Portland declares ICE facility out of compliance, demands its clearance. www.portland.gov/mayor/keith-...

#Portland: This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco…this ain’t no fooling around. You are going to want to remember where you were during the #BattleOfPortlandia …or at least in front of which food cart you parked your bike. #NeverForget

Reporting from the dangerous front lines of #warravagedportland There’s goat cheese, heirloom tomatoes and craft sausage. I may not make it out. Tell my kids I love them.

That cat is a suicide bomber. You can tell by his expression: very determined.

As a former Portlander myself, love that its motto is Keep Portland Weird. An essential part of fascism's project is to tell all of us how to look, whom to love, what to say, how to dress. Fuck that. Portland is too fabulous for fascism.

"War-ravaged" Portland today... #WarRavagedPortland

Portland: Don’t take the bait. Don’t be the spark he wants. Stand up in mass to show you do NOT consent to occupation. But be peaceful, be united, be creative - make their presence awkward, unwelcome, & weird. Portland you are uniquely qualified to handle this! Make the rest of us proud ✊🏼#3E

Really important to internalize that the president of the United States is ordering troops into major population centers precisely to create violent confrontations, for the sole purpose of intimidating, criminalizing and disabling opposition

Jurassic Otter Point Formation, a classic subduction melange. Includes substantial blocks of blueschist, notably in quarried blocks of Bandon's south jetty. ⚒️

I was just here last Wednesday. Nice, as always.

BREAKING: Florida cop treated for autism after exposure to tylenol during traffic stop

Both of these quotes are from the past week and, ya know what, I think he might actually be on to something, guys.

Yesterday was the autumn equinox, but Thursday will be the first day with less than 12 hours of daylight (due to atmospheric refraction).

In eight states, including Oregon, the number of people buying subsidized insurance from the marketplace would drop by at least half.

Pecan pie causes autism. Please send your pecan pies to me to be disposed of safely.

I used to live just a stone’s throw away from a family who all mysteriously died of head injuries.

Proctology is located in A55

Off to Mt St Helens today, probably an overnighter. My sister and BIL have never been. We're all old and while it's only 3 1/2 hours drive 1-way, 7 hours driving in a day is likely more than we want to cope with. Can't find my camera charger, so no photos.

Expertise is necessarily narrow, thus one’s intellectual humility must be broad.

Part of me wants to blame the curators of "the English canon," who tend to look down their noses at genre novels. More science fiction and fantasy should be taught in schools Fantasy/sci-fi is about grappling with bizarre hypotheticals, a skill that is only getting more useful as reality weirds

"The man who shot Charlie Kirk was a conservative white man from Utah. But the fact that we assumed it was a transgender Mexican demonstrates how out of control Leftist rhetoric has gotten." Tomorrow in the Washington Post

Now that the shooter has been ID'd as one of their own, they'll circular file the memory of CK's murder. Everyone knows the bullets ONLY come from the left. 🙄🙄

RIGHT NOW ON FOX NEWS: OUR PANEL DISCUSSES WHICH MINORITY GROUP THEY WISH THE SHOOTER WOULD HAVE BEEN A PART OF

BREAKING: I understand from our sources that Mount St. Helens is not, repeat, NOT, erupting right now.

Update: Civil War cancelled due to shooter being demographically uncooperative

‘Booty’ and ‘butt’ are synonyms. ‘Call’ and ‘dial’ are synonyms. But, a ‘booty call’ and a ‘butt dial’ are VERY different things.

It's Popper's "Paradox of Tolerance." Basically, you cannot be tolerant of intolerance. Tolerating it allows it to run unchecked and rampant.

The problem I'm having with our "political violence" discourse is the ongoing refusal to recognize rhetoric as violent when it doesn't outright call for specific violent acts, while even a casual critical listener can hear the constant manufacturing of consent for physical violence in it.

Charlie Kirk was a man so deeply committed to freedom of speech and enlightened, reasonable debate that you are not allowed to quote anything he said ever again.

Stephen Jay Gould was born OTD in 1941. “Organisms are not billiard balls, propelled by simple and measurable external forces to predictable new positions on life's pool table.... Organisms have a history that constrains their future in myriad, subtle ways.” 🦫🦋🐋🌱🧠🗃️🧪#HistSTM #PhilSci #EvoBio

Today, a student asked how the Boston Massacre could have been a big deal as it was a shooting where only 5 people died. Then I opened my phone to see there was another school shooting & the shooting of a right wing political figure. You can see why students would struggle to see the importance. 🗃️

OK, hear me out: Hobbits' short statures and tolerance of enclosed spaces would make them ideal astronauts Elvish craftsmanship would make excellent spaceships Dwarves love tunneling, mining, and living underground. They're perfect for Mars colonization

In these troubled times, we deserve a Tolkien version of The Expanse

I didn't have "Charlie Kirk shot and killed" on my Bingo Card today. OTOH, I have "School kids shot" on my card every day. It's basically a free space.
