Saw a chihuahua prancing outta the Hollywood Fred Meyer carrying a Slim Jim in his mouth like a *boss*
Gotta say that as far as summer weather days go - today’s about a 9.5/10
I was told this building needs 600 million dollars in renovations
The pro- Sophie Cunningham/anti trans protest outside the Moda Center. They are sad group claiming they are protesting for feminism. BUT where there's a fascist protest, there's a clear minded frog. #PortlandFire
Tonight it’s time for the Moda Center to boo this sad bench grifter right outta town
Denny Carter@dennycarter.bsky.social · 6d agoMy guy @caemeroncc.bsky.social blogged his ass off about the bone-rattling bad faith underlying the right's attack on trans athletes. That includes, most recently, WNBA player and MAGA influencer Sophie Cunningham. badfaithtimes.com/trans-sports...
Interesting to watch the Blazers adopt the “This City is a Shithole” strategy of the business community as the Timbers, Thorns, Fire and Pickles/Cheery Bombs/Bangers manage to do what an NBA franchise says it can’t.
if sophie cunningham truly cared about protecting women in sports she would stop playing them. be the change you want to see in the world you cheapshotting dimwit
City Council should not play these stupid games. You tell the Blazers that if they fail to share details there is no vote, plain and simple. What an embarrassing move from the Blazers. If the city capitulates yet again they are showing they have ZERO spine and can be walked all over.
Had the great pleasure to see one of my D3 council representatives in Portland @councilortkl.bsky.social riding the 15 bus with the rest of us today. A council member who genuinely supports mass transit is a council member who gets what it takes to creative a thriving urban community. Thank you!
I’m at a puppy pool party at The Vern and it’s incredibly wholesome and also occasionally hilarious
Bragging about saving 30 jobs when you had the chance to save 103 and didn’t do that. Then you had a chance to save 40 jobs, but it became 55 & added funds for police training. You didn’t do that either though. So now, you saved 30 jobs and funded police training. But hey, we can write 73 contracts.
Councilor Zimmerman@councilorzimmerman.bsky.social · 2w agoThis week, we restored 30 full-time City positions, most of them union-represented, protected our core city services, and reversed cuts to critical public safety programs across Portland.
One of the bright spots for our long-term future is recognizing the limitations of those currently in charge. And in every corner of the current regime there are some *exceedingly* incompetent mfers
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2w agoJACOBS: Are Americans better off when they're paying $3 a gallon nationally for gas or $4 a gallon? WALTZ: Americans are better off not paying the highs of over $5 under the last administration J: That happened for 2 weeks during the Ukraine war. It's been over $4 for more than 3 months this year

Jarrett Walker@humantransit.bsky.social · 2w agoPortland: everyone who is seriously thinking of using our CLEAN ENERGY FUND to bribe our basketball team to not leave town needs to know that our transit agency is on track to cut nearly 1/3 of its service from what it was in 2025. Which is the greater crisis?

I'm not sure granting anonymity to let the Blazers management have better bargaining positions is really in line with best journalism practices.
The Oregonian@oregonian.com · 2w agoThe team official’s rebuke could be seen as an effort to push city leaders forward on the existing proposal. https://mrf.lu/2TgrB

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 2w agoThe Trump administration issued a report alleging that a multi-decade Cuban influence campaign in the U.S. has had “remarkable success” in infiltrating the government, backing “left-wing terrorism on American soil” and turning “America against itself.”
