Yesterday, WIRED learned that Madison Square Garden was suing us for our accurate reporting. We stand by our work. That’s why we’re removing the paywall from two of the MSG stories they don’t want you to read, making them free for everyone.

At the Portland City Council's Lloyd Center hearing, a person requests to go over time, goes about 20 seconds over time before mic is cut off, stands up and starts signing "Big Yellow Taxi," is escorted by security from council chambers.

The only downside about second hand shopping is that you see the burger sandals, you want the burger sandals, but the burger sandals aren't in your size.

it's been a few hours since i've bugged anyone about this, but it's the first day of @weareravenous.com and we'd love it if you stopped by, read some of our work, and of course, become a paid subscriber

This Oregon winter was tied for the warmest in records that date back to the 1890s and produced the smallest amount of snow ever recorded. So what will that mean for summer? Spent a lot of time on that last week looking at impact on: water, wildfire, wildlife, forest health tinyurl.com/584sd6vw

Sur La Table is reentering Oregon with a store at Bridgeport Village (where they previously had a store until their 2020 bankruptcy) www.bridgeport-village.com/opening-soon I remain convinced they should be recruited back to central Portland as well, perhaps near the James Beard Public Market.

Someone should work on recruiting Sur La Table to a Downtown Portland location near the forthcoming James Beard Public. They closed all their Oregon locations as part of their 2020 bankruptcy, but are now opening stores again in markets they exited.

"Fugardi said that male supremacist beliefs are often overlooked in media coverage. 'There is a degree to which misogyny is not considered extremism...It is just like a normal baseline. … Sometimes that blinds us, maybe, to seeing the radicalization pathways.'" by @leahsottile.bsky.social

HR 7661, the Federal book banning bill, is unfortunately still alive. Please call your reps and say NO ON HR 7661! You can read the bill's full text here and see if your Congressperson is one of the 19 co-sponsors: www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

Phone calls to reps are still the best way for citizens to influence legislation. If you've avoided the phone thus far, use this tool from @everylibrary.bsky.social to help oppose H.R. 7661. If you do that today, you can take the rest of the weekend off! :)

Welp, I am no longer the editor in chief of Portland Monthly. Hour Media has acquired SagaCity, and several editorial employees have been laid off. I feel so, so proud of the work we’ve done over the last (almost) two years—please continue to support the super talented people who are still there.
