Hi! I'm an owner of the Alaska Robotics Gallery in Juneau where we sell comics, board games, art supplies, and local artwork.

I make short films, comics, picture books, host a comics camp and post a lot about Alaska policy.

I'm forever angry that the Alaska Railroad is functionally an expensive tour bus and not a viable alternative to flying or driving between ANC and FAI.

In response to President Trump endorsing a GOP rival for the office of governor, Dave Bronson said that the president’s recollection of events was “different" from his own.

It's Matt's pizza. It had carrots on it.

If I missed you and you're interested in a copy of my book, "The Big Bear and the Blueberry Moon," I left a stack at Solstice.

I did a couple talks in Fairbanks this week and it was great to see old familiar faces and meet new people along the way. Thanks to everyone for coming out to listen to me talk and share movies and read picture books!

They should have been clear about this person's residency status. Is this an Alaskan? Interesting to hear the perspective and openness to income taxes.

Good results in the CBJ elections. We avoided the worst outcomes and successfully backstopped our recreation facilities.

I love a brisk autumn morning walk with clear skies in Juneau. Mist curling off the water, frost on the marsh, and golden dawn over the airport. Perfect start to the day. 🍂✨

I love that I live in a state where you just walk right up to a gubernatorial candidate and hash things out.

@pat.alaskarobotics.comOct 9, 2026, 12:31 AM

His response was well, which do you want, a dividend or an income tax. Because we can't have both. He said we couldn't bring in money with one hand and pay it out with another. Which is a wild statement because the state government literally exists to do that.

@pat.alaskarobotics.comOct 9, 2026, 12:28 AM

It was nice talking to him. Reassuring in a way because he just didn't have that frustrating spark of a truly malign intellect. Just kind of a guy. We agreed that a statewide sales tax was wrong for Alaska but his eyes really bulged out when I told him we needed an income tax.

@pat.alaskarobotics.comOct 9, 2026, 12:13 AM

Dave Bronson told me all the billionaires left New York and there was only one left... Which is both hilariously wrong and a not a good argument against an income tax in Alaska where we have right around zero billionaires claiming residence.
