Only one of these men bankrupted their legacy family farm.

No one on the right is whining about their President failing to unite America The way they relentlessly whined about that to President Obama and President Biden Funny, that.

This doesn’t even capture the full scope of the No Kings protest in Newberg today. The crowd went all the way to the light at Meridian on both branches of the highway, plus plenty of people behind this shot on 99W.

I have my opinions on suburban-dwelling folk migrating to the bigger cities for nationwide protests, but I also completely understand wanting to be apart of something so huge. (She says, knowing if she’d been well at all this year she’d have attended at least one protest in PDX.)

Went to my local protest. Limited myself to standing in one spot, saw a few people I knew. Drove by said protest later, was hollered at by all kinds of people saying hello. Lesson: protests are more fun when you’re mobile.

White people attending these “No Kings” gatherings need to appreciate the fact that Black people are keeping you safe from police, by largely staying in our homes. Black people did not meet and discuss this. Strategic patriotism like this is part of who we are. Always has been. ✊🏽🇺🇸

I'm old enough to remember when Fetterman was the "Progressive" savior. No one seems why so many of these folks become MAGA or MAGA-lite.

Giant protests are great to see...BUT...giant voter turnout percentages in EVERY election are more productive. If you turned out to protest today, please make sure you also get your ballot in this year. If you don't...what was the point of today?

What is confusing about him saying racist bs and blaming rape victims for being raped? Blackwater? Y’all did the same bs with Fetterman, Tulsi, and Sinema. How did that work out? Do you know what makes me furious? I’m furious that here you are (a supposed ally) ignoring all the signs…AGAIN.

bro did you just challenge portland to express oppositional defiance in competitively creative ways bro

Dante becomes an inspirational speaker with his new poem InferYES YOU CAN

area nazis drive into Portland, are defeated by children

To become dependent on ChapGPT is to evacuate yourself from your own life. YIKES, no thanks. I’m gonna be alive inside every damn thing I do, even and especially the ish I don’t wanna do.

I remember the betrayal

If you’re unhappy, look at the stars or that little blinking light where you feed money into a slot machine

Great thread on the distinctive political culture of Portland, by a US historian who is very much from Portland.

I legitimately forgot how hot the Unipiper is, and I even met the guy once.

The rain has soaked through everything. Your socks just sprouted a mushroom. You haven't smelled decent BBQ since your last night in Texas, before mustering. Suddenly, a metallic creak echoes through the fog. They were coming again. The naked cyclists. "Just four weeks a year," you mutter.

At some point people started conflating “contrarian” with “smart.”

You know what’s fantastic? Walking up the stairs. Seriously an underrated activity.

Dude. There’s a chance the World Series could consist of teams who’ve never won a World Series.

Most white people simply cannot grasp that AAVE is a separate language, not “broken” English. This is partly due to AAVE’s more-complex, stricter governing rules—which were originally curated to confuse white people; Black people acquire these rules naturally. [I’m Black with a Linguistics degree]

I decided to start posting NSFW content: Oil spilled on the floor! Opened containers of hazardous materials! Operating a forklift without certification or training! Ladders overloaded beyond their maximum intended load! Sides and edges of platforms unprotected by barriers! No helmets! Acid!

If the Mariners ever win the World Series, Seattle fans are going to be loud enough to accidentally set off the Cascadia fault zone

Fuck everybody in this world. I only talk to babies and children under 10 from here on out.

I called 911 last week while I was having some sort of medical issue. I think if I’d had to yell “SPEAK TO A REAL PERSON” at any point I’d have simply chosen to die on the spot.

People do really underestimate what a privilege having an able body is.

from a purely economic standpoint, thats a 46% return on investment. literally wasting money by not doing it!!!

Give me a Toronto/Seattle ALCS and baseball will have my forgiveness

If you're reading this, congratulations on the home run that you (yes, YOU) just hit for the Toronto Blue Jays

Leave me the hell out of this. The kids are fine. I don’t agree with the broccoli cut but we had Bieber bangs, so I own the glass house. The kids are fine

He’s not wrong! Anyone who has a brain and knows how to use it; knew in 2015/16 he was a monster! When I researched him in 2015, I had found multiple sexual assault & harassment allegations going back to the 70s. He paid off several of his victims families. If he was innocent he would have sued!

FDR had a supermajority all 12 years. Vote for a Democratic Congress.

The chimpanzees are wearing black armbands to commemorate the passing of Jane Goodall. The anteaters are wearing bedazzled jeans because they have terrible fashion sense.

imagine flying halfway around the world for a meeting that could’ve been an email and some guy with a hangover is just shouting at you that it’s against the rules to be fat or gay

Do I have thoughts on the Mormon church shooting: oh yep Am I keeping it to myself until we actually know what happened because going off half-cocked is no way to live a life: also yes This is so good. Everyone should try it at least once

Streets need a Mariners/Brewers World Series

It’s literally been half my kid’s life since the last time the Braves ended their season in September. Sigh. Just call me a Mariners fan for the rest of baseball season.

And remember, the reason he wanted separate vaccines wasn't due to any science, but because *he'd filed a patent application for a single measles vaccine*. It was just grifting.

My old neighbor talked about how hard school in the 1930s and 40s was for him, an ADHDer, and how he got paddled A LOT by his teachers. But sure, ADHD is super new. 🙄

Trump’s inability to pronounce “acetaminophen” raises new questions about Joe Biden’s mental state.

Yeah Cassidy could have called it out as utter horseshit. Nope- this word salad of prove it after millions suck up this disinformation from a junkie and a sexual felon

The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years. Pinochet was ousted with a referendum. And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists. Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.

Bill Cassidy must be so fucking pleased with himself for caving like a little bitch coward to Mango Mussolini, thus allowing Brain Worm McGee to change vaccine guidance, just like we all fucking knew he would.

whoever opened pandora's box of stupid can you like shut it

Guy who funded negative ad campaigns against Kamala Harris in 2010 to try to preemptively kill her career specifically beyond everything he actually did as an official prior to that has regrets for the party he rabidly contributed to reaching this point.
