Thumbs up, thumbs down

Thumbs up

Red Cross: Donors step up to fund earthquake recovery: ExxonMobil, Teck, GCI, Marathon Petroleum, BP, Alyeska Pipeline and others.

Memes: The Anchorage Museum is collecting and archiving earthquake memes. Some are LOL-funny.

Journalism: The Anchorage Daily News is one of only 14 newsrooms partnering with ProPublica on local reporting in 2019.

Red Kettle: An anonymous donor drops a $1,200 coin into a Salvation Army red kettle in Wasilla.

Thumbs down:

Pollution: A fishing boat sinks in Seward Boat Harbor and leaks fuel. Bummer.

Aftershocks: Alaskans are over it. No more earthquakes, please, no matter how small.
