Wow. This piece of work is an anesthesiologist. Looks like he is affiliated with Providence in Portland .....

I am proud to say I think NPR was very early in getting this story reported out and talking to Nazgûl’s humans? In any event, great job everyone.

Central Oregon friends, BOLO!! Humane Society says its disaster response trailer stolen from Bend on Valentine's Day www.centraloregondaily.com/news/local/h...

Before heading down the coast we stopped for coffee at Warehouse Coffee and the corgs were very patient for the paparazzi.

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon. Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

More photos from yesterday’s adventure to the Redwoods and back.

This is clearly their Album Cover. Help me name it…

If you’re ever in Bandon…do yourself a favor and go to Bandon Rain for cider. (Pictured- Cranberry Squall, Cranberry-Pineapple, Just Peach and Apple Pie).

Happy Birthday, Oregon! "She flies with her own wings"

Don't mind me, I'm just going to go sit and stare at the wall for a few hours while my brain attempts to assimilate this crucial new information

This interaction on reddit just legit made me giggle uncontrollably.

Damn…I just love the ocean so much.

It was a lovely evening at Face Rock. Do you see it?

When I say put all rapists in the bin…I mean it. Having a strong stance against rape is not “intellectually lazy” I would not trust this person further than I can throw them…

The campground we’re at this week has a roving flock of turkeys. Sound on for the gobble gobble at the end.

my birthday was last week and if you didn't get me anything and you have stupid money you should give a donation to or become a member of the botanical garden in my disenfranchised neighborhood, they're in real financial trouble and need help www.leachgarden.org

Finally got to see the ocean today. Honestly, besides most of youpeople not being there- the only real problem I have with Bend is the ocean being so far away.

Tonight I am thankful for past me putting an air tag on my RV keys.

This seems like it would a fun job for someone with the right chops!

A bunch of garbage trolls are trying to call me racist for calling out the Joe and the Ho branding on the Bend reddit…that’s not how this works.

The 17-acre Leach Botanical Garden in far southeast Portland says it will close if it doesn't get more funding soon. The public park is owned by the city, but managed by a nonprofit. The city hasn't provided funding since last year. www.opb.org/article/2026...

Listening to a podcast and there’s a MeUndies ad, “For couples and friends” I’m sorry…who is buying their friends matching novelty underwear?

I just saw Curling and was reminded of the time we all did TA Curling at evergreen. That was a good time.

Y’all every buy something that’s relatively inexpensive but makes a big difference? Meet my new favorite water bottle- it has a lock so it won’t leak, the choice between a straw or pouring without making a mess and it holds 32oz of water. It’s the little things.

I have questions…

Y’all…moisture has been against me all day. Somehow my charger in my car got wet and shut off the lightning port on my phone until it dried out. And then when I hooked my trailer up in the pouring rain it caused a serious fault and turned off all my outlets (and my GFCI gave up the ghost).

In December, I told you about how Trump’s Department of Education is stripping nurses of our professional status and making school more expensive. From now until March 2, we need you to raise your voice and submit a public comment: www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

TIL: The CO2 meter and ignition for my RV are connected to the battery. Also, said battery is not holding a charge. It’s best to learn this before deciding to camp in a spot without power. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Today’s mission: Find power and a campground with a bit less rain.

The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.

This is the correct answer.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

little item for the Senate Dems to ponder: which of the reforms you’re currently floating is going to stop this?

Update: In the past week we've learned ICE has secured property to build human warehouses in Merrimack, NH and Williamsport, MD *as well as* Surprise, AZ; Upper Bern, PA; and Tremont, PA. Facts that bear repeating.

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

ICE tear gassed a bunch of children on Saturday. This was a massive escalation of force. They were shooting tear gas at the back of the crowd, it took these unmasked people maybe 3-5 minutes in the cloud of tear gas to escape in without trampling. www.theverge.com/policy/87278...

Whoopsie!

People who may want to have children in the future should bear this in mind: tear gas can have serious consequences for female reproductive health. The data on this isn't great but I would at least recommend ensuring you have a quality respirator or mask on at all times.

at the ICE protest tonight in Portland, after we all got gassed, I found what I thought was a zippo pouch. It is in fact a medicine bag, in the indigenous use of the term. I only opened it enough to find that out. If you know who belongs to this let me know and I can get it back to them.

If your children got tear gassed today I want to hear from you, even if you don’t live in my district. You can contact my office at [email protected]

If you have stories/photos/video from the Portland, OR protest that you’d like to share anonymously, I’m marisakabas.04 on Signal.

I join my City Councilors in calling for prosecution of ICE for this flagrant violation of city and state law. This is illegal, and if ICE does this to families and children on a sunny peaceful daytime protest, I shudder to think what they do without that kind of daylight and public scrutiny.

If you were tear-gassed at the union march in Portland today If you have evidence or testimony, NLG is asking that you submit it to them [email protected]

OMG. IT’s WOSO!!! www.reddit.com/r/TedLasso/s...

I want to wake up like Michael Caine and look out my window and see a muppet, and I’ll shout “you there boy! What’s today!” and the muppet will respond “today’s the day!” and I’ll rejoice because I haven’t missed the day. That’s how I want to find out.

I don’t know if any of y’all do Peloton. But if you do they posted a 10 Minute Meditation today that was so good for the moment we’re in.

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jewish people murdered by the Nazis, as well as countless other victims. We honor their lives by rejecting the evils of antisemitism, dehumanization, and authoritarian violence wherever they appear. Never again means never again for anyone.

A good time to repost this about Ilhan Omar 💕
