So disappointed in so much of this city leadership. It’s exhausting trying to advocate for North Portland when it’s painfully obvious the city will continue to shill for landowners who would rather sit on vacant buildings than charge affordable rents. And then blame residents and business owners -

This human sack of shit was allowed to type that out and hit send. Instagram will not let me send the following reply because it’s deemed “insensitive”. I want to tear my eyes out. I know I’m not the only woman feeling this way today. I see all of the silence from men I consider “good men”.
Strike was averted in the 11th hour. Deal preserves the liberal status quo of the bare minimum 3% COLA - but you know it’s something. Really hopes this helps the city unions w their negotiations!
Classified staff at Oregon Universities strike today. Seeing some misrepresentation in article language. They are being offered a reduction to 1% COLA adjustments (0% years 2-4 if I understand correctly). Has the cost of living gone up 1% annually? 3% is the bare minimum, though inadequate. 1/

I hate that we live in a world where survivors must speak out in order to fill the silence that should be filled by those who claim to want to defend us. The same shrill clowns screeching about protecting woman and girls in sports have NOTHING to say about the Cornel 7. Extremely telling. (Cont)
Just a reminder we are actively harming Cuban citizens for NO FUCKING REASON

If it’s 10:59 and someone is clearly struggling to get stuff out the door to go outside of a store that opens at 11am- maybe trying to barge in past them going “well are you open” isn’t a great move. When they say give me a second maybe don’t respond “oh I guess you aren’t open at 11 then”
Sorry the longer I chew this over the more enraged I am becoming. If they said this to this person- Who else have they told this to? Is it legal to represent neighborhoods while telling prospective investors not to invest in certain neighborhoods because of “the demographics”? HOW UTTERLY DISGUSTING
Someone I know has been talking to Prosper Portland about bringing an exciting concept to Portland. They’d really love for it to be located in N / NE. Prosper Portland told them to their fucking face that they shouldn’t do that because they wouldn’t make money, and should open it elsewhere 1/

🔔 Resurfaced story about Mayor Keith Wilson failing to pay taxes. “Clackamas County issued a warrant in mid-June for $1,130 in unpaid 2023 personal property taxes at Wilson’s TITAN Freight Systems headquarters… records show. The bill was due last November.” www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Made the mistake of checking Nextdoor. First post - white older male talking about the influx of folks needing help with food lately and how that creates “situation fatigue both ways”. Y’all think I kept my mouth shut and scrolled on or… 👀 Bc Sir. WTF is wrong w you.

Oh cool Trump made the same deal w/ Greenland we already had. Thats definitely newsworthy!

$8000 / $8000 raised In 3 days. We saved a home. An Indigenous family will continue to live and laugh and love and cry and grow deeper roots in the land that has been their home for longer than we all have been alive. Thank every single one of you who helped carry this load. This is love.
We just hit $6,500 of our $8000 goal. This will keep a multi-generationally & local Indigenous owned home from the foreclosure block and help stabilize a family that deserves that. There are incredible items for raffle or donations welcome. DM if you’d need info or want cash tags. I love you. ❤️
hey y’all @kentonantiques.bsky.social is helping gather funds for a multi-generation, Indigenous family in Portland to keep their home. They need 8k by tomorrow and are sitting a little above 5k right now. attaching screenshots with the necessary info. please contribute and share.
All these CEOs calling for a halt on AI is probably gonna do wonders for an economy currently propped up by the promise of AI.
Morning breakdown in full send. I was asked w/ the hardest ask yesterday. Someone I know & trust is at immediate risk of losing their multi-gen Indigenous owned home bc of the unknown actions of an adult suffering dementia. There’s a beautiful kiddo involved & I love this person unconditionally. 🧵
There are 5 K through 12 trans athletes. Five. Imagine if Dems said you're worried about five athletes meanwhile millions of people can't afford food... like Al Sayed has. It's a non-issue and should be treated as such. And I'm not trying to deny Democrats a Senate seat. Stop being hysterical
Unsafe only matters if it might pertain to a trans kid, not sports themselves which are inherently unsafe. Got it got it
Landmark study finds 1 in 4 NFL players developed brain trauma
A new study found a high proportion of NFL players develop brain trauma, but it is unclear what this means for youth football players.

It would in fact not be right to let trans girls/boys play on boys'/girls' teams if it was unsafe or unfair. But that is not the case, fortunately.
You’ve gotta use AI because it’s the future. But also it’ll take your job. But also it’ll create a paradise on earth and solve most of our problems. But also it’ll end humanity soon. But also you’ll get left behind if you don’t use it right now.
Hey yall- 46 years ago my mom labored, a lot! So please, take the day off! I insist.
If you aren’t eating Al pastor tacos from that joint that travels around and only pops up in random parking lots after 10pm- are you even living bro?
Yall. New collection of vintage playing cards came in today. And… deceased. Screaming. Lmao.
