that's right folks, it's time again for the pomp, pageantry, and performance of the one and only Portland Adult Soapbox Derby
I'm a part of it. Not separate from it. I walk on the ground and the ground's walked on by me, I breathe the air and change it, I am entirely interconnected with the world.

Here's a radical idea: Autism is natural. It's a variation in the human brain that occurs in some individuals and not it others. It doesn't need to have a cause, it doesn't need to have treatment. It needs accomodation, respect and patience.
I do like it when the cops give step-by-step instructions on how to commit the crime AND get away with it because they have no clue.

If you have ever used any version of the term “intersectionality” referring to the idea of understanding compounded forms of discrimination by examining multiple social categories like race, gender and class simultaneously—you have UCLA’s Dr. Kimberlé Crenshaw to thank. She coined the term in 1989.

Best thing to do would have been to laugh at him. Sorry you are wait… you’re mad I said “fuck”? Get outta here! Oh. Except that might have made him more angry than my outburst. Welp. I hate this.
Aaaand I just realized I’d better move my car. Mmmaybe he wouldn’t be so petty as to vandalize it? But maybe he would? Faaaack
So I’m trying to sell a car. Guy calls me and gave me shit about saying “fuck” during our conversation. I say naw man, we’re done. He CALLS BACK offers me HALF what I’m asking. I say I’m sorry, WUT? Y’all. I’m in estrogen withdrawal because of the national shortage, which already pisses me off.
I know everything feels terrible and doomy but I've been working on surveillance issues for most of my adult life and I have never seen so much energy, momentum, and concrete VICTORIES happening as what we are seeing right now on Flock cameras and facial recognition in venues. Keep. Going.
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but: yeah bad things are happening. They’re going to continue to be tough. All you can do is: take care of yourself. Take care of your family and friends, your home, and, as you have energy, your community. That’s it. Keep it tight. Joy IS resistance.
Fellow BUSTER KEATON fans will enjoy Jim Jarmusch telling the story of how if it hadn’t been for JAMES MASON buying Keaton’s old house in the 1980’s almost every film Buster made would’ve been lost to us forever. Incredible.

The kids who live in the area around the Portland raceway have lower test scores. And they STILL insist on racing cars that use leased gasoline.
Jacqueline Antonovich@jackiantonovich.bsky.social · last wk.My youngest, randomly, "Wait, does unleaded gas mean that there used to be...leaded gas?" Me: "Yup! When I first started driving, they still had leaded gas." Youngest, "How was that even a thing? Are you ok??" Me: "Oh boy, do I have some interesting hypotheses to tell you"
