Drop an album that was important to you when you were 19. "What do we leave behind when we cross each frontier? Each moment seems split in two; melancholy for what was left behind and the excitement of entering a new land.”

Didn't a bunch of bills die today, @oregoncapitalchronicle.com? Or am I off a few weeks before bills that don't get out of committee. #ORLeg #ORPol

Just waiting for this but with hot dogs 🌭. Glad @councilorgreen.bsky.social is on it!

Highly recommend you sign to show support! My family has been lucky enough to be able to put away for future college and an emergency because of this program.

Decided to take a look at #pdx big pipe. Not sure if it's rain or halftime?!? 🤔

Question of the day...🤔 Do I buy a handheld DVD player and get DVDs from the library instead of getting a subscription to a streaming platform...🤔

Didn't even try to get 40 nations. Just taking the oil 🛢️.

Not talked about enough is the amount of young families at Pioneer Square on a Tuesday as they visit the 🎄. This is how you activate downtown.

Happy to finish my annual giving by donating to reelect Councilor Morillo and Lane. And I gave to Councilor Green a month ago.

Big Pipe Watch 🌬️🌧️🌧️🌧️ currently at 91%

I don't know how I feel about Christmas / Holiday music on the radio this early in the season. Like it started after Halloween!

Really enjoying all the center median on 82nd going in... But do find it silly that they are pouring concrete to look like brick 🧱...

You know it's bad when bad dad joking Novick is coming at ya!

The @wweek GiveGuide starts in November now!?! What!?! Now I have two months to procrastinate giving!!! 🥳

The trail around Crystal Springs and through Reed is always so nice in the autumn 🚶🏻🍂🍃🍂

Got a chance to watch #WhiteLotusLionDance at #WhiteLotusMarket today. Super impressed with their new high pole routine. Clearly #PortlandIsOnFire cause they bringing the heat!

Always kind of irks me that Crystal Lake is bordered on one side with a pay to access park and the other side another pay to access golf course. It's always so pleasant at the Rhododendron garden.

Wow, I look like a really bad Tern advertisement! 😅 Thanks @clevercycles.com!

I love having both the Holgate and Woodstock libraries in my extended walkshed!

Who's got two thumbs 👍🏽 👍🏽and getting a neighborhood greenway 🚴🏻🚴🏼‍♀️🚴🏽🚴🏾‍♂️ in front of his house!?! This guy!!!

Peak Portland day, Bridge Pedal and Thorns v Reign! Not in a place to participate in either, but love it none the less!

"In policy terms, rich people are the wrong focus, Young said, because they aren’t highly mobile. Young people on track to become rich are mobile, he said, and cities should seek to attract them before they put down roots." Amen, Cornell U professor Young

Just finished reading, A Paradise of Small Houses by @maxpodemski.bsky.social . Lovely read. Favorite quote, "... a reminder that cities are not defined by their housing and private realms, but by the public spaces that tie them together." #PDX #Urbanism #Housing

This alone would have made me vote for him, if I lived in NYC 🗽

It has been really fascinating watching in real time the intersection of the administrative state and virality of social media interact. Obscure policy topics and rulemaking in the hyperlocal digital age.

See how P4A is in an impossible position? Spend too fast and you're wasting funds and irresponsible; spend too slow and you're bureaucratic and not creating enough slots to meet the need. It's a lose/lose and the State program isn't a replacement.

To the @pbotinfo.bsky.social employee driving the small sweeper in the bicycle lane on outer Division. I salute you! 🫡 Thank you for your service! 🧹🧹

More and more I wonder if members of the @ordems.bsky.social / @multdems.bsky.social really represent me and my interests. Clearly these Dems don't. PFA has been huge for my family. Working class, modest means, blue through and through but having a long think... #Orleg

I haven't looked at Social Media all day and I see the oligarchy is mad at the oligarchy and the losers will still be the working class.

Behind the Wok features stories from six iconic Chinese restaurants, while artists work to memorialize the former Canton Grill building before redevelopment.

🎶 ⚽ Allez Paris, Allez Paris ⚽ 🎶

Clearly the Comms team didn't talk to the budget team. 😬😶‍🌫️🫥

Son Heung-min winning silverware is long overdue. Couldn't have happened to a better player. Happy for him!

Thanks Joe Biden....You got a lot of nerve.... because of you I got both my tax refund and passport in less than a month! I blame you for all this silent government just doing their job efficiently malarkey.

Not Moshu! 😢

There is something really pleasant after a big rainstorm in the afternoon where the sun is peaking out of the clouds and the birds are chirping. Everything seems so at peace and the rain has washed away the worry.

Consumer Reports warns that Bob's Red Mill cassava, a popular substitute used in gluten-free cooking, contains high lead levels 23 times greater than the maximum allowable daily dose. (Oregonian, 5/9/25, p. A9)

The Portland City Council has soundly rejected a Portland General Electric transmission upgrade project in Forest Park that would have required the utility to clearcut more than 370 trees on about 5 acres in the park.

Both Assembly Brewing and Hammer + Jacks closing today... ☹️ Rich get richer whole small businesses are still getting squeezed. #FoPo #SEP #Portland

Today we honor the flippered citizens of our icy nation. Whether you celebrate whilst eating a democracy sausage in Oz, doomscrolling in America, pulling maple taps in Canada, or elsewhere, we appreciate the support! #worldpenguinday

@caltrain.com just found your new slogan!

And now please tax them in the Willamette Valley...

Hoping that my Councilor @councilormorillo.bsky.social can help on this!

I am a big fan of my Generation 2 @ternbicycles.com GSD, you would be hard pressed to find a better bike from a wonderful company that is sold in an actual bike shop, @clevercycles.com . That is pretty much a trifecta! 🚲 + 🐦 + 🏬🧑‍🔧

Bahahahahah

Exciting! The first big issue project to be appealed to City Council. @councilortiffany.bsky.social @councilormorillo.bsky.social

So excited about this!

A Clackamas County judge ordered the City of Lake Oswego on Monday to end its exclusionary lake use policies and allow public access.

(That's right, when you tap your rewards card, it charges the merchant more! That's where your cash back comes from.)

Excited! And really Prosper should be giving the land up or charging a $1 ground lease for 888 years.
