Sorry for your experience! But on a three mile bike commute, I had near death experiences every day from cars. Once, I was hit by a car making a sudden illegal turn to get to a asking space, and it shattered my septum, gave me neck and back problems for years. And of course the driver was under-insured, and didn’t…

Fascinating! Thank you for sharing! And so glad you made it through and recovered. Aortic dissections are terrifying, obviously.

At one point Lincoln was a proponent of expatriation of slaves, but he had abandoned that position.

What?! Someone who uses the phrase “feminist-leaning man hater” has difficulty satisfying his wife in bed? SHOCKER.

I'd agree that *Stalinism* and Nazi fascism are both so bad it doesn't make sense to get into a pissing contest about which is worse. (Just stubbornly sticking to the point that Soviet history, despite major problems throughout, is not entirely reducible to Stalinism.)

How about the Trail of Tears, Small pox blankets, nuclear testing on native Alaskans, and, oh yes, slavery? The U.S. is responsible for some horrible human rights abuses, and many would argue that the legacy continues.

OK, it seems that the Cook Inlet Tribal Council was the force behind the game, but it's about Inupiaq culture, which is from the opposite side of the state. Great opportunity to learn more about the communities of the North Slope Borough! If you can, take a trip up to Barrow. It's a wonderful community.

Wait, can you clarify? The Inupiat are based in northern Alaska. South Central Alaska is subarctic: snowy and cold in the winter, but not particularly frigid.
