talking with some people who were also there (because apparently that was a thing) about the storm and the waves and maybe going down to the beach to see it like dumbasses when all of a sudden a patch of fog exploded into about a thousand birds of different colors.

    And I was amazed because these birds looked like cardinals but some of them were purple and yellow and I wanted to feed them so that they’d get close enough to me so that I could take pictures of them, but it turned out I didn’t need to. These birds congregated around me like they knew me as I got down on the grass and started snapping photos and laughing because I was trying not to disturb them but they KEPT FOLLOWING ME. As all of this absurdity was going on, I was composing poetry in my head, but I CANNOT REMEMBER THE LINES. And I looked up at one point and Juneau was there, leaning on one of the wooden pillars the porch my old house had, watching with this strange, knowing smirk on his face, like he had planned this whole scene to delight me even though he HATES BIRDS, and then I woke up.

    I have no idea what any of that meant, but it was gorgeous.

  7. Wellllllll in a turn of events that surprised nobody with eyes, Juneau and I are dating now.

    I have a lot of feelings about this update and I could probably gush about this for ages but for now, I’m going to leave it at that.

  10. Juneau International PAJN → Skagway PAGY

    Today I was able to fly in camouflage. The paint job of the Baron matched some of the landscape along the way exactly ;-) (see the third image)

    There wasn't much room for the approach in Skagway: I had to fly into the rather narrow valley and make a 180-degree turn there in order to land on Runway 20.

  12. Petersburg James A. Johnson PAPG → Juneau International PAJN

    Did you know Juneau is Alaska’s capital? I totally didn’t: had my money on Anchorage 😳 Never too old to learn something new!

    The RNAV approach here is quite interesting. It gets you close to the airport, but the final leg has to be flown visually, after a 15° right turn to line up with the runway.

  20. 🚨 WHAT HAVE YOUR LAWMAKERS DONE FOR YOU, LATELY?
    It’s the end of the session in Juneau. Everything lawmakers worked on this year has been pulled together and measured with a single grade.
    🚌 Schools. 🏡 Housing. ⚡️ Energy. 💰 The PFD. 🧠 Mental health funding. All of it feeds into one final result.

  22. 🚨Alaska is seriously debating … cabbage! 🥬
    Yes, really. A giant cabbage is moving one step closer to becoming an official state symbol. But, behind the jokes is a bill that says something about how Alaska defines itself. Now it heads to its next stop.

  24. My friends will be in Juneau briefly at the end of the month, I'm *trying* not to photodump. They aren't hiking, which is pretty much all I do when I'm there, are there any really good restaurants? I usually buy things from Rainbow foods, takeout pizza..., they're fine diners, so I'm clueless.

  26. I think I’m going to turn in early tonight, y’all,

    (for me, anyway).

    I’m processing a lot and my brain feels so overtaxed that it’s a struggle to think or even breathe at times. I’ve been struggling to even message Juneau, and that’s been quite easy of late. I think I’ve overworked myself into a hole.

    So I’m going to have a leisurely smoke and then I think I’m going to attempt sleep.

    G’night, y’all.

    If y’all want to help me feel less overtaxed, please check out my Patreon. It would be a huge help. 💛

  30. 🇺🇸 In 1942, Juneau High School left an empty chair at graduation.
    It wasn’t a mistake. It was for their missing valedictorian.
    What happened next became one of Alaska’s most powerful stories of injustice, courage, and community.

  33. Be The Fletcher To My Island

    Sometimes having DID and headmates that are JUST as talented as you at both the same things – and different ones – is a fuckin’ gas, y’all.

    Back in 2014-ish I wrote a poem that turned into one of my better-known songs about a crush of mine. It was called “My Island”. I was obsessed with the Mutiny on the Bounty for reasons I still can’t quite articulate, and the second verse contains one of my favorite lines I’ve ever written:

    “Be the Fletcher to my island, be the Fletcher coming coming home”

    I’m not entirely sure why that line gets me so bad more than a decade later. It may be the fact that it’s a reference to Fletcher Christian, leader of the Mutiny on the Bounty, choosing the South Pacific over duty, country, etc., and settling with a few members of his crew in one of the most remote places on Earth, Pitcairn Island, after mutinying, and wanting to feel chosen like that. Maybe it’s my love for history references in general. Maybe it’s that I still yearn for people like I did when I was 14-17 and I struggle to express it now, and I love that line so much because it’s My Peak Teenage Yearning, something I feel like I can’t verbalize anymore, even though I’m arguably more safe now to do so than I was then.

    Anyway, here’s the original take as it appeared on our first self released EP Fletcher Coming Home: Good Stuff From 2014.

    A different cut appeared awhile later on our first album The Mellon Session as well:

    But my favorite version of “My Island” came much later when Eight was host and he snuck into a church while bored out of his fucking skull to record this absolutely achingly beautiful take of “My Island” for his then-partner Juneau.

    I can still feel the longing even now, and his arrangement is so fucking beautiful.

    Holy shit.

  35. “still life (2019)”

    “untitled still life (2019)” 

    I don't want to give names
    to your fistfuls of hollow
    coffee cup still half full, overturned
    baroque broken words, reaching for something
    that forever seems older
    than you or I in every language
    well run dry, and yet
    despite yourself
    each moment in atemporal space
    teeming with life

    when we met, I
    wanted to drink myself into the ground,
    an inelegant death like hemingway perhaps
    after bleeding worlds onto ten thousand pages
    inspired by black coffee and gin
    I'm sober now and you're still empty glasses,
    the smell of pages, wine
    and cigarettes after two years of silence
    I can still vanish into the liquor darkness of you
    without ever tasting a drop
    I don't want to die anymore
    (most days)
    and perhaps I am a fool
    for wandering through your still life fortress of
    melancholy

    but you keep coming back to me,
    three hundred year old moment
    or perhaps you are a memory
    I've never been good at untangling how I feel
    and some days I feel like I am made of iron
    but today I feel like nothing more than glass -
