Hany just wants to get some jackets

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Kavanaugh stop. Smashed the kid’s car windows and arrested him. He told them he was a U.S. citizen. The officer replied “I don’t care.” www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

Please help out Miran, Mohammed, and their two beautiful children. They are trying to build their lives back up and are only halfway to their current goal.

This river runner is the antidote to tonight

Is there something about having a "zz" in your name that explains all this?

I love paywalls now.

I think the news needs to go to bed already, this is getting to be too much.

Someone do a wellness check on JD Vance and maybe take him to Pottery Barn’s annual couch sale

Fundraisers warn of ‘catastrophic’ drop in donations to Gaza since ceasefire

Zohran Mamdani doesn’t make me, an American Jew, feel unsafe. Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

I’m howling.

People are facing down masked men with GUNS in their cul de sacs while wearing sweats and flip flops. USians are in the streets.

It's telling how many people are mispronouncing a council member's name tonight

We can have "build-up" actions at the same time as pushing for "tear-down" actions. Building is, traditionally, harder.

now the lefties on city council are being called Nazis by these testifiers. Getting called Nazis by Dan Ryan and FRSO in the span of two days.

Making a first drop in a little free library.

The backbone of this is to push for a way to hold the center responsible for the harm they create in the neighborhood they are in.

Portland City Council is meeting right now. They are currently introducing an ordinance to impose an impact fee onto the ICE building, and any other detention facilities in the city.

Portland needs to stop electing this Mild Mannered Upper Class White Man for everything. Dan Ryan is Keith Wilson is Ted Wheeler is Charlie Hale (remember him?) is Dan Saltzman is Sam Adam's , ad nauseum.

This is one of my favorite comics stores in the entire country, and due to the pandemic and some other issues, it is asking for a bit of help. I hope you go look and spread the word, donate a little bit (or a lot) if you can. I'm going to donate some in the morning, hope you will consider it, too.

Books with Pictures truly is a wonderful community spot. Let's keep it!!!

The AI bubble may be about to bust. Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock. We all need to say this very clearly: NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH! Expropriate their asses instead. They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet. They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

This coming Tue, Nov. 18th from 6:00pm - 7:30pm, the City of Portland will be hosting an in person Portland Street Response Town Hall at the East Portland Community Center (740 SE 106th Ave) We encourage PSR supporters to show up - learn more about PSR's status, ask questions, and express concerns.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

If you can help get some blankets

Lots of media attention goes to the quirky bits Portlanders do as (effective) acts of protest. Less mainstream attention to the history of militia groups harassing and assaulting protesters in Portland for years now.

In 2022, I commissioned @mollycrabapple.bsky.social to make a portrait of @sfdirewolf.bsky.social, as part of a series for the release of The Viral Underclass. Molly signed if for her. Alice was so excited to have a Molly Crabapple of herself!

Notable that the 5 states w/the highest population of Catholics are NOT on this list.

I usually share a new Palestinian account every day but today I am going to do a thread of people I’ve already verified impacted by the recent flooding in Gaza. If you can help any of these families- many who lost everything again- please do. edition.cnn.com/2025/11/14/m...

BlueSky could have shared a screenshot of my tweet showing the Oct 10 timestamp and that I was using Johnny Cash lyrics to quote-tweet about an article on Johnny Cash. Instead, they made it look like I issued a random death threat and falsely claimed I posted it this week. They should apologize.

Nurse Hammam’s account was deleted but he’s still trying to prepare for the Gaza winter. Today came rain and his tent is flooding. www.paypal.com/paypalme/nur...

The 300-mile B2H transmission project was approved to benefit hundreds of thousands of Oregon residents but will now will likely serve a data center

A Texas-based company has posted a job listing for detention officers in Newport. It's the latest sign the federal government wants to set up an ICE facility on the Oregon Coast.

NEW: The US has deported a longtime Oregon firefighter who was arrested by Border Patrol while deployed at a major wildfire in Washington state. José Bertin Cruz-Estrada, separated from his family, is speaking out from Mexico for the first time: “I feel betrayed ... What am I going to do now?"

After José's arrest sparked outrage in August, DHS attacked him in a press release, calling him a "criminal illegal alien, not a firefighter." DHS has cited a 12-year-old drug delivery charge while failing to acknowledge the charge was dismissed. Full @us.theguardian.com interview and story here:

They literally laughed about not picking up phones to stop a genocide and y’all thought they would stop your own?

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart. If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

Every Italian American in office is about to get slammed with phone calls by all their relatives, especially nonna and mom, then yelled at in personat thanksgiving by aunts, uncles and cousins.

And now, if you read the devastating piece about what Venezuelan deportees endured at the El Salvador torture prison, read what incarcerated U.S. citizens endure in Alabama prisons. State prisons in the U.S. that are massive systems of human rights violations. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/oc...

Sakher is looking for help to get a scholarship outside of Gaza- if you know any universities or groups offering this to students please message him ❤️

Good morning! AI is being force-fed to you by a handful of billionaires who will lose a bunch of money if they fail to convince you that you need it. You do not need it 🫶

We just got a huge win for Oregonians - and a check on the president's power: we received a ruling preventing the president from deploying the National Guard on the streets of our cities. No one - not even the president - is above the law.
