A tribute to one of my favorites. www.mixcloud.com/freebeef/fre...

Didn’t follow any of the established process. This is insane.

Amidst all of this [waves arms around], tonight is the opening game for the Trailblazers, so there’s that. www.mixcloud.com/freebeef/fre...

Good god, what a loss. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOnd...

Welcome back to town, college kids! www.mixcloud.com/freebeef/fre...

New @pile.bsky.social album just dropped, and per usual it is incredible.

Dang, I wonder if Portland even tried to keep Jabari. Solid NBA player and likable guy. Weird that he’d jump on a 2-way. Though he gets to reunite with Watford (another guy whose departure was confusing).

Genuinely curious why Portland dude Marcus McCauley didn't really blow up after his very excellent 2020 album (and music vids) -- and also what he's been up to since. youtube.com/@moodycouch?...

Today I have listened to SO MUCH Rayon Base music and I am so perplexed and amazed by it all. What an odd, unsettling, yet sort of lovely? world this man has created. youtu.be/JlVNaou7ze8?...

I’m more of a Corvallis guy, but I won’t judge

Free Beef Ep. 7: Loud www.mixcloud.com/freebeef/fre...

2 of my favorites are touring *together*, heck yeah! Got my ticket.

Groundbreaking today.

Hahahaha, he really didn’t do even the least amount of research into this albatross of a bribe.

Good.

Shameless plug to distract from *waves hands around*: I started a music show on @korcfm.bsky.social, Thurs nights at 7 with an encore Fri nights at midnight. Also going up at mixcloud.com/freebeef. I'm 6 eps in and it has been super fun. Latest one features the guitar magic of @kph.bsky.social!

America needs the return of the functional front porch as a default component of low/medium density residential architecture. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Sickening.

After the Trump Gaza video I’m pretty convinced that nothing online matters anymore.

As a dad of 3 kids under 13, this is terrifying.

We’re on vacation just south of Jacksonville FL and…are funnel clouds on otherwise placid days a common occurrence ‘round these parts? There are no storms around and it disappeared quickly. Just curious!

Unfortunately @lizzyacker.bsky.social light rail won’t work in Corvallis until the population density doubles, or more.

Huh! A lot of people are going to lose their minds today, but I don’t hate it. He’s not the best Xs and Os guy (though he’s improved) but despite everything he likes it here and players love playing for him and I think those are both super under appreciated attributes so hey, why not.

This aired nearly 14 years ago and I still think about it all the time. It's perfect. youtu.be/hOrA9-2xnGY?...

Woah.

Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

I re-watched Where The Wild Things Are for the first time since it was in theaters and it truly might be a perfect movie? youtu.be/gD2vyaFwj1E?...

What a life.

Great job, America. At least maybe hotels and Airbnbs will be less expensive for domestic travelers this summer? 😕

Another excellent Lonnie Holley album dropped today… lonnieholley.bandcamp.com/album/tonky

So tech bros are trying to reframe Culdesac, a car-free neighborhood in Arizona, as a parallel society that helps justify their techno-fascist dismantling of civil society. Wild.

No worries, Trump’s gonna turn on the valves.

30 years, sheesh. I’m getting old.

Anyone in Oregon have this on their radar? According to the article, one of these could be outside of Redmond. Bleak stuff.

Through it all, I’ve really enjoyed the new Hamilton Leithauser album today. Multiple spins.

Michelle Wu is the latest in a long run of good or very good Boston mayors.

After Green interrupted last night, another Democrat should have done the same thing. And then another, until all of them had to be removed. Delay the speech by a few hours. Or walk out en masse. Anything. Calling Trump an existential threat means nothing if you can’t meet the fucking moment.

Reading Calvin & Hobbes to the kids. This one feels ironic.

Just when you think Trump's trade wars can't get stupider: We're threatening (more) lumber tariffs, this time on supposed "national security" grounds. Hope you weren't hoping to build more houses anytime soon

THANK YOU, UNIONS!

Bad Sisters on Apple is such a great show.

I feel so bad for Newberg parents, still dealing with the fallout of the 2021 MAGA school board takeover. Pay attention to your local races, folks.

Oregon’s own!

Corvallis, imagine a planning effort like this for 9th Street.

I’m the dairy farmer running to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District. Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

Sunday morning crepe-making soundtrack: Groove Denied (Malkmus). youtu.be/YlC8uz47qGo?...

I think about this every time I see “DOGE” in the media. It’s not an actual thing!

No idea how or why but Jason Benetti, who normally does Detroit Tigers games, has filled in as the Blazers TV announcer a few times this season and he's been so great. Love Calabro, but if he's prepping to retire and they're auditioning replacements, lock in Benetti. Lamar seems to like him too.

This is VERY exciting, and I really look forward to seeing what Cambridge’s housing production numbers look like in a couple of years (after the market adjusts).
