  14. Turning Point chapters are reviving at UA campuses.

    Expect these dweebs to try and get fired anyone to the left of, say, Mike Johnson.

    The bosses do not have your back in. Only solidarity and collective action can save us. At the first attack on ONE, ALL need to respond. Stop work! Wildcat strike!

  24. @joabaldwin Great! Free (except for the sweat and muscle strain) #music! And it is beautiful. I had to turn down a free #piano when I lived in #Ketchikan since there were 69 stair steps from street up to my house.

  25. 1957 Bell Telephone magazine ad featuring Ketchikan and noting their new underseas cables linking Lower 48 & Alaska. Note the high rates, $8.25--about $95 in 2025 money--for a daytime phone call from Chicago to Ketchikan. #alaskahistory #alaska #ketchikan

  28. Want some of our new stickers? Let us know! We'd love to have them on every #UA campus.

    But be secure and suspicious. Contact us directly with a burner email or with SimpleX. Give us a friend's mailing address or one UA doesn't know. Don't use your name. We're on your side, but don't trust blindly.

    (Preference for people who can actually distribute them in Alaska.)

  29. For #TravelThursday and from our visit to Alaska last year this is the famous Creek Street in Ketchikan. City laws banning brothels from the centre saw this part of Ketchikan flourish as its red light district during the first half of the twentieth century. These days it's a gloriously garish tourist trap.
