Hey so it's actually frustrating to have people walking or chilling in the bike lane when there is nothing wrong with the sidewalk

I think the argument to roll over for Dundon is so depressing. Because it's ultimately people saying "you can't call this man's bluff or else we're fucked" Like I really wish people realized that they're advocating to accept that this guy can threaten us
Imagine the amount of propaganda it took to convince millions of people that healthcare, food assistance, social programs, clean water, clean air, good wages, housing, equal rights, diversity, and a healthy planet for all people was somehow a threat to America and to Christianity.
My best friend got an electric bike through the Portland Clean Energy Fund and the ease and joy it’s brought to her life is palpable. Plus, now it’s easier for her to see me 🥹 I love PCEF, it’s such a tangible force for good in Portland.
There's something so insulting about the Moda team having the audacity to just be like "we won't be able to make any plans until you give us SIX HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS" Like they really expected us to swallow that
Getting reaaaaal fed up of that phrase being used as a get out of jail free card.
The attitude of so many in the comments section of the internet* is “it’s all bad, who cares, move on” You don’t look enlightened or elite because of your “knowledge,” you look lazy and sad for not trying. Be a good human. Make good decisions. Learn. Try again tomorrow. *I know
Imagine hating on Portland when we're just screaming at the river or riding naked or playing music in our backyards
The part that's ironic about this whole panty twisting about the "city council daddy" offense is that..... Morillo is just talking like she talks. We literally have record of her talking to Novick and saying EPG is not "our mommy" and no one took offense to that when the context is the same
I know that everyone is talking about Morillo referring to Wilson as "daddy" but can we talk about the queen behavior of Avalos just straight up turning off Smith's mic?
Absolutely wild how cranky some people get about a little plaza on 72nd off of Foster
I went to visit family last week in CA, & something I'm constantly reminded of is the fact that public transpo is vital for effective housing reform. Its not bad to loosen restrictions re: parking structure requirements but doing so in an area that has lackluster transpo causes a bevy of issues
Its always funny to me when people complain about queer people being perverts and then it's almost always the straight white guy that's being exposed for indecency. Like yea I'm a ho but at least all my partners are consenting. Jesus.
There's been a recent street plaza installed in the foster-powell neighborhood and it's very cute! Apparently there's some folks that disagree because they've decided to put signs outside saying "No Plaza!" Which is....odd. I can't imagine being angry at a street plaza in your neighborhood
Just here to post this again like I do every year, not only because Douglass was one of the founding philosophers of American liberty but because I am so moved by the kids Frederick Douglass’ descendants deliver “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July”

Who in the DSA do I talk to about having my band play at events? Begging you to appreciate our old historic Celtic resistance songs.

God bless all the socialist of color that have been winning their primaries God bless all the socialist women who are fighting for a better future God bless the socialist in Montana, purely bc he's my neighbor's son and my neighbor is very proud of him I'm an atheist but my point still stands
Public transportation is the bedrock of a healthy pro social society. The more I talk to people and hear people's stories, the more I believe it.
It must be so hard to be Mamdani. He had THREE victory parties that he needed to attend after his endorsed candidates won. Give that man a vacation( it has to be in NYC because that mf'er never wants to leave)
Hot take: a studio apartment shouldn't have a range of $1100-1400 That's kinda bonkers to me and I think we're really flubbing it.
I bring a type of "matter of factly pointing out you're a dick" energy that a lot of insecure men don't like to be around. I'm choosing to view that as a flex
As someone who works the Renfaire Nothing brings me more joy than seeing the way a child lights up as they hear music. They get so excited and enamored.
If you or someone you know would like to be involved in a study about tactical frivolity. You should talk to my cool professor friend www.instagram.com/p/DZsq60lGXW...

Every time I hear the news talk about the DSA, I become tempted to join emerge and run for political office
Did I say "Land Back" before performing a song during a pub crawl? Yes yes I did Was I paid to perform and help lead a pub crawl during the renfaire? Yes yes I was.
Something fascinating about Portland politics (& by extension how portlanders talk) is this way of talking around a subject and leaving accusations to be implied. Councilor Zimmerman and Pirtle-Guiney are kinda prime examples of this and you can tell they don't know how to handle direct rebuttals
I think the thing that strikes me the most about everything I hear re: Platner really is Wow white men really can do anything.
